FORTY EIGHT? Shock

don't you feel sick? They're really sickly little buggers, creme eggs.

PickledInAPearTree · 10/02/2013 19:38

If anyone has any if the evil little suckers I'm happy to destroy them for you.

benbobaggins · 10/02/2013 19:39

I bought them from the cash and carry, they were on special offer at £8.99

Don't you go putting a stick up your arse though op god knows what would happen!

usualsuspect · 10/02/2013 19:39

They are smaller than they used to be though Hmm

OP, ignore the armchair DRs on here.

HecateWhoopass · 10/02/2013 19:39

Oh, that wasn't meant in a 'you have an ed' way, btw. Just genuinely surprised you're not feeling queasy. I find creme eggs really sickly.

I could easily pack away 48 bounties though. Grin

That is a lot. I thought you meant the mini ones. But normal size. It's a wonder you're not ill. I think I once ate three in a day.

yaimee · 10/02/2013 19:40

Also, those who are 'repulsed' should probably have a look at their own relationships with food.

EnjoyResponsibly · 10/02/2013 19:40

Wow!

Personally I can't stand them, too sickly, but if you'd said Peppermint creams I could have gotten alongside.

Did you buy a giant box just for you or were they Easter gifts oops Grin?

PickledInAPearTree · 10/02/2013 19:41

If you get a good technique going you can get one down whole.

benbobaggins · 10/02/2013 19:41

there's always time for a cheeky egg, I'm studying so can eat them whilst reading

48? Have you thought about a uk version of woman v food? Step away from th fridge Grin

RightsaidFreud · 10/02/2013 19:41

Sorry, but that's gross. Eating 48 of anything is just wrong, but 48 sickly sweet creme eggs? Ew.

squeakytoy · 10/02/2013 19:42

If you are on a "fasting" way of eating, then clearly there are issues with your diet. It is not normal to skip days of eating and it is not healthy for your body.

usualsuspect · 10/02/2013 19:43

A whole one in your gob at once.Pickled?

You must have a big mouth.

EnjoyResponsibly · 10/02/2013 19:43

I really, really wanted the hollow Easter egg size ones to be actual Creme Eggs. Can you imagine biting the top off one of those feckers in your fridge Grin

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 10/02/2013 19:43

Wow! My god, I think you may trump me in the chocolate eating stakes and I thought I was the biggest choccie scoffer aroundGrin

Don't feel bad, if you generally eat healthily, chalk it up to experience and move on.

It is a lot though! I used to manage 3-4 in be go and then I'd start to feel sick after an hour. I can't stomach them anymore, they are too sweet and sickly.

benbobaggins · 10/02/2013 19:44

squeaky please read up on the 5:2 way of eating and you'll understand it more and not toss eating disorder around willy nilly

OP posts:
PickledInAPearTree · 10/02/2013 19:44

Usual - yep! Grin

Think snake eating mouse.

God dammit this has made me want a few now.

SchroSawMargeryDaw · 10/02/2013 19:45

Another one who thought you were going to say a Findus lasagne. :o

Seriously though, that is wayyyy too much sugar, you're going to make yourself ill.

Possibly don't listen to the pregnant woman with a craving for chocolate though

EnjoyResponsibly · 10/02/2013 19:45

OP is this you?

benbobaggins · 10/02/2013 19:45

enjoy with you on that one, I was part of the Facebook campaign to do a giant one Grin

FFS the OP has already explained that this is not her usual weekend...if you are repulsed or horrified by this thread then as someone said earlier, I'd look at your own relationship with food. It's not a case of food being bad/good...it's food...48 of one particular thing might bag you up, give you spots, give you the shits (in my case) or pile on the weight but it's still only food. Demonising a piece of bloody confectionery is just silly...

PickledInAPearTree · 10/02/2013 19:46

I know loads of people doing the 5:2 thingy and they most certainly do NOT have eating disorders.

Whether you think it's a load of old bunkum or not that's a bit if an extreme viewpoint.
