Until you lose feeling in your tongue 😂

Haha. It's worth it!

Perhaps you should all consider acquiring a Labrador or two. They will happily assist in demolishing your snack foods.

StrawberrySanta · 11/10/2021 20:22

Halloumi Blush, original pringles, giant buttons. I rarely buy them for this reason

Interested in this thread?

I forgot these. If you like sweet and salty flavours, don't buy them Grin
I'm sure a pack is a single serving

A litre of Ben and Jerry’s in one sitting. I know I can do it, easily. Which is why I don’t buy it anymore.

Grapes
I am not safe around grapes.

I can eat a punnet (or two) without thinking about it - in fairness I am the same with a family sized bag of Revels.

I've just googled Cornish cruncher cheese biscuits and I need them in my life Blush

Crumbelina · 12/10/2021 03:52

Marmite cashew nuts. Blush

Cookerhood · 13/10/2021 14:35

Now I love marmite, and I love cashew nuts but I thought the combination was awful. Maybe I should try them again...

leavesthataregreen · 13/10/2021 23:12

Matchstick crisps. I've just discovered. Blush Bought a pack for a long journey and kept at them, then realised the bag was 150g in weight and I must have had at least 100g. That's like eating four packets of crisps!

chitchatchatter · 13/10/2021 23:44

Milk chocolate digestives, I will scoff the whole packet. And Tunnocks Tea Cakes, ditto.

I just won’t have them in the house as I have zero will power.

HotelRoomforOne · 14/10/2021 05:05

What is it about Crunchy Nut cornflakes!! Designed by some evil genius.Could never, ever buy them again.
As for alcohol, I had to give it uo completely a year ago. No restraint.
And then all my most favourite foods, I can never have them in the house and this makes me sad. I just won't stop eating until the following are all gone:

Halva
Salt and pepper cashews
Marzipan/ stollen
Speckuloos
Panda licorice mix
Salt and vinegar crisps
Cottage cheese with kettle salt and pepper crackers
Spanish lemon stuffed olives
Dark chocolate coated ginger
Chocolate Almonds

Maybe at Christmas I'll buy them all, but it'll have to be the last day before Christmas, or there's no chance anyyhing will last. A delicate balancing act!!

cushioncovers · 14/10/2021 05:14

Easter biscuits. Any soft baked ones not the hard crunchy ones. I cannot leave them alone. I'm sure there's something in them that's addictive.

Squirrelblanket · 14/10/2021 07:24

Multi packs of Frazzles or Ringos.

cricketmum84 · 14/10/2021 07:38

Ben and Jerry's cookie dough ice cream
Fresh doughnuts
Fresh cookies (in the brown bags)
