Subject: RE: BS: Best Things to Do With Velveeta,...
I've never been to America, but my Aunt is American, and when she came here she told me that she couldn't hardly buy 'cheese' or 'bread' at home, everything you could buy in those massive hyperdooper markets was all processed crud. She did leave America many years ago of course. But I was wondering if her anecdotal story, was an exaggeration or actually true....? Britain went through a bad phase during the seventies with hydrogenated lardy marge and white sliced chalky shite, but things do seem to have improved masses - and in recent years especially. We even get continental farmers markets in the highstreets now. I of course bake my own tasty brown bread, which is great freshly broken with meltingly ripe brie >this is a smug self-satisfied smile...<
