Sleeps,on a serious note brocolli is well known for it’s anti-cancer properties but make sure you steam it rather than boil it.If you haven’t got a steamer it’s really worth investing in one.They’re not that expensive.
Grenadiers known for their courage because early grenades had a tendency to blow up early and grenadiers had to get fairly close to the enemy.
The British Grenadier also known for bravery after John(?) Churchill led them to retake a position with fewer men than had originally been defending the position lost to the enemy.
Emms, on your “reduced fat humous” (btw, I would spell humous that way, Jamie Oliver – sorry Justa! – spells it hummus), whoever thought it was a good idea to reduce the fat, it’s tahini and extra virgin olive oil, both “good for you” and humous wouldn’t be humous without a good hugging of both of them.
(I don’t like humous, it’s the chickpeas, I don’t like the texture.)
what is it re the texture that you don’t like fifty? the sloppiness?
not having a blender i just crush them crudely with a fork when i make it, gives it a different feel to it, much chunkier, but tastes fine.
interiorbc says :
Pomegranate juice sounds good…I don’t know if you lot can get cranberry juice (not drink) but it has lots of good vitamins.
All brassicas good for anti cancer properties…all dark green leaf veg too.
Blueberries also. They are very good straight out of the freezer at this time of year.
I’m fine with sloppy, Emms, it’s the “coat your tongue and teeth” thing that chickpeas do. I love dips and we have a toaster at w**k so I could just slip a pitta in for a couple of mins, lunch done. If I liked humous.
Know what you mean, Emms, I’d say stick with it, by the end of ep 2 you’re sure who’s who and then new ones in ep 3 and it starts to get proper lively. Uhtred’s never sure who he is, it seems to me, which makes it all the more interesting. 😉
tippity toodles !

“Thiss iss not juice: This iss drink.”
ah, Sleeps, i see you’ve already discovered the problem,
he may have been trying to help you,
a juice is pure juice, usually reconstituted from a frozen concentrate,
anything with the word ‘drink’ in the title can be just about anything, usually means loads of added sugar and water,
i once bought some blackcurrant juice drink, and the ingredients showed there were no blackcurrants of any sort in it, just ‘flavour’.
“my blog is all about women empowerment and women related issues. ”
i wonder which newspaper she reads?
Yes, I see the difference now, Emms.
hehe
My hunt continues …
whatcha doing with the pommy juice Sleeps, drinking it, or cooking with it?
bathing in it? nah, a litres not quite enough.
The contents are 10% apple but no sign of an apple on the carton.
Funny ole world.
She’s giving herself a vaginal douche with it Emma.
Pom juice is a huge anti-cancer thingoid.
I think it may be one of the super-foods which can actually shrink a lesion.
Don’t quote me on this. I’m getting a few things wrong these days.
Oi!
Cheeky pants.
Still don’t know why Bru’s standing amongst all those bog roles at the top of the thread.
*mutter mutter*
some people
Tescos are canny,
they advertise ‘Pomegranite Juice’ on the website, at just over a quid
ingredients are ,
“Water, Pomegranate Juice (32%), Apple Juice (13%), Aronia Juice (5%), Vitamin C, Sweetener (Sucralose), Flavouring”
# Yeuch.
Only by expanding the picture that comes with it, can you read the label which says,
” POMEGRANATE JUICE drink.”
Paul ! 🙂
100% pom juice, Sleeps:
https://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=266828570
It’s expensive but I guess you’d have a glass a day.
apart from the specialist ‘health food’ type shops, Morrisons appears to be the next best bet,
they do a 700ish ml bottle of pure for three and a half quid,

Ha, snap, Emms, but Tesco’s 5p cheaper. 🙂
Vid here of how a pomegranate should be opened, it takes a min but there’s not all the bottom bashing necessarr:
Broccoli even.
on the food front,
my usual lunchtime pot of humous tasted really bland today,
eventually i notice the tiny little sticker on it saying Reduced Fat.
Why can’t the slimmers just eat less of it, ? silly f’ers
i’ve come close to accidentally buying gluten free stuff too, only noticing the label at the last minute,
and several times i’ve accidentally bought sugar free stuff, which goes straight into the bin,
cool vid,
Did you know ?
that hand grenades and Grenadiers, are named after the pomegranate !
Slleps,there’s been some medical research which suggests that grapes are especially good for killing prostate cancer cells.

I didn’t, Emms, but it makes sense. That’s one for Susie Dent. 😉
Where’s that Chowperson gone ?

You take care Mrs Chow and stay positive 🙂

Sorry, not JO, he spells it “houmous”, it’s the BBC spells it hummus.
I still don’t like it. 😉
Some cock nearby here is setting off fireworks. On a Monday night in March.
the G. is still chuntering on about that newsreader funny vid,
– anyone who assumed the woman was the nanny is Racist, ( because the G. considers nannies to be sub human – well they are, working class, innit )

Probably celebrating the birthday of their goldfish, or summat, fiddy.
ooh i say, i got 900 red arrows today , on the Mail, for praising the royal family 🙂
some see the paper as being rabidly royalist, but they’re stranger than that..

“When we think of cranberry juice most of us automatically think urinary tract infections (UTIs). Glam, we know, but, you’ll be surprised to know …”
I’m fine with sloppy, Emms, it’s the “coat your tongue and teeth” thing that chickpeas do. I love dips and we have a toaster at w**k so I could just slip a pitta in for a couple of mins, lunch done. If I liked humous.
Cranberry juice (proper juice) is widely available here, Inty, it was a “magic bullet” thing a few years ago.
” it’s the “coat your tongue and teeth” thing that chickpeas do.”
is that not the tahini/sesame paste, rather than the chickpeas? It does have a funny kinda effect, a bit like custard powder 🙂
i like it, sometimes eat a spoonful from the tub as i’m passing by,
for me, chickpeas themselves are more similar to beans in texture, just a bit firmer.
am watching The Last Kingdom, i forget who recc’ed it, looks promising so far.
Vikings are nasty.
That was me, Emms, I’ve watched series 1 twice, series 2 starts on BBC and Netflix this week. 🙂
The Saxons have their moments. Wait until you get to the Ubba battle, that’s all I’m saying.
i’m liking it so far, first episodes can be tricky, having to introduce the main characters, faster than they kill them off

A little lately, that’s a grand picture, Bill 🙂
Bedtime !
