Well - just expanded my tastes a little more. Yesterday I had some scurly with my breakfast. Oats and onions fried in butter! Yummy - and I guess the bonus is that while the butter puts up your cholestrol 1 million % the oatmeal brings it back down again:-)

Remembered some of the dishes my Polish Babshka used to make and realised why I may have some odd tastes. Chickens boiling in the pan - with the head hanging over the side. Scraping the mould of a piece of fatty meat (or was it meaty fat?) before eating it. Cold fish and fried egg sandwiches... Washed down with kislushka (sp???) - Sort of beer made by throwing raisins, old bread crusts and any leftover source of sugar in a bowl and letting it ferment for two or three days. Colour it with instant coffee powder and drink it still warm and bubbling! Ah those were the days.

Hmmm. Hungry now - and its only 9:05 GMT. Curses...
