In truth it is the total opposite. Hardly ever do people from Manchester go to Liverpool. I must admit I am from Manchester and I have gone to Liverpool quite a bit but only cos I went to uni there, however the Trafford Centre is full of people from Liverpool moaning about 'manc prices'.

I'm sorry but that is bollocks. :)

I went to Liverpool and was quite afraid. A lot of scary people with angry clenched faces. I thought I'd die there.

And I always think of AA Gill's quote about Liverpool: "A place so horrible they named it after offal and a pub game oiks play that always ends in fights."

And eat bean burgers before drinking bottled water.

That is also a true fact.

organic bean burgers

See, you're mentioning those things and accusing me of eating them, but you're the one who actually knows what the f**k they are. Some kind of freaky eco-food or something? Leeeeeeeevil?

All this mention of food has made me go all Super Sizers, cue the bloke with the deep voice -

A Northdweller's Supper

Starter -

Lard butties in gravy

Main Course -

A whippet and ferret pie cooked in lard and served with scraps and mushy peas and gravy

Dessert -

A punch up round the back of 'Corker's Nightclub'

Best served with electronic ankle bracelets and a bruise around your girlfriend's eye 'where she fell down the stairs'.

We can close the thread now, nothing to see here, move along people.

Fairtrade organic bean burgers.

(What the f**k is a bean burger, by the way?)

Something homosexual people enjoy eating my dear :)

Sick

Bean burgers - the clue is in the name. Burgers made of beans.

They cause many bottom burps and foul smells.

Then it is a definite Sick.

You say that, but the phrase 'arse burgers' does not conform to that logic.

What sort? Baked? Runner? Broad? String?

I don't bother with organic, unless you count the stuff I grow myself. Fair trade is good, although probably too socialist for Aaron's liking. And a Bean Burger, like Ruby says, is a burger made of beans.

[defence]When I eat a bean burger, I don't think. Eugh! Tastes nothing like a beef burger! And that's because it's not trying to replicate beef, the flavour is mixed (spicy) beans. [/defence] They're nice sometimes, but nothing to write home about.

Dear Mum,

I ate a bean burger today. It was OK, not really worth writing this letter for though...

If you want fake meat why not have quorn or those weird steak mushrooms with the texture of flesh?
