So you want me to spend a week in ICU hooked up to all sorts of heart monitors then? Fine friend you turned out to be

Talking of walkers crisps, I found a brand of 'chips' here last week, called Crunchers, not sure if they are new, but I got the 'sweet hawaiian onion' flavour, they taste about the closest I have had here to Walkers crisps, yummy!

Oh no....but if it were me I'd be very tempted, unfortunately I'm only going to be in Lomdon for a couple of nights this summer so the chances of fitting in all the culinary delights I mentioned is very slim

I'm going back to the UK in the summer and all of the above foods are on my list of things to eat - hopefully in the first 2 days!

OH brought back some Walkers Builder's breakfast flavoured crisps, Onion bhaji flavoured crisps and chillie and chocolate flavoured crisps - wasn't really impressed with any of them . It was suprising and a little weird to be actually able to taste the egg flavour in the builder's breakfast crisps.

So how many grams of cholesterol is there in a proper slice of bacon? That I'd love to know, so I can take in all my cholesterol for the day in the form of bacon without the heart attack.
A lot depends on the bacon and how you cook it... I much prefer my bacon lean and grilled (broiled for our american friends), probably a lot healther than fatty cut cooked in the frying pan.

Mmmmmmmmm, this was some of the bacon I consumed on my trip home last week.

Hope it makes your mouths water!

Think it just gave me an excuse to show off the fact I could post a picture that wasn't the size of the the earth!
Has actually made me now fancy a bacon sarnie - so have wound myself up!

Couple of nights = 2 days = 6 meals = minimum 4 curries?
