This blog is written and published from Wales and I have a passion for history, so what Gerald of Wales has to say on the Welsh diet is of interest:
‘Almost all the people live upon the produce of their herds, with oats, milk, cheese, and butter; eating flesh in larger proportions than bread.’
The Description of Wales by Geraldus Cambrensis
I’m not sure that things have changed too much.

Well I'm not a big curry fan but one word of advice you stink really bad after eating it! You may not notice but your friends and people around you will! I don't suggest eating it at all! I worked in a restaurant once and the east Indians always stunk like curry and it's nothing nice let me tell you! I would suggest quitting cold turkey and the tase isn't anything special anyways, very bland!.
