    They charge 5 euro for 180g of pesto.

    No wondering they're so hyper, lovely money and foolish people happy to part with it.

    Or people who'd prefer to pay a fiver for really good pesto than 3 euro for stuff that tastes greasy and is full of additives.

    I bet they eat big, manky burgers in secret.

    Why what age are they?

    Why what age are they?

    35 or 36 apparently.. I had to look it up and I don't think they look good for their age..

    I can have delicious,fresh pesto that costs that for double the quantity.

    Basil,Parmesan, pine nuts and olive oil and garlic.

    It's not rocket science.

    Yeah but they are not only selling you the pesto, they are selling you an idea and a way of living.................. apparently :rolleyes:

    You're right - you'd probably be dead

    Begrudging and bitter springs to mind.

    Could you please tell me what was begrudging and bitter about my post. Why can people in this country not just accept that some people just don't like some other people?

    You should check out there ted talk. You'd feel like knocking them out. Fair play to them for what they've done. They are pretty ruthless in what they are trying to do. Alot of my generation in greystones dont like them at all.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 81 ✭✭Piggystardust


    They did a 'stint' at a cookery school I attended recently and while they seemed like knowledgeable and nice enough lads, after an hour they were doing my head in.
    They're way too hyper and over the top and kept doing hand stands to show off they're bronzed torsos.

    <gossip snipped> They're just too much and for people who don't eat sugar, I find them too sweet to be wholesome!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,741 ✭✭✭Effects


    I find them slightly annoying. I enjoy their food a lot except for a bit too much salt in some of the recipes.
    They are really nice dudes and enthusiastic about what they do. There's nothing wrong with that and I love seeing them being successful.

    As for the price of their pesto as previously mentioned. Sure, you can make your own pesto for cheaper, I know I do. But not everyone wants to do that, and you'll pay for the convenience of buying it already prepared for you.

    As for their many yoga pictures of hand stands/headstands/scorpions. One of the main tenants of yoga is staying humble. They should chill out a bit on that in my opinion.

    This might seem like a weird question but are they two brothers who are both gay?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,741 ✭✭✭Effects


    <gossip snipped>

    Sounds like typical small town Ireland bs gossip.

    Well they're both married but it did cross my mind. They're very effeminate anyway.

    No, both married as far as I remember.

    Just watched a vid there:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bloAQrG5Bvw

    "Gluten free, dairy free, sugar free"

    Contains wholewheat noodles and honey ಠ_ಠ

    Fair play to their business acumen and cooking skills but they seem to know shag all about nutrition.

    Unfortunately it isn't though. I as working in the industry for a while recently and know a lot of chefs. It's well known in those circles.

    I was just curious because I would have the odds of two brothers being gay would be about 1 in 500 and of course if they are gay that's great and if they're straight that's great.

    If you put yourself out there as a personality some people won't like you. I can't stand Kathryn Thomas (for all I know she could be lovely in real life).

    I know some chefs too. They like to drink a lot, indulge in drugs and have good time.
    The twins seem to live quite a different lifestyle to be honest.

    Yeh spot on O all seeing eye of Sauron!!, everyone in Greystones secretly wants to live in Sandycove/Glasthule/Dalkey.

    Where do you get this rubbish from??

    Myself, all my friends and all our families secretly wish we lived 3 dart stops up the coast. We live there because it is a beautiful town. Sorry to ruin your illusion you patronising tourist!

    Point to note my Queen serving friend, Greystones has more money in its environs that those 3 towns put together.

    Oh come on,you've even got a fake Cavistons and Jaipur's little brother.

    What's wrong with honey?

    But they also seem pretty fond of getting tanned. Which surely isn't that healthy for you either?

    What are the chances if 3 gay brothers? 5,000/1? Not that i care.
