    ..........My ex-OH used to eat cheese, beetroot and salad cream sandwiches, and his mum used to eat fried egg and jam sandwiches.....


    That reminds me, I'm rather partial to marmite and marmalade on toast and cream cheese and blackcurrant jam sandwiches, and sometimes I add slices of those big gherkins if I happened to have a jar.

    And due to necessity and down to what was in the fridge, I found that I quite like tuna, mayonaise and grated cheese mix up together with gherkin slices and put in a pitta bread, and I bet they would have been gorgeous toasted but was too hungry to find out.

    I always have mayonaise with rice, except when having a curry or chinese, because that would be just disgusting!

    Chip butty with gravy has to have salad cream on!

    I can eat just plain pasta/rie or it mixed with almost any cooked veg, when we're skint or using up the freezer contents I like just rice cooked with some stock and a handful of mixed veg.

    Corned beef and tomato sauce toasties, oh my new fave cheese and onion chutney toasties :D

    DPs faves I think are eggy bread and fishfinger sandwiches.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    My uncle has museli or cornflakes with orange juice - quite common with people who cant' drink milk too I think. Also with no liquid just yoghurt though I can imagine this is dry!

    I eat some cereals dry as a snack/sweetie/treat ... very nutty muesli, any of the clustery oaty things & Cinnamon Grahams ... wouldn't dream of having them with milk as a cereal

    as a total contradiction to my post above, has anyone tried Butterkist (or similar) with milk as a cereal treat? it's surprisingly delicious :)

    Tuna, mayo and cheese mixed together and dolloped on bread. Toasted under the grill and then with beans on top - Looks disgusting, tastes delicious lol
