On a side note, it used to take AGES for parcels to be delivered to Turin when he lived in America.

Honestly yeah, I love it, I've got a box sitting around from the last office gift exchange because apparently I'm the super predictable guy who always asks for tea 😔 C'mon, I'm old, I'm tired, I work with [bleep] children, at least let me ask for tea 😤

Turin is correct I do like English Breakfast. 

 

Yorkshire Tea is also very good. Care packages for proper tea, Cadburies Chocolate and Iron Bru can be arranged.

 

 

My guy Beard Meats Food is from England and I watch a lot of his eating challenges and there's a lot of English Breakfast.....it looks .....just wrong lololololol..... Mushrooms are gross period (unless the magical kind.... lol) but especially for breakfast lol.   You couldn't pay me enough to even try them or blood sausage...not a freaking chance.... LOLOLOLOLOL

Irn Bru is a bright orange soft drink with more caffeine than Coca Cola. It contains trace amounts of ferric citrate which gives it its colour and its name. It is Scotland's other national drink, in part as many don't realise about the caffeine and are simply addicted to it. It probably tastes most like cream soda, but slightly more fruity and acidic. But mostly just sweet.

Apparently there's Irn Bru fish and chips too but ngl that seems more reasonable than...sending your tuna flakes for a swim with it?

WTF is tea?!?!!?!?

Ironically it is both a drink and a meal. Although not at the same time.

Spoiler

I think, maybe??? Who am I trying to kid? I don't have a clue.

Yeah I don't think it would go with tuna, though to be fair I have never tried it. 

 

Interesting point I forgot to mention that Scotland, along with Inca Cola in Peru, are the only countries in the world where Coca Cola is not the highest selling soft drink. #nationalpride, lol

Ochazuke mixes were a life-saver as a grad student just trying to make egg and rice taste a little different for the week, ngl 😛

Sounds worth a try, although likely too sweet for me.

I looked it up it was interesting to think of adding green tea to food

Ah the student life. For me it was the staple 7p instant own brand noodles. 

 

Which apparently cost 40p now.

Yeah. There's the traditional Hakka thunder tea rice too, but ngl doing up the mix took way more time than my tired grad student self wanted.

when food costs half the mortgage SMH

Ugh, yes. I went to the grocery store this morning and had to keep myself from crying when the cashier told me the total lol. 

(Not really crying; I said that for dramatic effect. BUT, it is almost double what is used to be several months ago.)

I have 3 boys at home so yeah I really notice food costs lol

Oh 3 boys! I cant imagine your grocery bills! My son just turned 12 and he's already begun eating us out of house and home. Eating second dinners like he's a hobbit 😆. My daughter doesn't eat nearly as much.

My daughter as well. My son has always wolfed down huge amounts of food, whatever we having without complaints whereas my daughter doesn't like things cooked, or in sauces, or with dressing, doesn't like fries... So difficult to understand, lol. She does love wraps and noodles though (not together). She must be about to hit puberty though so don't know what changes that will bring.
