Horrible things but out comes the advertising every Christmas! Who buys these yucky, nutty, tasteless things?

LOVE them.

Schwibble · 09/12/2019 20:14

I love them, especially frozen Grin

ItFigures · 09/12/2019 20:14

Really enjoy the odd one

ThinkIamflyingundertheradar · 09/12/2019 20:14

I love Ferrero Rocher I just wish they weren’t so over packaged.

TeaAddict235 · 09/12/2019 20:15

Love

Love 'em

Hoppinggreen · 09/12/2019 20:15

I hate them.
Somebody bought me some the other day, DD ate one and said “it’s like a posh Happy Hippo isn’t it mum?”

Spitsandspots · 09/12/2019 20:17

Love them.

AlwaysDancing1234 · 09/12/2019 20:20

I love them but never seem to get given them!

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 09/12/2019 20:21

If any of the haters are given Ferrero Rocher for Christmas, let me be the first to offer to take them off your hands.

It is a public service I am happy to perform!

Loopytiles · 09/12/2019 20:23

Like them v much, but DC2 and I are the only ones of DH’s whole family who do, they all dislike nuts, as I presume you do OP.

dementedma · 09/12/2019 20:23

Adore them, but never tried frozen ones. Will rectify that asap!

Doingtheboxerbeat · 09/12/2019 20:27

Another fan, they're so moreish and I don't eat shit loads of chocolate. I love the fact that there are people that hate them as they are the same people who hate the Bounty and Snickers in the celebrations - the only ones I will eat.

MymbleClement · 09/12/2019 20:30

Oh I love them but I am the only one in my office who does - which is handy as we seem to get given a new box every week at the moment! But not great for my waistline...

ShinyDolphin · 09/12/2019 20:31

How can you not like them!? Delicious!!!

RustyBear · 09/12/2019 20:32

By the way, you can't build a pyramid out of them without some kind of support, not even if you're an ambassador.

I know, because my BIL used to be an ambassador and one Easter we took Ferrero Rocher eggs for the whole family. He commandeered all the chocolates and spent about 45 minutes over breakfast trying to build a pyramid. You can't do it.

TemporaryUsernameAIBU · 09/12/2019 20:32

Hazelnut flavour is my favourite thing ever, but people are surprised I don’t like Ferrari Russia as my son calls them.

Too much water.

All talk and no trousers.

TemporaryUsernameAIBU · 09/12/2019 20:33

Bloody autocorrect.

wafer

VanyaHargreeves · 09/12/2019 20:34

You realise this is a massive insult to The Ambassador right?

They're his finest!

You'll not be invited to his soirees anymore @MilkTrayLimeBarrel

letsdolunch321 · 09/12/2019 20:35

Love them 🥰

OrangeZog · 09/12/2019 20:41

Love them and the Ferraro eggs that will come out next year for Easter.

thistimelastweek · 09/12/2019 20:45

Totally with the O P. They are nasty

NoNameIdeas · 09/12/2019 20:46

Yes yes yes, LOVE them!

30to50FeralHogs · 09/12/2019 20:54

Err yes! They are the epitome of class, especially when stacked in a pyramid and served by a butler (only a little bit joking)

And for other people who like them, I also introduced my DCs to Ferrero style pancakes yesterday:

You make some crepes, cover them with Nutella, sprinkle with chopped roasted hazelnuts, fold them up, then stuff in your face.

Here is the recipe, such as it is

ToEarlyForDecorations · 09/12/2019 20:55

Yuck. Eating them is:

Thankless. Tasteless. Pointless.

To much wafer. Chocolate riddled with nuts. I feel cheated out my chocolate fix. Chocolate Nutella filling dries my tongue. (But I'll gladly eat Nutella.) When I've finally got though that assault course there's a nut in the middle.

I'm not a big fan of wafers. Personally Ferrero Rocher are all fur coat and no knickers IMO.

God they are just hard work.

iklboodolphrednosedreindeer · 09/12/2019 20:55

They're disgusting. Like chocolate coated squirrel shit.
