A few weeks ago, I started a discussion about our likes and dislikes, asking people to name 5 things in life they really loved,and 5 they hated. So moving on from that - we all love food, - so have a think, and tell me what 3 things you always have in your kitchen, and couldn't live without, and 3 things you would never have! In your kitchen includes in the fridge, or freezer, canned goods, condiments, or just in the pantry. OK - I'll start........
3 things I could never be without..........
1) Tea - I can't survive a day without a good cup of tea!
2) Chocolate - am thoroughhgly addicted to it, and as long as I have some in the house, I'm happy!
3) Pasta - you can always make a meal with whatever you have leftover, providing there is a good base like pasta with it!3 things I would never have anywhere near me......
1) Meat or fish, as I am vegetarian
2. Coffee - I can't stand the smell of it!
3) Peanuts - I despise the things! LOL!OK - your turn!

Aaaah food, my favourite subject, I will blame you if I have to raid the fridge after talking food
3 Things I could never be with out:
1 is chocolate with a capital c
2 is bread I love bread, especially fresh crusty bread
3 is tuna, because I go to the gym I eat tonnes of fish for protein value and I love the taste
3 Things I would never have
1 is pasta because I hate the stuff with a passion
2 is rice pudding because it makes me gag, I was put off the stuff from school
3 is pilchards, the stench of pilchards makes me heave!
Right your fault Rosie, I'm off to raid the fridge now!

Food is one of the best things that can make our day provided its nicely done, aromatic and fulfilling to eat...
The things I love to have and 'njoy with NO GUILT are:
1) Curd/Yoghurt: I am an absolute MILK product buff.. Give me anything sweet or anything made from MILK and Iwould know no stopping.. I just love every sweet made from milk... and CURD.. I eat it thr-four times a day full cups and yummmm.... have my lips and sometimes nose sticking with curd...
2) Chocolate: I don't think anybody needs to know why.. CHOCOLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE... I just love the way it melts in my mouth and how my tongue moves with it and its sweetness...
3)Meat/Fish: Non-veg is always a delight if NOT OVERLY EATEN.. The aroma and the taste...
4)RAJMA: I wonder if non-Indians know about it... Or perhaps I on't know its english nam.. If i am not wrong its green grams.. I love it expecially with rice..Th combination is lethal and knows no second best...
5)Everything else: here are a lot of things NOT statd here but i like having them... So this is for verything that's left...

Three things that I cannot live without, would include coffee (because me and my hubby would not be able to survive). Meat, because we need protein. Rice, because I can make just about anything with it.
Also, there are things that I can live without, however, I am not exactly sure what they are, because, I like a lot of things and so does my hubby. I really cannot decide what I don't like, so I will name 3 more things that I also like. I love veggies, pasta, and cheese....gosh, I could go on forever...you should hear me talk about spices and herbs,lol...

What I have to have...
1. coffee
2. whole garlic
3. olive oil
I don't know if I can come up with three things I don't want near me, but two are pickled beets and pineapple. Some things I just have to tolerate since I have such a large family and they all like and dislike different things.

I really like to talk about food. Some of good receipes and good tempting food discussions make me hungry lol.
For me the three things I have in my kitchen are...
1.Rice...I and my hubby like to eat rice. I make different kind of rice almost everyday.
2.Chicken...One of our favourite food, we eat very frequently. So, we have to have chicken in fridge.
3.Egg...for breakfast egg is necessary for us.
And the three things we never have in our kitchen are...
1. Beef....We don't eat beef.
2. Drpeper....I hate the smell of this drink.
3. Anchovies...I never add this thing to my food.

Okay, here are some things that we always have in our family's kitchen:
1. Oatmeal, because I love it and eat it every single day that I can. It not only helps with my digestion problems because it's so soft, but I love the taste of it and it also promotes good health.
2. Yogurt, I also eat this every day because it has good anti-bacterial properties in it that I need, because I have other problems that I don't want to get into here. Plus, again, it tastes great! ^_^
3. Vegetables - quite a few different kinds, because my family eats steamed veggies for lunch every single day.
I can't think right now of things that we would never have... ack. Sorry! *laugh*

3 types of food I really like are
1) potatoes - I love mash, chips, crisps etc so these would be essential for me!
2) chocolate - I am addicted to it although I know its bad for me. I know I shouldn't have it but mmmmmmm
3) Mango - its my favourite fruit and I really should have something healthy on the list.
Foods I wouldn't have anywhere near me
1) meat, fish and dairy as I'm a vegan
2) anything with artificial colourings, additives, sweetners etc
3) tea - I don't like it at all (although I do keep it in the house as everyone else I know seems to like it.
