    Smile Would you kiss this man?

    On Saturday, idly awaiting my turn in the checkout queue at the insanely busy branch of Sainsburys in the middle of Cambridge I watched the man in front of me empty his basket on to the belt. It contained

    3 * Jars garlic & onion passatta
    2 * Big bags fresh garlic & herb tagliatelle
    1 * Big tube garlic puree
    3 * Cloves fresh garlic

    which got me thinking -

    1) Is he going on a trip to Transylvania?
    2) Is there someone he's trying to avoid kissing?

    Dopes anyone else have any strange Supermarket Peep stories to tell?

    Robert

    hey, that could have been me.

    As someone with no sense of smell (and therefore a limited sense of taste) I do tend to like a little food with my garlic

    (I dream of visiting the Stinking rose restaurant some day)

    Although I like garlic it's fine if you ensure you brush teeth and use breath mints afterwards. And because I can't smell I'm doubly carefull I don't reek.. well mostly (ask Gadget.. wouldn't be the first time he's gone to Tuesday night class reeking of garlic after eating at mine )

    My thought was that at least there was enough food for two, so would the garlic quantities really matter?

    Mmmm, garlic.........

    Very unimpressed by the lack of garlic ice-cream on the dessert list though.

    Well Garlic and Shots is the place for you two then! Garlic Honey icecream anyone?!

    Beo - fancy a visit here a week on Friday? It would probably ensure that only I got to dance with you in the evening...

    I love garlic in my foods. But I do try and avoid it before dancing. Because even with breath mints and brushing, I am sorry to say, Garlic smells come through the pores. So if you perspire, you will wiff anyway...

    True, but that'll be if you've eaten it in the last few days I expect, not an hour or two before dancing as you won't have had time to digest it surely?

    Re: Would you kiss this man?

    And I thought I liked garlic.

    My sister and her 'friends' often play a game where you pick up a random object off the shelves in the supermarket (in this instance pink sparkly thongs), then throw it in to a random persons trolley when they are not looking. She did this to one bloke in tesco once, he just picked them up, looked at them, then put them bak in!

    Re: Would you kiss this man?

    I love that game.
    I went Tesco with my little girl and my wife, im always up for a giggle but my wife is a tad conservative and my girl just cringes at some of the stuff i play in Tesco.
    last night i put 9 tins of pears in some ladies trolley, i then spent 10 mins spying on her till she reached the till.
    Am i a bad person to find this sort of thing so funny i go weak at the knee's.
    I would recomend everyone tries this at least once.

    Have been there, i can recommend it. The garlic ice cream is quite nice. Not too sure about the garlic beer though. And it does take a day or two for the smell to work it's way through your body.

    That sounds the perfect way to make my daughter cringe with embarassment! Must try it out ASAP.
