My two weeks in the UK soon came to an end and we are now back home in China.
On previous visits my wife was not able to survive when not partaking of rice at least twice a day. So she stayed at home this visit.
However our daughter, who accompanied me on this trip relished the Western Menu. Especially when she was introduced to Tabasco sauce, the red label made in the USA. The green bottle received little attention from her as it was too mild!
That was liberally spread on everything from steaks to fish and chips and she even managed it with pizza and lasagne.
She also became well acquainted with British chocolate and sweets (candy). Her case was literally packed with various chocolate and 40 tubes of Rollo was just part of the presents that she was taking back to everyone she knew.

That sounds like she had a great time, and also learned quite a bit! Glad you had a good trip and are safely at home!

Willy the Red label Tabasco is close to a religion in New Mexico. Every restraunt here has a bottle setting on the table. Even the Chinese restraunts have bottles of it .It comes in three different sizes. I like to eat it on eggs and hashbrowns.my wife likes it a little. Given a choice she will eat the Chinese peppers before she will eat tabasco.

Peppers - they family chew on them like candy. Hunan people like it hot! Until last week I had never seen a prawn salad consumed with Tabasco though!

I've never seen it used on a prawn salad either. I have seen it used on a bloody Mary. A bloody Mary is a drink used to cure a hangover. One of the main ingredients is Tabasco sauce.

... and here I "Hate" Tabasco Sauce! I do love "Snake" (Rattle Snake that is). I was asked by Qings brother if I would like some and I agreed to try it for the first time on my last trip. I thought it tasted like fillet of Fish without the fish smell. It wasn't cheap, right up there with "Birdnest Soup". Now that is something I need to be somewhat blastered before trying that :-\.
Jim, you have a great time and a wonderful trip.
