There's a fish called 'Kingclip' that is the best white fish I ever tasted. In South Africa. I have no idea what it really is.

Fish these days has gotten so dear that I really dont like it that much to spend that much.

I eat cheapo fish like fresh sardines and I like seafood.

Mary had a little dress, 'Twas split right up the sides And every time she wore that dress The men could see her thighs.

Mary had another dress 'Twas split right up the front. She didn't wear that one very often.

Mary had a little pig. She couldn't stop it gruntin', So she took it down the garden shed And kicked its little "couldn't" in.

Mary had a little lamb And tied it to a pylon. The electric spark flew up its arse And turned its wool to nylon.

That used to be a dig at the lack of onerous rationing in the US in WW2.

Do you mean ready salted, or do you have the ones with the salt in a little bag?

Before they found a way to flavour "crisps" (as we call them) all our crisps were plain, with salt in a little screw of blue paper so you could add as much or little as you liked. Now you can get plain with the salt in a little blue bag.

Back then, there were three ice cream flavors.

Plain means salted to me. Not bbq, not cheese flavor, not Flaming Hot, just potatoes and salt.

I've never seen that here, separate salt. Would anyone like unsalted chips? Seems unlikely.

One advantage of separate salt would be that the salt is hygroscopic so makes the chips age faster once the bag is open. But stashing them in a ziploc fixes that, or just eating all of them at once.

I wonder if the chips are packaged in nitrogen or something to keep them fresher.

The US population was wary of millenia of non-stop european wars. As continue today.

We could have made more money selling food and weapons to England and Germany.

Probably not. The point is there wasn't a way to make them salty until they found a way to coat the chips/crisps, in the late 60s in the UK I think. Salt doesn't dissolve in cooking oil. Then they introduced the flavours like cheese and onion.

You must have had the same problem in the US, unless people carried salt cellars around with them.

I rather like the bite of the grains of salt hitting my tongue.

A simple written instruction is better than having to sit through a verbose video.

Looks rather revolting, with the bright yellow. Is that artificial colouring? I put half the cheese in the sauce, which also contains milk and cornflour (corn starch) and a little salt; and I like to add a little English mustard powder (1/2 tsp per serving). The other half of the cheese is mixed with packet breadcrumbs as I described above.

Looks as revolting.

Making macaroni cheese isn't all that difficult from scratch, though I suppose having all the ingredients together in a box is convenient. I'm bothered by the idea of powdered cheese though, and the ones I've seen (on YouTube) are very yellow and artificial looking.

An alternative way is to buy a jar of pasta cheese bake sauce. It takes longer (about 40 minutes) as you are baking the pasta in the sauce in the oven, rather than separately so you can boil the macaroni at the same time as making the sauce. You have to add some "proper" grated cheese half way through as a topping - I like to add some packet breadcrumbs for a crispy finish:

Apparently this isn't true, at least not as the story is usually told:

I've never seen chips with separate salt. You can find unsalted but they assume you don't want salt and don't provide any.

If you were really unfortunate they were married together in 'Neapolitan'. I didn't like strawberry and considered vanilla a waste of time so that was not a favorite.

There are many unlikely people.

The 20 bore, as you say, has become very popular in the US.

That article claims it was the skeet shooting rules that favored the 20. Skeet wasn't popular where I grew up and was seen as a bit snobby like golf and the 20 bore wasn't considered to be useful for hunting. Some kids would start with a .410 but my father taught me with a 12.

The .410 has regained some popularity since there are revolvers chambered for it.

Haagen Dazs Vanilla Bean is about the only vanilla worth buying. The original Breyer's from 50 years ago was too, but it has been cheapened to crap.
