What's mildly irritating you today?

Sandwich cream?

You mean Miracle Whip?

[Gravdigr]

I thought the exact same thing, kinda.

I think it's different though.

I was thinking about this stuff:

Kraft Sandwich Spread...

water, vinegar, sugar, soybean oil, chopped pickles, modified food starch, contains less than 2% of salt, eggs, natural flavor, mustard flour, red bell peppers, xanthan gum, potassium sorbate and calcium disodium edta (as preservatives), spice, paprika, garlic, onions, turmeric, oleoresin paprika.

Heinz Sandwich Spread is a blend of salad cream and relish popular in the Netherlands and Britain. It is classified by the manufacturer as a sauce or relish. The relish ingredients are carrots, celery, gherkins, red peppers and mustard in a finely diced spreadable form. In this respect it is similar to spreadable piccalilli, but milder in flavour. The salad cream base results in a more tart flavour than similar mayonnaise-based sandwich spreads found in the United States.

I suppose a more accurate description would be salad dressing.
Since the nation's trendsetters are now using it as a sandwich filling, the marketing bods at Heinz wish to call it 'Sandwich Cream'.
Vinegar sandwich, vicar?

They are so missing the boat ....... package the same product twice, once as Sandwich Cream and once as Traditional Salad cream. Increased audience, increased £££

[Griff]

Yep. They'll probably lose some salad cream customers...

My Dad's uncle worked in a putty factory in Beverley, Yorkshire.
He said that the only difference between oak putty and elm putty was seven shillings and sixpence a barrel.

Another day another irritation.

When attempting to access aspendailynews.com I get this:



Similarly, clicking on the wnep.com link in Griff's post prompts this response:

'Sorry, this content is not available in your region'.

I thought that I'd have a go via startpage.com where a proxy can be used. No luck there either.
Once again I shall have to invoke the 'embuggerance' word.

Try right clicking on the link and going to "Incognito Window".

Unfortunately that doesn't work. I'd concluded that IP addresses might have been the stumbling block here.
A search has come up with an article from the (UK) Evening Standard...

“We do identify EU internet protocol (IP) addresses for the purpose of determining whether to direct you to USA TODAY NETWORK’s EU Experience.”

Evening Standard.

Sorry about that, I'm just waiting for that to happen here.

Ever meet a woman that everyone likes, is always smiling, never a bad word about anyone, and brightens the day of everyone she encounters?
I have. I went to her funeral today.

[glatt]

That sucks. Sorry Bruce.

[BigV]

The poem is pretty...

I'm sorry you're missing your friend, xoB.

(I hope I don't presume too much. The poem seems bright and hopeful. Surely she will be missed.)

[Clodfobble]

Sorry, Bruce.
