At Madrid airport the other day I was waiting at a shop for them to heat up my lunch (which turned out to be disgusting but more on that later) and I thought I saw someone famous. Who is this dude with the curly locks? Should I know who he is? He looks familiar.
A close-up.
Madrid airport was dreadful. Just after going through security I was greeted by this:
I found a shop which claimed to sell vegan food so I wandered in feeling hopeful. It was called Esenza.
I bought a vegan pasty which looked unappetising – dry and tasteless – but I decided to give it a try. It was just as disgusting as it looked and I threw most of it away.
Most days for lunch I eat porridge with fruit and nuts. Today I added soy yoghurt, chia seeds, and fruit (pear and kiwi fruit).
Chia seeds are a strange food. I’ve never bought them before but I saw them at Newton Dee today and decided to give them a try. They come as small black or white, hard seeds which you soak in water for 10 minutes. After soaking they change to a jelly-like consistency and look rather like frog spawn.
They don’t taste of anything but they do add a nice crunch and texture to yoghurt and porridge.
It looks like “Weird Al” Yankovic.
I should probably have posted this, in case you don’t know who he is
I remember this song 🙂
I had to Google “Weird Al” Yankovic. I’ve never heard of him or seen him before so I don’t think that’s who I’m confusing him with. I think my mystery person might be an Australian.
Wow – but people can’t take that ham on the plane, can they??
I hadn’t thought about that but yeah. The only place shoppers had to go next in this part of the airport was onto a plane. Imagine taking a whole pig’s leg on a plane.
