To eat my second magnum of the day

heatwave00 · 15/06/2023 19:57

I’ve developed a bit of a magnum habit over this past week of heatwave. They’re expensive even when on offer but the second and last magnum in the freezer is calling my name. They’re the vegan ones as I’m dairy free, so not stealing from the rest of the household who have the normal ones. AIBU to have the last one even though I’ve already had one today?

All ice cream is fair game in this heat. Do it. 🍨

I say go for it. Occasions like this, I usually decide not to eat it and instead eat crisps, peanuts, an apple, a cracker and cheese and then the magnum. Best just to eat the magnum I say 😂

Glad it's not just me who does this. OP - have it Grin

The vegan ones are good. It’s hot, you need to cool down therefore you must eat it. There’s no other option really. 😉

Save it for tomorrow

dudsville · 15/06/2023 20:53

Mama said there'd be days like this. Go for it.

SleeplessinScarbourough · 15/06/2023 20:55

I did the same thing last week! Eat and enjoy!! 😁

I was developing an alarming addiction to Ferrero Rocher ice pops. I was having 2 a day sometimes. Then I discovered each one is over 400 cals!! And I'm already overweight. So I bought a tub of Oppo double choc fudge ice cream. Less than 300 cals for the whole tub. I've been eating a few scoops of that after dinner the last few nights instead. It's bloody delish.

LifeIsPainHighness · 15/06/2023 21:01

Go for it OP (I will await the inevitable pro-ana posts that dog any thread that mentions food).

Cocolapew · 15/06/2023 21:02

I've just had 2 Cornettos

HOLD THE PHONE!!!

Alsonification · 15/06/2023 21:02

Sorry I don't mean for that to sound preachy. Deffo eat the magnum!!!
I'm just suggesting guilt free alternatives should you need one.

Alsonification · 15/06/2023 21:03

@LifeIsPainHighness YES!!! And it's as delicious as you're imagining right now.

I’ll help hold the phone - I was just thinking the same thing! - to the ice cream van!

CanIbeRio · 15/06/2023 21:05

Do it. I've just fessed up to eating my 2nd jam and cream horn of the day!!

Alsonification · 15/06/2023 21:07

Here you go ladies.

SunnieShine · 15/06/2023 21:07

I had three iccies tonight. Will probably have three tomorrow...and any other day this hot.

They are delicious, but small. And expensive. DH bought them as they were on offer, and I doubt he will buy them again. So I can only dream.

(Before anyone jumps on this, I’m happy to forgo the ice creams for the benefit of never having to sort the food shop. He’s doing it right now and I’m messing on mn.)

honeyfox · 15/06/2023 21:10

This is why I can't have nice ice-creams in the house!

In saying that, I just went for petrol and got a Reese's Overload. It's like crack cocaine so I only have one the odd time.

CharlotteStreetW1 · 15/06/2023 21:12

Go for it.

I had a Biscoffi ice cream when I got in from work (but they're only wee) and I've just had a Magnum Double Sunflower (not entirely convinced, think I'll revert to the ruby chocolate if they're still doing them this year).

Mynotsoperfectlittlefamily · 15/06/2023 21:31

Jumping on the Ferrero Bandwagon they are delicious and moreish. it's a heatwave they don't come around often enjoy alllllll the ice cream. (I. Heavily pregnant and suffering and desperate for some ice cream but we ran out 🤣😭😭)

justjuggling · 15/06/2023 23:20

I had 2 mint magnums on the bounce today. Bloody lovely.

Snap! I had one this afternoon and the other one was calling to me from the freezer.
