If you could only have one carbohydrate what would it be?

My initial answer would have been cream crackers. But more practically I think I would choose rice.

This would be a nightmare for me as I really love a carbohydrate! 

Wow, thats a bit gnomic!

If we ever meet and are in that situation, Dormouse, I will happily have the portion you don't want and swap you for one of your favourites. #takingonefortheteam

The mix of partly crispy, partly very soggy bread-ish ...almost grainy-textured-ness into its collapse, combo with hot milk-ish aroma of the sauce and then shocking singed bits of sultanas (like sultanas ...except burnt bits). 

Heaven forfend the cook incorporated grated nutmeg - just no!  

I don't quite understand my vehement objection to the dish as other genetic relatives would happily live on the stuff!

I think waitrose do Longly Farm cottage cheese.

I find milk puddings disguesting.

Morning, Lonehare12  

Longley Farm was my saviour too! Widely available where I am in North Yorkshire. Love their yoghurt too. 

I hate that too!!

I have a fix tho…Longley Farm Cottage cheese is not watery at all…not sure if it’s widely available. We may just be lucky here in the North.

I think I have seen tapioca referenced on other threads as a problem, and it certainly hasn't appeared on this one yet as anyone's 'one carb to save'!

I could write a list of foods with strange and unacceptable textures, cottage cheese is definitely on it, along with baked beans and tomatoes. Baked beans are actually the devils work!

Interesting, Dormouse. Is that a mouthfeel thing? I don't mind the feel of bread and butter pudding, but I used to have real problems with cottage cheese, especially if it was a bit watery. Aren't sensory profiles fascinating!

The texture of Bread and Butter Pudding is definitely not for me.

I even know someone who makes it with perfectly otherwise lovely Panettone (shudder).

For me it’s bread, just so versatile. Cheese or egg on toast, sandwiches are my everyday safe food. I’ve never tried bread & butter pudding, it just looks too weird

It's hypothetical, so no need to worry about your health!

Thats the thing though I don't really like them, a plate of mash though, I could eat almost my own body weight in mash!

Oh I forgot about pizza.

I might have to change my mind.

Oh that’s frustrating especially if you like them.

That’s what I would choose if the hypothetical situation didn’t require me to be careful about my health.
