Never buy fish or shell fish on a Monday or Tuesday because it is never fresh.

Today in Western Australia,  [don't know about other states] a sign has to be put on the fish next to the price to indicate if it has been frozen or fresh.

One can usually tell by the flesh of the fish.  Also they are not allowed to call it fresh if it has been frozen, if a customer comes along and then freezes the already frozen fish they can become ill.

When that happens the Health Authorities will be called in...bad publicity is not what the shops are after.  I buy fish either at Kailis or Woolworths as the guy/lady behind the counter will let me know if it is fresh or not.  I would not touch fish at Coles.

Ann..I used to trust Kailis too..but have a look at these two links..they own only 10% of the company now..the Chinese conglomorate KB own the rest..

Their prawns are now coming mainly from Vietnam..

eeeeks!  Thea that is dreadful...

Thanks for the info...

LOL only purchase Hot Cross Buns at Bakers Delight...

The bread at the supermarkets are not purchased in this family.....they usually have sufites in which I have health issues with.  Bakers Delight also doesn't use dairy, which I also have an issue with.

As the old saying goes  'when you are onto a good thing stick with it'

Fine if you have the time...

I do have a bread maker but have not used it for about three years....

Micha do they do a scrambled variety of egg recipes?

When I was a small child living in India, my parents had a Black Goat which was milked twice a day. I don't know why, but I was the only one in my family who drank it. Mum said the cream from the milk was just beautiful, she made Caramel Toffee out of it. Out of the three daughters I was the one that was never sick, had the best teeth and skin. The other girls drank cows milk., and all unpasteurised. I have now gone back to eating Goat's Cheese, so much better than the other.

Hi Hola, that is something I was always going to try and never have, I miss cheese in my diet and I am wondering if I could have goats cheese, but then it is still fermented and it is the fermentation process that is my problem.   I sneak some of hubby's cheese now and again, then pay the price!   

I am wondering if your mother ate goats cheese when she was carrying you.  That could also explain having good teeth and skin.

Hi Attila - Mum hated Milk, only had it in her tea. I think it was from boarding school days when they were forced to have milk, that turned her off it. My youngest sister had the worst teeth and had to have false uppers when she was 16. The Dentist said it was probably because of her poor diet, she gave a lot of trouble at meal times. I remember Mum had never tasted a Milk Shake and one very hot day i coaxed her into trying one. She said she would try  Strawberry and was surprised how delicious it was. She was 80 by the way.
