That hamburger looks a little funky...at least from here it does. Did it taste like a regular ground-beef patty?

I like Mrs. Housil's plate much better!

It tastet like .... hmmmm..... nothing :? Very "pale", "silent", "swiss" (=neutral :wink: )
Same to the beans, no taste (to me) at all.

It´s not the light...

I quite like it that meal. Its a home comfort meal I think. I tend to add brown sauce into it to add a little more flavour (Its a British thing :lol: )
The colours just from the sauce (I hope :D ) I Don't have one in my stores to compare, for some reason i mainly have deserts... sweet tooth :D Theres quite a few auctions on ebay.co.uk for bulk meal buys now for example 3 hamburger and beans, 3 corned beef hash, 3 Pasta and meatballs and 3 Chocolate puddings.
I'm bidding on some now, never hurts to have a few in stock.

So, do Brits normally eat a lot of beans, or is the MoD just being cheap barstards???
