I have no idea what that is, but that's not it. ;~}

And it's not a food, but it's about food.


Ooh... hmm... interesting... :)

Do you still remember? :)

If not... it's probably one of these :)

pinemasticaser - handy device for popping in the mouth following an over-indulgence in raw garlic. Comes with pine refills and takes just a few minutes to infuse breath with a pleasant forest scent.

sinearse-impact - so called because of the trail (resembling a sine wave) which is left by the... um... rear end... when it impacts a loose grainy surface at speed. Often requires an angular descent or some form of chaotic veering prior to impact.

miapincerasset - a term coined by Zsa Zsa Gabor when referring to her bits

tsar-mice-in-peas - pre-revolution Russian delicacy.

sincerepisamat - covering designed to compensate for uneven flooring. Inspired by some of the issues brought to light by an Italian landmark building.

an aseptic miser - NOT a septic miser

There :) Just a matter of waiting for your pm now :)

You truly have an enlightened mind, Annie. :~)

But I do remember the word, and it is none of those.

ictmepsinsaaer

So... you REALLY remember the word then Gordon *enigmatic smile (anniet version) attempt 1* Excellent! Means it will be one of these then! YAY!! :)

*adopt far away look - preferably to a horizon... somewhere... and.... open-anniet's-English-language-expansion-pack* It'snotcheatingokay... *insulted sniff* it's to ensure you get the most accurate definitions available.

There's...

catnapmiseries - any event that makes a cat have to open an eye or two, discover you haven't woken them to give them a steak, and then use it/them to either: glare; or to look down upon you (for you being the inferior species that you are)
...obviously.

*turn some pages* ...and this one which has fallen out of use...

sincetamparise - Ye Olde Englishe word describing food - after it has been cooked, and before it has been eaten (at which point it is then called gonne)

Two the medical profession would rather we didn't know about - and why you're VERY unlikely to find them in ... well ... any dictionary of earth originnings anyway...

anatimicapseer - diagnostic tool worn on the head and used by GP's when their broadband crashes and they can no longer use google to work out what's wrong with their patients. Works on similar basis as crystal balls, tea leaves, and tarot cards.

septicaemiarns - risk associated with overuse of anatimicapseers

And the following three which have been subjected to aggressive suppression by the food industry... from whom I expect to be sat on soon after I click "post reply" *adopt matyred air*

impastariences - frustrating moments with linguine and spaghetti in particular. Specifically when they launch themselves from an open packet in a cascade of pale yellow spears all over the floor leaving you clutching just one to feed a family of four with.

emancipateriss - the packet in which spaghetti and linguine are packaged-in, prior to their arrival in your cupboard.

insectapearism - the phenomenon whereby something wriggly unvisibles itself on food you have already taken at least one bite out of.

And this one... *eat spare n* ...which hasn't been suppressed but rather... ignored...
sesamepictiar - the alternative spelling used to differentiate between images made from: cultivated seeds (picture); and the still wild growing African seeds (pictiar) - of a flowering plant in the genus Sesamum.

And finally...
bdfghjkloquvwx alternative spelling of ictmepsinsaaer once ictmepsinsaaer has been unjumbled. The only definition I could find for it is that it is an act of mercy (performed by the setter of a jumbled word) either by: rapidly euthanasing their victim once they've gone raving mad, or by; granting assistance (via some form of clue that goes beyond it's "not a food but is something to do with food") at some point before they do

There :) SOLVED! :)

My head is still spinning from the possibilities, but believe it or not, the word is still unsolved, and I actually still remember it. ;~) You are in the right department, talking about food.

Oh. *gaze up at Gordon's new clue* That's it is it...

