I am quite partial to salted caramel fudge when not twiddling my finger spinner fidget toy or slow roasting fucking pork belly.

And to think you used to give Cameron a hard time for this.
Pulled pork, pulled any meat for that matter.
Where the fuck did that come from and why is it so popular

Yeah, what the actual fuck???
Oh FFS so it’s MY fault then?
Taught that trick to Gordon back in 2005 while we were at an after party with a bunch of hosties. (#namedroppingthread)
Pulled Pork/Meats yeah what the actual fuck, but equally on that topic, when did the Dodgy Burger Van become a Street Food Truck
Meanwhile, when did Continental Drift speed up so much?
When did Australia in Europe become a thing? Do they want to replace us or something?

The newish thing is Beetroot in everything! Chocolate cake is not a new one, but it is turning up in smoothies, fruit smoothies and it blinking works.
Now salted caramel has been going into my cheesecakes for about 3 years, but also my latte, love the stuff! I blame Costa for the outbreak in these things!

Paying with Cucumbers?
What the FUCK is this all about now?
Jeez H. It’s EVEN spread down here.
At 10 quid +++ a pint normally I’m off down the shop!
On May 17, a collection of 35 Dubai restaurants and lounges will accept a cucumber as form of payment in exchange for a selected mixed beverage.
Think we’re pulling your leg? According to their Facebook page, DXB Cucumber Day’s aim is to transform “the humble green fruit into exchangeable monetary units."
You don’t have to pay money. You literally have to hand over a cucumber to your server. It is, however, limited to one cucumber per person. Better head to the grocery store.
Here is a guide on all restaurants where you can pay with cucumbers in exchange for a selected mixed beverage:

Back to the original now… Salted Caramel.
If it was marketed by Worthers as in “Worthers Salted Caramel” I would suspect it was a covert government sponsored conspiracy to create a dangerously unhealthy confectionary to increase the mortality rate of us superannuated folk.
By that token I won’t be touching any of the stuff.
Cloudy eggs. Poached eggs with a meringue type surround (without the sugar). I blame the freaking Hipsters.

If I’m about, at home on Saturday night I will be watching “The Eurovision Song Contest” as usual.
Just to make the evening more palitable, I won’t have listened to any of the “songs”. I always give that bit a miss but enjoy the voting process. The political and racial bias is staggering along with the hilarious attendant highs and lows of the ever hopeful contestants.
Now that Brexit has had time to sink in I’m forecasting “ROYAUME-UNI… Nul Points”

Just googled Gordon Ramsay’s Jizz cake recipe, no results 
Thought it would be a cool surprise pudding for Sunday. You can’t buy his jizz in my local Sainsburys though … As I discovered.
Cheers Dude, your username has me worried though 
The description and review are great.
Product Description.
Semen is not only nutritious, but it also has a wonderful texture and amazing cooking properties. Like fine wine and cheeses, the taste of semen is complex and dynamic. Semen is inexpensive to produce and is commonly available in many, if not most, homes and restaurants. Despite all of these positive qualities, semen remains neglected as a food. This book hopes to change that. Once you overcome any initial hesitation, you will be surprised to learn how wonderful semen is in the kitchen. Semen is an exciting ingredient that can give every dish you make an interesting twist. If you are a passionate cook and are not afraid to experiment with new ingredients - you will love this cookbook!
Review.
This recipe book is very practical, it saves on tissues and allows me to use all of my natural harvest and put it to a good use, whereas otherwise it would get wasted. - review on lulu.com
