Rice With Death

How could I have not seen this before?

For about seven years now – SEVEN YEARS – we've been regularly visiting the same takeaway restaurant, and only now do I discover the shocking truth buried deep in a medium-sized font, in a reasonably prominent position near the bottom on the back page:

Dishes on this menu may contain allergies

I don't like those odds.

So, now I'm wondering: is it just the case that some of the dishes that may contain allergies, or am I some sort of miracle of nature to have made it through this many years without even contracting so much as hay fever?

EDIT: And exactly how difficult would it be to include a warning that dishes on this menu may contain peas?

I Know What You're Thinking

And the answer is yes: mild curry flavour.

Not that I see the point of curry coming in anything other than melt your face flavour. But, then again, my ability to eat spicy food does frighten most of the people that I meet. I'm probably lucky that I haven't yet been kidnapped by a travelling circus and put in the freak show.

Mind you, those of us that haven't been kidnapped by a travelling circus for any reason whatsoever are all very lucky.

Anyway, getting back to what's important here, mild curry was the only flavour in the cupboard. It seems that I was wrong yesterday when I stated that we'd bought some more.

Note to self: stock up on Super Noodles before the offer ends.

Thought For The Day

For those of you that this applies to, think about how you've never been kidnapped by a travelling circus, and think yourselves very, very lucky indeed.

For those of you who have been kidnapped by a travelling circus, think about ways to escape whilst maiming as many of the bastards as possible in the process.
