    I agree, but the person expecting a nice meal after working all day, is sitting on his arris, while another person just finished a 10 hour shift is dashing around the kitchen to prepare a taste sensation (lol) and then he turns his nose up at the grub. I say it is up to the chef what they are cooking - If i come in knackered after a 10 hour day followed by an hour in the gym and he damanded a roast dinner for example, I would tell him to do one!
    The opposite of what you know...is also true

    Another tactic that worked with my daughter, when she was in an "I don't like it", "How do you know, you've never had it before?" phase, was, when she asked for, say, the latest breakfast cereal, to say, "No. You haven't had it before, so you won't like it".
    If you fold it in half, will an Audi A4 fit in a Citroen C5? :)
