Dining on Venus and Mars

[blunomore]

Martian cuisine (aka What Men Will Eat If Left To Their Own Devices)

Braaied meat – probably rather charred on the outside, but with the delightful hint of beer that was poured over the meat to put out any flames below.
Pasta – either with a jar of sauce (probably cold!), or bolognaise sauce.
A potjiekos – nothing wussy and fiddly, but the meat and potatoes type.
Meat/fish from a tin – bully beef, tuna, tinned Vienna sausages… the list is endless.
Smash – easy, filling, goes with anything. What’s not to like?

Venusian cuisine (aka What Women Will Eat If Left To Their Own Devices)
Stir-fry – probably with some ridiculously priced macadamia nut oil and exotic vegetables.
Lentils, beans or chickpeas – women love them, but for some reason, men do not identify these as food. Nick regularly refers to chana masala as “that bean cr*p”.
Things served in stacks or decorated with squiggles of balsamic vinegar reduction – women coo over the presentation; men think it is fiddly and stupid.
Caesar salad – can’t be real food: where are the tomatoes, the feta, the cajun chicken strips or Thousand Island dressing?
Ice cream or peanut butter (preferably both) spooned directly from the container into the mouth, and usually washed down with a bottle of Chardonnay.

It was pretty cold on Mars last time I was there.
Will need a few cases of port and brandy as well.
