Tunnocks

I have seen it quoted on here for many years that Tunnocks are to be supported as they support women's rights. I have looked on their website and social media and can see nothing to support this rumour. Does anyone have any evidence? Thanks.

If anyone has a recipe for coconut tablet id be very happy. My granny used to make a batch of normal tablet and a batch of coconut tablet and I've never managed to successfully replicate the coconut one.

I don't think I've ever had Coconut Tablet - is it anything like Coconut Ice?

I got distracted watching the brilliant Eubanks - Medvedev match and I’ve come back to so many reasons I need to move to Scotland! Shame about all the political reasons why not

Literally the normal tablet but with desiccated coconut. And maybe coconut milk? I'm not sure

But I've never been able to get it right just like grannie beetle made.

Uddingston is a small town to the right of Glasgow, Duddingston is a suburb of Edinburgh.

I am not sure about your plans for road trips to the Tunnock's shop. It's no Betty's.

Ah happy days. My gran and grandpa lived just down the road from Uddingston and (so family legend has it) knew the Tunnocks well. So I feel I have a family duty to support them...

Caramel wafers all the way for me, milk chocolate please. Afraid I can't bear the tea cakes (ducks).

How have I gone through life having never enjoyed the oral orgasm experience of a warm melt in your mouth tunnocks teacake?!!
Found myself inside Sainsbury’s searching for the holy grail of yummyness on way home from work.
Found the teacakes, ate 4 on the way home, have had to ask partner to hide the other 16 and to give them out on a ration basis ( 2 boxes of course)

Have you torn the house apart yet, to find them? Because you know you will. There's no going back once you've tasted the Tunnocks.

ifIwerenotanandroid · 12/07/2023 19:53

BTW, where are you all buying boxes of 10? I only ever see boxes of 6.

They sell boxes of 100 in the shops here where they’re made. Thought I had moved into heaven when we bought a house 2 mins from the factory and it’s shop…
… until I found out that Mr Tunnocks is a staunch conservative and donates regularly to the Tory party.
lees make better snowballs anyway. 😂

Don't tell Merlin&Friends. We'll be back to 'it's all a right-wing conspiracy' again. <sign>

I am so sorry Ladies and Gents to have ignored you all. I was distracted by work, Pamela, and then HE.

I need to read 239 posts to catch up! The only reason I posted was because I was buying snacks for the teenager (male), saw Tunnocks - thought yeah good brand, then thought but are they? Not so sure, but I shall spend a merry hour this evening reading your delightful posts. Thank you for my evening's entertainment!

I know I'm gonna regret asking

Is it the bagpipes you skin and wax or the haggis?

I am no longer sure I know which way is up, I thought haggis was a food, some animal stomach/skin of stomach? stuffed with err, meat? And er erm oats? And then cooked somehow?

I was referring to a fresh haggis, I think if you skin bagpipes it makes them harder to get a tune out of.

@Boiledbeetle that tinned chicken is one of the most revolting things I’ve ever seen <boak>

Boiledbeetle · 12/07/2023 21:09

I want one (and I promise I wouldn't eat it)

There’s no going back now. You’re doomed to a life of never having enough tea cakes in the house. Even if you buy 100.

It is possible that Merlin is a secret Tunnocks eater.

Sorry it has taken me so long to respond. I had to find a playable version of Hamish. Then I had to explain to a co-worker why I was watching Bagpuss. Sadly, the bagpipes in Bagpuss isn't the same as my stuffed toy but, on the bright side, I did enjoy watching Bagpuss.

I've now got the old RWhites secret lemonade drinker advert playing in my head. But it's Merlin as the main character and the words are I'm a secret Tunnocks teacake eater
