  • Rich, do you do this?

    Sad, on so many levels..

    LONDON (Reuters) - Almost a third of young Britons have passed off a ready-made meal as their own creation in order to impress someone, according to a survey by the Department of Health.
    Women were the worst offenders, with 40 percent saying they had claimed food bought in a shop as their own, compared to 22 percent of men.

    And seven percent of the 1,000 16-24-year-olds questioned said they regularly claimed credit for food they had bought.

    The research, conducted as part of the department's 5 A DAY campaign to encourage people to eat more fruit and vegetables, also found that one in 10 had never cooked a proper meal for themselves because they "don't know how."

    It also discovered that women were more impressed by a man's cooking ability than whether they owned a flashy car.

        Sorry gals.


        Not only do I have a flash car, but I can also cook - So I have never done anything like that before. I'll even post a picture of my car! Well its not mine, but I have one exactly the same and the same colour -

                That car has a great story behind it too! One of my favorite ADBB member's stories as a matter of fact!

                        Hmm, has senilty set in for me? Wasn't there a reason why you bought that car Rich? Something about a trip you took in another little sports car before you discovered Atkins and a comment that someone made?

                              I cant find it. But never mind.


                              FYI, Karen, it wasnt the reason I bought the car, but I was in my friends car at the time when that lady said what she said to me.

                              I realy bought the car because I am (we was) young free and single adn could get away with having just a 2 seater.
