EAT WELL FOR LESS BBC 1 Thur 8pm

[Blondeshavemorefun]

I’m hoping tomorrow is a new Episode

as says Chris and Jordon

not Greg and Chris

has grey left ?

triplets

have we seen triplets before

obv aa usual they will spend silly money on food and be amazed that they can save

and as always someone will say that their usual favourite brand is rank 😂😂

Yes they were buying lots of fruit and veg - and throwing most of it out as the mum was a slave to best before dates.

Was marvellous without. Though I couldn't swear at the telly....

I miss greg

am I the only one

I hope they get their holiday

i prob wouid have put on credit card and paid off

imagine if they save and he dies before
they go away

When making the pie, I was surprised they weren't advised to "make one to eat now and one for the freezer". It would involve minimal extra preparation and they'd have their own "ready meal" in the freezer for whenever they fancied it. 🌹

That’s a good point @Newestname002

it did look nice - I do love a pie

shame they don’t have a list of recipes they do each episode

Yes I have a feeling that's so they sell more books. They only ever put one or two up on the bbc website.

I thought Jordan was good. So sad re the little boy. So sweet when he licked the bowl and made his sisters laugh.

Seems it is on next week as well

c&j help a family of seri snackers who love a takeaway

can they get them to enjoy the same meal and cut down on snacks and save money

well course they will save money if no takeaways. We had one last night. Chinese almost £40 🙀🙀🙀

im away on honeymoon finally lol - so will try and catch on iPlayer

@Blondeshavemorefun have a fab time!

One thing I liked on the recent episode was that most swaps seemed to come from Aldi. Usually it’s about three different supermarkets which I think would somewhat negate savings once you factor in petrol and time to traipse round them all. I’d love to see a revisited episode and find out how much the swaps and savings have been kept up.

Thanks @Ducksinthebath up at 2.30am Tom. Gulps

yes I love the way it’s one shop mainly now

Is it usual in UK supermarkets that almost everything is pre-packed in a load of plastic?
Literally everything seems to come packaged up with a brand slapped on.

Yes, entirely usual. Though there are some low or no packaging stores popping up.

The woman this week is annoying me already.

"I don't know why my children snack so much!"

Because you buy the stuff, and have cupboards full of the stuff, and don't control their access to it, you daft mare.

Blimey. I'm rarely shocked but bloody hell.

250 packets of crisps at home! And they had bought more. Wonder how they can cut down on snacking and food spending...

Im quite shocked by this. Kids don't eat meals because they spend all day eating snacks?

And here's 2 tons of chocolates and biscuits as I'm worried about family history of diabetes 🙄

It was the whole faux "I have no idea why they snack and hoe to stop them" bollocks.

Just. Stop. Buying. It.

What rude children. Saying that their mum's homemade fishfingers are "gross". And the dad is as bad.

The mum has T2D but eats a porridge with banana for breakfast and has a diet coke addiction. Yet claims she eats "healthy".

I agree. They were v rude!

It’s okay to not like something but not behave like that.

I wouldn’t have cooked those eggs!

We know why there's been a crisp shortage in the supermarkets now.

The kids are going to be really tough to win over. I think it makes a nice change to have kids who don't like any of it. But agree they are so rude about it.

I like this Bristol enterprise, what a great idea.

The younger girl seems determined not to like anything. She's grimacing before she's even tasted it (though the fish fingers didn't look great).

Blimey what a contrast from last weeks.

Last week just needed some guidance and confidence during a really rough time.

This week are just children behaving badly with parents who are buying them junk. They won't go out and get it themselves so WHY buy 250 bags of crisps etc.
