The chocolate covered strawberries were delish!

The M&S mini party food looks bloody disgusting! Who puts cubes of belly pork on cocktail sticks!!??

Tiff - I actually made a special trip to my local Iceland last year as I wanted to try the strawberries - they had sold out.
Needless to say I didnt hang about.

They apparently do choc covered melon as well, not too sure about those!

SalFresco · 05/12/2010 22:38

I'd never noticed these, but the Iceland "stuffing slab" I find very unsettling; I don't know why.

CybillLiberty · 05/12/2010 22:39

We always say they look like fannies too

Its like the old Fanny Craddock story

'If you follow this recipe, you could have doughnuts like Fanny's'

Some people I worked for have it and it is hilarious

Fibilou · 05/12/2010 23:04

[whispers] I have never been in an Iceland. We don't have any where I live, I don't think.

GoodnightNobody · 05/12/2010 23:07

interesting, majority of you coming at them from the fanjo angle...my dp called them 'party bellends.'

gemhandley · 05/12/2010 23:37

bibbitybobbitysantahat · 05/12/2010 23:44

I'm obviously deformed then cos my flange looks nothing like those.

[po faced]

Islandlady · 06/12/2010 04:45

I Missed out on the chocolate covered strawberries last year but made sure I got them this year - was disapointed, the chocolate covered orange segments are much nicer

OH was I supposed to wait until CHRISTMAS to eat them?? Xmas Grin

kreecherlivesupstairs · 06/12/2010 08:24

We don't have an iceland, but we are coming to England for Christmas. I am going to go and get me a plate of cunts.

gemmummy · 06/12/2010 08:27

plate of cunts. bloody brilliant.

PeasPlease · 06/12/2010 08:49

All the food on that page is the same orangey-brown colour. How crap would that look laid out on your table at Xmas? Come try my brown buffet everyone!

Who says fanjos? I have never heard this term before. Seriously, where are you all from.?

theyoungvisiter · 06/12/2010 20:57

tis a mumsnet term. Like norks.

We are from the internet!

SpotSplatterSplash · 06/12/2010 21:50

Norks was used on Casualty last Saturday.

Must be a Casualty scriptwriter here somewhere, or maybe it has filtered through to common usage?

Loving the plate of fanjos, but eww at the just given birth ones, couldn't buy them after that Grin

dearprudence · 06/12/2010 22:01

ABitBatty - high five to your DP. Laughed so hard at 'plate of cunts'. Xmas Grin

Littlewoodsmuvvah · 21/11/2011 13:31

I know this is an old thread, I searched it out specially as I just watched the latest ad and it bought memories flooding back!

Following on from last year's plate of fanjos, the prawn cocktail in the new ad looks like a shot glass of sperm!
