Veggie/vegetarian/full on meat eater/which are you and why ?

Nope. Wot @raleighnut says is correct.

The best quality italian pasta is made from Durum wheat. Semolina is just a coarse milling of said wheat and is used for a multitude of things. Including that stodgy staple of school dinners desserts - semolina pudding. It's very interchangeable with polenta, which is essentially the same sort of thing, but made from corn, not wheat.

We had a different version (same tune) that went like this

Fetch the bucket quick
It's too late
I've done it on my plate

I loved school dinners.
Now, I don't eat meat, but I eat fish. Been like that for the last 30 years. Love this time of year, I BBQ most nights, (although often eat inside) and love fish done this way.

I regard myself as an omnivore and eat pretty much anything and everything. If I visit a restaurant and it has anything on the menu that I have not tried before I have a compulsion to order it.

The change in diet internationally has caused and is causing big problems.
Ultra-processed crap being passed off as real food is a massive problem literally.
I've never seen this before but this clinic has provided a 'big' persons chair.

I haven't eaten meat for nearly two months now, though I still have the occassional cod steak, prawns or tinned fish. I've been buying stuff like..

or Quorn meals, or simply making my own own veggie, or veggie and fish meals.

I went to my local hospital, 7 years ago for a pre hernia op' health check. I cycled the mere 6 miles up there as I was still 'a cyclist' then. I took my bike into the waiting room which was ok with the staff etc and sat down on a 'big persons' chair as the others were taken up. After a minute or so a big person told, not asked me to shift otherwise they'd sit on me!
