Heston Blumenthal does egg & bacon ice cream, and he's hailed as a visionary chef. Iceland do a chicken tikka lasagna and they are branded "weird"...

the thing is it's not actually egg nor bacon, it's ice cream with sugar

your analogy doesn't work

I'm sorry but you are wrong... it DOES contain egg, and it DOES contain bacon. Look up the recipe if you don't believe me.

That's ok... I mean, chances are no-one can actually taste the chicken in the Iceland Chicken Tikka Lasagna...!

Whats the problem, it sounds pretty good to me - in concept anyway. Think "spicy chicken lasagne". Whether Iceland make a good go of it I doubt however.

And lose your wit and repartee?

Certainly not, but you'll get a boot in the arse for being so silly.

Do any Iceland stores actually exist in Surrey? You might be safe there Charlie.

I've just found the Iceland website, which includes such delicacies as:-

Italian style chicken tikka pizza (the irony is strong in this one )

Conversely they could do

Indian style chicken tikka pizza.

Which is most accurate for this dish do you think, and did they argue endlessly in that drab meeting room on the 2nd floor one Friday afternoon, 12 seats around a large square table, flip chart in the corner.. you can just picture it can't you?

"Well, it's Italian style then, Philip can you send the minutes around later and the action point on the American style battered hot dogs ?"

I think i had it once when i was hungover and couldn't be arsed to cook, it did the job and i've had worse.

Translation - 'I absolutely bloody loved it and buy it every week, but I'll be buggered if I'm going to admit that on here!'

I'll be honest if there was one in the house now I would have no problem eating it and I'm only slighlty hungover. For a cheap fix Iceland does the job, the rest of you are just food snobs, they've won awards!

Just browsing through the Iceland site as I don't have one near me to go and look in.

Came across this:

http://www.iceland.co.uk/page/view/buffet


Is the first item at the top of that page really frozen sandwiches?1?

This begs the following questions:

i) These must be fing rancid.

ii) Surely it's cheaper than £5 to make six rounds of sandwiches yourself?

iii) It is definitely quicker to make fresh sandwiches than defrost frozen ones.


Just why??

I wouldnt even buy Ice cubes in Iceland , they have probably been mechanically reformed ,, reclaimed , re constituted or regurgitated soemwhere along the line !

Our local pizza is also a kebab and does a 'clay oven special' with a few types of kebab meat on and green chillies. Very nice.

I don't think there are many rules when it comes to pizza, but curry and pasta combined is a line I don't ever feel like crossing

I've made curry pasta in the past.

It's nice.

I thought you were joking.

Iceland can be a bit grim but there are plenty of you talking about kebabs and we all know that sausage comes from the hospital in a yellow "incinerate only" bag.

Of course you're drunk at the time and just don't care (ever tried one sober?)

Presumably there must be a sweet spot in a kebab shop where you're least likely to get overcooked sausage or food poisoning. After the pubs shut the slicing rate is just too quick to cook it properly between customers.

I think it's already been cooked when it's made into that "torso" shape... the burners just brown it a bit more and heat it up.

And give it that propane flavour.
