Cutting up my sandwiches this morning for my dinner, sliced my thumb so stuck a plaster on it.
Preparing tea tonight for me and my son and wondered where my plaster went.
Turned up in my sons mixed veg melody that I had made.
He wouldnt finish his meal after discovering it. Dont know why? The veg was all fresh...
//Was it a proper chef's blue plaster? If not, why not?//
Im not a proper chef Tills thats why ;-) With all this coronavirus thing going about perhaps it should be yellow?
I'm reminded of when I noticed a sliced green bean in my custard in a Brighton restaurant. On pointing it out to the waitress, she simply smiled and said "Don't worry about it. We won't charge any extra for it" ;-)
I know you're not a chef but if you are so negligent with your use of plasters, maybe you should get some that can be spotted. Don't use ones that blend in with vegetable medley! :-)
I feel for your son. That must have been horrible to discover.
Something similar happened at my local butchers. He applied a plaster to his finger and continued making the sausages filling the skins with the meat when he noticed the plaster was gone. It was eventually found in one of the sausages on the rope. He calmly cut that sausage out and continued the job. I didn't ever buy his sausages again.
I sliced the very top of a finger off while dicing beef and it fell in the saucepan. I couldn't see it , so carried on cooking tea and didn't say anything until everyone had eaten! Extra meat rations.
Oh blimey, roopower.
I always used to cut my fingers when cooking. I’m sure someone must have eaten a tiny bit of me.
Re plasters: I keep getting a pop up of an ad for a packet of multi-toned flesh-coloured plasters. It shows people of colour being thrilled that someone has finally made plasters to match their skin tone. Was this a problem for black and brown people before?
