Brian Regan Quotes
I have a friend who swears by food combinations - have you heard of this nonsense? She's nuts. She's like, 'You know what?

And then her examples are like, 'You wouldn't want to eat steak and potatoes together, but you could have, like, a lemon rind and raisin skins - not the whole raisin, take the skins and steam them.
