If your interested in flavours and food I thoroughly recommend The Dorito Effect by Mark Schatzker. Here's a
taster*. It's a bit American but there's some frightening stuff in there; "if humans grew as fast as broilers, a 6.6 lbs. (3kg) newborn baby would weigh 660 lbs. (300kg) after 2 months."
What it's about is the use of flavourings in our modern food - sausage and beer flavoured
corn chips anyone?

I didn't

John? John who? Is that Crazy John's mobile phones? (They're probably multinational)
28gm for 25cents.....that translates to about $AU2.17 for a standard 175g bag.
Given that tiny bags cost more per gram, it looks like we're getting done again.
If we're "lucky", we may get ordinary crisps 2 for $5.00.

Paul,
Thanks for that.
The things you think, put down in print.
btw, OUR chooks are free-range, but not enough meat to make a meal.

AH! Forum John, sorry, Joe.
It's a bug, it's supposed to bug you, that's its job.
If not the one I mentioned, I thought it may be some political jibe.

Reminds me of Mr Bean's Christmas when he ran out of twiglettes so he broke some sticks from the tree and dipped them in Marmite!! classic.
