I just went into the kitchen and found a large bag of pistachios that DH bought.

I thought 'Oh they look nice, I'll have one.'

I reckon I ate about sixty. I have a little shameful mountain of shells to show for it.

Those salt & vinegar or smokey barbecue Jacob's cracker crisps.

Ceebs85 · 02/09/2018 03:56

Jaffa cakes. Could easily (and sometimes do) eat a full packet. Even easier since they reduced the packet size to 10 Angry

Wotsits, one bag isn't enough

Tunnocks teacakes. They're tiny!

@EasilyFlattered they have omitted the walnuts from whips (I know! Walnutless whips!? Hmm ) so lucky for you, you can share Wink. Maybe just buy a couple more packets?

For me anything that is a biscuit! I can never just have one biscuit.

I also struggle to only have one slice of cake if we ever have any in. Blush I just think “ooh, that was good, I’ll just have another tiiiiiny piece.”
So I’ll cut the tiniest piece - so tiny it hardly counts. Then another tiny piece. Before I know it those tiny pieces have added up to a massive slab and I’ve eaten the lot!

BusySittingDown · 02/09/2018 07:58

Yy to Lindor chocolates Bluesheep! I think DH has a weakness for those too. They’re so sickly though, you kind of regret it afterwards!

Cherries

However I did learn that eating a whole punnet is a brilliant laxative

Pickled onions are surprisingly moreish, especially with nice cheddar cheese in bite-size chunks.

adaisychain · 02/09/2018 16:12

Also, chicken nuggets...

luckycat007 · 02/09/2018 16:58

And Melba toast, crisp breads. Carr's water crackers.

Hot, crispy little ones you find at the bottom of the bag from the chippy.

The teeny ones are just bits of batter. We used to ask for extra 'bits' when we went to the chippy as kids. Think there was once a thread about what they're called in different parts of the country but every agreed they were the best part.

notsurewhatshappening · 02/09/2018 21:18

I'm OK with most things but I have a huge weakness for bakery chic chip cookies- they come in a pack of 5 and are large and slightly chewy. I bought a pack today and ate them all at once in the car Blush ...200 calories each so 1000 in total! It was worth it, though. I hardly ever buy them as I can't eat just one

Crunchymum · 02/09/2018 21:26

You thought you'd have one pistachio? As in one nut? Confused
