grilled cheese sandwiches
Read on a slow news day a while back that this is one of the least economical foods people regularly make.
is it because of the cost of cheese?
Perhaps because one's turning the grill on just to make a couple of sandwiches, and that probably uses shitloads of electricity.
Btw, fasting is for pussies. Go breatharian or go home.

As a matter of fact you can and do grow figs in the UK. Dried figs are nice, but nothing beats fresh, ripe fig straight from the tree...

how could you have gone through life for at least 18 years in the UK and not heard of a fig or a fig roll?
do they not sell them in cow vintage or something?

I actually worked on an organic fig farm in Greece last year We had 3 different varieties on tap! Also turns out the type I bought at my local shop (Evia Star) came from the same fucking area of all places... got to process our shit in the same factory and all The dog was a monster, fucking eye to eye with it sitting in a 4 by fucking 4

My friend moved to a small village in the mountains of northern Italy, I went to visit him last year's September. We went for a long walk in the area - there was a wild fig tree everywhere you looked. Needless to say, I had to try a fruit from every tree we've passed. Each of them tasted differently! There were two main types, the purple and green ones (no idea about the proper names!), but because trees were wild, they still varied in between. By the end of the day, I must have eaten +/- 50 figs for sure...
Just to kill it in the end it's turned out his neighbour had a massive kaki/sharon/persimmon fruit tree! I had no idea you can grow that in Europe!
We've got a big Greek/Turkish supermarket here, wonder where the figs come from?
