Oh alright then, food it is . . . The balsamic Unit needs to find is the stuff that never begins life as vinegar, (it's called tradizionale) it passes directly from grape juice to balsamic by means of distillation and aging. There are many cheaper 'balsamics' which are made using vinegar and dollied up to taste similar but they are not the same - I suspect Unit you've been trying these cheaper ones out.
Now, anybody got any good recipes they are willing to share?

Huum I could do with the ultimate recipe for the archaeologist's site hut tea ( the one that does not send you to the bathroom for three hours after drinking it). Oh and it must be cheap and for preference free from any monetry requirements

If you mix vinegar into vanilla icecream you get white strawberry icecream!

What happens if you add Worcestershire Sauce? On the subject of tea as mentioned by Wax and icecream i recently saw a powdered green tea (sencha) icecream - must taste foul, or maybe not - have any of your readers had a similar experience?

I have encountered said green tea ice cream during a Japanese sojourn. Didn't taste of anything much, truth be told. Haagen Dazs have it as a standard flavour over there. I did note with interest that the Japanese are fond of sprinkling ice cream-based desserts with cornflakes. The black sesame ice cream looked pretty sinister - jet black.
Once I'd had the horsemeat sushi, everything else seemed quite palatable (bar the minced cartilage burger-on-a-stick thing).

Did you have jellyfish?
Before you answer that one let me get a bucket. Even asking that one is making me feel ill.

Did it have tofu chunks in it? Like some sort of abominable travesty of chocolate chip ice cream.

Try 1/2 honey 1/2 butter with curry powder nice but then sour beer is the way to go. As for this tradizonali vinegar, is it seems to me there was a time before glass bottles I bet its all an EU standards scamand all this 12 years in a cast and 25 seems a bit prescriptive next you will be telling me that theres an authentic.
