I ate a 32oz steak in Florida, it was like an episode of Man v Food

Have to agree with you there, the particular Asda near me (Bodmin in Cornwall) is absolutely shocking for fresh meat quality. Wouldn't touch any of their steaks with a barge pole. Morrisons at Liskeard however who have a fresh meat counter and a butcher who will cut you a bit of steak - different story

So went to the checkout, paid the bill on the company card not really paying attention and it was only when I got home I realised I'd just spent £180 on steak at the companies expense! It was marked per kilo. Stupid me, how could I possibly have thought all that meat was going to be for twelve quid.

Still, it is very nice.”

Hold on. You bought a 15kg chunk of fillet? I didn't know they made cows that big. Are you sure it wasn't elephant fillet?
