From thanksgiving 2013. I don't think we be getting away this light this year.

I have been remiss, and not posted any of my recent #FoodPorn, so here is a catch-up...

#gravy was originally designed to help horses keep cool during games of water polo. Its brown colour helped to disguise any droppings left by the horses on the bottom of the swimming pool. Tragically, during a game between Iceland and Bognor Regis¹, a horse slipped and fell, and no one noticed for seven minutes because the gravy was too opaque. The horse couldn't be resuscitated, and had to be used as dogfood. Ever since then, both gravy and horses have been banned from water polo, and the phrase "browns, seasons, thickens" is considered taboo.

These days, water polo uses clear seawater, and players ride dolphins, which can survive for three days without air. All that remains as a memento of Pongo the Magnificent is the gravy you pour on to your unidentified supermarket meat pie, which almost certainly contains horse if it contains any meat at all.

¹ Since Queen Elizabeth II said "Bugger Bognor," residents have started referring to the town as East Pagham.

reports of my death resulting from the explosion of aerosolised #gravy powder are to be treated as counter-factual, and
