    Lol. The Brit comic Viz, used to have many tips like that.

    Out of gum, chew rubber bands with toothpaste.

    Fresh out of water chestnuts for a Chinese meal, serve your friends slices of raw potato

      Water chestnuts make me so angry it’s like I know I’m eating something here but why is there no flavor

        Have you tried that completely flavourless fresh Italian mozzarella they pair with tomatoes as an appetizer? Makes me gag; like it’s sucking the flavour OUT of my mouth

    Meh, you can hear if the stove is on. Just put your ear on top. If you hear frying noises it is on.
