    You can, but I recommend the use of one of these babies...

    Yes, Branston.
    I hate these well known products that say "new improved recipe" on the label.... it means they are now going to taste bloody awful.

    Have you tried Morrison’s tinned tomatoes with Mediterranean vegetables (a kind of ratatouille)

    When I see "new improved" I think about writing to the company and asking why was I paying for a load of **** before?

    I still haven’t got over what they did to Tizer years ago now.

    I crave the bright red loveliness from my childhood - but that obviously had too much sugar and too many E numbers. The current incarnation is absolutely horrible.

    I've still not got over Cadburys sale to Kraft.

    Not had a Cadbury product in years and refuse to do so. American crap in Dairy Milk should be a hanging offence. Let alone the tax dodging, job losses and altering just about every formula going despite pledging not to do so.

    And don't even start me on Weetabix since it fell into Chinese ownership. I think they must make them from the bottom of birdcage waste now. Awful compared to what they used to be.

    I can't speak for Tizer because I've only tried the stuff out now. I think there's nothing more refreshing than ice cold fizzy pop and if it were cheaper I'd drink it in the pub. R Whites lemonade used be to fantastic on draught but it's crap out of a bottle.

    Best Lemonade at minute is the Aldi's own make stuff.

    Perhaps your taste has changed.

    I had the same trauma recently with Vimto.

    Tastes do change. I used to love lager when I first started drinking. Now I can't stand the stuff unless it's chilled and I've eaten something spicy.

    Not that particular one Marlon. Do they go well with a full English. :). Prefer tinned Tom's to beans on a breakfast. Once ran a thread on running a campaign to stop Grilled salad Tom's (hate the bloody things) being banned in all establishments unless choice of both. Salad Tom's are exactly that. A salad ingredient. Was once told in a hotel grilled Tom's work out cheaper in the end. But hardly any bugger eats em. Can never give mine away.

    Bet they filled it with ice n'all. Always ask for soft drinks out of chilled fill. "NO ICE". It's cold anyway and I've supped it B4 it hits the table. Looked gone out at me in America where they fill cup to brim with ice afore adding coke etc. Also pisses me off when a pulled rather than measured pint of lager is less when in our lasses case. Blackcurrant is added. Then they charge as much as 60p for the privelage.

    Are you Keith Hill in disguise? In all seriousness, they are quite good though for the price.
