Hay and I were looking through the Aldi leaflet when we spotted it.
A wooden barbecue for children.
Hay looked at it for a moment and said: “Well, I suppose it’s single use.”
I replied:
“No, dual use. It makes the charcoal for the adult version.”
And that really is the perfect summary of modern barbecue culture. Spend £400 on a giant outdoor cooking station with shelves, hooks, gauges and wheels, only to produce six burnt sausages while standing in drizzle saying:
“It’s the charcoal that gives the flavour.”
Aldi have simply cut out the middleman. Straight from barbecue to fuel. Efficient German thinking.
