Oooh look, the tweed jackets and leather elbow patches are back in town, eating their lad-de-dah seaweed and tofu frittata ! :thumbup: :D
I reckon you could do a pretty good matar paneer with tofu for the squeaky cheese in the cheesy peas. :thumbup:
Tofu is never an acceptable alternative for cheese, nor meat for that matter.
Oh, I dunno, if the question that needs to be answered is 'What's a good source of protein/amino acids for a vegetarian?' Then tofu might well be an acceptable answer. :thumbup:

(My frittata had feta on it, not tofu anyway :lol: ).

There'll be a gap in the map in Cambridgeshire where it used to be. :thumbup:

(They aren't allowed to make Stilton in Stilton because it's in the wrong county :wtf: ).

Ok. I have some potted Stilton in the fridge that's been there since Christmas and it's been so long that I am now afraid to lift the lid.

Grey, white, pink or green fuzz are warning signs.

I think the ammonia smell is a good (bad?) sign, so don't hold your nose!! :D

Also, if it was Christmas just gone, that's really really NOT very long for cheese - especially blue. I'd be very surprised if it's off :!: :?: :!:

That's sad. I would have scraped the fuzz off and eaten the good stuff underneath!! :angelic-green: :angelic-green:

Why do we use cc and litre for engine sizes? We should be consistent and use millilitres and litres.

(Or centilitres, :D)
