fruit in the Coop


Recommended Posts

I don't know if you heard the splendid Dara O'Brien on The Infinite Monkey Cage a couple of months back: "If we are going to save the world, we need to change our expectations. I come from Ireland where in Dublin, when I was a kid, a glass of fresh orange juice was a starter - literally, you could have the prawn cocktail or a glass of fresh orange juice. Now I get furious if Sainsbury's have run out of fresh kiwi fruit!" The waste we generate in the western world is sinful (self included) - your example is a very pertinent case in point.

    • I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far. I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.
    • Yes, they sound excellent.
    • Maybe the signor in question spotted some hot jacuzzi action and just had to stop in?
