Potatoes came to Europe from Peru in the late 16th century, and Britain was eating early versions of the chip – “potato’s boil’d and fried in butter” as described in Robert May’s The Accomplished Cook – by 1660.
There is much to celebrate and rejoice in this.
The ‘meat mind’ meanwhile, derails and distorts! Opting to focus on fucking Mayonnaise!!! (*It should be noted) The invention of the French chef of the Duke de Richelieu in 1756. While the Duke was busy defeating the British at Port Mahon, his chef was creating a victory feast that included a sauce made of cream and eggs, *the bastard.’
Incapable and unwilling to stay on topic, even for the crisp fluffy comfort of mankind’s fried friend there is minor solace in knowing chips enjoyed a run of close to 100 years free from eggy French smearings.
Chips (along with taste) - died in this thread, suffocated by an egg-based condiment at the hands of individuals - likely clad in corduroy!
Fuck you: Duke of Richelieu and you, cords.

The historical context laid bare above does lead to a question - Anyone cooked ships in butter? Salted Butter can never a bad thing can it?
There’s a restaurant in Belgium that cooks them in clarified butter - actual butter would burn at proper chip temperatures

If I get to Lopwell I’m just going to cook clarified butter chips slathered in freshly made mayonnaise

Sirs,
Any semblance of cheer for British chips has evaporated in a cloud of Belgian circle jerk produce. I’m bereft of argument other than to say enjoy your corduroy twilight years.
Insincerely and forever angered

Waterzooi ?
No, it will be this. I don’t want to go anywhere near Waterzooi until I get advice from Mammy!

I really like it too, although Waterzooi is my all time favourite because it was the first meal I enjoyed in Belgium.

Do we really have to have the word “cunt” in every single thread title?
It might be funny once but it’s getting tedious now

I agree, I’m going to edit some titles as it is a bit tedious.
Sorry, the fun police have arrived.
