Favourite dishes such as lasagnes, curries and spag bol could be at risk of dying out as four out of five shun cooking meals they fear will stain their favourite crockery, cutlery and pans. Numerous classic Brit dishes, including cheesy pasta bakes and sticky toffee pudding, all face the chopping block as 83.9% of houseproud foodies admit there are dishes they may never cook again for fear of stains.
Because of this, more than half (54%) of us are resorting to using disposable cookware, crockery and cutlery so they can bin the mess and 'save' their homeware. The survey, conducted by Finish, revealed that more than half of Brits (60%) admit feeling embarrassed in front of guests by their day-to-day crockery and cookware like pans and casserole dishes due to stains.
Curry was a dish a fifth (18%) of Brits avoid cooking, closely followed by sticky toffee pudding (17%) due to staining potential.Hot on its heels was lasagne and moussaka (both 14%) while cheesy pastas including bolognese (12%) and macaroni cheese (11%) were ones Brits avoid whipping up in the kitchen.
