Mini Cheddars

Dry-roasted peanuts

Pringles

Because they are outrageously tasty, moreish and not that healthy (except for being good for the soul).

Nutella...I allow myself one jar a year (eaten off a spoon in approx 30 seconds!)

NarcyCow · 13/08/2016 20:03

Tunnock's teacakes are my downfall along with every other chocolate product in the world. DH bought a 10 pack today, the bastard.

thenightsky · 13/08/2016 20:06

these addictive bastards

PinkyPlumet · 13/08/2016 20:06

yum yums

yy to Mini Cheddars. I can't be within 50ft of them, I'm like the Cookie Monster Shock

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 13/08/2016 20:07

There really ought to be a helpline for dealing with these delicious little cheesy fuckers... :(

needanewjob · 13/08/2016 20:08

Walkers salt and vinegar crisps
Maltesers
Oh Christ I need to go eat something bad now

dontpokethebear · 13/08/2016 20:08

Tesco sweet chilli coated peanuts. The best bit is licking your fingers after eating all of them a few.

tanfield90 · 13/08/2016 20:11

I made light work of half a tube of sour cream and onion Pringles tonight before dinner. Then Miss Discipline took over and I resealed them. I blame Morrison's for selling them at half price this week. Not my fault at all.

Just ordered the chocolate fingers from Amazon Pantry. Arriving Monday. Fingers crossed.

I neeeed some Pringles. Like now. A whole dirty fucking tube of them (drools)

TwoLittleBlooms · 13/08/2016 20:15

Custard creams, I can't just dunk one in my coffee...oh no, I have to consume the whole packet, every bloody time (and just to make it even worse, half the time I don't even remember eating them, it is like I just hoover them up)!

Whathaveilost · 13/08/2016 20:16

and not that healthy (except for being good for the soul)
If they are good for the soul they are good for you therefore they shouldn't be banned!

cherryplumbanana · 13/08/2016 20:19

could we please go back to those?

hose giant marshmallows that you microwave for thirty seconds and they inflate to five times their size in soft molten marshmallow-goo

Where can I find them, I am not starting my diet until Monday.

Food to be banned: peanut butter M&M, now stocked in my local supermarket.

YvaineStormhold · 13/08/2016 20:21

M & S Belgian chocolate peanuts. I have to eat them by the fistful. Fuck my life, they hit a particular part of my brain that sends me nasty. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

dizzyfeck · 13/08/2016 20:23

This evil thread should be banned!

I want it all. But I will add pickled onion monster munch, hobnobs and chocolate caramel digestives.

YvaineStormhold · 13/08/2016 20:23

Bourbon Creams. They're salty, slightly stale tasting, fake chocolate biscuits. No matter. I eat one, and the next thing I know, I'm coming round from some sort of coma, covered in crumbs and surrounded by empty packets.

MsKite · 13/08/2016 20:27

Could we just ban sugar please? That would REALLY improve my life!

GrouchyKiwi · 13/08/2016 20:29

That's it, Yvaine. I am never stepping foot in M&S Food again. I am eating several bags of Sainsbury's chocolate peanuts a week (breastfeeding...) but if I'd have to eat several bags of Belgian chocolate ones per day.

Owlytellsmesecrets · 13/08/2016 20:31

Pringles .... My trick is to just lick the flavour off the bastards and then re-stack. When soggy they smell and look disgusting ... Half the calories half the fat but blood pressure through the roof.

I really really struggle with dates, the big icky sticky ones fully of sugary goodness ... They are a fruit ???? Yep a fruit ... Not bad for you at all .... DO NOT GOOGLE !

JulesJules · 13/08/2016 20:33

I did not know that's what those giant marshmallows were for! Now I need some NOW

ednabuckett · 13/08/2016 20:34

Pork scratchings. I bloody love the heart attack inducing buggers.

TheCrumpettyTree · 13/08/2016 20:34

Walkers sensations chicken and thyme flavour crisps. I could eat bag fulls. And I don't even like normal chicken flavour crisps.
