Maybe not milkshakes and puddings, but if you move to a new GP and tell them it's dermatitis herpetiformis you'll be able to get biscuits and pasta

Empress Zhark Jul 2014 2:53pm, 3 Jul 2014 70 posts	Quote Pin Empress Zhark That in an office of about 30 people there are at least 7 different kinds of milk in the fridge. There’s the UHT milk paid for by the company which barely anyone uses. Then there’s at least 2 bottles of semi-skimmed milk, for people who don’t want UHT milk. There’s a bottle of blue-topped full fat milk for those who don’t like semi-skimmed. There’s red-topped skimmed milk for some who are on the 5:2 diet (because the 4 calorie saving in your tea is that important). There’s an orange topped milk and a purple topped milk which I think are 1%/0.1% fat. Then there’s the Tupperware canister labelled “breast milk” even though it isn’t, it’s just someone not wanting anyone else to steal her milk. So whenever you try to make a cup of tea for people, one person wants the orange milk, one person wants the blue milk, you have to check with someone else if they’re on a 500 calorie day to see if they want the green milk or the red milk, one person wants green milk but make sure to use her bottle of green milk because Tracey in HR accused him of stealing her milk last week.. nightmare. Quite frankly, I just pick one of the bottles of milk and use that for all the cups of tea I make that round. No one seems to be able to tell the difference. At least, they’ve never mentioned it.
