Do you?

FlamingJuno · 28/08/2018 19:34

I wouldn't have thought nuggets and fish fingers were MN approved Confused.

Not deliberately, but I noticed the other day that Birds Eye chicken dippers are mumsnet approved! I’ve been buying plenty as they’re about the only thing my morning sickness seems to be able to cope with!

PickAChew · 28/08/2018 19:37

Captain beardy face stuff?

Own brand is usually nicer.

RoryGillmoresEvilTwin · 28/08/2018 19:38

Dammit! I now want a fish finger sandwich and I have no fish fingers 😭

There's a lasagne sauce I use (Napolina maybe?) that says Mumsnet approved on it but I don't buy it because of that. I buy it because I can't be arsed to make a sauce from scratch

DextroDependant · 28/08/2018 19:43

Some things I buy are mumsnet approved but that doesn't affect my decision to buy then.

LaPufalina · 28/08/2018 19:45

Got some Disney flapjacks reduced from ocado and they have the seal of approval, didn't even know it was a thing but they're nice!

MissConductUS · 28/08/2018 19:51

I had no idea this was a thing.

GrumpyOldMare · 28/08/2018 19:53

No. I buy GrumpyOldMAre approved food

NonJeNeRegretteRien · 28/08/2018 19:53

YABU

TheGhostOfYou · 28/08/2018 19:57

Not purposely. I noticed the baby fromages frais I bought last week were mumsnet approved though, I didn't even know there were mumsnet approved foods!

Sitranced · 28/08/2018 19:59

I don't like pom bears

NonaGrey · 28/08/2018 20:00

I had no idea that Mumsnet officially approved anything on the packaging.

But then I don’t buy either nuggets or fish fingers so perhaps that’s why...

All my shopping comes from Aldi :)

JohnnyMcGrathSaysFuckOff · 28/08/2018 20:01

I'm sorry.... Disney flapjacks are MN approved?

Isn't that about the most unMN thing ever?

Surely it would be more like avocado and water smoothies.... maybe they have too much sugar though Sad

lily2403 · 28/08/2018 20:01

Mumsnent approved foods? I didnt even know this exists and why would it Hmm

HicDraconis · 28/08/2018 20:02

No, because I don’t live in the UK. I buy food that my family likes. What is required for MN approval? Are they employing nutritionists and dietitians?

user1471426142 · 28/08/2018 20:03

OpenThatTrapDoor Wierdly I craved chicken dippers last pregnancy despite not having had them for at least a decade.

Murinae · 28/08/2018 20:03

I bought some mumsnet approved chicken burgers last week from Iceland. Didn’t know it was a thing till then

Sparklingbrook · 28/08/2018 20:13

I think MN approved means that Mnetters reviewed it and deemed it good?

aLilNonnyMouse · 28/08/2018 20:35

I don't buy them because they are, but some of the things I buy are.

BarbaraofSevillle · 28/08/2018 20:40

The Mumsnetters who approve pasta sauce and chicken dippers are clearly different ones to those who only allow kale and quinoa to pass their DCs lips and deride dippers and pasta sauce as processed shit full of sugar, salt and additives.
