Coming to an NHS kitchen near you!


Fancy some pork brains in milk gravy? Or how about a whole tinned chicken? Looks tempting doesn't it? I hope to God no NHS accountants or catering managers are reading this. Click on the pic to get a closer look... if you're brave enough!

  1. Ewww, disgusting then again I have seen many a strange meal where I live.

    Once we got conned into ordering a mezzes, all we wanted was a glass of fresh oramge but the owner of a roadside taverna pestered us so we gave in.

    We were each served small plate of cous cous, well it looked like cous cous, two burnt nugget looking things, some jelly stuff that looked like frog spawn, yellow rice and on top of this mess there were three snails...one was moving.... I threw up.

    Usually you pay after eating meals here, these two con artists made sure we paid when the road kill crap was served.

  3. You know, they actually have a road kill cafe in USA. I saw it on TV a couple of years ago and it showed these men searching for road kill animals,then they took them to the road kill cafe where the chefs cooked them.

    Apparently, the road kill animals have to be cooked within an hour, and the place was full of customers happily eating porcupine and other disgusting stuff, I couldn`t believe it !

  5. The Roadkill Cafe in the u.s. has a platter called guess the mess if you guess what it is you eat for free.

  6. Yeeeewkkkk

    I really object to that label on the chicken. Sweet Sue is probably some balding fat guy with a factory sprawling over several acres, where chickens lead miserable lives cramped in tiny cages and then get plucked, gibleted, roasted and compressed before being stuck in a can upside down. It's not some sweet lady wearing a gingham apron cooking up wholesome food in her country kitchen and spooning choice bits of the family roast into a can for some poor jerk to buy.

    Her "kitchen" (read: industrial ovens covered in chicken fat and bits of skin and feathers and mess all over the floor) will no more be a sweet, homely country kitchen smelling of home baked bread and coffee than I am the Nobel prizewinner for physics. It's not even brown, though I guess they get away with the pic by saying it's a serving suggestion .. lol

    How can they get away with it!! Though, if they put a real pic on the front they'd be shut down in a day, and "Sweet Sue" would be chewing on the other end of his cigar as it is rammed in up to his tonsils.

    [edit] My interest piqued, I did a little search and found this:

    as an interesting little note or two on the same thing I'm going on about, more or less. (Well, the Sweet Sue bit).

    It may be cooked and you may be able to eat it cold, but .. would anyone? I mean, really?

  7. I remember when I worked for Liptons store in the early 70s, the tinned chicken sold very welland the biggest buyers were pensioners, so I bought one to try. I must say it tasted really nice.

  8. In those days the accountants hadn't been put in charge. I notice no one's commented on the pork brains in milk gravy. Doesn't it appeal to you?

  9. That chicken looks really scary. Recipes from the US seem to use a lot of processed things as basic ingredients. One I looked at recently called for tinned chicken. I'd never seen such a thing. Well now I have... I don't think I'll be rushing to buy one!

    I don't think I'll be after the pork brains in milk gravy either...

  10. Confused .
    Your favourite titbit appears to be processed sliced pig flesh (battery farmed and fed on offal , shit and other inedible proteins which humans have refused previously) with cheese made from milk from forced impregnations of milk cows AND you then say how awful other forms of dead animal flesh products are !!

  11. Sorry to disillusion you TM but I think the 'chefs' are ahead of you here. Do you not realise this is the sort of stuff you have been served up for the last few months??? Only you have been offered the cheaper versions! LOL!

    Sorry! But the brains in milk gravy is just way too scary to contemplate! And my lot had the cheek to complain about a bought bolognese sauce tonight!! Think I will show them this and watch them turn pale at the thought!

    And I thought that 'Mr Brains Faggots' was bad enough!!!

  13. I once went to a Greek family barbeque here, roast lamb in a spit, succulent and tasty, one platter of legs, another with ribs and so on, then one with the sheeps head on it.

    A fight broke out, two elderly Greek women were fighting over the sheep head, one had already eaten the eyeballs and tounge, the other wanted to eat the cheeks and the brains.

    I couldn`t believe it, perfectly succulent cuts of lamb and these two elderly delinquents faught over the head.

  14. Oh my dear God that chicken looks revolting! I think my stomach just turned a 360!

  15. I cannot believe it. How can a chicken find room in a tin or can anyway even if it is dead?
    As for the brains in milk gravy: aeiourrrgh.
    I think animal parts such as brains, heart, lung, kidney, hooves, genitals, eyes should be decently incinerated (or put into dog food).

  16. Gosh....that is truly awful!! If it even looks like you are being served that anytime soon - I would recommend you try your hardest to reach the "RED" button and initiate CPR on yourself!! That's truly disgusting!!

    I'm almost dry wretching over here and it takes a fair bit of awfulness to turn my stomach!! Ewwwwwww

    Pork brains in milk gravy - who even thinks of these things!! And a chicken in a can.......nope, no way, not on this planet!!

    Hope you get another yummo Panini for lunch tomorrow. :)

  19. EOUW!!!!

    It actually states "Home style goodness" on the chicken can.... Crikey!!

    Pig brains???? Couldn't contemplate it....

    To be fair offal generally is ok... Faggots a particular favourite, but the Caul (stomach I think) they originally wrapped them in just doesn't appeal!
