Wetherspoons runs out of ketchup

I can say in all honesty I haven’t been in a Wetherspoons for over a year. I have no plans to go to one in the near future.

Must be several years at least since I've set foot in one. Don't miss it.

I can honestly say I've never been in one. Although this is possibly a geographical thing.

Ah
I don't intend to go out ever again so I guess that counts

Furious British people are promising to boycott Wetherspoons when pubs finally reopen

People are pledging to boycott Wetherspoons when pubs reopen because of how its owner Tim Martin allegedly treated his staff during lockdown. Martin was infamously quoted telling 43,000 Wetherspoons employees that they would not be paid until the beginning of the government furlough scheme...

Tartare sauce, mixed with a little ketchup, makes an ersatz seafood sauce of the type found in 1970s prawn cocktails. I like it with fish and chips. And beans.

Now I'll run from the thread like a heretic. Fuck you all

Yes, I don't set foot in them. I just lean my head in the door, and should my order.

Grimsby. Where we know a little bit about fish.

You have great fish but use beef fat to fry which I know helps you keep the cold wet weather out but still.

Come on, surely you're adults? Ketchup? Brown Sauce?

Really.

If one must have an additional condiment to vinegar, which is the Godlike addition to chips, then it can only be - Mustard. And English Mustard at that. It renders all other condiments redundant. If it's really not available then German Mustard (Senf) is an allowable alternative.

I hope this is clear and conformed to in the future.

I knew somebody would eventually mention mustard. Things like this are only ever a facepalm away. Like the drunken bloke singing Come on Eileen on the karaoke.

Full English @ £1.75?
I remember paying that in Spain about 20 years ago; plenty of folk who need to keep food costs to a minimum.

You can’t have been there for a very long time. Beef dripping hasn’t been used for my lifetime, and I’m really old.

On fish and chips?

 

[BassJunkie]

On fish and chips?

On pretty much any form of potato apart from Roast, where Horseradish serves the purpose better.

Mustard > Sugar + Salt. Obvs.

I m suspicious.

Give me some credit.


It's Geno actually.

 

[Artaxerxes]

Did they have enough thick gravy at least?

I have got a block of beef dripping in my fridge.

I always liked it for Yorkshire puddings but can’t remember the last time I saw it for sale.

I have a tub of duck fat in the freezer. It's collected any time a duck is roasted. It's essential.

But not in Spain...

How often do you roast ducks?

and when you say roast, do you mean to cook them in the oven or give them a good telling off?

Whenever they're on a yellow label.
And spit roast, of course, as keybored alluded to.

Wetherspoons runs out of ketchup
Every customer’s shedding a tear
Wetherspoons runs out of ketchup
And feeling a cold-blooded fear

Wetherspoons runs out of ketchup
Every local forehead does frown
Wetherspoons runs out of ketchup
And panic’s engulfing the town

 

[William of Walworth]

You know that offer you made a while back, to make us both a meal???

To keep you and us out of Wetherspoons, you said?

Can't make it now

I dunno what it is about the"" smiley but I feel like I just witnessed a potential victim being let down gently by a serial killer.
