Crisps - specifically the chilli ones or Kettle black pepper! Also crumbly lancashire.

Cadbury's chocolate fingers. Gone in minutes.

mumwon · 10/10/2021 20:58

Nuts & chocolate of any type ...
& the nuts disagree with me but I can't resist them (& spend the next few days thinking I won't do that again -until the next time Grin)

Pate. Can easily eat half a loaf, toasted with pate in one sitting.

Packs of mini pork pies.

Seaweasel · 10/10/2021 21:00

Pie D'Angloys cheese and Prosecco. Because I am a very classy glutton. Can eat a whole round with a whole bottle and feel thoroughly horrible the next day.

WeatherwaxOn · 10/10/2021 21:01

Manomasa crisps.
Salsa with tortilla chips.
Either of those will never make it back to storage if they're opened anywhere near me.

Seaweasel · 10/10/2021 21:01

Also Co-op own brand posh salt and vinegar big pack crisps. Can't buy those anymore either.

MegaClutterSlut · 10/10/2021 21:02

I have no self control when it comes to cadburys chocolate fingers, only the milk choc ones. Also maltesers

NetballHoop · 10/10/2021 21:02

My name is NetballHoop and I can not eat just one pistochio.

If I eat one, I will eat them all.

My mouth will swell from the salty lovelyness but that won't stop me.
My fingernails will split as I try to open nuts that should best be left alone, but I can't help myself.
Forget chocolate or sweets, I can try them and walk away, but pistchios are my weak point. I can't buy them though I really want them.

tiddlysquat · 10/10/2021 21:03

Most crisps but especially frazzles. Thanks OP I've got covid and youve cheered me up as I've just added some to my next online delivery Smile

Inclinedtochatter · 10/10/2021 21:04

Cocoa pops - I could easily demolish a full box in one sitting.
Haribo cherry sweets both normal and sour.

SW1amp · 10/10/2021 21:04

Terry’s chocolate orange

I would eat the whole think quicker than an actual orange

NotMyCat · 10/10/2021 21:06

Pringles

Dolly Mixture - I feel sick as I've just finished a big bag I bought on Friday.

Chocolate Florentine biscuits from M&S

Fudge's chocolate dipped flapjacks

FreeBritnee · 10/10/2021 21:11

In the past - everything
Nowadays bloody pies. Honestly I cook a pie for DP and he’ll have half and supposedly the other half for lunch. But my god I cannot leave the pastry alone. I have to shut it in a Tupperware box as soon as I can otherwise I will scoff the other half as soon as I look at it.

I swear I could pick up a whole pie and eat it all if I didn’t have a weight problem. It’s like crack to me.

Knittedfairies · 10/10/2021 21:11

Pringles
Vegetable crisps
Wensleydale cheese

mumwon · 10/10/2021 21:12

Wasabi nuts - that's like horseradish flavour? I love horseradish the stronger the better - so combined with nuts? That's a week of indigestion & tummy ache - but I have no self control ...
Ah me - I am weak!

Giant wotsits gone in seconds

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 10/10/2021 21:17

Nutella - I only buy the smallest jar for visiting Gdcs’ Nutella pancakes. I invariably eat whatever is left with a spoon.

Garibaldi (squashed fly) biscuits - I can easily scoff the lot in one sitting.

sqirrelfriends · 10/10/2021 21:18

Haribo and Jaffa cakes. Neither can be in the house, and never last long if they are.

RaskolnikovsGarret · 10/10/2021 21:18

Oreos definitely

Thelnebriati · 10/10/2021 21:19

Le Roule garlic and herb. Accept no substitutes!
