As we have veered onto a food theme, what would you choose for your last meal? Me, I am stuck, can't decide between fish and chips, or a full roast. Probably the former, as i have to unashamedly admit I cook the best Sunday roast I have ever had, so would have to cook the roast myself! Of course if I was on death row, I would probably ask for a very slow cooked stew, preferably one that needs 300 days to cook!

Going on your last sentence Epping mate I'd have to go for giant bamboo flower curry, as giant bamboo only flower once every 130 years.
But other than that it wouid be a nice piece of brisket with roast spuds that had been part boiled before roasting, stuffing balls, Yorkshire puds and gravy made from the brisket juices.
I've not been able to eat Yorkshire puds for about 15 years as for some strange reason I suddenly became allergic to them and suffer with IBS for around 3 weeks if I eat them now days, but I'm guessing if it was my last meal that wouldn't be a problem would it.

{Ed001's Note - do you make them yourselves or buy them in? Only ones bought in will have chemicals in them that cause the allergies. Make them, they are dead easy to do mate, then you can control what goes into them and find what triggers your problem if you are still getting a reaction. It is probably the flour though as they stuff it full of artificial crap these days.}

Hi Ed001 mate, when it first stated I had no idea what was causing it but after a while realised it was every time I had a carvery, initially I thought it might be something they put in the gravy but after a while I twigged it was the Yorkshire puddings doing it.
For a while I could eat the ones my missus made at home no problem but then suddenly even they did it, so I accepted me and Yorkshire puds had sadly come to the end of the road in our beautiful relationship, as 3 weeks of my stomach cramping and tieing itself in knots was just to high a price for the initial pleasure of the pud.
It's definitely the flourer doing it mate as I can eat cakes and pastry no problem but for some bizarre reason the good old Yorkshire puddings no longer love me ????.

{Ed001's Note - try organic flour with nothing added.}

I will give that a go at Christmas Ed001 mate, thank you, I'll wait till then just incase as i will have a couple of weeks to get over it if it does cause a problem.
It's funny when Doctors ect ask me if I am allergic to anything and I say only Yorkshire puddings, they all respond by saying " that's an unfortunate allergy "? everyone loves a Yorkie pud????.

{Ed001's Note - hahaha fingers crossed mate.}
