Remember that Star Trek episode where they are on a mining planet with a creature called a "Hoarta". It bored through the rock using acid it excreeted. Kind of a cross between a pizza and a muffin.
Now back in the 1970s & 80s Batchelor's Foods sold pots of dried peppers, useful for students and single professionals. So I plump for Batchelor's dried peppers in Primary School Gloy sauce with carbonised gratin dauphinois (helps to remove the glycoalkaloids). Differential diagnosis:- Gratin Languedocien or melanzane alla parmigiana by a chef whose ambition is greater than his abilities.
For non-UK readers, Gloy:- Cheap brand of non-toxic school glue used by infant & junior schools that couldn't afford anything better, safe for children to eat & a staple part of school dinners until the 1980s, completely lacking in any kind of adhesive qualities - except when adhesion wasn't required.

I guess it is a mixture of potato slices, peas, mushrooms, dried tomatoes, beans and sweetcorn baked in bechamel with cheese over it. I remember you cannot eat sweetcorn though. best wishes - barbara (styria)
Having spent just over 24 hours in hospital to have thyroid removed :O .. that's all the time u get in aus folks .. I wasn't fed a real meal to compare but the sandwiches for lunch were by far an improvement on the stuff they serve you :(

It was vegetable moussaka.
ReplyDeleteLooked like cold hotpot but I'll take your word for it.
ReplyDeleteThis made me laugh out loud. I don't know how they dare put this in front of someone who's ill. The sooner you're out of there the better.
That's disgusting.

i would gladly prefer to eat my pet rabbit's dry pellets than put my fork anywhere near THAT. Was it cooked or taken from a toxic wastage dump?
