THANKS A LOT.

I've eaten half a car in 2 days!!! I keep going at it with a damn spoon. It is seriously the most delicious thing I think I have ever tasted.

Mmmmmmm speculaas

I have 3 jars in my cupboard but the proper stuff from Holland

Hoppinggreen · 27/02/2014 16:18

I've been avoiding buying some as I thought It might just go the way of Marshmallow fluff ( me, spoon, everyone out, TV) and it looks like I was right!!
However, I think my daughter might like it so maybe I'd better buy some anyway - just for her honest

BitOutOfPractice · 27/02/2014 16:35

Hopping this stuff will put you off fluff forever. This us the real deal!

ClaraFox · 27/02/2014 16:36

It's sickly sweet and gross

And I speak as someone with a VERY sweet tooth!

I hope it's better than man fluff. I bought that on the recommendation of Mumsnet,and it's Pinot pleasant.

GingerMaman · 27/02/2014 16:49

Saw it in waitrose, picked it up and put it back.

Will pick it up next time though. Smooth or crunchy?

Weliveinabeautifulworld · 27/02/2014 16:53

Just my luck all the supermarkets are selling it for £1.25/£1.50 yet I live near a Tesco that is still charging £2.25 :(

Rabbit did your phone autocorrect Not to Pinot? Grin

(SIL's phone autocorrected Ducks to Fucks recently...sign of rude texts being the norm!)

squoosh · 27/02/2014 16:59

I think it's absolutely vile. I threw a nearly full jar in the bin.

Weliveinabeautifulworld · 27/02/2014 17:03

Prices :)

ChippyMinton · 27/02/2014 17:10

It's divine. Crunchy is my preference, the smooth is a bit claggy.

RabbitPies · 27/02/2014 17:15

[Grin] at fucks.
It did. I wouldn't mind,but I don't even drink alcohol. Not sure how I got man fluff instead of marshmallow either.

Autocorrect is weird.

BelleOfTheBorstal · 27/02/2014 17:52

I've just put on about four lbs purely by reading this thread. Don't think I will be risking the consequences in real life!

WhereIsMyHat · 27/02/2014 18:07

I don't like it, I love lotus biscuits though. The spread tastes like oil and horrible stuff to me.

Snatchoo · 27/02/2014 18:16

Ew I hate it!

It's like biscuit regurge.

BitOutOfPractice · 27/02/2014 18:18

You need to go to holland or Belgium and buy the proper stuff.

Hoppinggreen · 27/02/2014 18:19

Rabbit?? Man fluff???
No intention of popping that in my mouth!!

vastknapsack · 27/02/2014 18:24

All I can think of is that it's shrove Tuesday next week and it might be necessary to try it on pancakes

BitOutOfPractice · 27/02/2014 18:45

Vast try it on a crumpet! Trust me

Kveta · 27/02/2014 18:52

DS got a jar of it in his stocking, it is his most requested food stuff, bar none. He calls it 'biscuit honey' as opposed to 'chocolate honey' (nutella) and 'bee honey' (honey). He went through a phase of calling marmite 'wasp honey' too, but has sadly reverted to calling it 'nasty' like his father does. Philistines.

vastknapsack · 27/02/2014 18:54

I intend to try it on everything! I work for one of those places where it is on offer so I shall stock up on my next shift... Already had my eye on the galaxy and milky bar spreads in the tubes. Imagine, you could squeeze it straight into your mouth

ChunkyPickle · 27/02/2014 18:56

Really? I think it tastes like pre-chewed biscuits (not a great surprise I suppose).

Not dissimilar to a toddler sharing their soggy, sucked snack with you and you having to take a bite because they're not going to remove it from in front of your face until you have.. (or because they've handed it to you, and you don't have anywhere to put it right now so just stuff it in your mouth to get rid of it)
