    Grapes and chocolate?

    Plenty of healthy food to choose from if you can prepare a meal from scratch.

    You dont have to buy sh!t food - plenty good food if you look

    For example: Oranges, frozen raspberries, frozen blueberries, organic oats, peanut butter and chilled water in a breville blend active - breakfast sorted

    Its really not that difficult

    Are frozen berries safe to eat without cooking again?

    It was few months before virus I noticed decrease of number of products with my favorite mango (fruit). Any idea why? Some poor mango harvests last year?

    I find shops in the south better. In the north they're more a sweet shop with packaged **** and fewer veg etc

    I have been putting straight from the freezer into my smoothies for years with no problems. I use both organic from my garden into the freezer and the bags of frozen fruit from Aldi.

    If you are worried you could rinse under hot water in a sieve for about 10 seconds. I would say cooking them first is not required.

    I don't get your linking it to pandemic

    Some shit food is lovely though. It might ultimately kill you, but it's lovely. I'm talking about those frozen ham 'n cheese jambons, Birdseye fish fingers (on white bread with proper butter), SuperQuinn sausages, Heinz alphabetti spaghetti.

    I'm finding in this weird and unsettling period, it's nice to eat comfort food that reminds me of simpler and happier times.

    Anyone know if you can still get Angel Delight anywhere? Haven't seen it in a while.

    There was a warning a few years ago as many were contaminated. They're so handy so that's good to know, thank you.

    Advice is to boil them for one minute. I got norovirus from frozen raspberries late last year, only looked it up after that, and realised the advice on boiling them still stood.

    What is OP whinging about? What exactly does he expect to buy in a Supermarket. Great market in Wuhan. Speciality is undercooked bat soup. You'll literally change the world after a bowl of it.
