A niche item or food you could never give up.

[BedZeppelin]

Hi all, first ever post so please be kind!

Currently on mat leave and was enjoying some chocolate raisins during a contact nap last night (after DS jabs). I hardly ever have them (choccy raisins) but my God I find them addictive, I could never give them up.

So I am curious. What niche things could you never give up, things you don't have or use everyday but you would be really put out or upset If you could never have/use them again?

Chai Latte! Especially at 3am (joys of peri-menopausal insomnia!)

I so wish I could dance the Northern Soul Way.

Exactly the same as my list!
though diffierent order: coffee, travel, yogurt
and I’ll add my Uniqlo bag.

Roll-mops are obvious different from Norwegian sursild which may not be to your taste as they are sweeter and less acidic but if you do also like that sort, the ones Waitrose do (Elsinor) which are from Denmark are almost as good as homemade.

So many things. Probably handbags and Barry's Tea if I had to choose.

A can of cream soda in the car on the way home from work . Bliss .

I see your 3am chai latte and raise you a 4am redbush tea, fellow perimenosomniac! 😂

Lucozade original zero

They have them in London in various places including the It’s Bagels in Primrose Hill

And I’ve just checked and they have them in Sainsbury’s and Ocado too!

Would you mind sharing where you buy the herring? I grew up eating sour tasting roll mops in Germany and I've missed them so much! The ones here are far too sweet for me.

@Allihavetodoisdream haha, thank you! I'll try and check them out. I get them delivered by one of brick lane ones, but they only do plain. Their salt beef is fantastic though.

But my god, getting the bastard things open! (The vaseline tubs, obviously).

I'm not sure you can claim cheese as a niche thing, Sparkles. It's basically the foundation of almost every good meal. Practically its own food group.

(my username is pretty accurate)

Nivea blue tubs and earl grey tea :)

Biscoff spread
Hip chocolate
Peanut butter
Coffee

Coconut water 😂

Pickled herring. I buy it imported from Sweden, not the rollmop rubbish they have here.

Pickled herring is one of the most revolting things I've ever tasted, and I'll eat almost anything! We had it on holidat in Denmark and I swear I could taste it for about a week afterwards!

@Turophilic agreed still something I couldn't live without 🤣

ScandiKitchen - my fave is the Abbas dillsill

Kimchi and glycolic acid for my face. Benefit eyebrow pencils.

Ooh mine is Nip+Fab glycolic serum. But I didn't love the scrub!

Pip and Nut sweet and salty peanut butter
wasabi peas
orange squash
cannales

Loose leaf Darjeeling tea from Fortnum and Mason

Capers, olives and cornichons.
