I suppose okra (aka orka, killer veg) is either loved or hated. I rather like it. I've always bought it fresh until, recently, I bought some frozen - at 50p/kg bag I couldn't resist. I haven't tried it yet, not least because I have a feeling of trepidation. Has anyone knowingly eaten okra which has been frozen and, if so, what's it like, out of 10?

I mean I give 10/10 to fresh peas picked by oneself, 9/10 to frozen peas and 7/10 to supermarkets' allegedly fresh peas.

You forgot canned peas. They score -10 out of 10.

Shouldn't you be blessing a turkey - it's Thanksgiving (I think) - instead of praising tinned peas? :)

I award tinned peas 10/10 when I'm camping, otherwise 5/10. (They're not a patch, nor pod, on frozen ones, Nutrax!)

Tony, I awarded the peas a minus 10 out of 10. As in "inedible."

I read it as they scored - 10 out of 10. But you're right, Nutrax - on re-reading it's -10.

In which case, there's no need for me to be sweet and conciliatory any more and award those tinned things 5/10.

P.S. My partner came home from work about 10 mins ago and I said: I can't believe Nutrax is giving tinned peas 10/10! She said: maybe they really like mushy peas in America and she means these?

P.P.S. I suppose my blessing+ turkey and +praising tinned peas is now pointless. Alas!

Anyway, have a good Thanksgiving - and dinnae forget tae pray for me :)

Waste of time.

You're a haggis muncher from the glens north of the border and as such are beyond redemption my son.

P.S. It's not that I dinnae love DD - but I'd rather kiss ye, mc. Being a Scottish gentleman (obviously), you can choose the time and the place - and the place.
