Not about sheds, but I love a 99 in the Summer and I love Sausage and Mash, but those odd lot over at Aunt Bessies have gone one better and mixed the two!

Aunt Bessie’s Mash Cone

Mash and a banger in a cone launched as the first all-weather alternative to the ’99 Flake’

It may look like a 99 Flake from afar, but it’s just the latest sign of the British adapting our eating habits due to our increasingly rainy summers. With last summer being one of the wettest ever recorded and the heaviest snowfall for almost 20 years this month, Aunt Bessie’s* is breathing new life into the fortunes of the ice cream van by replacing chilly ices with an all-weather, British classic: creamy mash and a banger – in a cone!

Served from a specially customised ‘Mash Van’, Aunt Bessie’s will offer cones filled with creamy, warm homestyle mash and a banger topped with gravy and a sprinkling of garden peas. Aunt Bessie’s Mashed Potato is made using exactly the same ingredients as you would at home - real potatoes, milk, butter, salt and pepper.

It was a dogged performance any pie-eating champion would be proud of.

But pooch Charlie is in the doghouse after scoffing the lot.

They were not for him but were made specially for the world pie-eating championships.

Last night Charlie’s owner Dave Williams was hoping bakers can come up with replacements for the event starting at noon today.

If like me you like a bit of pickle, you may be shocked to hear that the makers of Branston, are producing a cyber/terminator type jar, maybe, that tells you how old your pickle is?

Branston pickle will carry a smart label to help consumers tell if the product is still fresh enough to eat. Premier Foods will launch the Timestrip labels on pots of Branston Original for a trial period.
Shoppers press a lid-top button to activate the label when they first open the jar.
A red line slowly creeps up the label over a period of six months to indicate how many weeks the product has been in use.

Well I’m not sure if I like my food telling me when I can’t eat it, and I thought pickles last for ever, well the ones I have eaten seem to create new life forms every few years… but I suppose they had lots of consumer reserch and people said, No i don’t want a better, but cheaper product I want a gadget that reminds me to buy a new one?
