Tell me some things you buy in your weekly shop that I might not

[IHeartKingThistle]

Just thinking of all the thousands of things in the supermarket, and I end up chucking the same things in my online shop every week just out of habit. So there must be things other people chuck in that I never do! I promise to add some of them to my shop this week and try them!

I went off gecko tongues a while back but then discovered owl's eyebrows. Yum!

I shop that way too. But the thread was asking for specifics, not generic things ... Just seemed like you were having a little dig.

No it’s a freezer shop, but a bit like the online sites like discount Dragon-so staples but then stuff that’s end of lines, new stuff that is being tried out, and just absolute bargains, like the President butter at 25p a pack I once scored.

In Morrison’s freezer aisle they do big bags of puréed ginger, garlic or chilli. It’s all in cubes, so just Chuck it in your cooking. And it’s cheap.

The company is "Dunn's River".

the shop is in New Cross it’s one of the little corner shops you can buy almost anything from frozen peas to fancy paper doilies and to Jam Mallows ☺️

Frozen avocado so I don't has to play ripe/mouldy with the little feckers

Update. Tesco 4 pack of Bon Maman rhubarb yoghurts purchased this very afternoon from Tesco! I've sampled one and yes exactly what I've been missing. Delicious and I shall stock up so I never run out 🤪🥳

Frozen parathas. Soooo good.
Soup dumplings
Honey-roast chipolata
Dukkah (so good as a dip with olive oil) if we have run out
Itsu flat noodles. I am addicted.

Wholemeal flour, and milled chia/flax seeds for my homemade brown bread.

Reduced or nearly out of date fresh full fat cream, for butter making (occasionally)

In date fresh cream and lemonade for making three ingredient scones.

Vanilla zero cal coffee syrup

White chocolate mousse from Aldi. OMG

Frozen berries

Skinless and boneless tinned salmon.

Vintage cheddar

San Pellegrino lemon and mint cans

Oh, so pleased you like them. They’re my favourite. ❤️

Rose Harissa to have with scrambled eggs

Already a regular in my basket. Delicious and just realised that relatively wholesome yesterday.

Where do you get the frozen pearl onions? I've been looking for them for ages!

Not weekly, but I’m having a phase of buying tinned evaporated milk.

Doritos
A box of choc ices
Jar of Nutella (to eat with a spoon)

@AtleastitsnotMonday I got them with my Ocado shopping delivery

You can make your own versions of these really easily! And you will reap the benefits (and save money).

The Bonne Maman big pots are on offer in Waitrose at the moment. Try the violet fig 😋

Thank you I might look into this in future.

@hereismydog have you tried dried golden berries? - more fibre than prunes, always worked a treat after my 3 Csections 😊 p.s congratulations on your new arrival!

Sesame snaps....love 'em!

Vegeta. It's a seasoning from the Polish section in Tesco and you can add it to soups and stews and things but I love it in mashed potato.

Also the Lowicz syrups, also from Tesco's Polish section. They make great cocktails, as well as being very nice drunk like cordial!

Fresh pomegranate seeds.
