We don't do Velveeta in this country, thank you.
I don't think Ferran Adria does cucumber sandwiches either - or, if he does, they wouldn't be recognised as the cucumber sandwiches we know and love. They'd be molecularised down to the very limit of existence.
I'll have another sherry please, as I sit here preparing my list. Planning to consult Osso, the guru later.
LOrd, another citizen of the world!!!! Dry or dryer? (Lawks, when did I last see the sherry!?)

Erm...that's, like, milk in a fizzy drink, right?

Buncha food Nazis. "OOOH, look at me, Im too refined to eat velveeta on my cucumber sammich. SCuse me while I slice all the crusts off the bread and feed them to my partridges" Probly never ate a real hoagie either
If you wish to be ravished in every possible orifice with turnips operated by cranky hippoes, you're going the right way about it.
Now, eat your delicate sammies and enjoy them.
