I'm in the PMS zone and so just currently craving carp to eat. Right now I would love a Greggs chicken and bacon baguette, some salt n vinegar crisps (baked for preference) some sort of disgustingly gooey fudge cake and a bottle of sprite.

What's yours?

Just sitting down to the football after tea so I’d love a cup of tea, milk no sugar, and 3 Jaffa cakes please

A margarita pizza on a thin crispy sourdough base , cheese cooked until golden brown.
A big gin glass of ice cold blood orange sanpellegrino before they altered it 😡with sliced orange and lots of ice .
Followed by a very tart lemony desert of some kind.

A massive ribeye steak as blue as it's possible to have it, garlic mash, a daiquiri, and roughly a kilo of baklava.

I've changed my order. Right now I'd like 6 xiao long bao, breakfast noodles and a nai wong bao for dessert. Alternatively, I'd like 6 Yangs shrimp dumplings.

With a diet coke.

A red Bounty, scones, jam and clotted cream or some chicken satay and rice from the local noodle bar.

Ooh I love a red Bounty - do they still do them?

A double Bernard Matthews Turkey Steaks (the frozen 4pk that disappeared in favour of more processed options) burger with cheese followed by a broken up Rowntree's secret in white vanilla ice cream with Bird's Caramel Ice Magic on top.

Ooh I loved these. We had them with beans and chips before Guides most weeks.

Freshly baked scones, still warm. Just with the jam (I don’t eat clotted cream). Delicious.

No butter?!

HurdyGurdy19 · 14/07/2026 21:49

I would love a McDonalds burger and fries.

But only the ones that appear in their adverts. Not the vile concoctions that you actually get served in their restaurants.

I can't remember when I last had a Maccies. Must be at least five years.

But every now and then, usually when I've been near a restaurant, like this evening, the aroma is so enticing, I really really fancy one.

But I don't want to experience the bitter disappointment that I get every time I have one.

“ Carp” made me smile OP - had visions of you going down to the pond!

Wiglio · 14/07/2026 21:53

Great question OP, I’d like gazpacho

MarmaladeSandwich7 · 14/07/2026 21:54

I’m really full after 3 sausages, chips & bread & butter so I’d have something I can munch for a midnight snack. Would love a slice of my DM’s streuselkuchen which is a lovely dense yet moist cake with crunchy brown sugar ontop. Makes me sad because she has Parkinson’s with dementia & can’t bake anymore 😢

bronnibro · 14/07/2026 21:57

Id have right now a cold icy coke full fat, perfect Herby parsley buttery roasted new potatoes with a lovely bit of crispy but rare lamb, baby carrots and borrocli, a nice gravy, and then a cheesecake, thanks

NeverDropYourMooncup · 14/07/2026 22:01

A huge bento of prawn and vegetable tempura, prawn gyoza, soba noodles, loads of sauce, a fresh strawberry daifuku and three ice cold asahi beers. All magically gluten (and calorie) free.

I was going to say my mum’s stew (Irish stew) with brown sauce but then saw this & think this tops it as it’s exactly how I like it (with no butter or clotted cream, just jam)

mondaytosunday · 14/07/2026 22:02

Oooo a Cabot’s Ice cream mocha almond Sundae with hot fudge and marshmallow and nuts.

Sacredhare · 14/07/2026 22:04

A really good lemon meringue pie.

Sushi- specifically a mix of salmon and tuna sashimi, maki and nigiri.

I'm a bit obsessed at the moment!!

I want this now. Was fine drinking iced water and snacking on fennel bread sticks until I read this.

PrimeSeason · 14/07/2026 22:09

Chocolate ice cream - YUM

mellongoose · 14/07/2026 22:09

A giant Yorkshire pudding filled with onion gravy.

No, I’m a fussy eater. I don’t like cream, cheese, butter, etc. unless it happens to be baked into a lovely scone 😋

NeedSleepNowPls · 14/07/2026 22:16

If we're including discontinued things, Thorntons used to sell soft biscuity/chocolate things that were incredible and I would love some of them now

Also m&s cappuccino chocolate bars, and some crispy mozzarella sticks with tomato sauce (from a restaurant, not ketchup)

Tarkan · 14/07/2026 22:17

I wouldn’t say no to a macaroni pie and a glass of Pinot tbh.

keepswimming38 · 14/07/2026 22:18

A punnet of cherries ( from Spain, not crappy uk ones)!
