    Used to have Pig Trotter for tea sometimes as a child and it was nice with a piece of cheese, fresh tomato and vinegar!

    When we went on holiday to Rome last year my wife went for 3 full days without rice

    Mind you, at the end she was like a smoker who hadn't had a smoke ........
    We then went in search of a Japanese restaurant

    I've learnt to ensure she has regular rice intake.......makes for a happy life
