Food

I am eating chocolate digestives dipped in lemon curd yoghurt. It's incredible.

anyone got any other good food tips?

I think a baguette + chorizo is just perfect. Or baguette+serrano / parma ham

Also, diced, boiled potatoes, fried cubes of sausage, and loadsa onion all fried up in a pan + a fried egg on top + 1 litre carton of milk = the best. But possibly my favorite snack of all time is two apples + a package of cottage cheese. mmmmmmmm cheap n fkkin delicious.

That sounds interesting. Will have to try it.

I always forget how nice it is to eat a banana and some chocolate at the same time.

Tahini and honey on toast (halwah/halva on toast basically).

4 parts cumin / 2 parts coriander / 1 part paprika / 1/2 part cinnamon - along with tinned tomatoes and some chopped dates, it's fucking well nice, in a sort of Moroccan sauce way.

Btw what a fucking excellent thread, i can't see why this hasn't been created earlier.

Cyclists aren't big eaters ;)

Choccy digestives with slices of mature cheddar on are ace. And I used to dip kitkats in peanut butter, but then they started to make peanut butter kitkats so now I don't have to :)

Chips with soya sauce (plus optional Lingham's garlic and ginger chilli sauce).

did you get your fee yet?

What the hell do you guys live on. kitkats n pb? cheddar and choc digestives?!?

Peanuts.

Stick a tampon in your mouth before eating anything. It intensifies the flavor apparently.

I saw that Heston bloke do it.

Charlton?

miracle fruit?

BMMF, are you one of those guys that eats lots but doesn't put on weight?

WTF??

i think (hope) he means an unused one...

WTF??

A new one, not used of course, that would be sick.

out in seoul i had live, raw octopus. i so wanted to enjoy it, but it was fucking rank.

I think the point is to dry out your mouth so the "flavour" agents aren't diluted by the saliva in your mouth. Don't know why someone would opt for a tampon though...errg

I'd just fan my facehole with a hairdryer, should get the job done.

a bit like the old "vampire teabag" eh?

@RPM - that's mental. I want some.

@lpg - not really. I don't eat so much now anyway, partly due to not being in my 20s, and partly due to not doing many miles. I used to have a reputation for eating twice as much as anyone else I was dining with (at least), and apparently being near me is akin to sitting next to the radiator...

I managed to put on 2.5 stone the winter I was weight training twice a week, but it involved eating 5 square meals a day plus snacking, including late at night. I grew out of all my clothes, started to lose my neck, looked wrong, and didn't get any faster on a bike (mainly due to spending all my riding time doing free weights in a fucking freezing shack in Walthamstow, like something out of Rocky IV). Pathetic.

Well at least you know a new tampon is clean and sterile, there are a lot worse things to stick in your mouth.
