To not bring my panettone to nye party?

[malificent7]

LIDL panettone is utterly devine. Aibu to not take it to nye party and scoff it all myself?!
I am bringing other snacks and i give to food banks but ut noone can scoff my panettone!!!

I'd be keeping that at home.
Just take a tub of hummus and some breadsticks.

My Italian teacher says Lidl is the best panettone she's found in the GB; better than M&S, Waitrose etc.

YANBU - definitely scoff it all yourself :-)

YADDDDDDDDDNU

Panettone is the food of the gods. I only really discovered it a few years ago, despite the family being given a proper, straight-from-Italy one every year for years, which my mother would give away for some reason known only to her (and I was not allowed to open it under any circumstances!). Have to get at least one every year now to make up for it. This year I bought one in November, one when I was at my mother's for Christmas (and, despite the above, she ate half of it) and a third yesterday. It is going nowhere except my stomach (and despite me being on a low-carb diet!).

YADNBU!

The Lidl one is lush. I ate half with a vat of coffee and turned the rest into a pudding.

Yes - I am a greedy sod.

DNBU to eat it all yourself. Why waste it on a party where it won't be appreciated?

We had the Morrisons the Best fruit panettone this year and it was delicious. Even after 3/4 days of opening it was still really soft. It goes down so well with Bucks Fizz.

Isn't Lidl supposed to be cheap? Why then, buy a second one to take to the party.

Quite right. No one in their right mind will want to toast and butter panettone in the middle of a party, so save it for your NY breakfast.

Panettone is heaven - you are definitely not unreasonable to keep it to yourself! :-)

It’s amazing. Is it still in store?

You toast panettone??

I’m always a bit confused by panettone. Do you slice it and spread it with butter or just eat it plain like a cake? I had a small chocolate one given to me last year and I ended up making a bread and butter pudding out of it-‘‘twas lush!

I buy 6 or 7 every year and don't share them with anyone except my kids. :)

Are you expected to provide it?

Deffo leave at home . Love it as bread and butter pud!!!

Division Belle, it is just one of the ways I eat it. Eggy bread it is another, or bread and butter pudding, or ripped apart with my bare hands and devoured like a wild animal........

May I ask why it's so nice? Is it not like Madeira cake?

Mine is sitting on the kitchen work top all ready for our NYD roast dinner tomorrow. I'm making a bread and butter pudding with 2/3 of it (there'll only be 6 of us and it's a massive one).
The rest will be sliced/portioned up for lunch boxes come Wednesday.

It's not nice! We have four in the kitchen as DH always overbuys and doesn't remember that he is the only one that eats it.

I would rather eat savoury stuff with alcohol anyway. Leave it at home.

It had been reduced to £1.99 yesterday.
Hope there's still some left on Tuesday.

I bought a pear & chocolate one cheap after Christmas from Waitrose. Thought I'd be reasonably safe from that, but oh dear it was fabulous!

It's not really party food anyway so I would keep it and take something else.

Keep it ....

Had a mini one last night with a glass of baileys. Delicious.
