In an uncertain world it’s good to know that some things remain entirely predictable, such as the fury of Daily Mail readers (or, to be strictly accurate, Mail Online).

We mention this after the always followable @Otto_English over on Twitter shared this screengrab of a Daily Mail story about a pub where you can now buy a ‘ploughperson’s lunch’.

This is hilarious. pic.twitter.com/jTAMP9YrXI

Here’s the story in close-up.

But what we’re really here for is the comments.

And the last – and very best – word goes to @Otto_English.

This guy is wrong. The ploughman's lunch was actually invented in 1957 by the Cheese Bureau, which was created to promote cheese sales. The meal was a marketing invention. This is what I like to call Fake Dairy. pic.twitter.com/eW5o5v53c8

And if it’s really put you in the mood for this sort of thing, you can find lots more information about it over here!

Thoughts, prayers and directions to the nearest JD Wetherspoon for all those furious Mail readers.
