Paleo Puddins




Reading a paleo diet website (for boring reasons, I'm not on the diet) and it talks about "eating like a caveman" without agriculture, processed goods, but with whole foods etc. Then it offers me a free e-book: "paleo desserts". My prehistoric knowledge may be lacking, but somehow I don't think cave-dwellers ate many "paleo brownies" and "paleo cheesecakes".

The Tesco Man Cometh




Around a month ago, at 10pm on a week night, Tesco made a food delivery to my flat. 

My girlfriend was stood in the kitchen, hiding, because she was wearing a Dalmatian onesie. She stood in the dog's bed, behind the door and out of sight. 

The Tesco guy arrived and said, "I'll put it in the kitchen." He said nothing as he entered the kitchen, saw my girlfriend, unloaded large bags of dog food, and some human food, before going down to collect the rest of the groceries.

On his return, my girlfriend had disappeared, and Pakkun (the dog) ran in. 

"Oh, you have a dog!" Tesco guy said, cheerily and with a little relief in his voice.

Box o Wine Complaint





I complained about a box of wine. Yes, I drink wine from a box... Good on the supermarket for their response, which clearly shows they've noted my main concerns of the wine tasting "plastic like and bitter".  PS: there was no party, there were no guests, I was drinking it on my own, with cola

"Dear Dr Jones
Thanks for your email. I am sorry the large box of red wine you recently purchased from our store tasted plastic like and bitter . I can understand how disappointing this was you and your guests as you have purchased this several times before without any incident.
I’ve sent you a gift card for £15 this is to cover the cost of the product and a little extra so you can treat yourself the next time you are in one of our stores."
