Don't you just love it when a company that makes stuff you like comes out as being ethically sound?

What a wonderful excuse to add chocolate tea cakes and caramel wafer biscuits to my next grocery order.

Turnocks are in my basket for the next shopping delivery.

They do coconut things called Snowballs. DD when through a phase of loving Teacakes so I saw the Snowballs and decided to try them. I bought a HUGE box because it was on offer. Every other member of my family decided they were vile and I found them irresistible. So I ate them all. Blush

Very importantly, WHERE can I get the coconutty wafer thingies??

KittenKong · 22/10/2021 21:08

www.tunnock.co.uk/.

A pop-up ‘cookie policy’ amused the hell out of me.

Grin I want to go to Bothwell Castle now- the kids always do a "we're not worthy" bow to the factory as we pass!

I had a PLAIN. Chocolate Tunnocks wafer earlier today. It was gorgeous. I had no idea I was munching in solidarity with the LBG alliance.
Tunnocks are legends.

Teacakes just added to the online shop for tomorrow. Wink

Babdoc · 22/10/2021 21:36

Beamur, they also do a dark chocolate version of their teacake, in a blue and silver wrapper, and it’s scrumptious.

BettyFilous · 22/10/2021 21:40

All this talk of Tunnocks has reminded me of then toddler DS making a beeline for a plate of them and stuffing one in his mouth whole with the foil wrapping still on it. If he was a dog he’d be a Labrador. Grin

I looked on the Sainsburys app and they don’t do logs or snowballs. 😔

Grimbelina · 22/10/2021 21:50

Just ordered some in solidarity!

Crumpets could be the hill I die on

I once, briefly, thought my dog had testicular cancer. It was after a family birthday party and I picked him up and discovered a large, flesh-coloured lump on his genitals. Upon further, panicked, investigation it turned out he'd managed to get half a Tunnock's Teacake stuck to the side of his balls and he'd licked most of the chocolate off.
That's the funniest thing I've read all day!

At moments like this I get Twitter FOMO, but I know in reality that my quality of life is improved by not having an account.

I shall think about Tunnock Eating Rational Feminist
FemaleAndLearning · 22/10/2021 23:41

I watched the video on the Daily Mail link above. Calling the delegates Nazi scum.
The mail gave a definition of a gender critical person as someone who believes in biological sex which I thought was good. Most rational people would be gender critical.

FemaleAndLearning · 22/10/2021 23:43

Copy of the quote
"Gender critical is used to describe those who believe people cannot change biological sex."

Selkiesarereal · 22/10/2021 23:55

Getting a little concerned over the panic buying of the tea cakes and may not get my 14 boxes tomorrow!

They can take my freedom but they will never take my tea cake!

TonyThreePies · 23/10/2021 00:04

I'm a happy Teacake Eating Rad Fem, will buy some tomorrow if they haven't sold out. The DM article is like satire Confused

MiladyBerserko · 23/10/2021 00:42

Teacakes are overrated. Caremel Logs are the best.

GAHgamel · 23/10/2021 02:57

Not fussed about the teacakes, and the snowballs taste slightly chemically to me these days, but I loved them when I was a kid. The dark chocolate wafers (the ones in the blue wrappers) are a fixture in my online shopping basket though, and I was bereft when there was that period when they couldn't be had for love nor money.

10 years ago we called those people "sane" and "biologically literate".
