Does St Peter provide allergen information?

Only on entry, dere. Something along the lines of ‘Sorry about the shellfish thing, but while these gates may look pearly, they are untouched by mortal bivalve. And you’re dead anyway. Stop stressing.’

I’m allergic to Anchovies … and canned beer.

There. I’ve said it now.

(Individually, I’ve never tried them as a pairing)

Canned beer has changed. In the 80s and 90s I tended to avoid it because of the taste, but I’ve recently met some Thwaites’ Champion Dark Mild in tins which works remarkably well.

It gives me the most intense headaches though. Real forehead splitters. (Maybe I should open the can !!!)

It’s really not worth trying, to find out.

Mind you, say “I can’t drink canned beer” to many people and they treat you like it’s a disability. Sort of “Oh dear. How do you manage ???”

Though Thwaites Dark Mild takes me back. Very good it always was in my youth. One to seek out. Now Armitage … is it worth a headache. Mmmmm

Might it be worth pouring it out of the can and leaving it to stand in a mug for a bit? I don’t drink it myself, but the whateveritis of cannedness might dissipate.

Same treatment for the anchovies? or only purchase ones in jars?

Does decanting improve anchovies?

Recanting does, if they’ve only been out of the briny a short time. Or if they have strayed into heresy

I have met a canned fish. It was singing, I think.

When I offered to pass the grapes to a friend one lunchtime, he replied “I prefer my grapes fermented”.
