Hello Mates how are ya??

Im just curious if FOOD is better there in the UK than it is here in the states.. FOOD here is constantly under attack.... GOOD FOOD IS BEING REPLACED WITH "HEALTHY" FOOD that tastes like crap,etc!!!!!

Im wondering: Is your Pepsi and Coke made with SUGAR or this HFCS stuff?? (Stuff tastes better with sugar as its natural)

Im getting quite upset @ all the good tasting food (drinks,etc) i remember being changed to crap

I hope you guys arent having to deal with this also!!

No I don't think it is as flavoursome as it used to be on the whole. In particular I cite strawberries and potatoes, they've definitely lost something. I think supermarkets wanting everything to look perfect has something to do with it, the best looking varieties don't always taste best. Fruit and veg from independent greengrocers generally tastes better but they're becoming few and far between.

I've been using semi-skimmed for years. I recently bought a pint of whole milk and used it to make a cheese sauce. It was amazing. The sauce didn't go lumpy as I was making it and the taste was so creamy. In future I'm using whole milk when I make a milk based sauce.

our fizzy drinks are made with different sugar in the UK. I think our sugar tends to come from a different kind of crop. This makes the sweetness taste different and many american products taste far too sickly and sweet to me.
