What are your latest food discoveries/obsessions?

[SwizzelStick]

I'm always looking for something new to try.

At the moment my current obsessions are Cameroonian spaghetti omelettes and Alka Elephant squeezed pretzels. The latter are a bit too salty for my tastes but they're still addictive and I don't feel as though I'm going to break a tooth on them, unlike some other pretzel snacks.

What are your current food obsessions?

Itsu prawn crackers! I can only open a bag if I'm prepared to eat the whole lot!

@SamBeckett @SwizzelStick like halloumi fries but made with hot dogs. Breaded deep fried dawgs really! First ate them in New York & got hooked

@tolleshunt; that peanut butter sounds epic! I'm on the hunt....
In the good corner we have M&S salad sundries, the kimchi coleslaw is epic and the supergreens salad too. Makes my pack up exciting.

In the naughty corner we have Icelands Hash Brown fries. Epic with a mushroom omlette for dinner and a shit load of ketchup.
It's all about balance in this house!

And another couple of things on the post pregnancy scoff list-

Manomasa tortilla chips with chipotle and lime. So moreish and crunchy and just the right amount of seasoning.

Tony's Chocolonely chocolate - weird name but amazing chocolate and fair trade/anti slavery. Had just discovered it when I was diagnosed with GD so had to give the last huge chunk to DH

Another Marmite flatbreads addict here SamBeckett, dangerously moreish aren't they? And Marmite cashew nuts 😋

Thank you Winterhare. I'll have to try them.

@WinterHare oooh that sounds good , >> adds hot dogs to shopping list

Boiled baby potatoes
Crushed
Seasoned with Himalayan salt, pepper and smoked paprika

Diiiivine!

@Strawberry they are indeed. I wish I could get a box of them that weren't all broken though

Water buffalo burgers
Water buffalo sausages
Water buffalo ice cream (tried the espresso and stracciatella so far) Lush! 😋

Recently discovered our new favorite farm shop 🐃

Venezuelan chocolate icecream from Coop.
Chocolate coated sunflower seeds from Lidll.
Piel melons much better taste than other melons also from Lidll.

Heritage or baby plum tomatoes, sliced with fresh thyme.

How come i never had this before? I always used to put basil with tomatoes, Never again. This is addictive. Been eating it all summer. Sometimes with a bit of salt or olive oil but just those two ingredients are sublime.

millie I agree that thyme is lovely with tomato. I often make tomato sauce and soup with thyme instead of basil. Rosemary is lovely too.

Literally on the table in 10 minutes. We actually use cheddar instead of Parmesan too

@tellmewhenthespaceshiplandscoz, I love you.

Cornish seasalt smoked flavour . Makes everything taste amazing !

Salmon poke bowls.

Stir some rice wine and soy sauce into cooked rice. Top with cooked salmon, kimchi, steamed veg like brocoli or spinach, sushi ginger, and sprinkle with sesame or other seeds.

Cauliflower. Anything cauliflower.

Sainsbury's marinated cauliflower steaks with chimichurri marinade are nice.

McDonald's breakfast wrap

I discovered cauliflower hash browns,
they are so yummy

Lowering the standard here
I found out some of those really cheap I stand noodles that you cook with a flavouring sachet are vegan. Eating so much

Tinned mackerel in brine

watermelon, can get through a whole one in a day

Mashed avocado and feta cheese, chili flakes, thickly spread on a fresh seeded loaf (from lidl bakery).
I cannot get enough of this at the moment.

Anybody else noticed that virtually everything listed on this thread is hellish salty!

My contribution is home grown kefir. Addicted to it. No salt though!
