This Is Thailand

**BillyZ** · 25-05-2006, 10:23 AM

God bless her, I love my wife to death. She's a good woman, a great partner and everything you could want in a mate. And she's Thai.

She's made fruit juices for me probably one hundred times before. So the other day, when I asked for OJ and bananas blended, I wasn't expecting this, with a spoon, and my wife saying, "Don't complain, just drink it."

(if it comes out small, that's because I haven't figured out how to resize it here in the post)

To me, it is one of those things where a Thai will do something for you correctly 99 times out of one hundred. Then the 100th time, it's like they've never done it before.

Ok, it's true for not only Thais, but this is where I live and work, this is where I see it on a regular basis.

At least this time it was good for a laugh and no one got hurt...

Actually, it looks quite nice.

I might try that.

Back on topic, whats with the sweetcorn in Ice Cream??

Thats something I've never been able to fathom out!

**BillyZ** · 25-05-2006, 04:00 PM

Not only corn, but other stuff, like kidney beans. It must be a Sweet & Savory thing with the Thais.

But try to get them to dip their Freedom Fries(...just winding you Yank haters up) in their chocolate shake and the scoff. Go figure...

**BillyZ** · 25-05-2006, 04:18 PM

**kingwilly** · 25-05-2006, 04:23 PM

**Lily** · 25-05-2006, 04:25 PM

I quite like salty hot chips dipped in ice cream.

**Lily** · 25-05-2006, 04:35 PM

I also like the coconut custard things that they make in those little ceramic moulds and the Thai girls in our office used to buy them for me.

One day they brought some 'aloi maak' ones for me with some kind of topping and it turned out to be some jelly made, it seemed to me, completely out of nam pla.

YUUUUUUUKKKKK!

**kingwilly** · 25-05-2006, 04:37 PM

**as KW thinks to himself .....perhaps now is not a good time to mention those vegemite and marmalade toasties you eat**

Where in Thailand can you get a good chocolate shake? McDs don't do them do they?

**BillyZ** · 26-05-2006, 12:43 PM

McDonalds stopped serving shakes a couple of years ago. Burger King still does a pretty good one. And if you dip your hash browns (available all day and night), it's really good. It might sound nasty or stupid, like my wife first thought, but once you get used to it, I think you'll be hooked.

If you're at Mickie D's, you can still get the sundae and just mix that up until it softens up.

Interesting kunts you lot.....

Well, since we're on about food and bananas, one other tasty blend is a banana/peanut butter sandwich. I'm not sure what I like about them, but I've been grazing them since I was a kid (maybe it's a southern California thing???)

My God!

What kind of wicked person would feed their children such disgusting food?

What did you force on the others?

**Lily** · 26-05-2006, 03:06 PM

Lambs brains, calves liver and tripe.
