Ooo I do it from a crisp packet still haha

Waste not want not!

nickelbabe · 06/02/2010 13:02

no, it's fine.

and to be expected.
how else are you going to eat crushed pringles?

i love pickeld onion monster munch on strawberry jam sandwiches (cut into quarters so each MM gets its "own" sandwich)

lazymumofteenagesons · 06/02/2010 13:02

YANBU - I always tip the end of the crisps into my mouth from the packet and lick yoghurt tops etc. No different from drinking from a can or bottle.

But, I cannot abide people drinking from milk/juice cartons and putting back in the fridge.

juneybean · 06/02/2010 13:02

And! If I'm eating rice and I'm at the last gobful I push it on the fork with my finger lol

I love eating chocolate with crisps. A bite of chocolate (have to make sure you swallow it first) then a couple of crisps, then more chocolate - lovely.

Does anyone remember those Puff crisps, were about 10p a bag and a bit like floor sweepings. Can you get them anywhere now?

BooHooMonkey · 06/02/2010 13:19

Ooooh Monster Munch sandwiches, yum!

lazymumofteenagesons · 06/02/2010 13:19

Also the best combination is a cup of tea with cheese and onion crisps.

I love all the rubbishy food. Very comforting to eat sugar sandwiches and it has to be white sugar on white bread

those puff crisps are still available in our local cash and carry.

the kiddies love them

and they are still 10p too (oh no, maybe 15p.....god, brina is shocking this monring).

sorry tho but for choc and crisps.

that said, am guessing not much different than chocolate covered pringles!

Chocolate covered pringles??

Alicetheinvisible · 06/02/2010 13:24

Ooh, Psycho, i may have to widen my search (i'm pg, it is my excuse)

A cup of tea, with a cheese and onion crisp sandwich

We used to get given sugar sandwiches at nursery

LetThereBeRock · 06/02/2010 13:24

Do you mean Pretzels? Or is this a new craze that I've missed out on?

majafa · 06/02/2010 13:27

I love, Laughing Cow Light, Sandwich Spread (original) & Walkers Prawn Cocktail crisps in a sandwich, Mmmmmm

or Ready salted crisps and Salad Cream to dip them in.

Does any one remember the 10p football shaped corn snacks, Bacon flavour..

Oooh and approx 30 odd yrs ago, Waitrose used to do corn snaks in the shape of a wagon/cart wheel they were spring onion flavour, ooh what I'd give for a packet of them..lol

sorry for causing unneccessary excitemtne for choclate pringles.

see yous later....night night....

LetThereBeRock · 06/02/2010 13:31

Goodnight.Hope you get a good sleep.

But damn you for making me crave chocolate Pringles. I think they'd be rather nice.

cantmummyhaveabreak · 06/02/2010 13:36

Mmmmmmmmm........ Licking DD2's (11mo) yoghurt lid while she's flapping her arms with mouth wide open waiting for it.

i do the pringles thing, but only in front of DH- would hate for the DC's to start doing it.

DH still drinks the milk from his cereal bowl if able to eat when DC's not here too- another thing i wont allow them to see as would hate for them to do it in public!! We'd look like a bunch of banshee's if they were slurping milk out of bowls and tipping crushed pringles straight from the tube into their mouths!!

Mumcentreplus · 06/02/2010 13:39

Best combo..cheese & onion crisps and chocolate bar of choice..(personally I love Time-out)...

does anyone remember 'Burger Bites?' corn snack shaped like little burgers?

Kaloki · 06/02/2010 13:53

Mumcentreplus I thought I was the only one who did cheese and onion crisps & chocolate!

LetThereBeRock · 06/02/2010 13:55

Salt and vinegar crisps and chocolate are better than chocolate with cheese and onion.

Mumcentreplus · 06/02/2010 13:57

..its such a good mix..we should start a FB page I say!..lol..Lovers of COC

SpringHeeledJack · 06/02/2010 13:58

I heard Amy Lame on the radio once horrorstruck at a guy on the tube, tipping crisp crumbs from the bag straight into his mouth. I thought everyone did it

Friends of mine swears by wotsits and Bournville at once

Mumcentreplus · 06/02/2010 14:00

spits...never!@ Rocky..the salt and vinegar has stripped away your taste-buds

Mumcentreplus · 06/02/2010 14:01

C = cheese
O = Onion
C = Chocolate..
