Walkers shortages are down to an IT glitch apparently.

Should be back to normal in a few days, then...

Ever I should think, the meal deals are shit at veggie sandwiches.

How long does it take them to turn it off and on again?

I haven't seen any yellow bananas for weeks. The shelves are full of green ones but no yellow

That's a good thing.

Same here, but I prefer them a bit green.

Green ones will ripen but not much use if you want one right now.

Red?

Would bananas taste different if they were red?

Well, I think we can safely assume it's somewhere on the green/yellow spectrum, but I'm not sure quite where. I tend to enjoy them best once they've begun to develop a few spots.

Yes, they'd taste red obviously.

Manchester City branded fruit. Football merchandise has just gone too far.

That's what I was thinking. They'd probably move through your digestive system faster too.

Do they taste like blue slushies?

There's a new Plant Chef range, the hoisin mock duck one is delicious (by supermarket sandwich standards)

I did a small shop this morning. I was looking for some really basic stuff: soup, cereal, oat meal, fruit, and veg. I found the fruit and vegetable section about half stocked. I found that the things that were there were much more expensive. Salad tomatoes were about 25% higher than when I last bought them. There was no celery, mushrooms, or bagged salad. I ended up with a head of cabbage and some roma tomatoes for salad fixings. The cereal section was well stocked, but the prices were pretty high. The last time I bought a box of cereal, I could get them on sale five boxes for $10. A single box would be $2.50 or so. This morning I paid $4.39 for the same size box. Canned soup had gone up a lot too. The only thing I saw that hadn't gone up was bread and potato chips. As usual the paper section was bare.

That was the first thing I noticed so I started to pay attention to individual items and was a bit shocked. I've been poor in the past and I'm beginning to think I'll have to revive the "poor living skills" I used to have.

I think I partly spent as much as I did because I’ve been working on ditching the “poor living” skills..
