Tripe Marketing Board
The Tripe Marketing Board is a UK based online publication which seeks to promote the consumption of tripe through the use of humour. The ''Los Angeles Times'' has described the group as an "internet and publishing phenomenon that may or may not be completely serious". It parodies defunct government organisations such as the milk and potato marketing boards. History The group came to prominence in 2012 when it managed to persuade a number of serious media outlets that it was a real entity. '' The Mirror'' interviewed a tripe seller in Blackburn about the attempt to improve the public perception of tripe. Reporters at ''The Times'' newspaper investigated the TMB a number of days later, concluding that it was a 'very funny spoof'. The ''Lancashire Life'' website explained that the Tripe Marketing Board had been created by the authors of a humorous guide called ''Forgotten Lancashire and Parts of Cheshire and the Wirral'' by Dr Derek J Ripley, and had then been taken seriously by j ...

The ''Los Angeles Times'' (abbreviated as ''LA Times'') is a daily newspaper that started publishing in Los Angeles in 1881. Based in the LA-adjacent suburb of El Segundo since 2018, it is the sixth-largest newspaper by circulation in the United States. The publication has won more than 40 Pulitzer Prizes. It is owned by Patrick Soon-Shiong and published by the Times Mirror Company. The newspaper’s coverage emphasizes California and especially Southern California stories.

In recent decades the paper's readership has declined, and it has been beset by a series of ownership changes, staff reductions, and other controversies. In January 2018, the paper's staff voted to unionize and final ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Milk Marketing Board

Slogans included "full of natural goodness", "is your man getting enough?", "milk's gotta lotta bottle" (written by the advertising executive Rod Allen), and "drinka pinta milka day" designed by the advertising agency Ogilvy. In the 1980s, they ran the advert "Accrington Stanley, Who Are They?". The campaigns were largely on ITV television, but were also printed on the returnable milk bottles delivered by milkmen.

Marketing Board
A marketing board is an organization created by many producers to try to market their product and increase consumption and thus prices. It can also be defined as an organization set up by a government to regulate the buying and selling of a certain commodity within a specified area. They most commonly exist to help sell farm products such as milk, eggs, beef or tripe and are funded by the farmers or processors of those crops or products. Marketing boards often also receive funding from governments as an agricultural subsidy. The leadership and strategies of the marketing boards are set through votes by the farmers who are members of the board. Marketing boards also sometimes act as a pool, controlling the price of farm products by forming a legal cartel. They also fund other ventures beneficial to their members such as research. Marketing boards differ from industry trade groups in that their primary goal is marketing towards consumers, not governments, but they may also lobby on ...

Samuel Pepys
Samuel Pepys (; 23 February 1633 – 26 May 1703) was an English diarist and naval administrator. He served as administrator of the Royal Navy and Member of Parliament and is most famous for the diary he kept for a decade. Pepys had no maritime experience, but he rose to be the Chief Secretary to the Admiralty under both King Charles II and King James II through patronage, diligence, and his talent for administration. His influence and reforms at the Admiralty were important in the early professionalisation of the Royal Navy. The detailed private diary that Pepys kept from 1660 until 1669 was first published in the 19th century and is one of the most important primary sources for the English Restoration period. It provides a combination of personal revelation and eyewitness accounts of great events, such as the Great Plague of London, the Second Dutch War, and the Great Fire of London.

Tripas
''Tripas'', in Mexican cuisine (known as chitterlings in English-speaking countries), are the small intestines of farm animals that have been cleaned, boiled and grilled. ''Tripas'' are used as filling for tacos, and then dressed with condiments such as cilantro, chopped onions, and chile sauce. They are also served with ''pico de gallo'' and ''guacamole''. Preparation Tripas as prepared Mexican style require care by the cook, to avoid becoming rubbery. They are traditionally cooked in a "''Disco''" which is constructed of two tilling discs (commonly used in the farming industry) welded to an iron pole in the center of the discs to form a wok like bowl on top of the pole with another disc about below it. The ''tripas'' are placed in the top disc and filled with water while the lower disc is filled with wood or charcoal, thus creating the heat to cook. The ''tripas'' are boiled for several hours until tender, adding water as needed. Once they are tender the cook will allow the ...

Tripas à Moda Do Porto
Tripas à moda do Porto or dobrada à moda do Porto in Portuguese cuisine is a dish of beef stomach made with tripe with white beans, carrots and rice. It is considered the traditional dish of the city of Porto, in Portugal, and widely known across the entire country where it is also simply called dobrada. History It is said that in 1415 the dish was created in Porto where the shipyard of Lordelo do Ouro was located. The ships and boats being secretly built there would take the Portuguese to Ceuta and, later, to the epic of the Portuguese Discoveries. Many and varied were the rumors about this achievement: some said the boats were destined to transport the Infanta D. Helena to England, where she would later marry; others said it was to take King D. João I to Jerusalem to visit the Holy Sepulchre; but there were still those who said that the armada was intended to lead the Infantes D. Pedro and D. Henrique to Naples, to marry. It was then that Infante D. Henrique unexpectedly sh ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
