So I have just seen an advert for it and it reminded me how much I hate it. Jelly with fruit in it. Why? Why would you ruin jelly by putting fruit (that invariably goes soggy and mushy) in it? Just why? Same goes for yoghurt with fruity bits in it. Makes me feel sick just thinking about it. 😫

What foods do you feel have been ruined worldwide or by someone that you know?

Chocolate with any sort of additional extra. Especially nuts. Only caramel is acceptable.

Iggy Pork and Apple sausages are nice! Shock

Why would you spoil fruit by putting it anywhere near jelly? Even the thought of jelly makes my mouth go funny! Disgusting stuff, with Brussels sprouts a close second. Just yuk! Confused

(Though saying that I do like jelly sweets like wine gums etc, and I like jelly cubes before they're added to water. It's just the finished product that makes me boak)

I used to dip my toast in my tea when i was wee and i like the fruit in jelly pots (had one tonight watching paul o grady at battersea) Grin

Fruit shouldn't be cooked.

Butterscotch angel delight is the food of the gods.

StarsandSparkles · 01/09/2016 21:35

being i got oreos the other day to try at they were 😷

MouldyPeach · 01/09/2016 21:36

Cheddar cheese should never, ever, be eaten cold and unmelted.

DerekSprechenZeDick · 01/09/2016 21:37

Being Oreos are like eating chalk to me. I don't like them eithe r

purplestripysocks · 01/09/2016 21:37

I thought it was only me that couldn't stand fruit with meat or soggy bread. My tribe!

VanillaSugar · 01/09/2016 21:40

Fray Bentos Pies. In a tin.

I've never eaten one. I can't even bear to be in the same aisle.

ABloodyDifficultWoman · 01/09/2016 21:40

Peanut butter and marmite makes the most excellent sandwich. Also peanut butter and jam. Also peanut butter, honey and banana. Also peanut butter and bacon. Also peanut butter and cheese.

I'm not allowed peanut butter because I have no natural 'STOP' mechanism once I start! Grin

WiddlinDiddlin · 01/09/2016 21:41

'Naked' toast - ie, that bit where if you, like me, buy Warbies bloody rectangular sliced bread, a bit doesn't get toasted and is thus, naked, and just warm and not actually toast.

That bit needs to be cut off and given to the dog/fella/bin.

Wish they'd make their bread toaster sized, or someone would make toasters warburtons bread sized!

salsamad · 01/09/2016 21:41

The Sainsburys advert suggesting putting slices of fresh peach on pizza - yukky yuk
Peaches are lovely just as they are ....they are not to be eaten with melted cheese and tomato sauce!

blueturtle6 · 01/09/2016 21:50

I have to go shopping, i need butterscotch angel delight.

NeedsAsockamnesty · 01/09/2016 21:53

We need over sized bread. If we do not have big bread then we cannot use those deep fill toastie makers Mumsnet made us all buy last year

Pestilence13610 · 01/09/2016 21:57

Boogers nobody should ever eat brussel sprouts with jelly - ever

babybythesea · 01/09/2016 21:57

Salt in caramel. And the stuff is everywhere.
And in New Zealand, the horrors of the bakery where they throw coconut onto just about every sodding pastry in the shop. I love pastries, possibly a bit more than I love my children, especially if they have pecans or cinnamon in there somewhere. But you see something, it looks delicious, it calls you, it has a whisper of icing sugar floating across the top, you buy it and smuggle it out to eat in private joy, only to bite into it and discover that the icing sugar is in fact an imposter. It is coconut grinning spitefully up at you - now your pastry is inedible and your day is in tatters.
I'm not being melodramatic. It's just how it is.

Cantusethatname · 01/09/2016 22:02

i don't like that KitKat picture! That's upsetting. Obviously you break off a stick at a time and nibble the thick chocolate off the ends.

I don't like to see eggs touching baked beans. I wouldn't eat them, obviously, but don't like to see them either.

Onehellofaride · 01/09/2016 22:03

Derek I was hungover tired the other day and really wanted a cheesestring. Opened it and DH asked for a bite! I left the room to decide whether to LTB and ate two more while I thought about it Grin

PurplePidjin · 01/09/2016 22:04

My 3yo bites into KitKat bars without snapping the fingers apart.

I've resorted to never ever buying kitkats.

What have I bred 😭😭😭😭😭

DerekSprechenZeDick · 01/09/2016 22:05

one and purple leave them. It's too late now. You can change your own life's for the better.
