I just ate a whole pack of french fancies

[Hawdyerwheesht]

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?

Flame grilled and eaten, with a side of French Fancies!

Definitely a tube of pringles as well as French bread, salami and cheese.. That French stick be gone.

Well said @Cervinia

Tesco rhubarb and custard creams.

@Rosscameasdoody that sounds like Tunnocks tea cakes!

I’m coeliac so can’t eat gluten, I have no reaction to it so it’s so so hard not to eat it but I know it won’t be doing my insides any good even if outwardly I don’t feel ill.
I LOVE cake and would honestly given the opportunity easily demolish at least 6 boxes of French fancies before starting to feel like it was enough 😆
As it is I tend to go with gluten free cherry bakewells as they are alright.
I’ve just seen an advert for bake-off coming soon and was thinking how it will be disaster for my healthy eating stint as I can’t watch it without a big treat, I might start baking myself a cake or some cupcakes to watch it with as I’m sure they will be better and healthier than the shop bough gluten free rubbish

I agree. Read a couple of pages and felt nauseous!

Wow, thank you. Note to self - add to Tesco shop at the weekend !!

@Rosscameasdoody snowballs?

Whole blackforrest gateau.. Easily!
The fresh cream Victoria sponge a whole one easily.

Also i could eat 8 french fancies of i swapped the choc ones out.

Yep i have a very sweet tooth.

I DON'T DO IT REGULARLY THOUGH!

These!!
In the old days, Abbey Crunch if anyone remembers those? They're long gone now unfortunately 😪

Lime doritos, with or without mild salsa.
The lime and coriander poppadom crisps.
paprika Pringles.
flaming hot wotsits.
the new crunchy wotsits that are basically niknaks, also in the flaming hot flavour.

I have a crisp problem when I have pmt.
I am an actual adult now though and don’t just eat a share size bag of crisps for dinner like I did when I was a student.

If you look on the website ignore the bonkers review that claims they taste like horseradish, if its still up 🤣

No, snowballs didn’t have biscuit on the bottom, and I think they were chocolate coated. These were in packs and were pink and plain white, sitting on a small digestive type biscuit. See, I’m thinking about snowballs now !!

@Rosscameasdoody ohh, think I know what you mean! Can picture them, but no idea of the name

I used to love Abbey Crunch. Try Fox’s Ginger Cream Crunch - they’re the nearest you can get to them I think.

Tunnock tea cakes. Can almost suck them down whole. Like a marshmallow addicted hoover!

Jalapeño cheetos haven't bought them again once I realised the calories 😯

peanut M&Ms are freaking crack in a ball.

@Rosscameasdoody jam mallows?

Re gluten free shop bought rubbish. I don't think the shop bought stuff is worth bothering with tbh. It easier to make at home. The bread is so expensive. I have dabbled with making that at home but it's a poor second to soft shop bought stuff. Pre avoiding gluten I would scoff through orange cream biscuits, Jammy Dodgers, Viennese whirls or fig rolls. Obviously I would not eat a packet in one sitting as I'm not greedy! I would leave a couple and go back later!

Haven't done that in years! I think last time I did it made me feel sick. Was good while it lasted though.
Strong blue cheese, hovis crackers, chilli jam/compote, caramelised onion chutney , figs and a bottle of port. I would eat myself into a food coma if left alone!

Pringles, I try not to buy them anymore, especially the prawn cocktail ones.

Cadbury big bags of buttons.

I can pretend I won't eat them all that same evening.

But I always do.

I'm sure French Fancies are tiny now compared to when I was a child. Then, one was plenty. Now, I could work my way through eight in the course of an evening without feeling the slightest bit sick or wired. Just as well it never occurs to me to buy them. Olive bread is my regular eat-till-it's-gone thing.

Jaffa cakes , Pringles , coconut rings , fresh bread and butter
