I've been vego for years but never really got into stuff that's trying to emulate meat. I reckon in a burger with the other stuff it probably won't matter anyway.
I'm more into the bbq'ed zucchini and asparagus tbh.

I've been eyeing them off for a while, good thing about living here the vegan stuff goes on sale a lot and it makes more sense to try them out. I'm also at a point where I far prefer making vegan nachos, can't remember the brand but they use bretroot juice with the textured protein and it's wonderfully tasty. Having a litte of cheese out of sweet potato, coconut cream, nutritional yeast, garlic, onion and sirracha goes wonders and is a mad dipping sauce to boot.

as the threads resident cyclist I dont think they should have to wear masks but also it should be illegal to ride two abreast and they should be murdered if they do so. this has nothing to do with covid and should stay this way for the forseeable future. it should also be illegal to be in front of me at a cafe wearing lycra bike shorts if you don't have at least a 8/10 rear end. thank you.

I'm not really one for most vegan meat substiutes (taste-wise), but the chick'n bites that Lord of the Fries have in their mixed munch box are surprisingly addictive in their own way.

The beyond burgers were good. They got good char on the webber, which tasted like the char on a meat burger, good texture and juiciness too. With cheese, sauce, tomato etc. they did seem a lot like I remember meat burgers. They're expensive and a bit small but a good change from the black bean burgers we usually make. Would eat again. Bbq'ed zucchini, asparagus and par cooked potato slices were ace.

Well we will find out how good Victoria’s notifications are + effectiveness of 2 masks and second shot Pfizer; also paranoid shoe changing and hand washing+ shower after getting home.

It's hard to blame people for being infectious in the community when it's taking so long for tests to be processed.

While everyone has different risk profiles I feel like you should have had at least one test in the past 18 months just because.

What for though? There have been a couple of people at work who went and had multiple tests during the last lockdown despite not being sick and not near an exposure site because they were "doing there bit for the testing numbers" but that doesn't really make sense to me. Is that what we're supposed to do?

Yes. If you don't feel right and it's reminiscent of the flu or sinus infection, even just the beginning stages of either, get a test.

You can be asymptomatic, so if you have been to an exposure site you should get tested.


If you are symptomatic with anything like a cold or flu, regardless where you have been because you can catch delta passing someone in the street, you should be tested.

There really is no reason to not get a test done.

This is what happened to me a few months back.

A week and a half of utter misery and it felt like nothing I've ever had before. Just brutal.

Got tested immediately the symptoms started showing, of course and it came back negative. It was just that wearing a mask everywhere and sanitising my hands a hundred times a day had turned my immune system into mush.

They will begin arriving on Sunday night.
