£1 Fish Man!
There are market traders, and then there are MARKET TRADERS!
Known by his fans as the '£1 Fish Man', this Queens Market legend knows how to get people to buy his produce: sell them cheap and through the power of song.
So, if you happen to be heading to Upton Park for the game, or just knocking about the area one weekend, be sure to keep an eye and an ear out for this joker. Legend indeed!
Thanks JK for bringing this to my attention!

Greek Simplicity
Don't ever buy tzatziki from a shop. Why? Because there really is no need you lazy so and so. Instead, buy the following and make it yourself, it's ridiculously easy and you get loads more than with the shop bought stuff.
Makes one big bowl:
1 tub of Greek yoghurt (500g)
1 long cucumber
1 lemon
a generous handful of fresh mint leaves
Start by grating roughly half of the cucumber into a bowl, don't use a fine grater as you still want to maintain a degree of texture. Squeeze as much water as you can out of this and then mix in the yoghurt.
Finely slice your mint leaves into ribbons and stir these through the yoghurt. Season well with salt and pepper, add a good squeeze of lemon, mix once more and pour a good glug of extra virgin olive oil over the top. Finish off with a few more chopped mint leaves as a garnish.
All you need now are your crisps of choice. On this occasion I went for jalapeno Kettle Chips, a winning combo which didn't last very long at all. Oh and don't forget the ice cold beers...

Food Challenge Time
Meet Chuck from the Bronx, he's an odd individual who enjoys taking on random food challenges for no apparent reason.
In the videos below he munches a whole raw onion, drinks a pint of vinegar, eats a ghost chilli and in the funniest clip of them all he tries chowing down cinnamon powder, lots of it.
Why, why, why!?
