What would you put in Room 101?

Like in Milan’s meme: Not that much as you think. :wink: A blue light doesn’t prevent you from getting to sleep and it doesn’t make it worse instantly. :slight_smile:

@tasse-tee As promised, here are the results of the German crisps jury:

The “pickled onion” flavored crisps have to go to room 101 - the taste was, well, I think this emoji sums it up: :nauseated_face:

The “salt & vinegar” crisps were a little bit odd: Some crisps in the package were very “salty” while others seemed to be flavored with vinegar only. Is this typical for these crisps? Some few crisps had the perfect mixture of salt and vinegar. They tasted really good.

My favorite flavor of the four were the salted crisps (the red ones). I would buy them again. :slight_smile:

So here is my ranking:

  1. salt
  2. salt & vinegar
  3. chilli and lime
  4. pickled onions

… where …

:door: … the pickled onions have to go to room 101.

Interesting verdict! :smiley:

I only notice slight differences in taste between the crisps, sometimes. The main thing I notice these days is that they don’t taste as strong overall as they used to - vinegar-wise, I’d say.

And what if I submit pickles and onions? :thinking:

Could it be that they have flavored the crisps in such a way that the taste changes between salt and vinegar?

Hm… the vinegar flavor was there and quite dominant (partially).

Diane! Please photocopy this letter for me.

(I’m kidding really. You can put what you like in there :slightly_smiling_face:)

If they did, that would be a good selling point.

Each crisp has a unique configuration of salt and vinegar flavour! Giving you a different taste experience every time!

Argh. I had a funny reply to your reply. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I gave the pickeld onions crisps to a relative (without saying the flavor) and he/she hasn’t liked it too. Maybe it’s a German thing. :slight_smile:

Oh yes! :slight_smile: Now I really have to try them again. (And if we ever meet sometime we have to try them both so that you can tell me if the taste is correct. :wink: ).

Do it anyway!

They are pretty strong crisps. Sometimes they make me sweat, but I kinda like that. Though I’d probably still choose cheese and onion or beef if given the choice.

Sounds like you had a pack of “salt or vinegar” instead :smile:

Did you read the instructions? shake well before use?

Yes, indeed! :slight_smile:

/edit: Well, I actually “shaked” them on my way home. :wink:

Who’d do such a thing?

Cats?

Are they “wild” parakeets (exotics imported by boats or something) or pets?

I’m guessing a cat, or a fox. I’m a bit concerned that I don’t know where the head is :expressionless:

They’re wild - we get loads around here ever since a bunch of them escaped from a nearby zoo and bred.
