Guest Moomintroll Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 You'll be glad to get Happy Shopper 1 ply (still easily available in a corner shop near you) within the week. That's 2 ply, Euroshopper is the low grade stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all those reports, it was remarkable to see the amount of food that was actually still in stock. Practically every kind of fresh fruit and vegetable imaginable, most products from the fresh bakeries: you could even still get baked beans FFS (Branston and not the shitey Heinz variety as well). With the exception of a couple of genuinely essential items, it seems that the UK public have walked into the shops with a set shopping list in mind and are having a collective meltdown about not getting exactly what they want in the middle of a pandemic. Same experience in Inverness apart from baked beans and potatoes in one shop which were completely sold out, baked potatoes and beans must be a teuchter staple. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just shows that even with all that extra free time, people still can't won't cook. This is only one of many very good points raised as the Great British Public lays its true character bare in these interesting times. Faced with weeks of enforced inactivity, the response is not "hey, now we've go the time we could maybe learn how to cook a few simple dishes which might be better for us and cheaper," but, "This will give us time to watch Game of Thrones all the way through," or "great - I've got a couple of games I've been meaning to play through again." Scum, absolute scum. If only we could target this virus... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd_is_God Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Tbf, making a meal requires being able to buy ingredients. I've not seen a single packet of chicken or pork on a shelf in over a week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, even on the back of a long day eating something like a ready meal doesn't really help nutritionally more often that not, but understandable considering there's only so much left in the tank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I want is some tinned tomatoes and I can do a lot of batch cooking out it, yet Morrisons were selling them at 4 for a £1. I never had a chance of getting near a tin. 2 minutes ago, Savage Henry said: Italy have majorly messed this up.
