On Menu Roulette

On Menu Roulette

Eating out recently, and unable to make up my mind, I found myself reading all the way to the bottom of the menu.

"Some products may contain allergens"

"Yeah, thanks for that", I thought to myself, before noticing that some wag had added "Good luck finding them".

Of course, this could open up a whole new concept for eating out: The risk that you might actually get KILLED TO DEATH through a poor choice of starter.

They tried this not terribly long ago in London, where the radioactive sushi proved to be a big hit with Russian guests, but how bringing the idea to your local Toby Carvery, where they can hope to attract a whole new audience of extreme sports enthusiasts.

"Some products may contain napalm"

I just don't want to be the person who cleans the toilets.

Isn't that simply McDonalds?


Also... FIRST!

Some foods, like some workplaces, may contain nuts.

I think if you're serving napalm, cleaning the washroom might just be the least of your problems.

But think how hygenic it would be if the lavvy pan's got fired up like that at every visit - no more transfer of germs, no splash back and since shite burns less solid waste.

My God man, you're on to something!

Not mad - just Pure Mental Genius.

Also.... Round my way, they don't call the upright revolving spit you see in Kebab shops "The Jobbie Pole" for nothing.

Donna - Thank you, that is excellent. I'll keep it quiet though - half of our local economy would fail if people went off doners. Even Stuart Maconie remarked on the abundance of fast food shops along one street here in "Pies and Prejudice".

Jobbie pole. LOL.

Have no fear. Your toilet will be cleaned by Juan Sheet!

I think I had one of those napalm sandwiches yesterday. Have finally managed to get away from the lavvy.

This whole post was just an excuse to show that photo of a flaming toilet wasn't it?
