I'm so old I Remember when:

Now you did it. Told everyone we eat a lot of junk food.

OH NO! Now we're ALL in trouble!
Our local high schools have "healthy" snacks - juices, baked chips, whole wheat pretzels, and such - available in machines the students can access. The ones in the faculty lounge have the "Good Stuff!"

We have coffee machines in many places: offices, hospitals, universities, community centers , etc.
Many machines offer: tea or hot water, coffee with or without milk/sugar, cappuccino, expresso, hot chocolate.

We have vending machines with snacks and canned drinks too sometimes. The soup/broth machines are dedicated machines and certainly not very common. I suppose people don’t like coffee with the taste of broth.

Hospital vending machine coffee is NASTY!! But when you're in the emergency room at 3 am and it's the only game in town, it's MANNA!

There is a peculiarly British (I think it is actually Scottish) dish called Kedgeree. When I look at a recipe for it today I feel like it is something I would like.

Never having heard of this, I looked up that recipe. It doesn't look like something I'd enjoy. OTOH I hear Scotch eggs are very tasty and am looking forward to attempting them. Any hints or tricks you can share?

Have you seen the video from Tasting History with Max Miller where he recreates it?

You beat me to it. I'll delete my post and heartily recommend yours to anyone interested.

Same here. Im sure I will enjoy Kedgeree if its made like this with Indian spices and some simple veggies like peas and tomatoes.

Scotch eggs are not exactly a health food - but they are very yummy!
I have never tried making them. As kids we were always fascinated by the thought on how they got the egg inside. I still don't know, but assume it is boiled before it is wrapped in the sausage.

That looks very similar to Kedgeree to me. But in Kedgeree the fish is all mixed in.

This looks like a rice pilaf, am I even close?

Remember when you were a young man, not you women of course, and you had a thought that you KNEW in your heart you shouldn’t say out loud but you said it anyway because the desire to see what would happen overwhelmed you? Well, I still do it as an old man, and the unknown outcomes are still very thrilling……at times.
