Better bought than homemade

[Julia9054]

Ok. I am really, REALLY bored.
Prompted by some smug woman on Twitter posting her recipe for home made custard creams, what food items do people think are better bought than home made?
My starter for 3:-
Custard creams
Soreen malt loaf
Heinz tomato soup

Bread..... for the simple reason i could never be arsed to make bread.

All bread has its place from the ponciest artisan sourdough to the guilty secret hangover value white sliced!

Although it's passed you can add Hot Cross Buns to that list.

 

[Eziemnaik]

My short list:
Ketchup
Mustard
Cheese

Beer.... I couldn't be bothered making that either. Or wine.
Plus i've never had any home brew of any alcoholic drink that has tasted as good as what i can buy in a shop.

Another vote here for beer.

Dairy products, condiments, biscuits and cordial are my other nominations.

To be honest, most things.

Jaffa cakes.
Do nuts
Ice cream (of any kind)

To be honest, most things.

True, there really is too many to list due to the hassle of making them.

Imagine someone else has home made all the things for you so you don't need to bother.
Going on taste/quality alone, what would still be on your list?
Beer - definitely.

Yes i see your point. Probably curry, neither myself or anyone i know, has ever made me a curry as good as the one from my local Indian takeaway.

I would add that i dont include shop bought curries in that.... they are always crap imo.
