Well, Iceland can fuck off. Fucking asshats that they are.

[HoneyDragon]

It appears they are not doing their white chocolate and strawberry Christmas trees this year. Only the stupid salted caramel and milk chocolate ones.

They were the entire point of December.

They have RUINED my Christmas

[Puzzledandpissedoff]

Ah - thanks for that, Felicity; looks like I'll have to get some luxury ones instead (though like you I much prefer the filling to the pastry, so might have to revisit this )

[FelicityLemon]

Puzzled they are referring to the luxury ones which are nice, but personally I prefer the deep fill ones as they have a better mince to pastry ratio. The pastry I see as a mere vehicle for the filling

[SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius]

You are right, @AMenDclaredWomenTheirInferior - Tesco are bastards for discontinuing the rhubarb and custard ice creams - even though it has helped my diet.

They have also stopped stocking aorkney smoked cheddar, which I love. Hrumph.

[Puzzledandpissedoff]

Speaking of Iceland ... there was something said about their mince pies getting the best reviews, but please does anyone know if that was referring to their luxury version, or the ordinary ones?

[AsMenDclaredWomenTheirInferior]

This summer Tesco's introduced two new ice creams in their selection.
One was called rhubarb and custard, the other was called a Knickerbocker glory and I thought they were both wonderful.
Then in Tesco's wisdom and without any warning Tesco's a few weeks ago decided to remov them from their shelves, never to be seen again presumably?
What utter rotten Bastards Tesco's are.!

[FelicityLemon]

The last two times I went into Iceland they had not got any of their cauliflower rice. I had to make do with the broccoli one which is nowhere near as nice.
On the upside the lemon tarts are stellar

[lynmilne65]

carrots in bread sauce? Nooooooooo

[lynmilne65]

ginger, I'll have a male ( please)

[Christinayangstwistedsista]

I think your right re a conspiracy theory, how else can we explain the disappearance of the Fry's Five Centre

Christmas 2017 will be a true disappointment. Baby Jesus died so we could have the right lollies and chipolatas and Iceland have ruined it! I bet they're owned by the Illuminati.

[Christinayangstwistedsista]

I don't think there will be much joy this Christmas, Iceland has saw to that

[HoneyDragon]

It was, then Iceland took my Ice lollies and now it’s a bleak midwinter.

[RukshanaR]

Are you guys for real? It's just food, why all the commotion? I thought xmas was a time for happiness and friendship and joy etc etc.

[Puzzledandpissedoff]

Christina Some say this is a pretty exact copy: www.scottishretrosweets.com/sweets/krakatoa-creamola-foam/

There was some talk about the original recipe being lost, and an old tin opened and analysed to produce it ...

[calzone]

Christina,.....sadly they're rank.

[Christinayangstwistedsista]

I recently discovered that Crispy Pancakes are still alive

[Christinayangstwistedsista]

Cremola foam.....we really did have healthy diets in those days

[sleepraptor]

DrKrogersfavouritepatient Haagen Dazs definitely do coffee still, I have some in my freezer . They did however stop Hazelnut which was their best one second only to Belgian Chocolate.

'They were the entire point of December'

Hilarious! Sorry OP

[Lollipops1987]

They discontinued the chipolata when they got rid of Peter Andre!! (Sorry had to be said lol)

[HoneyDragon]

I hated Spangles.

[BlueButTrue]

Asda are doing Mince Pies suitable for vegans if anyone's interested

[RueDeWakening]

You can still get Sosmix! My local health food shop orders it in for me when I need it, or buy it online, a randomly Googled site for you.

[MrsJayy]

I nearly died a death choking on a spangle as a kid i had to have a good back slap from a woman who worked in the shop so no spangles revival.

[Ideserveaholiday]

OLD ENGLISH Spangles. I'd forgotten all about them until this thread but now I want some. Thanks Christina - more chocolate therapy for me.
