altalt: Did myself a nice steak sandwich with Dijon Mustard
I tell you, that mustard must have been fucking amazing before October 2012, as it was still pretty nice.

urgh
you're as bad as my dad

me: but it says 'best before 2003'. throw it out.

him: it's fucking vinegar. they use it to store stuff in. it doesn't go off.

it's the opposite to me. ooh, a teaspoon has gone, best throw the whole lot away and open a brand new pot.

i hate waste, unless it's trying to crawl away, it's edible

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:17, Reply)

stuff is never as nice once it's been opened
my biggest loathing of all is toast crumbs in the butter/flora. SHUDDER.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:18, Reply)

I find it's usually a fuck sight nicer once it's been opened
as eating the packaging as well tends to impair the flavour somewhat.

Seriously, you're such an idiot.

it's lucky i know how much you love me

( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:30, Reply)

Yeah, but some of the stuff you come out with boggles my mind.
How does somebody get so squicky over a few bread-crumbs in marge?
( Kroney, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:32, Reply)

because it's disgusting
someone else's second hand stale crumbs making it look all gross and icky... how can they not be bothered to do it properly and leave it nice for the next person? it's up there with pebbledashing.

RANK!
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:34, Reply)

So you're telling me that a few crumbs from scraping a knife across some toast,
that has not at any point been touched by human hands, is exactly the same as sharting all over the toilet walls?
( Kroney, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:36, Reply)

If I have a little butter left over on the knife, I'll scrape it off on the side of the butter dish to be used first next time.

that actually made me heave
:(
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:39, Reply)

I don't cross contaminate between butter/jam/whatever though
I give the knife a quick lick before putting it into something else.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:43, Reply)

I don't bother. I use the same knife for everything.
Sometimes I get them back out of the sink if I'm running short.
( Kroney, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:44, Reply)

you might be joking
but this is precisely my fear.

part of it stems from the fact that i KNOW my brother used to swig out of all the milk/juice cartons when we were kids. urrrrrgh.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:45, Reply)

Is this bad?
I should maybe get a second "guest" juice carton.
( The Light in Chains don't touch the Pope's boner, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 11:05, Reply)

not particularly.
Swipe is just a teeny bit mental.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 11:05, Reply)

I agree with Swipey
Keep your extraneous stuff out of the butter/marge. If I want butter/marge on my bread that's all I want - none of your second-hand crumbs/jam/marmite/whatever.

You realise all that this proves is you're a complete idiot
and not anything negative at all about LiC?
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:18, Reply)

A lot of people confuse 'best before' with 'use by'.

( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:19, Reply)

it's personal taste innit
if it has gone a funny colour, or had a bit of a crust around the sides of the jar or something, it will make me retch.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:20, Reply)

And both are meaningless
to anyone with more common sense than a labrador.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:20, Reply)

I agree with this
However, according to Bob Martin, a food safety expert at the FSA:
“It's tempting just to give your food a sniff to see if you think it's gone off, but food bugs like E. coli and salmonella don't cause food to smell off, even when they may have grown to dangerous levels. So food could look and smell fine but still be harmful.”

Precisely, so if anyone should know, it's him.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:26, Reply)

I had e coli once
so I'm a bit dubious when it comes to meat.

It's mustard
Good luck to anything trying to grow in that.

haha. of course, sweetness.
Do tell me which you can't choose between?

well, the gym has their own branded one, so it must be telling the truth
there is a muscle building one, a get lean one, a herbal detox one and one that i can't remember, but the writing was pink, so it would look best in my kitchen. what do you think?
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:24, Reply)

The pink one. Definitely.

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:27, Reply)

that was my thinking too
if you listen carefully, you can just about hear the thud of badger's forehead hitting his desk
( rachelswipe with a fork, Mon 29 Jul 2013, 10:29, Reply)

You might as well choose it on the colour of the writing and it not clashing
there's fuck all else use it's going to be.

Go for the one with the best Woo Science!
Look out for key phrases like "full amino acid profile" or "chocolate flavour"
