Default Basic rations
I think this is the second time they will be on the basic food budget.Last time I did not see any arguments or complaints about lack of food, smokes or booze.?

I cannot see harmony amongst this bunch over the subject so hopefully they will show some of the outcomes and interactions this time round.

I don't know how C5 do it.

C4 used to raid the food stores. Strip them of everything. It was literally chickpeas and rice, from morning to night.

If C5 leave the leftover food from this week, then they won't suffer as much. That and C5 will still pump alcohol into the house.

Basic rations are no longer basic rations.

I didn't think it was basic rations any more? Isn't it just a basic shopping budget, so they choose what to buy but they just buy less?

Has anyone heard an amount of money mentioned in this series.? I don't recall it.In previous ones a sum is given and its fun to watch the arguments over how it should be spent.

Food, or the lack of it is a tool for arguments. We dont bloody need anymore arguments so keep them well fed. Why cant we see more fun stuff, its getting boring watching a lab experiment in aggression and conflict

They were miffed because it was totally avoidable. Marlon showed a total lack of team spirit in saving himself. The good thing is, he will be up and out next week. Where's that door .. open it!

: I like what you did there Daffodil.

Just seen a tweet where they are using the last of the peanut butter and chocolate spread, even in CBB they had the remaining food taken away
