Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

So many highlights. Sewer cities, nob thatchers, halibut hats. Well worth your time.

Very interesting. Nowadays, it's the Ryanair passenger who favours the commodious pocket. Greasy velveteen optional.

I think that the aficionado might have issue with their "vegan" status. Although, I suppose that the precise type of gravy is not specified.

I remember Jasper Carrot’s old riff. “On ethical grounds I never eat anything that was once part of an animal, so today I’m having a Big Mac”.

If your rule is "never eat anything which has eyes" - no potatoes. 🥔

Will you be including vegetables, either individually or en masse? Or will it all be tofu Vs Quorn* Vs vegan cheese etc

*only some Quorn.

I often make notes when reading of things that I'd like to come back to later on, perhaps to su...

Hummus recipe:

Proper hummus is served with a drizzle of olive oil, rather than oil being a significant ingredient in its own right. This is what should go in it:

• 1½ cups cooked chickpeas or 1 (15-ounce) canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed*
• 3 tablespoons tahini
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove, mashed
• ¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
• Approximately 2-4 tablespoons room-temperature water or aquafaba, or more if needed
• Optional garnishes: extra virgin olive oil, sumac or paprika, finely chopped parsley or other herbs, whole chickpeas

This particular recipe from thymeandtoast.com but it’s typical of the Middle Eastern way of making it.
