Mine are

Cheeseboard especially cranberry cheeses
Walkers sensation Californian honey nuts
Lindt milk and white balls

Proper from Turkey, proper Turkish Delight. Y'know, proper, none of that Frys muck
Cambozola with celery and nuts and very posh Peters Yard crispbreads and wanky crackers with nuts in - Millers or something. Maybe some wanky homemade cranberry compote on the side
Shedloads of Prosecco with a Faileys chaser
Homemade mince pies, pastry light as a feather
Some more Prosecco

I'm a simple creature.
Homemade sausage rolls washed down with De Kuypers cherry brandy.
Don't like anything with dried fruit - mince pies, Christmas cake and the like, don't like nuts, kettle chips are so hard and bland, and you couldn't may me to eat a fig roll.

I do mourn the loss of proper twiglets though, the ones that were a good length and really marmitey. The tub I bought recently contained mere twig crumbs with barely any flavour Xmas Hmm

Damsel - twiglets in a big bag are normal sized. It's just those stupid tubs are too small so they make the twigs smaller.

DD saw the tub at the supermarket and got excited, until I pissed on her chips and said they were stunted failures. The bags were fortunately on BOGOF so her dismay was short lived.
