Ah, but you don't eat bacon.

I ate bacon until I was 19, but still I would never have put brown sauce on it.  :-\

:lol:

Brown sauce on a bacon sarnie is a must. It's certainly not a crime.

Brown sauce was outlawed it 2139 on finding its chemical compound being the same addictiveness as crack-cocaine, creep! 30 years! Intent to supply!

My greatest fear is that one day I will put brown sauce on something, mistakenly thinking it's BBQ sauce.

Don't use brown sauce except on a fry up or a shepherd's pie. The shepherd's pie thing I just discovered last week but it was a total I'VE BEEN EATING THIS WRONG FOR YEARS moment.

Congratulations Keef! It's a taste sensation, no?

I feel sorry for those who have no love for brown sauce. The best thing to have it with is the formidable Vegetable Roll (which only seems to exist in NE Emerald Isle - or am I wrong? It's sausage meat with veg in for those who don't know). Bellissimo!

See, a bottle of BBQ sauce for everyday condimentation I don't get the appeal of. And that it's always a sauce option in pubs and stuff - for non barbequed food.

Rose wine. Strictly speaking, I do understand the appeal because people are lame like that. Sparkling Rose just tastes like gross pop.



Bellowing which university you went to via the medium of sweatshirt and/or t-shirt. Today I saw some small child wearing a jumper which had "OXFORD UNIVERSITY" on it. Now it's possible she will enact her 60%-polyester-ordained destiny, but it's sadly just as likely she'll be majoring in taking psychiatric drugs. 

I think Oxford University TShirts are sold to tourists in shops like the way you can buy a Yale University T Shirt.It kind of cheapens the whole thing and i am surprised that Oxford allow it.Of course anyone who has actually been to Oxford wont usually advertise it but thats from my own experience* as their friends and employer or whatever knows about it but thats all.

Brown sauce has to be Daddies as none of the others that i have tried are any good except for M+S.HP is no good anymore as it has the wrong taste and texture and its too sweet tasting and not spicy enough.Try LeviRoots Reggae Reggae Jerk sauce as its the best brown sauce i have ever tasted.

*That sounds like i have been to Oxford which i havent :lol: but i know others who did.

To put any kind of sauce on bacon should be made a crime.
To cook a steak beyond medium should also be a crime, and medium is pushing it.

A smidgen of mango chutney is lovely on a bacon butty.

Me, I don't see the appeal of Milton Keynes (except for Roger and his mum of course!). Spent the day there today and it seems to be an entire city modelled on an out-of-town industrial estate. Horrible soulless wasteland, apart form the odd bit that used to be an isolated village before being swallowed up by the unrelenting gridwork of characterless boulevards.

The Milton Keynes Bowl is great for concerts. Went to an OZ FEST quite a few years ago and it is set out perfect for an open air gig.

This is true. One of my very first big gigs was at the MK bowl - a one-off reunion of Genesis and Peter Gabriel back in '82, supported by John Martyn among others. Pissed down for 8 hours, but a grand day! Even the coach driver got lost amongst all those roundabouts though.

I am currently eating some that were bought by accident. Alot of effort is being wasted on these grapes.

I'm particularly fond of brown sauce on potatoes, boiled and baked. (Strangely, I went years without it on my food at all though). For chips I tend to go for the ol' salt and vinegar though. Strangely, I've never had it on Shepherd's Pie though. I think part of the reason is I often have shepherd's pie with a cheese on top. (Thinking about it, brown pickle goes with cheese so there's no reason brown sauce shouldn't.)

I'm also fond of brown sauce on pies and pastries. (The savoury kind obviously.)

As for a bacon sarny, brown sauce would work very well. I tend to go for English mustard though.

Brown sauce on mum's stew and dumplings. What could be finer? Nom nom nom.

I think so- it's one of the things I miss from being in NI. I can occassionally get soad bread in Tesco over here though, but no vegetable roll...
They have a thing called square suasage though, which almost the same but not quite, I imagine it's like the equivalent of methadone to a heroin addict.
