It's a literal pizza pie, imo

No pizza is a pie, as a pie is made of pastry and a pizza is made of bread. Pizzas are sandwiches.

While there are no pizza rules, merely utilising a pizza does not provide immunity to other rules and regulations such as those pertaining to the safety and care of human babies. It is not against any pizza rule (because there are no pizza rules) to use a baby as a topping on a pizza. It may be against other (baby-related) laws, however.

So how sick would you actually get if you tasted the yellow puffed up/exploded florida sauce

I think you could probably suffer pretty much anything up to death? Probably not likely - especially since it would taste extremely bad so you wouldn't be likely to eat much of it - but it really just depends on what kinds of mould or bacteria or whatever end up being in it?

They're for children (which is why the packs show "healthy vegetables" so parents will buy them) and they're a really good idea. I have seen children eat these and the amount of mess produced is barely a fraction of what happens when children try to eat regular tacos or burritos.

Plus they're a fun boat-like shape.

The real problem with it though is that, for a pizza, you want the toppings spread evenly not all dumped in the middle.

Parmo is the UK version (with bechamel I guess?). In Australia it's "parma" and it's got tomato-based sauce.

Although maybe they call it "parmo" in NSW. They say a lot of weird stuff there.

Lyle's Golden Syrup (no clue what this is)

Wikipedia posted:

Golden syrup or light treacle is a thick, amber-coloured form of inverted sugar syrup made by the process of refining sugar cane or sugar beet juice into sugar, or by treatment of a sugar solution with acid. It is used in a variety of baking recipes and desserts. It has an appearance and consistency similar to honey, and is often used as a substitute where honey is unavailable or prohibitively expensive.

Honestly my main complaint is why the gently caress would you have stew and boiled potatoes.

You can just... put the potatoes in the stew? Why the gently caress would you boil them separately just to put them in a heap on the side? If you were making mash then fine but what the gently caress kind of absolute reprobate goes and boils potatoes and then eats them next to stew?
As I said in the other thread, it's better that way. Especially if you're going to make a sandwich out if it (which is what the buttered bread's for).

You get some contrast with the steamed potatoes, whereas if they're cooked in the stew then it's all part of the same thing. Don't be lazy. Cook the potatoes separately.

I have a reputation for defending British food but you're barking up the wrong tree here m9, pick your battles. There's plenty of reasons to assume that stew is made badly, going off the rest of the evidence:

- a sad ground pepper pot and HP sauce as the condiments
- poo poo white sliced bread
- huge chunks of carrot in the stew
- large pile of unseasoned boiled potatoes
- unearned sense of pride in throwing the above together

That stew is gonna be bland and watery as gently caress
Nah, looks fine. The carrots and potatoes are actually good that way. I'd choose wholemeal bread, but and ordinary supermarket sandwich loaf is exactly what you want for this purpose. Like I said, it's not "the best homemade dinner" and I wouldn't be especially proud of making it, but I'd absolutely enjoy eating it.

Lol no, in a decent stew that demonstrated any understanding of cooking techniques the carrots would have been diced small as part of a mirepoix/soffrito to impart their sweetness to the whole dish instead of just being big lumps of either mush or underdone depending on when they were added. And a decent hunk of crusty bread with some actual bite to it would be infinitely preferable to add some textural contrast to the rest of the dish.

Nah.

But there are some other interesting to note.

Their drinks section is also worth a look, if only to marvel at the audacity of listing XXXX Gold as a "craft beer".

5.3 out of 6 stars?
Yeah, menulog has apparently decided on a six-star rating system, which is further broken down into food quality, restaurant service, and delivery time. I have no idea what "restaurant service" is supposed to cover when you're ordering delivery and both the delivery and the food itself are already covered. So that overall rating is on a weird scale and based on three factors, one of which is completely meaningless.

They're corn chips. Every brand has plain salted. You buy them because they taste nice and can be used for scooping dips? They're corn chips.

Yes they're literally called foam bananas and I love the little bastards. They are sometimes hard to find but yeah store brand sweets often have them and barratt still make them I think (as they do lots of childhood sweets)

I just always had assumed circus peanuts were like, actual peanuts.

I think it was from one of the previous iterations of this thread that I learned that "circus peanuts" are not, in fact peanuts (in the style of those sold at the circus, I guess?).

And yeah, bananas are pretty good as far as lollies go. Definitely better than most of the other stuff you'd get in those generic mixed lolly bags (strawberries and cream, milk bottles, jubes, freckles, etc.) Although freckles aren't bad either, and jubes are fine except that the ones you get in mixed lollies are always weirdly hard like they've been stored too long. Or, at least, such was my experience 25-30 years ago.
