More reasons?!?!

Perhaps Morrisons are taking advantage of all the empty shops in Britain as they’ve announced that they are to open a number of convenience stores and, in addition to that, are looking to start selling their groceries online.

Britain’s fourth biggest grocer has decided to go for the jugular as they announced that they’re currently getting an extra 800,00 bodies through their doors every week. This is despite the fact they’ve got some of the worst adverts on television. The store said it would begin to trial its first convenience stores, which presumably will be like Tesco Extra Express shops, in 2011.

New chief executive Dalton Philips told Sky: “Today we are outlining plans to build on our strengths and generate profitable growth. I am determined to make Morrisons better than ever.”

Start by running a mop around some of your stores. Some of them are absolutely minging. Not mentioning any in particular!!

Fatter Free

Given the choice between educating their lardy kids in the ways of healthy eating and exercise, or a way to keep serving up orange food in breadcrumbs that’ll kill the children a little slower, parents will invariably choose the path of least resistance. Philipsrecognised this determined apathy, and so have created the AirFryer.

It looks like a deep fat fryer, until you open the lid and find there’s no oil inside. In fact you only need to add a spoonful of oil before cooking; hot air is then circulated around a grill component at high speed, cooking burgers and chicken nuggets in around nine minutes. The result is food that contains up to 80% less fat.

Philips are quoted as saying they hope to solve the problem of UK’s fat-laden diet, but since it’s still heavily processed food you’re likely to pile into it, it doesn’t really address the underlying issue. How much will it cost to have this lard-busting piece of plastic in your kitchen? Between £120 and £200.
