Salads-Salades fancy eh?

Rabbit food? I dont think so,its summer time ,the Sun is beating down,the produce in the kitchen is covered with blue bottles..an Ideal time to serve a salad.
 Flies aside, there is a bigger menace afoot,Dirt in the salad leaves,Maggots,slugs,the list makes impressive reading..a bit like the cast from Hollyoaks,with less designer clothes.

A ploughman works up his apetite while the caterer prepares to shave the ingredients.

Ploughmans salad:(Ploughmans lunch) Does this name conjour up images of warm summer days in the English countryside with the hard working Ploughman  returning after a hard mornings graft,to a pint of Cider and a delicious ploughmans lunch?
 Strike all those images from your mind as the chef fumbles in the fridge for the cheese that was left over from the last Masonic function 2 months ago,the microwave pings as the frozen petit pain is defrosted and the branston pickles fur is scraped off.

Viet Cong- If you discover a member of the Viet Cong in your Salad-DON'T PANIC.This is their natural enviroment, as the Americans found out. Had the Yanks used a Good Quality Caesar Dressing, instead of Agent Orange, they might have won. Calmly spear Him or Her, they were an Equal Oppurtunities Employer, and Mange. They are quite small and the Black Pyjamas can be a tad chewwy, but they make an excellent replacement for Anchovies.
