Posted on 21 December, 2015 by roughseasinthemed

I found this great sheet from Gib’s Pizza Hut about food allergens info. It includes whether or not food is suitable for vegetarians, vegans, and details whether food contains gluten, soya, nuts, lupin, sesame, celery, mustard, you name it. I … Continue reading →

Do come to dinner :)

Posted on 2 November, 2015 by roughseasinthemed

It’s always interesting when men write about becoming vegetarian/vegan, because it is really a soft soppy girly thing to do. Real men eat meat not quiche. At one point I was following a blog by a man who was going … Continue reading →

Right, said Fred, these vegetarians have to go

Posted on 26 September, 2015 by roughseasinthemed

Roughseas, If I may. There are a growing number of vegetarians among Jewish people, especially in Israel. In Genesis, God originally gave a vegetarian diet, but modified it to allow for changing world conditions. I was vegetarian for many years … Continue reading →

Views from a hospital bed

Posted on 20 May, 2014 by roughseasinthemed

Spending weeks in hospital waiting for an op gives plenty of time for useless musing. So in no particular order … Staff Consultants are the same the world over. No more to be said there. Similarly porters and cleaners. Pretty … Continue reading →

Some Saturday thoughts on blogging

Posted on 24 March, 2013 by roughseasinthemed

Another gem from WordPress. If you write a long post, you need to tag it as a long post. Not with the obvious word ‘long’ of course. You now have to tag your post using WPLongform. What is a long … Continue reading →

Crufts – nice doggies and all that

Posted on 8 March, 2013 by roughseasinthemed

Primp. Preen. Parade. People and Pups (so cute to call dogs pups) run around the ring indistinguishably, hair and fur floating elegantly in the breeze. Unless they are a Mexican Hairless, or a Hairless Chihuahua, of course. Pose and gait … Continue reading →

You are what you eat (2)

Posted on 14 February, 2013 by roughseasinthemed

And now it’s donkey burgers. Seriously people. Wake up. I can’t be bothered to say any more. You want to condone vicious animal cruelty and slaughter for a few bucks and a cheaper meal, go ahead. You want to eat … Continue reading →

You are what you eat

Posted on 13 February, 2013 by roughseasinthemed

A short and pithy post. Honestly! Would you believe that from me? Horse meat in lasagna. I confess, I couldn’t resist writing about it. I see four issues here: 1) Hypocrisy. OK to eat cows, pigs, sheep, but not horses … Continue reading →

Treating the symptoms – and not the cause

Posted on 31 January, 2013 by roughseasinthemed

Or stupid legislation. Or nanny state personified. Call it what you will. Busily browsing the internet about Land Rovers, as you do when you have things you need to do, and don’t want to do, I chanced upon an interesting … Continue reading →

Catering for all tastes

Posted on 26 June, 2012 by roughseasinthemed

Having a party? Entertaining at work? Does vegetarian food even cross your mind? It should do because nine times out of ten, the vegetarian food always seems to disappear the fastest. I say this as someone who has gone to … Continue reading →

Quorn

Posted on 22 June, 2012 by roughseasinthemed

Fake meat? Processed food? Junk food? High protein meat-free ready meal? Fresh from the laboratory? All of those, and more. Or as the website says, a wonder food. Well, not quite, in my opinion. What is Quorn? It’s made from … Continue reading →

Compromises?

Posted on 17 April, 2012 by roughseasinthemed

What do you do when faced with a dilemma involving your principles? Choose one principle above another? Or try and find that compromise in the middle, that isn’t one or the other? Life is made up of compromises of so … Continue reading →

Consumerism (7) – it doesn’t matter to me

Posted on 10 April, 2012 by roughseasinthemed

The much-heralded post and the final one in the series. Perhaps the most important one too. Oh. Why? Because it is the one where you can make a difference. I was going to insert a terribly clever digression here to … Continue reading →

Seal of approval

Posted on 30 March, 2012 by roughseasinthemed

Some years ago my mother decided to buy a beautiful pair of sealskin (?) fur boots. They were amazingly warm. I know, I wore them a few times. She bought them from Bridlington in Yorkshire, UK, where not many seals … Continue reading →

Consumerism (4) – all I need is a pound a day

Posted on 26 March, 2012 by roughseasinthemed

THOUGHT OF GIVING IT ALL AWAY TO A REGISTERED CHARITY, ALL I NEED IS A PINT POUND A DAY. (thanks paul for that one – ETA Band On The Run, suddenly realised people may not know that) Apparently that is … Continue reading →

The perfect breakfast

Posted on 4 February, 2012 by roughseasinthemed

Breakfast is so not my favourite meal. It’s the only meal in the day that I struggle with. Not that I struggle to eat it, I can just never decide what to have. Nor is it because I am vegetarian. … Continue reading →
