Smoked middle back bacon (not bad quality, nice and thick), poached eggs, black pudding, grilled vine tomato, good thick slice of butter.

@ smit101 .... being meaning to ask, where you get your black pudding?
Just finished off some roast beef (top side), roast and mashed potatoes, roast veg and gravy.... sorry no pic.

I'm having a different type of bacon this time!
About to start making dinner... Broccoli, carrots and potato cheesy bake

I get it from local butcher, massive long sausage of it!
for just a few quid, it's nearly all blood and fat, hardly any grain in it. Try your local butcher he'll have some, if not most of the supermarkets sell it I believe.But we want one!

Brought some spicy mince meat samosas back from a cousin's house.
Spicy to the point where my nose feels runny... Now that's my kind of heat.

I like it dude!
As in what does it add taste/texture-wise? Worth a try next time I have a fry-up then?
But it's not good for your health...I like it dude!

But it's not good for your health...
I don't buy into the 'saturated fat is unhealthy' theory (it's never been proven that it causes heart disease/high cholesterol). Butter is a very clean & natural food IMO and is absolutely chock full of useful nutrients.
The fats I avoid like the plague are margarines/hydrogenated oils etc, and those found in processed/pre-packaged foods.
Regardless of the healthiness of saturated fats (I agree with you on the butter vs marge thing) you must have even over a thousand calories just of butter over the last few days looking at the size of those slabs!
I'm just about to tuck into a beef massaman curry that's been simmering on the hob for the last few hours.
Unfortunately it was done using a bought paste as I've run out of the last homemade batch I did, but still tastes decent from when I sampled it earlier.

Too many misconceptions about what's good or bad for you going round these days yeah^^
The only way I like spicy-hot stuff that's genuinely hot is if it's made at someone's house. Restaurant food isn't hot enough to me and neither are walk up stands in markets and other eateries!
Not to the point where all you taste is heat though, hot enough to be "hot" but you still taste the other ingredients and non home made just doesn't get that mix right.
Still, I'll settle for anything spicy/juicy when eating out

I find a lump butter literally helps the meal go down + it always adds lovely taste, can't think of much that butter doesn't compliment.

I tend to eat low carb though, so fat is my main fuel. Please people! just let me eat my butter!
