In the blue corner we have the veggies, and guess which colour corner for the meaties?   

[sam]

green?

[Simon]

RED!   

[Sandra]

Is that vegetarians or Australians you are talking about Sandra? 

Oh have I made that mistake again 

I am always getting those two words that begin with V mixed up, vampires and vegetarians 

I think its because neither of them eat proper food, although the vampires come close to one of my favourite northern delicacies, black puddings, but in the raw state

food is food - I just dont run the risk of getting a variety of diseases from mine.... :-) ... that I know of!

[Sandra]

Each to their own Sam 

I dont mind the risk as long as it tastes good, I would hate to eat food that I didnt enjoy and die from some pesticide or fertiliser poisoning that theyd used to make it grow.
At least with meat you can bet your life its had plenty of antibiotics to keep the animals healthy

I will be trying out your pumpkin soup this week MB.  We have a visitor from Oz staying with us from Wednesday and she is a vegetarian.   

Good for you Clive I hope you enjoy it, I made some more this afternoon, I added some ginger to this lot.

the reason to go organic.... or in my case, once I get my own house..grow my own (vegetables in my case) ! :-)

I tried planting some sausages and steaks a couple of years back but my soil must not be good enough to grow pigs and cows on 

Organic food is no good for us older people Sam, we couldnt have got to our age without eating the preservatives and antibiotics that they put in the food.
Clive has even had to resort to being pickled in formaldehyde for 8 hours a night in order to preserve him for a few more years

I read an article in New Scientist some years back which claimed that there are so many preservatives in food these days that corpses that have been buried for several years still look as fresh as the day they were planted  .

sounds like racoon city...

I made the pumpkin and sweet potato soup today and I have to say that it was very tasty.  I will definitely prepare that again!  Main course was a nut roast and that turned out really nice too.  I was  a bit apprehensive since it contained a few weird ingredients such as tahini, caraway seeds and vegemite, and it looked all vegetably.  But it set into a cake-like texture and our Aussie guest was very impressed that I had taken the time to concoct it.  Hell, I thought that nut roast was everyday fare for non-meat eaters!  I actually got to like it after the first few mouthfulls but the cat was quite unimpressed at not having any leftovers.

[sam]

im not a nut roast fan!

sounds like ra[racist remark] city...

ok, who the f*** changed my post? It is not a racist remark... Raccoon City -

Raccoon is based upon an archetypical industrial and commercial Midwestern American city. The economy of Raccoon City is largely dominated by the Umbrella Corporation. The corporation generously financed most of the city's projects, giving the company a positive image to the people of Raccoon City. Although 30% of the citizens are also employed by the international corporation, most are unaware of the company's many illegal activities.

The population of the city is over 100,000, as stated at the end of Resident Evil 3.

The novelizations of the games by S.D. Perry state that Raccoon City is located in Pennsylvania; however, the novels are not officially recognized by Capcom as part of the series' canon.
