my ex-girlfriend used to do that (the mayonnaise with french fries). Absolutely disgusting. I'd refuse to kiss her afterwards. Her parents were from Belgium, though...I suppose that's where she got it from.

Mayo and fries is quite tastey.

Kissing a smoker isn't so bad. French kissing a smoker is like licking an ashtray.

In Australia you get to pick the piece of fish that you want to go with your chips, then the fillet is battered and fried or grilled for you. Usually it won't be salted and vinegared, you'd have to salt it yourself, and then you'll get lemon wedges or a choice of vinegar or salsa, horseradish or thousand island dressing or mayonnaise or ketchup to go with it.
Very civilized arrangement. However there is nothing designed to evoke memories of seaside resorts in Devon or Cornwall out of season than the taste of chips fried in beef fat, then liberally sprinkled with salt and moistened with malt vinegar. Add driving rain, gale force winds and screaming children for that perfect holiday feeling.
Mmm, skate wings, black butter and caper sauce. Mussels fried or grilled with piquant sauce. Salmon en croute with ginger and currant stuffing.
I had a delicious dish the other night- we took our visitors from Great Britain out to a Viet/Thai restaurant, and I had crocodile in lemongrass sizzling on a hot plate, and larb gai and pandan chicken to start.
I won't be having traditional Christmas fare- we've had three days of 35 degree plus weather, with no let up at night. Luckily it rained briefly yesterday.

"memories of seaside resorts in Devon or Cornwall out of season than the taste of chips fried in beef fat, then liberally sprinkled with salt and moistened with malt vinegar."
Interestingly the use of vinegar on fries in Maryland is particularly associated with oceanfront, especially Ocean City - "Boardwalk Fries". An english connection, or something natural about vinegar fries/chips by the salt air?

Imran, shall I schedule you for a quadruple bypass now?
It'd be like having mayo or lard with chicken kiev. You want some more fat with your fat?
L.o.t.m.- a food historian I was speaking with told me about how she was researching the origins of battered fish with chips in Great Britain. Apparently she was working around the theory/'fact' that Sephardic Jewish refugees from Spain/Spain's colonies brought back tempura style fish from Japan on to English trading ships in the Pacific and East Indies' traiding routes, then when the potato proved a hit in Great Britain, a marriage made in heaven was formed. Interesting given that tempura battering was introduced to the Japanese by the Portuguese/Spanish, but the Japanese made the batter much lighter, and extended it to vegetables and fungi and tubers, not just fish and meats.
Is Maryland a more 'English' state? I know about Lord Baltimore, and Catholic refugees, but is it in general a more 'English' state?

1. that's more then enough  (though I'm always less accurate when it comes to using these ancient methods)
2. Low weight doesn't necessairily mean low cholestorol.

It certainly is a decent predictor. Who will be more likely to have the heart attack, someone weighing 325 lbs, or one weighing 160 lbs, being of the same age and height?

I don't understand US people and weight. I'm a rugby player, and I'm 5'11" and 145lbs. I'm not that light (my brother weightlifts 6 times a week and is 5'9" and 135lbs). I weightlift and I don't have that little fat (though I do look it), but I'm massively under US weights it seems.

What's so bad with that? I don't like vinegar, but it's a brit tradition, fish 'n' chip shop chips with salt and vinegar. Though I just have salt, and occasionally mayo or tommy ketchup.

Ketchup is non-fat, and is (believe it or not) an excellent source of lycopene.

I like to dip fries in a mixture of ketchup and mayo. Combines the lycopene of ketchup with the deliciousness of mayo.

I think by now I have established that I do know a little about food, and yes, I am aware of the constituents of mayonnaise, although if made the traditional French way with olive oil and egg it is not necessarily the coronary in waiting that -ugh-retch-gag- industrial manufactured mayo is.
However, you should be aware that even skinny people may come from a family with an inherited predisposition towards coronary infarctions. How is your cholesterol level? If memory serves, there are some chubby Inuit, Piedmontese and Catalans, but you don't see them falling down dead at the drop of a hat...
