Spotted in M&S

  1. "This is not just scraps... this is M&S scraps." Classy to their fingertips.

    They did start out as a stall in Kirkgate Market in Leeds, after all. Jx

    1. Leeds, well that explains it.

      A man looking like Rab C Nesbitt exposed himself to me in Kirkgate Market toilets many years ago, not only did he expose himself he beckoned me to follow him into one of the cubicles, I think not. I told my maid what happened, she was so outraged she strode right in there to give him a piece of her mind, she was in there a good 20 minutes ticking him off.

  2. Chip scraps at 2 pounds! Seems a bit much isn't it? What does it cost to lick the bottom of a used pan? 1 pound and 6 pence? Hahaha

    1. Not chip scraps, batter bits from all that deep frying. It's highway robbery, especially when they are given away at chip shops. I wonder if you can make healthier ones using an air fryer.

  3. I am offended at the very concept of selling scraps.

    1. Can you imagine the talk if you served them at a dinner party as an appetiser, oh the shame.

  4. And why is the tartare sauce "chunky," dare I ask?

    1. Mention tartare sauce chunky or otherwise and I think of plaque and manky gobs

  5. And at M&S prices, too! £40 a kilo?? Isn't that up there with saffron and butterfly testicles?

    1. I can't remember if it was M&S or Iceland that had the leg of lambs in plastic security boxes! I could sprinkle chip shop scraps in my kumio ice cream machine as a surprise ingredient for my dinner guests delight, the ones that live on the council estate, a cheaper alternative to honeycomb/cinder toffee.
