Just NO.

AIBU?

Middle aged male visitor is sitting there right now, with DH in the kitchen. His DD I think has a pack of the things (I hate them anyway but kids I can forgive)

And he's sucking one.

He's making little "Shlep" noises when he takes it out again.

I'm so grossed out right now. This is a big grown man of 47.

Chippie,

Can't say I've ever seen triangular ones, either!

Zuzu
They're delicious...!

The best. And the filling... Nothing comes close to it. Slathered in cinnamon and sugar.
This and onion pie, probably my favourite baked goods...

YANBU about anyone of any age making slurpy noises when they eat.

As for what they eat - YABUU.

I prefer lollipops to ordinary sweets b cause I can take my time over them and take them out if they're too sweet for me. I like ice-cream cornets and ice-lollies, too.

As I'm the far side of 50, I'm clearly in my second childhood!

Zulu, with a proper English jammy donut? Nobody is ever BU to try that challenge!

Gumdrops,

Indeed. And I'm proud to say I've managed it successfully!

I had an ice lolly last night and thought of this thread. I admit that I did do a bit of slurpy licking just because I could.
And I always try and eat jam donuts without licking my lips. I often manage it. And now I want one....

My husband loves his lollies.

I love a dippy egg with soldiers.

I'm going to take a couple of lollipops into the cinema next time I go, to suck on once I've finished annoying the killjoys with my popcorn.

Hope to see lots of deathstares.
