I bought some this morning as it is on offer in tesco.

I've eaten half a jar of it already Blush

And then I looked at the calorie content Shock Shock

I've hidden the jar so DH won't know how much I have eaten Blush

For the record it tasted best with vanilla ice cream...

I bought it

formerbabe · 09/04/2014 13:35

Whoops!

I bought it once...I was uncontrollable!

BaronVonShush · 09/04/2014 13:37

It's got crack in it or something. Completely addictive!

Although does look a teeny bit like the content of ds2's nappy. Maybe I should concentrate on that next time I dive in.

I don't like it - tastes like regurgitated biscuit to me.

unicornpoop · 09/04/2014 13:39

ruby that's what I always think of when I look at it....masticated biscuits. Although I may try to get past the gag reflex and try it anyway....just out of curiosity Grin

I bought this yesterday!! Was embarassingly over excited when I saw it and thought about starting a thread Blush. Lush on toast but vanilla ice cream you say....

Mygoldfishrocks · 09/04/2014 13:40

it's.not nice. unless you like the taste of creamed stale biscuits

Merrylegs · 09/04/2014 13:41

Crunchy or smooth?

I've only tried the smooth but in the interests of comparative research I feel I really ought to try the crunchy.

And actually perhaps get the smooth as well just to be absolutely sure.

What a chore.

WheresRyder · 09/04/2014 13:42

its disgusting. I have an unopened jar of the crunchy as I had the smooth spread thinly on toast and it made me vomit it was soo sweet and sickly. Shame as I love the lotus biscuits.

Joules68 · 09/04/2014 13:42

How much sugar!?

squoosh · 09/04/2014 13:44

I think it's rank muck.

sheriffofnottingham · 09/04/2014 13:46

the crunchy is better. When I'm decorating DP brings me cups of tea and a desert spoon covered in biscuit spread. I love him so much

RustyParker · 09/04/2014 13:48

Crunchy is definitely the way to go!

Sheriff your DP is a keeper Grin

You are being very unreasonable to care about your husband knowing what you have and haven't eaten.

NoMoreMarbles · 09/04/2014 14:10

They had it in our Tesco yesterday. Alongside Nutella & peanut butter :)

HighwayRat · 09/04/2014 15:07

Ive literally JUST started a thread in chat about this. I have an unopened jar of crunchy on the coffee table and a spoon. I'm too nervous to try it...

Aeroflotgirl · 09/04/2014 15:07

It's a spread that tastes like lotus biscuits. Think of tge biscuits you get with your tea/coffee on Areoplanes, that's the taste. I like lotus biscuits but not the spread.

I've just had two teaspoons. Can't decide what it would be best with.

PurplePunkPrincess · 09/04/2014 15:09

It's beautiful! I like it spread thickly on chocolate digestives :)

It is quite sweet and I usually have to drink some milk afterwards!

HomeIsWhereTheHeartIs · 09/04/2014 15:12

Damn I've already been to tesco and I forgot to look for it. Sounds like its worth making a second visit for.

HighwayRat · 09/04/2014 15:14

OH MY GOD just popped it open, and had a small spoonful. I have angels dancing in my mouth!!!!
