What flavour crisps are the London underground lines?

Super-galactic travelling friends, 

the other day my partner and I visited London for the day, and while there it reminded me of a conversation we've had the last couple of times we visited...what flavour crisps are each of the underground lines?

Below is each underground line, and what flavour they could be. Some were fairly obvious in their flavours, while some my partner and I debated about. Let's see if you agree or disagree with our conclusions...

New notebook anxiety

paper and pencil divider
My super-galactic travelling friends, 

If you're anything like me, when you see a cute notebook while out and about you'll want to (and often do!) buy it.

If you do end up buying it, you'll usually be asking yourself that dreaded question...well, now what do I do with it?

Can you learn to love coriander?

Fellow super-galactic travellers,

We all have foods we're not a fan of, but may from time to time retry them on the off chance that maybe you were wrong, and liquorice is in fact a delicious treat that you've finally come to appreciate (spoiler, it will always taste terrible!)

Over the years I've learnt to appreciate lots of foods that I previously wasn't a fan of, and every time it opens the culinary world up just a little bit more for me. There are however, some things my palette still refuses to enjoy. Some of them are pretty easy to avoid, but there's one that's often hard to escape from...coriander.

Coriander (or cilantro) is very much one of those love it or hate it herbs, and for me it's always been on my hate list. Anytime I eat something with the scourge of a leaf hidden within it, my joy from that meal soon turns to sadness, and I have to hope after pulling it all out it hasn't imparted too much of its flavour onto the other ingredients around it, so I can somewhat enjoy the rest of my meal.

But you know what? I'm tired of coriander ruining my food!!! I want to eat a pho and not have to take out all the coriander! I want to enjoy a salsa at a restaurant that has hidden coriander in it rather than having to leave it on the side! I refuse to let coriander dictate what I can and can't eat any more!

The question is though, is it even possible to go from hating coriander, to liking it (or at least tolerating it)? I think it might be...

Third time's the charm?

Super-galactic travelling friends, why is receiving a delivery so dang hard!?
