Pictures from the NAFFE

The NAFFE is the British Army's version of an American PX, which is a place that the military personnel can go on base to get supplies (set up like a Target) from their home country. We have full privileges, so we can shop here as well. Here are some of the pictures that I took at the NAFFE of British food that I found to be comical in size, appearance or name. Enjoy!

i suppose calling them rolls is to the point too :)

please mom! can i have some tuna and mayonnaise paste today?
yeah right!

i feel like this is a contradiction...innocent kids?

i really like the name of this butter.
i would love asking someone to get it for me from the store or for directions to get it.

this is definitely something kelsey or paul would buy

frubes! get it? fruit tubes! genius :)

classic...frankfurters in germany

if you can't tell, that is my foot by that bottle of bacardi and it is huge in comparison!

in most of europe, it is the law that there have to be warnings on the packaging
of cigarettes...this one was my favorite
i've got whosits and wotsits galore! (little mermaid) 
squash...aka juice. this is the best kind :)

this bag of m&m's made me think of women's sanitary napkins...

this made me think of the chronicles of narnia.
the girl working at the naffe said they were 'just plain nasty.'

this doesn't look appetizing to me

yum...i would love to eat some chunks...wouldn't you?
saying that makes me feel like i am going to blow chunks...

not diet pepsi, but pepsi diet!
hula hoop potato crisps (potato chips)

pickled onion?

roast chicken?

steak and onion?

prawn cocktail?

tomato ketchup...this one seemed the most harmless

gag me...smoky bacon chips?

notice the american flag design at the top...
do they think that 't-bone steak' flavoured chips equal americans?

just in case the normal size doesn't cut it...mansize!
(i asked one of the staff if they actually used them and they said that they are 'quite nice'
and a lot like a blanket for your nose when you are sick...i think i am going
to have to buy a box before i leave)

doner kebab?

the beautiful gummy ring from kayla...chosen just for me...notice the color combination!

delicious...i had to eat some before i even took the picture :)
