Fruit .... we have bananas and tangerines, lots of from Tescos. But not quite so much grapes and/or blueberries in our breakfast muesli ... we miss the market stalls.

Sorry Pauline, but with extra time on my hands the kettle is on more often for a cup of tea, and you can't have a cup of tea without some biscuits to dunk.....

Re: Have your culinary habits changed?

My culinary habits have changed because the choice of things like McDonalds, KFC, fish and chips, kebabs has been taken away due to the virus lockdown.

I don't feel healthier because the crap I was eating before has just been diverted onto creme eggs and cheese ha ha

Note to self : Eat less crap, move more...

You can keep the Kebabs and KFC Bread, but I'm missing McDonalds and the Fish & Chips....Oh! and that delicious steak pie I used to have on a Saturday from the Garden Centre......

Don't be too hard on yourself Bread and think of all those ladies who turned away the dessert trolly after dinner on the Titanic!..

Definitely missing Fish & Chips! These I usually only have as a 'treat' once very month to six weeks, that was about to happen when lockdown came into effect so it's now getting on for nine weeks since I last had this 'treat'. I cooked myself home-made fish and chips earlier this week but even with mushy peas and Chip Shop vinegar, it just wasn't the same!

It's going to be quite some 'treat' when this lockdown is all over and done with, that's for sure!

Same here Baz, there's a local fish restaurant that sell the best fish and chips I've ever tasted but like you, I limit them to perhaps once a month. I'm just starting to get withdrawal......
