The constant scraping on the frying pan has led to the purchase of a new one. This, somewhat larger pan, remains clear of the ingrained muck spoiling the older, and so far successful, pan. However, the old required changing, and this has appeared.
The impressive looking picture does not take away from the fact that this 'Extra Lean Beef Medallion Steak' can taste just like any other kind of slop I cook, no matter how many spices are added. Still, it is healthy which is something.
Tesco is quite useful at times. It seems to me they have taken the place once owned by 'Woolworths,' no long departed. Not quite the same approach but the sort of place almost everything for the house can be found, usually.
Looking around in the gloom of the afternoon I can see many items that originated in Tesco. Of course, while the shop is useful it is also limiting in that only items that sell will be found there. Those that sell slowly or feebly will never return. I noticed |Sainsburys has the 'Byline times' the other week, but so far no sign of the latest edition. Possibly it has not arrived, possibly not enough copies sold last time. Too many Tories here to even have heard of that magazine. Possibly 'W. H. Smiths' will have it, they will sell anything, even if they are calling themselves 'WHS,' these days.

Oddly enough I bought a new frying pan too....and know what you mean about things that don't sell well disappearing from the shops!
Last Christmas our big local supermarket bought in proper French cognac, all twelve bottles of it....it was a reasonable price so I bought one...Leo went shopping the next week and the price had been halved...so he bought the lot, most of which seems to be still with us. This Christmas? No cognac.
Likewise walnuts in resealable packets....
What you call slop looks all right to me!
Fly, All that cognac just sitting there...
