Twiglets or Cheesy Wotsits?

[seaviewuk]

nothing too deep

I haven't voted, because i can't make my mind up yet

[Worldlife]

You shouldn't vote neither

[seaviewuk]

neither

\Nei"ther\, conj. not either; generally used to introduce the first of two or more co["o]rdinate clauses of which those that follow begin with nor.

Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king. --1 Kings xxii. 31.

Hadst thou been firm and fixed in thy dissent, Neither had I transgressed, nor thou with me. --Milton.

When she put it on, she made me vow That I should neither sell, nor give, nor lose it. --Shak.

Note: Neither was formerly often used where we now use nor. ``For neither circumcision, neither uncircumcision is anything at all.'' --Tyndale. ``Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it.'' --Gen. iii. 3. Neither is sometimes used colloquially at the end of a clause to enforce a foregoing negative (nor, not, no). ``He is very tall, but not too tall neither.'' --Addison. '' `I care not for his thrust' `No, nor I neither.''' --Shak.

To be more precise.........

"You shouldn't vote 'neither'. "

But I heed your warning about circumcision

[Appuleius]

"Circumcision" No skin of my nose!

[silver]

both are nasty but having a neither option is letting people off the hook

don't vote neither!

Incidentally, does anyone know exactly what Twiglets have to do with fake Rolex watches from Hong Kong?

[deni_Zen]

I confess...I don't know what either Twiglets or Cheesy Wotsits are, but to me, I would guess a Twiglet would be a petite, skinny woman, and a Cheesy Wotsit could be a cheesecake pose showing lots of leg?

[Memfis]

twiglet are like matchmaker mint chocolates, but marmite, not mint or chocolate. (Good at descriptions aren't I )

cheesy wotsits are kinda like cheesy crisps.

Hope I've confused you even more.

Memfis Thanks for clarifying that. I like both. I like food. Please ship me some to try out.

[Memfis]

ask Tebs to bring some out next time she goes, will be cheaper than trying to post it from here

Never heard of Marmite so I found out what Marmite is and how it is made. Sounds kinda gross-being the byproduct of a beer making process (the yeast is at least)-what does it taste like? Also, is it really as popular in the UK as it seems to be?

The Marmite FAQ

Marmite, tastes, well, like, errm, kinda like Marmite ! I honestly cant think of anything it tastes like...

The adverts are based around the fact that people either hate it or love it, if you have quicktime > http://www.visit4info.com/static/adv...es/Marmite.cfm

Oh, btw twiglets also come in worcester sauce and curry flavour. The flavours of all are pretty intense, but they make great beer food.

Is it great beer food because it makes you want to drink? One of the bars I go to drink at has either pretzels with this slighty hot mustard that compliments the beer well or this hot cajun pretzel nut mix. You cannot have either with out beer. Softdrinks/soda does not taste right when eating either of those items.

BTW that same bar turned me on to some beer from the UK, (I like most of the Young's and Bass Ale, don't shoot me for saying this but Guiness I was not fond of. The extra-stout did taste good though.)

YES! Absolutely Salty, spicy, cloying, saliva absorbing goodness

I guess twiglets are the uk equivalent of pretzels, which are pretty hard to get in supermarkets here, and if you can get them, they are just salt flavour... bleeeech.

[Memfis]

Not a guiness fan either :/

I read a research report showing that free nuts or salty savouries displayed on bars are enhanced in flavour by contamination from the unwashed hands of male customers
