      “not very good”. I’m actually getting really rather angry about this. In fact I think this might be a hate crime.

          Haha. Nah, you’re good 😊 . Brits like beans because they’re cheap, easy and available. They’re ok, hardly a culinary experience worth seeking out though :)

          Although they are one of your five a day!

      Younger me might be disappointed in a lot of things, but my fascination with new and interesting foods would not be a disappointment at all! If I told me “We’re really into brie and canning salsa” we’d be delighted!

      My partner is British and we are in the US, so we end up hunting for stuff like this all the time. Luckily a market up the road happens to be owned by a Brit, so we can at least get tea biscuits there.

          Yes, Indian food is incredible, we are in agreement there. The best biscuits, in our opinion, are Dark Chocolate Digestives (blue package), dunked in breakfast tea just long enough to soften the chocolate. I prefer 3 bites. She prefers to take the whole thing and sho… Well, you get it.

      I’ve moved over to Branston now. The last Heinz beans I had were horrible - watery sauce, not enough beans. Branston is the bomb.

    Typically if someone asks me a very off key question like this, I assume it’s because they want to be asked that question in order to start a conversation they have in mind. So I would usually give some answer: “I’m really enjoying baking bread right now, so I suppose flour.”

    Then ask “what about you?” Which is usually when the really interesting and often much more off key conversation starts. If not, I can start talking about baking bread, so it’s win/win for me!

    Dude, Newman’s Own has a sourdough crust frozen pizza and it’s amazing. It’s now our go-to, “I’m too mentally drained to cook,” food.

    A choice of groceries? Mister Moneybags here has so many choices for his groceries he has the luxury of having a preference of some over others. Ladies, if you go home with this guy you get your choice of breakfast the next morning. /s

      A fellow Trader Joe’s lover definitely transcends the lame smalltalk boundary. I don’t even go but the way my dad recommends food when he meets someone else who goes to Trader Joe’s you would think they had known each other their whole life.

      Trader Joe’s is okay for some things. I like their cinnamon rolls and think they are worth the five dollars.

    Oh, man. A few months ago I, a quadragenarian dude, spent like 20 minutes telling a friend about my skin care routine. … when I have the gumption to do it.

    Not a recent purchase, but Costco had these halloumi fries recently and they were bomb. I’m sad to see that I can’t buy them right now.

    I had a couple eggs a few weeks ago, couldn’t afford orange juice though. Today I can’t even afford toilet paper. Don’t ask why I’m not wearing any socks…
