DA Baracus Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Why when folk talk about panic buying is it always bread and milk that are referred to first? Do folk usually munch through loads of bread and drink loads of milk? Why is it felt that these are vital foodstuffs, and does inclement weather mean they eat more of them than they usually would? Perhaps they’ve read too many Broons comics. In a genuine emergency they would be shite things to buy as they have short shelf lives. You’d be better with tinned produce and things like pasta and rice. Only utter morons panic buy anyway. Probably the same types who fight each other on Black Friday for a shite TV they don’t need and who would queue up overnight for the latest iPhone.

Bairnardo Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I went to my local shop there. No bread, milk or eggs in stock. However, I panic bought some double cream and some parmesan, meaning I now have all I need for an emergency carbonara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got an aubergine too so plan to roast slices with some passata and a parmesan breadcrumb crust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Dear God... There is no cream in a carbonara, you fucking philistine. Italian chefs vary on this I find. I appreciate that a lot of folk use only egg yolks, however a timy splash of cream makes it palatable to Baby Bairnadette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to the tiny Falkirk Supporter, being an absolute failure at carbonara won't be a huge disadvantage during an atomic holocaust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
