Black Peas!

[FN-GM]

I was having a conversation with another forum member and i mentioned back peas. The other member had no idea what i was meaning i thought i was strange .

 

Someone a few weeks back from Manchester thought they was from the Caribbean. Its Lancashire food by the way.

 

Do you actually know what black peas are?

I like to have a white pudding & chips supper when I go up to Edinburgh. My wife's Scottish and introduced me to it back in the eighties.

Can't get white pudding in Warwickshite....

 

:-(

The shops can buy it frozen but its not popular enough.

[tech_guy]

I know :-( & it's got to be the real thing anyway. We found a shop selling it in Leeds once but it didn't taste the same.

[FN-GM]

Probably wouldn't but when you do up to Scotland it will taste better if you don't have it often.

The thing that really bothers me when ever I go up north is that the pubs insist on spoiling what would otherwise be a really good pint by using sparklers - so even the southern beers end up tasting creamy like boddingtons!

[tech_guy]

Boddingtons - yuk!

[russdev]

welsh cakes is the thing I like as don't visit wales much and don't see or welsh rels very much means don't get them very often.

 

But have just found out that sainsbury sell oreo biscuits.

[mac_shinobi]

yep thats them i take it you didn't know

 

Nope - google is thine friend and n all that lol.

 

No clue how anyone can eat any stuff like that including black pudding yucky

[FN-GM]
