Are you sure you don't want a savoury sausage mix?
Did you ever try my* recipe for Jeera** Chicken? It's neither hot nor spicy and very moreish. Dead simple, too.

* Mr's Dinn's recipe
** Pronounced Zeera

For regular roast chicken, I just use a mix of onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper rubbed in with a blob of olive oil.

Hi jen not tried it but i will save the recipe lol i saved the kfc fake away but i struggle with kfc as i had food poisoning from it many years back we never had chciken for over 15 years , it was really bad my veins collapsed i ended collapsed in the toilet wife called the ambulance not nice being found like that lol , worst was that i ate 6 piece that day wife ate one and i gave brad my gsd a pieec and wife came home form the hospital and poor brad only time he was ever left alone well we had to have all new hallway carpet and when my wife went in because she screamed she said he lay flat down and cowared , he was not well treated before we got him , so hence never ate it since but now we eat nothing but chicken really so i am hoping i can do the fake one as i am cooking it i trust my own cooking , i am just not sure about the smell because for many years we had to avoid the chicken cooking isle in stores i use to start reaching just the smell , it was that bad in the hospital i was moved to a side ward on my own with own toilet the works and i kid you not even the doctor went white and had to leave .

Thanks for the sharing as i say i will try yours i also love a bbq seasoning i use to buy in bulk from a couple of compies then found they had start popping chilli in no mention on the label and it was when my mouth started to burn i contacted them and they said oh we improved the recipe .

Jeera Chicken smells nothing like a chicken rotisserie and nothing like KFC. If you don't love it, I'll refund everything you paid me You could halve the chillies in the recipe. But it really has no heat.

Thanks,
I totally agree that the Stockwell baked beans are way up there for taste and quality. It seems a recent thing that the juice content was increased to about a 2cm puddle in the tin. But at least the sauce is not too watery and is still flavoursome.

I'll miss your contribution.
Sorry to see you may no longer be able to post here. But if you can, do.

Understand that I was not calling YOU racist when I reported your content. As far as I can tell, NO-ONE called you racist. It was the content of your post which was judged.

Went to Aldi yesterday to get Everyday Essentials wholewheat bread, 39p, but the date was tomorrow. The shelf was full so it's not like it had been in ages and was nearly gone. Both in one is 75p but had an extra day so I got that. Not sure if I was just unlucky because I don't usually check the date. A loaf lasts me about 8 days so I freeze about a third of it. Any tips for cheap bread with good shelf life? I'm not sure if the EE had a smaller date that's longer, didn't have my glasses. Do some have 2 dates?
I think Tesco have cheap bread, but not tried it. I could do. Sainsbury's is aboout 85p I think. I like the EE as it's not as brown, plus it's very cheap.

ALDI have the very cheap bread at 39p, but we much prefer the 79p stuff. It freezes well if you do so straight away. It's not bad bread at all and comparable to the Roberts bread we used to eat when it was sensibly priced.
ASDA also have a 39p offering, but that falls apart when buttered, so we gave up on that.

Incidentally, LIDL have a little of that Bellarom Gold coffee in stock. £2.59 for 200g and pretty good. I thought we'd seen the last of that. ALDI also still have Alcafe Gold at £2.39. Comparable to Kenco smooth.

I often get nice loaves of bread in my ToGoodToGo magic bags. About 50% of bags have at least one loaf and we get a variety which makes a change from same cheap bread every day. The bags only cost £3.09 and I'm planning on buying at least one a week. Here was this week's haul.

Just been to tesco and the 5kg sugar has gone up from £3.75 a couple of weeks ago to £5 today. Needless to say I didn't buy any. It was just £3.25 a few months ago
