Things that make you go arghh!
‘I heard that the locals in Derbyshire used to make a paste from woodlice,’ says Monty Wood.
Yes! It’s this week’s sandwich fillings. He fails, however, to suggest how lice are best employed in the world of bread-based lunching, so we leave that as an exercise for the reader.
Which leads us to more practical suggestions, and this week we highlight student food, courtesy of Simon Mountford, at NYK Reefers (which sounds like a student type of company to us). He suggests three sandwiches: mustard on white bread, brown sauce (just brown sauce) and when that gets a bit dull, ‘Weetabix and salad cream. Try it, it’s great.’ Residents of Derbyshire might want to add a few insects.
Meanwhile, in North Yorkshire, 100 jam sandwiches have been hidden in woodland in an attempt to find the pine marten, a rare mammal thought to have been extinct for 100 years. Who came up with this excellent ruse? Biologists at Hull University. The martens should think themselves lucky they didn’t get brown sauce.
