And I don't feel even the slightest bit unreasonable. In fact, I bought them knowing that I'd sit and eat them all as soon as I got home.

What do you regularly buy, knowing that you will use/eat the lot of it?

Well I think I understand the nation’s obesity crisis a bit better now.

Read the room.

Where does one purchase the crunchy nut peanut butter.......

I got it from Tesco but I believe most supermarkets have it

Mollymoostoo · 29/08/2022 20:33

Moam pinball, peanut m&m's and pringles.

awwbiscuits · 29/08/2022 20:34

@PeloAddict ah! I searched on the Tesco app and nothing came up. It's now my mission to find it as a 39 week pregnant woman. Waddle on!

Dark choc ginger biscuits, I live in fear of the day they put ginger in the dark choc fingers.

Pecan & Cranberry loaf from M&S & Brie

As a direct result of this post I’ll be purchasing both of these items as soon as humanly possible and inhaling the lot (are the loaves a Christmas thing though?)

I’ve read all 13 pages of this thread. It’s torture, but in a good way.

Tesco parmesan and garlic twists - they're like crack!

Aldi do garlic and parsley bruschetta that need carefull handling. The best part is when you've emptied the bag, after a week or so if I'm good, and can then cut it down to a few cm and use a finger to get all the garlicy residue in the bottom of the bag!

Borders! I stock up when they're on offer.

Jaffa cakes. Whole pack hoovered up in a flash. Daren't buy them any more. The Mr Kipling orange fondant fancies they make around Halloween. Gone in one go. And, sadly, Waitrose has just begun to sell a Basque Cheesecake. It's ridiculously lush and delicious. No fruit, just cheesecake faintly flavoured with vanilla and orange. Yum. Not buying it again.

Mince pies. I once ate 16 in a single sitting.

winterchills · 29/08/2022 20:41

They are my absolute fave. I eat most of them two and convince myself that they are tiny!!

@GyozaGuiting 🙄

Op- gf Bakewell tarts

Sidisawetlettuce · 29/08/2022 20:43

Any chocolate. I once emptied a sharing bag of white buttons into a bowl with the same amount of dark buttons and milk choc buttons and ate the lot in an evening.

IcakethereforeIam · 29/08/2022 20:44

Any of them, I have no control. Once they're in the house, they're in me!

Except Duchy, I tell myself Prince Charles isn't getting any of my money. It helps a little.

Smoked mozarella

TwinsJan22 · 29/08/2022 20:52

Lidl Jaffa Cakes or Tunnocks Tea Cakes for me.

OhTheLeetleHandsAndFeetle · 29/08/2022 20:53

Those peanuts with a crispy coating. Any flavour.

Smoked mozarella

I admit to eating a whole block of that square mozzarella, the one that is the long oblong

Irresistible.

Twiglets. I don’t care how big the bag/box is, they’re all mine

Dillydollydingdong · 29/08/2022 20:56

Victoria sponge especially with fresh cream

BogOffTraceyBeaker · 29/08/2022 20:56

Peanut butter and apple sauce straight out the jars - same spoon peanut butter first then apple sauce splattered on top

We just gorged on lotus biscoff ice cream

I hope that's the royal We, otherwise you're not playing the game hard enough.

Cheeseandcrackers86 · 29/08/2022 20:56

Lotus biscuit spread! Worse still on bread and butter which makes it even more calorific 🤣

oopsfellover · 29/08/2022 20:57

Whole box of Maltesers
Family bag of Walkers sensations
A whole Edam cheese
