# Mine was ace!
Just me my mum and her husband, a 6 kilo turkey, 3 kilo ham, enough pigs in blankets to choke a large pony, plenty of Sage and Onion, and no Brussel Sprouts. Not because I dont like them mind, just because my mum refused to cook them properly as she does every year!

What did you have in God's own country?

# Sprouts are sooo underrated
They're boiled to death and taste like shite! Parboil them, and sautee them with butter, black pepper and bacon. Taste fantastic!

# Exactement!
I myself quite love them finely sliced, and then tossed in a bowl with cooked lardons.

# I seem to have forgotten to mention that they were meant to be sliced:P
Schools! An evil regime set up to spread bad propaganda about shrouts!

EDIT: I didn't touch sweetcorn or beetroot until I was about 20 as the crap I got as school was tinned or pickled!

# Ha!
It isn't schools that are the problem. It is just the history of the roast in GB. It absolutely sucks! I did mean raw though. I fucking love raw sprouts!

# I've heard that.
Never tried it though. THere's a new channel 4 food fight again this Jan which will be interesting seeing the changes it made to the food industry last years.

# REALLY!!!!!
Is it a proper food fight? can i play? I have a freezer full of frozen pheasants, and i reckon a spout tree would make quite a formidable weapon! oooohhh fun times!

# you silly moo:P
It's like the one they did last year that almost halved the sales of battery raided chicken in the UK.

i only eat free range and we have our own hens too, battery rescues, i hate the way they turn living things into a proper soulless factory process.
