Oh dear the one with Cranberries. Shame. Like Xmas when we get all these 'novelty' cheeses contaminated with various fruit and veg which folk (for which read my wife) get as 'something special for Xmas' that then spoils January and most of February as I have to clear out the fridge until SPring arrives and I can purchase 'unadulterated' cheese. Heavens last Xmas she even bought a Stilton which had some fruit mixed into it. I stood in the Kitchen and burst into tears.
It's that time of the year when you need to buy a few extra tissues Mr H :love:

I’m minded to question “how much food is really wasted? I mean Christmas is lemming time where folk buy excess food just because shops are shut for 1 day? How much of this extra food gets turfed out before New Year’s Eve??

I can remember mother oft quoted a saying about Mr colman s profit being left on the side of the plate ,that was in the 60s or the same with the half dozen beans left in the bottom of a heinz tin.
