Use a nice, bland oil. I tried it with toasted sesame oil once, and it was a little...bracing.

Personally, I find anything that makes the chips go soggy is Bad™, so shit like gravy just isnt an option. Vinegar makes me feel like my face is trying to implode, so I tend to avoid that too. I have a little (but not too much) salt, then a bit of either mayo or ketchup on the side for dipping.

Also: Mayo. having never had the "proper" stuff, I cant make comparisons to that, but I have discovered this: Full fat Hellmans and Hellmans light are almost indistinguishable. Hellmans extra light tastes like wee-wee.

Not the first time it's been done either. In America during WW2 sauerkraut was renamed 'Liberty Cabbage'. 100% FACT!

It wouldn't surprise me if we'd done something similar though.

I refer you again to my comment about the masses. The masses in India at the moment are burning effigies of the 'said TV show' producers after newspaper reports of racism. Despite 'said TV show' not being shown there.

An effigy of what? The Big Brother Eye or the Channel Four logo? I find both mental images rather ridiculous. At least the spin-off "Jade's Passage to India" would be worth watching.

Also, vinegar is for wimps - I use this:

Don't know what they look like, as I suspect do they. And eating things like that on chips will probably lead to liver failure.

I've just been reading the Jade Goody forums after all the stuff on 'that show'. It seems a few b3tans are having some fun:

Code: Select all

*baldmonkey - I hardly think murder is a laughing matter, Robin.
Next you'll be laughing about paedophilia, mental disabilities and sodomy.
Tsk.
The internet is terrible.

*robin johnson - its funny you should say that, because i just fancied shaggin g a 6 yr old downs kid up the arse

I'll have you know, I never have used the term "Freedom Fries" nor have I heard anyone else use the therm. I dare say it was just asshat congressmen who renamed it in the cafeteria at the capitol. The same type of person who berated the French for not supporting us in Iraq are usually the first people to call him "Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys" or something like that.

that, afaik it was only done in govt. buildings (and probably a few stores)

I've only said Freedom Fries in a mocking manner, meaning mocking those who coined the term.

Never knew that, and that makes a lot more sense to me, as the general sense of opinion over Iraq in the States comes across to us Brits as very divided (despite what Bush and his gang would like reflected)

I think we get a very slanted view of the U.S over here, as mass media is very different to reality in the states, whereas over here stuff that's discussed in the mass media is (more than often) a realistic overview of what the "masses" are thinking.

The reason the froggies werent in the war is that up until 2 months before they were still selling the iraqis surface to air missiles, ammunition and all sorts of arms. Ive seen pics of the australian special horses bringing back a french SAM missile on the back of a truck taken by a friend of mine who was out early on in the whole shebang.

FACT: Every household in the US is like Friends or Everybody Loves Raymond.

I always imagined the term Freedom Fries was only used my ignoramuses and the people that want to keep them happy.

BTW: The effigies looked like this

A crude, human shaped thing with some writing on the front.
