You've been here a long time Albatross. ;) 
We did this growing up in the 80s, in the USA,  eating a treat of a Mcdonalds Happy Meal. 


I'm also a lot older than you... I don't even think Happy Meals were invented the last time I was in a US McDonalds!

Jimbo, I cannot see what is strange about Grapok Sauce, Mot'loch, Quarktajino, Targ Milk or Zilm'kach.Nope. Nothing weird there at all.   All childhood favourites.

Man, speaking of crispy bacon and maple syrup, when I was in the US in June, I bought the most amazing bacon jerky. It was heavenly. I'm in the market for a dehydrator anyways (for drying hops) so I don't think it will be long before I make bacon jerky.

YES!!!!!  We used to get biscuits from KFC and I swear my goal in life was to put 100 packets of honey on every bite.

Nan... not biscuit related but Lidl has blocks of queso cheese this month for Iberico month.

It melts so nice!

It's expiry date isn't until October so I'm going to pick up a couple more.

Oh, coolies! I may have to catch a bus over to Lidl this afternoon, then. Thanks.

We're still on a modified Newcastle Diet, so we won't be able to eat much of it (calories), but it'll be a real perk to have a taste now and then! And I can freeze it.

At 3.5 weeks. Don't know the amount of weight lost, but jeans that had gotten very tight are now wearable comfortably again.  ;D

4.5 more weeks to go!

I don't like to admit this (especially back when I lived in Arkansas!), but I don't actually like biscuits.  Still, if I went to Popeye's and they put a biscuit with my food, I ate it!  Popeye's biscuits are so buttery and light... absolutely perfect, and not at all stodgy like I think biscuits can be.

No, I wouldn't put them on the same plate.  I mean, I don't freak out if they touch, but I wouldn't encourage it.

Bummer. Made it to Lidl, they had it last week but not anymore.  :-\\\\

Walked down to Lupe Pintos on Great Western. No Vlassic Kosher Dills. None of our favorite salsa. Wanted five pounds for some corn tortillas. (Uh,, no way.) Got some dried chipotles, some Mexican cheese (also overpriced), some corn taco shells, some salsa taqueria. We're having tacos for supper. Or, as close as I can get to them, anyway.

Ok, tacos tomorrow. Tonight I made https://www.marthastewart.com/1519365/chicken-voodle-soup  and it's amazingly good. Very filling, very easy, and actually pretty low calorie and low carb.
