Silver fox, please post your "Rot a la carte" with shameful pride.

Yours the "Rot master"

Sorry W**F, I'm currently in negotiations with a number of restaurants on Lordship Lane who have expressed an interest in reproducing these dishes under licence to liven up their menus in the light of recent comments on the forum

I did once glam up a tin of cost cutter beans by chopping an onion into them.

Proper cooking that.

[????]

I had amate who ate fried dog food with onion on more than one occasion...now that is beyond the pale

That wasn't out Newfield Green way was it *Bob*?

Next to the frozen meat shop that sold clear bags of well.. frozen meat, unlabelled

I remember from student days buying a turkey in the Pimlico Tesco on Christmas Eve. By Christmas Day morning, it was largely a vile shade of blue and the smell was rank. Probably a combination of Tesco's useless fridges and our own. But no turkey. Can't remember what we had in the end.

There were a few places that did it.

The Lateshopper on Eccy Road used to.

Even Morrison had a basket of them - before they went all hoity-toity in their push southwards.

Oh, the late shop on Eccy road. Happy memories.

Every shop there was a rot shop.

Did you ever eat in Tilly's Tea Room just up the road from there *Bob*? I may have served you a full english breakfast in another life...

Anything manufactured by "Bobby's" and bought in Budgens, Costcutters, petrol stations, corner shops, etc is pure, pure rot.

[Keef]

Anything "Bernard Matthews" is also rot!

[Jeremy]

And the 90p sandwiches you can buy in the newsagents near the station.

[bigbadwolf]

The mothership of all rot shops has got to be the motorway service station.

[SeanMacGabhann]

when I first arrived in this country - well sort of this country, Swindon - I survived for about 2 years on Bernard Matthews Turkey drumsticks and mash.

Sometimes a pea was involved

I didn't know it was rot at the time. (irish naif) But it didn't make me feel good

[SeanMacGabhann]

I was at a funeral wake last week, Mrs W**F introduced me to an old friend ...

"This is Lisa, you know the one who's mum I was telling you about! used to bend her head down and drink straight the wine box in the fridge door!"

I mean what can you say to that " Oh, yes hello" ( but thinking that is "rotten" )

Mind it was on the Isle of Sheppey & she didn't bat an eye lid!

This relates to the Courgette thread, sorry but this is the Rot shop so ....

LOOK AWAY NOW IF EASILY OFFENDED

I saw a while back a courgette with a condom over it, lying by/in a burst bin open bag of cheap vodka empties ect...

Nice "Rot Shop" purchases I thought however, that particular veg has never been in the same place mentally for me, no sir

W**F

[rcmacf]

The rot shop does appear to be a male preserve. Perhaps not so with the courgette, mind.
