That is one thing that I do remember as being good..... At my secondary school, where they had their own kitchens, they cooked an awesome roast potatoe! Being a monitor, we got to help finish them off after everyone had been served and everything was cleared away! I still love roasties !

Listening to you guys going on about British school food, I just had a thought.
The US has "adopted" cuisine from nearly every country on the planet. Except Britain.

German humour, Italian war heroes, the book of Jewish charities and Australian culture!* *As told to me by a German friend! That said, you can't beat good old roast beef, Yorkshire pud and roast potatoes, roast parsnips and peas. And don't forget the mustard and gravy!

Having turkey on Thanks Giving Day too I suspect.
BTW. since this is the 'Did you know thread' and we have gone a bit off topic, did you know that The President of The United States ceremonially 'pardons' a turkey on Thanks Giving Day? The turkey is then given to a farm where it spends the rest of its days running around freely. And I thought it was only us Brits that had traditions like that! Maundy Money etc.etc.

They are vile beyond belief, being laced with sugar and practically devoid of chocolate/cocoa. There again, maybe they are just in the US tradition which produces 'candy' (as in 'chocolate') that's the worst tasting toothrot known to mankind unless anyone's had anything even fouler? Unfortunately, since Cadbury's was bought out by Kraft, the sugar content goes up, the chocolate goes down. See also the once mighty Mars Bar, now a pathetic overly sweet unchocolatey shadow of it's former self. Bah! Did you know: The average American consumes three burgers per week; that's 13 billion per year as a nation. 71% of America's beef is consumed this way. That's a LOT of beef** **GM Beef at that, too. Last edited by pierrelm; April 15th, 2014 at 04:26 PM.. Reason: GM in this case is not General Motors; that's an entirely different beef altogether *ahem* |

On a similar-but unrelated theme-does anyone recall the grey-black smoked glass coffee mugs-also made in France- that were popular in the eighties? One or two batches were dodgy and would explode spontaneously without warning (presumably because they hadn't been properly annealed to relieve stresses)---and rapidly became known in NZ as 'Mururoa Mugs' after the French south pacific nuclear testing site which we strenuously opposed during the 70s and 80s |
