On the subject of Stew

This newsgroup is finally getting useful.

John

Stews. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm :-)

Graham

You're on the dole, and you can afford meat?

Yay socialism, I guess.

Thanks, Rich

Heck, that's nothing. If you have a freezer, and some zip-locs, you can spoon about a pint of stew into a bag and freeze it - that way, you don't have to worry about the stew getting fuzzy in a week or so's time. ;-)

But hell, who makes stew from scratch, when Dinty Moore is two and a half bucks for three days' worth? ;-)

Cheers! Rich

If you are a member of PETA you must eat meat.

As a Bachelor[1](#) myself, I would like to ensure that no females miss understands your intentions[2b](*).

thanks

LOL! Only an engineer would include caviar on a "Cooking" page!

Dinty who?

I've ventured into tinned stews once or twice in the past, out of sheer nosiness. They all resemble posh dogfood.

Yay supermarkets and their pale imitations of real meat, I should think.

I was going to ask how you know what posh dogfood tastes like, but just thinking about it makes me feel slightly queasy, so I won't bother.

Ah, I didn't mean tastewise - I mean they *look* like posh dogfood, at least how the posh dogfood looks on telly adverts.

Apparently I used to try and steal the cat's food as a tiny nipper but I can't say I remember what it tastes like.

it does raise interesting questions of whether people on the dole should be forced to turn veggie or not, and how that could be managed anyway. Let's leave aside the matter of whether one could afford internet access...

Why, and how would it be enforced?

Well exactly.

Cheap entertainment, plus one can look for jobs. Whether all people who are unemployed wish to look for jobs is another matter.

That's a relief!

I used to eat worms, so I was once told, but like you I can't remember what they were like. I'd imagine they might be a tad gritty.

In message , dated Thu,

You should have been named Robin, not Harry.

Yes, perhaps you're right - I do have spindly legs, as well as a tendency to stand on fence-posts and look cheeky.

Did you actually READ what it said ?:-)
