    5 Stars FooD Glorious fooD ! Review with images 03/08/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lots and Lots!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages unfortunately ... some!

    Over 2000 years ago Hippocrates said ‘Let food be your medicine and your medicine be your food’. Food fascinates me! The healing properties and the detrimental aspects intrigue me. Which leads me to my Top 10 foods; these are equally due to the preventative and healing properties: as well as the taste! [10] CHOCLATE; I like chocolate occasionally. However, for me I find the qualities contained within quite amusing! Thus chocolate making it into my top 10 !!! ~ One of the major ingredients of the cocoa bean is a stimulating chemical; theobromine. This makes chocolate a mild diuretic and a ... more

    5 Stars I MISS YOU ALL SO 12/05/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages yummy

    Disadvantages Disadvantages underrated and/or overpriced here

    Let me start with an apology and the explanation. The list below is not a list of favourite foods; being a food-obssesive with all the good and bad aspects of that obsession I cannot possibly write a list of 10 favourite foods. However, let me introduce to some foodstuffs that are available in virtually every corner shop and greengrocer in Poland but are either not available here or difficult to find, expensive or, simply terribly underused and underrated. 1) SOUR CHERRIES. I still cannot believe that there is actually a fruit which simply does not seem to exist in Britain in a fresh form. I ... more

    Advantages Advantages Possibly Poetic

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Certainly Cheesy

    "The poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese." G K Chesterton, as quoted by SkyPhoenix. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * While ogling SkyP’s glamorous pic (Well worth a peek, lads, she’s a wick- ed looking blonde and no mistake; In fact, she’s worth a double-take) I spied she’d quoted, just beneath, From Chesterton – that’s Gilbert Keith – A line to the effect that cheese Has been subjected to a squeeze, Edged out by poets right and left, Cold-shouldered, spurned and shunned, bereft Of rhymed attention, small or large.

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages I can eat,

    Disadvantages Disadvantages watch this space...

    Hello? I am Hungary... sorry hungry.... So I am going to tell you what I am going to eat today, that is as at the time I am writing this. Welcome to my kitchen.... It is a pity you are not going to know what I am going to eat tomorrow, or anybody want to try? Who... who.... ok, you, tell me... you don’t know?... Ok... Neither do I, so let tomorrow come, then we’ll (you and I) decide. Jesus said that you should not be anxious about tomorrow, because tomorrow is full of its own anxieties itself, including what we are going to eat. Full stop. Hey, sorry for that diversion, where are ... more

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None for me!

    MY 10 MOST TASTIEST FOODS I do love expressing some of the food I enjoy...from home made dishes to oriental takeaway, from tasty snacks to gorgeous treats. Here are my 10 most enjoyable foods... 1. Home made pasta There's nothing I love more than making my own pasta dish, I'm like a master chef in my own kitchen.

    4 Stars Food for thought...! Such glorious thoughts...! Review with images 20/12/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages delicious, variety, fun, practical...

    Disadvantages Disadvantages can be unhealthy and addictive!

    Food is something the nation needs to stay alive, and what a selection we have to choose from to provide us with our five groups each day! It's really difficult to choose just ten of my favourite foods, as there is so many I love! Unfortunately, some of the foods I often crave are not the healthiest! So don't worry when you look at my list, I don't indulge in these all the time! Ooh, if only I could! So, I came to a conclusion after a long, heard think! In no order, my top ten favourite foods are… 1) rolls 2) potatoes 3) pasta 4) pies 5) cereal 6) s andwiches 7) pizza 8) vegetables and fruit ... more

    5 Stars What is a sandwich? 31/05/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Tasty snack food easy to handle

    Disadvantages Disadvantages If you pile your filling too high it might slide off the bread

    WARNING *** Reading this review might make you want to rush into the kitchen and raid the fridge.***** THE SANDWICH What is a sandwich? A snack food consisting of two slices of bread with a filling. A great British invention. It is said the sandwich was named after John Montague, fourth Earl of Sandwich, who' s cook invented the modern sandwich in 1762. The Earl was gambling one evening and was too involved to leave a card game to have a meal. He ordered bread, cheese and meat to be brought to him so he could continue his game. His inventive cook provided him with roasted meat between two ... more

    5 Stars I love food :-) Review with images 01/02/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Absoulutly georgous and mouthwatering food.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages calorific and not good for the waste.

    My Favourite Top 10 Foods? Mmmm This was always going to be a difficult choice, but after reading some other Ciao reviews on "my top ten foods" i decided i would attempt to write one myself. I am perhaps the worlds best food lover, luckily i dont seem to put any weight on, which is an extremely good thing, as i am almost constantly munching away. So, i have tried to write out my top 10 favourite foods, it was really quite difficult and i have sort of made each one a catogry. My fave's change weekly so I am writing what i like just now..please note these are in no order, as that would have been ... more

    4 Stars I love food! Especially the healthy sorts! 12/05/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Its food - most people like food!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages There are a couple of food types I don't like!

    Hmmm food! I love it very much! I do try to keep to a healthy eating regime though and manage to stay at a size 8 (though still in size 10 after recently giving birth)! I am not into diets just healthy eating - it is quite useful that..... A - I have a savoury tooth B - I have a fast metabolism (though this could be due to the foods I eat) Many people think that to maintain a healthy diet only BORING foods can be included but I have a habit of jazzing the more boring foods up but still keeping them healthy. I have compiled a list of my top ten foods below - see what you think... 1) Creamy mash ... more

    5 Stars Life is Like a menu, never know what to pick next! 14/11/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages There's some good restaurant reccomendations there, my favourites

    Disadvantages Disadvantages May make you hungry, most of the restaurants are in Essex which is a bit tricky for many of you!

    Mmmm, food. One thing I will never be is a dieter. I eat fairly healthily (honest), but there's no way I'm nibbling on a lettuce leaf while my date/male friends get to pig out in front of me. Forget it mate!! I go for breakfast with one of my closest blokey type friends most days, (oi! Not a post anything breakkie you dirty beggar), and will easily match anything he eats. In short, I enjoy my food, and prefer to be happily ever so slightly podgy than lamp-post thin and living on salad. So here is the ultimate list of ten of my favourite foods. Enjoy, and remember it's not in any particular ... more