*firmly grip end of nose to avoid major wrinkling-up-in-disgust event*

Ok... well how about these? :)

a panier tic mess: complete and utter basket case. Early symptoms include: attempting word jumbles; wild twitching; nervous tics; and irreversible brain damage. Sudden and catastrophic loss of all social skills is hastened by demented repetition (whilst shuffling the streets aimlessly) of phrases such as:
"so I'm in the right department am I - it IS about food - oh well that's REALLY helped" and;
"I don't CARE that it's not one word".

messianic pate'r: inhouse chef of Messianic Lodge specialising in creating top secret varieties of pate, allegedly sourcing their main ingredient by monitoring internet forums featuring word jumbles.

stripee maniacs: imprisoned a panier tic messes. Usually entering the penal system on charges of graffiti, vandalising the text on posters and signs, and creating disturbances in supermarkets - once in the system their crimes escalate rapidly to include stalking and assault. Triggered predominantly whilst their fellow inmates are queuing for meals, they hallucinate on the patterns in prison garb and believe them to be letters of the alphabet which need to be rearranged. Whereupon they do. Root cause of most prison riots.

icmi-pants-easer: device similar to the shoe horn to assist in overcoming the side effects of having a second helping of absolutely everything at your last meal. Icmi (officially an acronym of "Improved Clothing-Management Inventions") is rather an acronym of the term "I can't make it..." and is almost always followed by an excuse with no basis in fact whatsoever.

creasems-in-pita: similar to holems-in-pancakes and lumpens-in-naan, the uneven surface typically seen on the surface of a particular variety of flatbread.

saacee-imprints: (variant spelling: sake-depressions). Term used for dents in sushi. Caused by over-indulgence of rice wine culminating in staggering chefs falling onto trays of the traditional Japanese food prior to it being served.

pisciansteamer: anything that annoys fish, particularly things that cook them in hot vapours.

patissierecman: recreation officer specialising in team building between pastry chefs. One of many new management and admin levels invented by human resources departments.

taamericsipens: the correct etiquette when drinking a liquid form of turmeric - whereby prior to each sip the sipper is expected to say "taaaa" slowly and "verymuch" fast.

Recently revealed - literally about two minutes ago - under the freedom of information act - on the anniet newsfeed.
Why Thailand was never colonised...
Siampearinsect: Hairy caterpillar (with highly alluring appearance and beguilingly beautiful eyes) that lives in the tropical pear groves of what is now modern day Thailand. Known locally as the amnesia worm - it was popped onto food served to visiting let's-stick-a-flag-in-this-bit-of-the-planet-and-call-it-ours types, where the caterpillars' antics proved so charming - the flag stickers would promptly forget what they had come for, only to return every few months or so to try again - and again be amnesia-erd.

...which I believe *stare straight into monitor at Gordon* is what you might be suffering from every time you read one of my posts :)

A creaminess tip

Or

Pescetarianism /ˌpɛskɨˈtɛəriən/ (also spelled pescatarianism) is the practice of following a diet that includes fish or other seafood, but not the flesh of other animals. A pescetarian diet typically shares many of its components with a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet and may include vegetables, fruit, nuts, grains, beans, eggs, dairy, and insect byproducts (such as honey, carmine, or shellac), but a vegetarian diet excludes meat. The Merriam-Webster dictionary dates the origin of the term pescetarian to 1993 and defines it as: "one whose diet includes fish but no other meat."

Oh. *point nose vertically into the air*

(screenshot - anniet selfie --> _m_

"Merriam-Webster" eh? *sniff* well... if you insist... *Longest blink ever blinked by an anniet* of course 1993 WAS known as the year of the great Merriam-Webster fish fraud...

:)

well done... I think... and thank you :) you know... for putting me out of my misery :)))))

roti-esk-esk: aka dik-dik-on-a-stick, sadly :( Teeny tiny very cute species of African deer that likes daintily rubbing their eyes on long thorns and would prefer NOT to be turned into skewered food, but often is...

edit: Oh... the eye thing - think it's something to do with scent marking but I could be COMPLETELY wrong :)

Of course - not as wrong as telekinesis :)

@Anniet. About a week and a half ago. I almost bounced a White Tail deer off my front bumper. Driving late at night. And a 6 or 7 point buck run out in the road. Brakes work. Then it ran along side my car for a little. I know my car is "red" and I am a bit heavy around the middle. But I'm not doing Santa Claus Reindeer try outs. That's for the big guy himself to hold.
Now you are on the right continent with the word. Just need to figure the correct spelling.

(Edit) You can't eat telekinesis.
