People who think they are always right and ram their opinions down your throat. No-one knows everything. Those who shout loudest are usually the ones who actually know the least.

I forgot the thing that's always in my fridge.

Red and white cabbage, and onion all finely shredded on my trusty mandolin. A handful of that goes a long way.

Customer helplines that use recorded menus that promise to put me through to the right person but never do - and being ill. Oh, and did I mention customer helplines :)

Depends on your definition of 'Superfoods' really if by superfoods you mean foods that allow me to eat a normal healthy diet rather than foods I like then my top superfoods would be:

Basmati Rice
Wholegrain Bread
Burgen Bread
New Potatoes boiled in their skins
Red Wine

Peppermint Tea - I like the peppermint tea benefits I gain from this with lime juice
Almonds - for good fats, alkalinity, and energy
Cucumbers - refreshing
Basmati rice - carbohydrates
Fish - fish for protein or some other seafood as a superfood because of the omega fats
