Orzo - don't buy it
Left to fend for myself the last few days, I have managed to run out of coffee.
Found a jar of Nescafe someone gave us as a joke a few years back, but there was no way I was stooping that low. Deep in the bowells of the cantina I found a packet of Orzo. Tried it and can report "Yuck" - might as well have been macinated Orso dung. I know there are clear camps on the Marmite thing, and just wondered how the forum shaped up on this particular matter of conseqence? Go vote on the survey Last edited by Ghianda; 29-04-09 at 10:15 AM.. Reason: typos due to lack of caffeine

Terrible, awful, undrinkable potion. And I must report that it is raining over many areas of Europe. I am sick of this weather. Now, where is my coffee fix.....

I got confused with so many options, so I voted for all of them.

Well there ya go....Just proves how different we all are. I gave up fresh brewed caffe latte for my breakfast sometime ago. Still loooove my espresso after lunch and supper (couldn't do without 'em) and that's it.
My breakfast drink for sometime has been soluble caffe/orzo in hot milk... I buy a german version. Orzo on it's own is, I agree, pretty dire (not to say blo*dy awful) - but a bowl of strong caffe/orzo I really do enjoy!

thanks for the link from which I have lifted (out of context needless to say) the following "Although traditionally considered a coffee substitute for children" Seems like a fair swap to me. Am now enjoying watching the box of Orzo flare in the mighty Termostufa
