He says it is common, and lots of people eat a full packet at once.

Do you, or could you, or would you like to?

No, no and no.

situatedknowledge · 13/05/2016 19:45

No.

Buggers · 13/05/2016 19:45

Probably not a whole packet in one go unless it was quite small but I easily eat half the pack in one goBlush

AlwaysDancing1234 · 13/05/2016 19:45

Rarely - only Jaffa cakes mind you.

ChessieFL · 13/05/2016 19:46

No, no, and no

Lovelongweekends · 13/05/2016 19:46

Only Jaffa cakes (do they count as biscuits?) couldn't manage a full pack of any other type!

No and I never have.
I can't see that I ever would either

twirlypoo · 13/05/2016 19:46

It has been known on occasion in the past, but it's rare! What's the big deal? Who is 'he'?

ElectroStallion · 13/05/2016 19:47

N o.
DH does thoughHmm
He knows it's greedy and unreasonable.

twirlypoo · 13/05/2016 19:47

Those choc chip cookie packets only have about 8 biscuits in! Easy done over the course of watching a film!

NeedACleverNN · 13/05/2016 19:47

I have done yes

Chocolate fingers. I have also eaten 4 packets of crisps in one go.

Am I ashamed? Not one bit

Hurryhurryhurry · 13/05/2016 19:48

Yes, easily. Biscuits are my vice! Usually fig rolls or custard creams

Junosmum · 13/05/2016 19:48

I can, and if it wouldn't make me even fatter, I would. Occasionally I do. I really really try not to. I think it's greedy and not 'what normal people do' or what people with a healthy attitude to food do.

DH will eat a whole packet in one sitting without thinking.

We don't have biscuits in the house. (Or anything else of that nature due to the above).

readingrainbow · 13/05/2016 19:48

Only oreos and never again. One is never enough....

GibbousHologram · 13/05/2016 19:48

Yes yes and yes.

In fact, it's the only way I eat biscuits.

So I mostly don't buy them.

EndoplasmicReticulum · 13/05/2016 19:48

No, probably couldn't. Husband could and does if it's Jaffa cakes.

LadyAntonella · 13/05/2016 19:48

I don't but I could... At uni I knew a quite buff looking guy who did it all the time. I don't think it would be terribly good for you though.

originalmavis · 13/05/2016 19:48

Who says? Common as in 'everyday' or as in waynetta slob?

Before my blood sugars went mad, I could finish pack of m+s Jaffa cakes quite happily.

PatriciaHolm · 13/05/2016 19:48

Never, no. 1 or 2 max.

RoganJosh · 13/05/2016 19:48

No.
Quick Google finds that there are nearly 1000 calories in a 200g pack of custard creams. So it would need to be instead of a whole meal I suppose.

Hurryhurryhurry · 13/05/2016 19:48

I was wondering who 'he' is too

bigboypants · 13/05/2016 19:48

I have done. Blush It's not normal though. I don't do it anymore and now stop at 2.

I did have a blip when I was trying to stop the habit and ate loads in one sitting, ended up with a massive headache, effects of the all the sugar that, embarrassingly, my body had probably gotten used to and that's why I hadn't had the headaches previously.

isseywithcats · 13/05/2016 19:49

jammie dodgers no problem a packet of chocolate digestives no way

Puppymouse · 13/05/2016 19:49

Only Jaffa cakes. But they aren't biscuits.
