Yum yum

To share with you my delicious takeaway… yes that is for one person and yes that is a parmo 👌🏼

NOBODY IS GETTING DIABETES AND LOSING A FOOT BECAUSE OF ONE FUCKING TAKEAWAY

No need to shout, but that’s not what I said. Unless your are diabetic, I doubt you understand the risks and the damage - which is cumulative: cue ‘I’m type 1 blah blah’

I understand I'm not uneducated thank you.

@Holypricks there has never been a poster for which a username is more apt

Exactly what I was going to ask. Strips of chocolate?

Only 1500 calories?! More like 3500 I'd have thought!

at all the faux naivety about the donner kebab meat.

You'd probably all claim to have never been to McDonald's either and call it MacDonald's to emphasise your unfamiliarity with the brand.

The infantilisation of food by some posters on here reveals a lot.

“Munchy box!”
”Yum yum!”

It’s fine in theory if this is strictly a “solidarity amongst dirty takeaway eaters” thread.

I still think however that we have a really weird damaging food culture here in the UK. I’m British and I don’t really want any part of it .

Predictably, I then get accusations of only eating a lettuce leaf a day, or being a “skinny minnie” (again, why do even the insults have to sound childlike).

I do actually enjoy food. I just don’t enjoy this kind of food. Does that make me a heretic?

And for anyone who accuses me of being judgy, someone posted a poorly lit picture of their takeaway box on the “AIBU”
section of Mumsnet, without any real context other than “look what I’m about to eat”. So yeah.. I would then expect a variety of responses…

Oh for gods sake…. I was taking the piss with the ‘yum yum’ (although suggest you take that up with almost every bakery in the land… cue the faux naïveté now about what I mean). Also the items are on the takeaway menus as ‘Munchy boxes’.

I love food. Love it. I’ve eaten at some of the best restaurants in the world. I’m actually very well educated and well travelled despite the fact that people seem to think us northerners are all pigeon whisperers drowning in gravy…

For the majority of the time my diet is very health, I exercise 4/5 times a week and I remain a size 6 with a perfect hourglass shape. BUT sometimes I like to have food like this… literally a couple of times a year. It’s not that deep.

Do try and calm down dear

i exercise 4/5 times a week and I remain a size 6 with a perfect hourglass shape.

I can’t believe anyone actually talks like this 😆

You’re way too invested in this 😂 someone buys a takeaway and posts a pic of it on the internet in a light hearted boast - it really isn’t that deep!

If she’d posted a photo of a mountain of pizza boxes with the caption “that’s food for this week sorted” I could understand people responding less favourably but it was ONE takeaway!! Yum yum indeed

😂😂😂 well I’m considering getting a takeaway this coming weekend … guess I should book myself in for amputation 🙄

I've never had it (and never plan to) and didn't know what it was. But I can assure you, I've eaten many times at McDs. It's not 'faux', it's just not something that appeals to me.

Do you have diabetes?

No I wouldn't talk like this in real life because my real life friends are not snobs - when in Rome...

Why do people on Mumsnet continue to use this tired trope “You’re way too invested in this” when someone writes a post contrary to the thread’s direction?

I’m not “too invested.” I don’t need to “calm down” because I’ve not displayed anger or any other emotion at all.

You lot need to find some other phrases because these ones have lost their meaning through misuse.

Do you have diabetes?

Even if she did, one takeaway isn't going to kill her or cause her to have her foot chopped off 🙄

at all the faux naivety about the donner kebab meat”

Nothing faux here. I’ve had lots of shish and enjoy a Maccies sometimes: I’ve never eaten donner but seen it, it didn’t look like that!

No, but I’m guessing this one takeaway will give me diabetes right? 😂

Don't be a twat.

If you think diabetes is funny, you're also a moron.

I think that pp was joking. And I thought it was a very good joke.

Heard of cumulative damage?

In my original comment I was suggesting that someone laughing about a serious, potentially life limiting illness and disregarding it, knowing full well how damaging it can be, was misplaced. They know that, I know that.
You, and your eye rolling are part of the problem.

Anyway, let’s hope the OP had nothing more than indigestion, if indeed that.

No diabetes isn’t funny - but the suggestion that OP will get diabetes off the back of this one takeaway is hilarious

Enjoy your takeaways, OP and everyone! We all deserve a treat.

Perhaps get your face out of the shit and read things properly, that isn't what was said <yawn>
