Hi, way off topic but I have a few questions about the beige. I have been beige for about 5 days now. 1. How much cheating is allowed? Do you cheat much? (eg one slice of normal cheddar). Does cheating a bit just write off the whole experiment? 2. How long until you felt better? So far I feel worse. First off a couple of days of headaches due to caffeine withdrawal. Emotionally I am definately worse, my hayfever is way worse, but I have found that the chronic muscle pain is going. 3. Any tasty beige recipes? I'm losing a bit of weight but I think it is because the food is so boring and terrible and I don't feel like eating any of it. It drives me nuts - eg this afternoon we were making ice slushies and I had to turn my back on the lemon tree in the yard groaning with tasty vitamin C laden lemons and whisk up some sugar and citric acid.
I hated it. The delightfully uni-student joshing around between the original UK presenters wasn't there, and neither was the amusingly self-deprecating British humour.
And most of all, the 'most learned' - or most pontificating - presenter, the Jeremy Clarkson supposed analogue, turned out to lack JC's redeeming features of taking it with good grace when ragged on by the other two.
In summary, there was no real chemistry between them, and I felt it didn't work. :(
