RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted June 17, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 17, 2022 Unconventional toilet rolls are rolls for unconventional toilets, of course. Much the same thing as organic tomatoes (where can I find the non-organic ones, please), new potatoes (did you think I wanted secondhand ones), and sweet-cured bacon (don't care how it was cured, if it's been ill I'm not eating it, and that's that!). We had Izal at home! This meant that my mother conciously chose to buy it, evidence of child abuse that would probably nowadays have seen me taken into care. 1 1 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium kevinlms Posted June 17, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 17, 2022 An alternative to the cat or Izal! So I was at the store earlier with my service dog. The lady in front of me at checkout had about $200 worth of toilet paper in her shopping cart. With an attitude she asked me what type of dog I had. I told her it was my service dog. Then she got real snarky and said, "I knew that. What type of service?" I said he was a BLD. By now he was licking her face and hands being super friendly. She said, "what is a BLD?" I told her it stood for Butt Licking Dog. She said "Butt Licking Dog?" I said, "yeah, he has been trained to lick my butt clean because I can't seem to be able to find toilet paper because of hoarders." The cashier completely lost it. 2 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This meant that my mother conciously chose to buy it, evidence of child abuse that would probably nowadays have seen me taken into care. I've still got a roll somewhere. No idea why my parents bought the stuff, other than that it was advertised as "medicated" and that the alternatives might be cut up newspaper or "soft" toilet paper that was more like blotting paper... As a child, I think we were convinced that the main uses for the stuff were as tracing paper or for comb kazoos!

It shouldn't cost much more than one of those poxy "pouches" Anything over immediate requirements could be frozen for next time and the bottles of spices won't go off either. Ready in 90 seconds? Ugh! They're going to have to buy wraps and greenery separately anyhow! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugh! They're going to have to buy wraps and greenery separately anyhow! I was looking for Mexican sauces/seasonings.👍 As to ingredients which sort of beans? I already have Red Kidney, Borlotto & Pinto as well as Frozen Corn, Tinned tomatoes, Jalapeños (Red & Green), Fajita seasoning, frozen hot chilis (red & green from greenhouse). The wraps are in the freezer. This year's sweet peppers (in the greenhouse) are only about 30mm across, so I would need to buy those.🙁 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year's sweet peppers (in the greenhouse) are only about 30mm across, so I would need to buy those Going by the TV adverts its too much fuss to find a recipe and shop for raw ingredients, let alone think of what is in what you want to have and just busk it. You've either got to get the above ready-made sludge pouch or get a box of "fresh" ingredients couriered to you. 31 minutes ago, Nick C said: No need to buy wraps either, they're so easy to make! Flour, water and a splash of oil... You know, I never really thought of that! Sort of pancakes without eggs and milk? Simples! And after you've finished you have food without all the additives and preservatives that end up in ready-made meals. CFRF! Campaign For Real Food Its enough to raise a wry grin, if not a smile....
