Very pleased that I've managed to keep to my no chocolate over lent rule (so far!) DP said I have to have an extra two day wait for an egg since I had some vanilla vienetta (with shit barley chocolate bits) that mil bought round. It was crap anyway!

Is he bu?

Angry @ nasty chocolate with holding DP.

The necessity of keeping MIL happy and eating it overrules whatever was in it.

ergh theres no way viennetta is real chocolate its vile yanbu to think it isnt, horrid whipped cream stuff that would not pass the tag ice cream and horrid pretend chocolate flavoured layers

diddl · 19/03/2013 14:02

No-it's def "fake" chocolate!

Oh my god I used to love the mint vienettas! Did you used to get them with a KFC meal or something? I havent eaten KFC for about 15 years!! That is how long ago I had a vienetta!

Erm OP, I am firmly on the side of your DH. Sorry!

Before I even opened this thread I guessed this would be linked to giving up chocolate for Lent. I'm afraid you shouldn't have eaten it and DP is right to withold the chocolate an additional two days.

Yours, having given up biscuits for Lent and having just scoffed a large bowl of treacle pudding in the canteen at lunch to make up for lack of coffee break biscuit.

Vienetta isn't even real icecream! Hate it!

StuntGirl · 19/03/2013 16:05

I too have given up chocolate and that includes vienetta, hot chocolate and the iced doughnut with a few chocolate sprinkles on. YABU, sorry!

Although where had the 2 day extra thing come from?

Pandemoniaa · 19/03/2013 16:09

If it has chocolate on it then I'm sorry but it is chocolate. Not that I'd tolerate another adult "witholding" chocolate anyway. You are an adult, not a naughty child.

Oh, and an extra two days is nonsense. Lent is Lent. You can't extend it just because you broke your Lenten resolutions.

Isn't it strictly chocolate 'flavoured' rather than real actual bona fide chocolate?

did MIL serve it on a Sunday?

Lent is 40 days and 40 nights if you exclude the Sundays (and assume the last day is Easter Saturday).

Some people exclude all the lent Sundays from their fast

TiggyD · 19/03/2013 19:23

It's still chocolate. Satan defeated you.

Snazzynewyear · 19/03/2013 19:25

Who made your DP the Lent police? Buy your own egg.

noyouhavehadawee · 19/03/2013 19:28

You have broke lent - the only way to redeem yourself is to send all your easter eggs to me and i will have a word with the devil and see if i can sort it for you.

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 19/03/2013 19:32

I used to love Viennetta. I want be now!

It's not real chocolate,or real ice cream. Still used to taste bloody lovely though, I'm sure it wouldn't taste as good nowConfused

Doyouthinktheysaurus · 19/03/2013 19:33

One, not be

PurplePidjin · 19/03/2013 19:43

Let's put it this way - chocolate (caffeine) gives my bf 4mo tummy ache. I wouldn't risk eating vienetta.
