I’m rather fond of avocados, but I was eating them before they became a thing. Love guacamole, but they’re tasty with a vinaigrette dressing too.

Mashed avocado on toast Glenners? Washed down with artisan coffee and a pint of beard oil?

On toast, certainly, with olive oil and harissa. ‘Artisan’ coffee is invariably shite. There’s nothing better than Illy if you’re going to run it through an espresso machine.

You have ruined one of Gerp’s favourite fantasies.

I quite enjoy the way you speak so authoritatively on matters of taste Glenners while rarely agreeing with anything you say. I think this may be because I am a ragamuffin at heart :-)

Most of the time I'm simply being provocative, Dippers, as I'm sure you realise. However, I do believe most of the hipster scum couldn't tell 'artisan' coffee from bogwater in a blindfold test, and given the current tendency to drown everything in milk the taste of the coffee doesn't matter much.

As it happens, I also believe that people's fondness for starchy, sugary, fatty glurp shows that they have forgotten how to taste anything properly. Chewing and tasting carefully, all that they would notice is that it coats the tongue like emulsion paint. There's more flavour in a well-made pork pie than in a whole shopfull of cupcakes.

I was wondering why I hadn't voted in one of the rounds, then remembered my 'raw toad' comment.

Slathered in mayonnaise, and served with frites, unprovoked beer and mildly alarmed tomatoes? Lovely.
