So if you're in Scotland you will know what a munchy box is. Basically it's a pizza box from the chippy, Indian or Chinese filled with a variety of stuff. DH is out tonight, im throwing a mild strop about food we have in the house and so I was browsing the local Just Eat to see what I might order. One oif the local chippy/Indians do a 'Single Mum Munchy Box'
Why do they think this is specifically for single mums? The chocolate?
It's a bit bat shit right?

Have added a screen shot !

RosesandRaindrops They should be rank but are actually amazing! Pie shell, fill with macaroni cheese then topped with cheese (so the cheese is kinda like a lid)

Ooh, see that sounds amazing! Would totally eat that.
I've just googled pizza crunch though and I'm seeing battered pizza, WTF I'm yet to be convinced on that one lol

My gallbladder just jumped out and ran off down the street to stop me from damaging it any further thanks to this thread inducing such filthy thoughts.

They are lovely.

That is indeed a pizza crunch. It’s an acquired taste but surprisingly good.

Especially after a hangover when you just want stodgy food

Pfft, don't get anything like that round here as hangover food.
Big bacon or sausage and tomato buttie from the local greasy spoon down the road and a can of Diet Coke is my go to lol

my local does a vegan munch box - deep fried seitan, vegan haggis, smoked carrot, garlic deep fried mushrooms, pickled shred.... other stuff I can't identify....

Where is this? .....WHERE IS THIS! ......(gets car keys)

Not a good name but we have them in England, never fancied them.

sparklefarts · 16/09/2019 07:49

Oh I know a few vegans who would love the vegan one!

Hilarious, Single mums are now a market target!!
It’s annoying what people assume about single mothers.
I’ve heard some dreadful shite, from must watch the soaps to must be desperate for a shag! Watch your husbands as she must want yours and now shite food boxed up for those miserable nights you can’t be arsed with nutrition with only the kids to cook turkey twizzlers for.
Yaaaayyyy.Grin

Tinyandpetite · 16/09/2019 09:18

I’d totally buy that for a tenner - if they had in the midlands!

I can’t believe what you get for the price, round here “kids” take away meals are £5 and that’s just chicken chips and a drink

Boswellisdead · 16/09/2019 11:43

Honestly not sure what would bring me more joy - troughing through that lot of deep-fried salty carbs, or pretending to be horrified at the contents and leaping on my high horse to condemn the chavs/fatties who will bring down western civilisation/Scottish heathens who would want one.

I think I'll just plough in and enjoy myself though. Fat Scottish Chav signing off.

FelicisNox · 16/09/2019 13:58

It's weird and there is WAY too much food in that box IMO but it wouldn't stop me buying it. 😁

Maybe they are trying to suss out the single laydeez..... perhaps they are on the look out for a wife? 🤔
