I'm pretty much the same Graham, I like to cook my own food for both hygene and health reasons. I'm not against fast food or takeaways occasionally, and I will take the kids to McD or Pizza Hut once every couple of months as a treat, but I'm not a fan of crap/junk food myself unless there is no alternative. However, when I'm travelling, I do seem to live on a diet of total ..... - KFC, McD ...etc. When I was coming home last week, all I could think about on the Dubai to Brum leg of my trip was about having a nice lean chicken breast salad with fresh tomatoes, peppers...etc without fear of eating uncooked raw veg prepared by someone who hasn't washed their hands with antibac soap after they've been to the toiletOriginally Posted by grahamw48
I just read about this on my yahoo.
Being a tight-fisted person, fortunately it is probably 20 years since I bought one of these takeaways....at the rip-off prices they charge.
I have a natural aversion to anything cooked by total strangers out of my sight too, so home-cooked it is, and then I know exactly what's in it, how fresh it is, and where it has been.
I can't believe how much money people waste on buying and eating crap.
Edited to add...I'm excusing Dominos, as they're providing my son with part-time work at the moment.
