3 of us, though DS always asks if there is any more, in the vain hope that I didn't bring it all to the table.

Albgo · 26/01/2021 15:31

Two or three people, but depends how hungry (greedy) they are. My husband could easily snarf a whole one on his own.

Lemondrops41 · 26/01/2021 15:32

2 - DP and I will have half each.

RogueV · 26/01/2021 15:32

2-3

3 sandwiches (I have to have an end bit!)

WishingHopingThinkingPraying · 26/01/2021 15:33

My 4 kids. 2 pieces each. But they're all little.

Scbchl · 26/01/2021 15:34

We stick on one between five of us. Me, dh, 16, 11 and 8 year old. If I made two it ends up in the bin.

Robbybobtail · 26/01/2021 15:34

Oh sorry, just saw you said with pasta - I wouldn’t have bread and pasta!

justanotherneighinparadise · 26/01/2021 15:34

Three.

EnglishRose1320 · 26/01/2021 15:34

2-4 depending on how hungry we are. It's only myself and ds2 that like garlic bread, sometimes we eat one between us, other times we only use half of one.

Sparklfairy · 26/01/2021 15:35

Can't believe Asda says one is 4 servings! Shock

LubaLuca · 26/01/2021 15:35

4, all greedy and adult-sized. I'm amazed that we're not average.

Hazelmazel · 26/01/2021 15:35

There are 5 of us, 1 garlic bread would do 4. If I do one there's not enough but with 2 there is loads left over.

NoSquirrels · 26/01/2021 15:35

Three. But really I’d be very happy to eat it all, so it’s only 3 because I can’t justify looking that greedy!

lobsteroll · 26/01/2021 15:35

As a side to a substantial meal I'd say 2 pieces each so one is probably fine for our family of 4. I'd definitely eat more if it was there though 😂

When do you have garlic bread if not with pasta? Thought that was the rule!

Spag Bol & garlic bread
Lasagna & garlic bread

Erm...run out of ideas now but don't think we ever just have garlic bread on its own!

EnglishRose1320 · 26/01/2021 15:36

The times 2 of us eat a whole one, is when we have a bit of left over pasta but not a whole dish and I need something to bulk it up.

SillyOldMummy · 26/01/2021 15:36

3 to 4 ( 2 young kids)

redcandlelight · 26/01/2021 15:37

never with pasta but 1 garlic bread would serve 2 in out house.
the teens would have one each if I would let them, but that's a different question

GiantKitten · 26/01/2021 15:37

1 for 2 people, 2 for 3-4 people (all adult)
DS2 would eat 2 on his own if not watched very carefully...

VettiyaIruken · 26/01/2021 15:37

Half a baguette each. At least.
