Tunnocks

[thelionthewitchtheaudacityofTHISbitch]

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.

Just saw this and thought of you (well all of us that are a certain age)

I'm lucky in that I'm not a big one for sweet stuff, but I'm missing bread. I just had to throw half a stottie with green measles to the seagulls.

I am aware this is sacrilege, but I was in Aldi last night and found fake tunnocks caramel wafers.

They're not bad.

I sentence you to 10 hours of cell pacing for your sacrilege.

Can't tell at all what product they are trying to rip off there!

More to the point how similar are they (and how much are they for how many?)

Well, despite being confined to my cell, I've just eaten one for second breakfast. I intended to take photos for comparison purposes but I accidentally shovelled the whole thing into my go in 0.47 seconds, so the basic verdict is: pretty damn tasty.

Will take one for the team later and have another one, hopefully slowly enough to get photographic evidence.

They dont seem quite as tooth ache inducingly sweet as the proper ones. But I've not had a proper one for years.

Tell you what, beetle, you send me some of your legit stash, and I'll send you some of my rip off ones, and we'll do a compare and contrast?!

Ps. £1.29 for 6

Trannock wafers?

From Trannock Moor?

Curiously there is a brief mention of Tunnocks on last weeks "No Such Thing As A Fish" podcast.

Some of us may have been eating them wrong ....

The next was written much earlier this morning before the thread was taken over by an poster daring to buy an imposter Tunnocks bar!

Although I am looking forward to the bite by bite photos so that we can compare and contrast!.

T TUNNOCKS LTD

This is the tale of those who are afflicted.

There is a group of women, scattered wide and far
United in our love for a brand of chocolate bar
No imitations will be accepted by this witchy group
No, its only the real ones that make us jump and whoop
Oh, glorious Tunnocks are our sugary saviour
Chocolate and mallow, caramel and wafer
Knowing that aged five or even aged fifty
Snowballs still remain wonderfully sticky

Lovingly made by the Uddingston Staff
The amount we eat is off the graph
Don’t you think we’re a wee bit addicted?

Bugger. there is no S in the T Tunnocks LTD!

its T Tunnock Ltd

will have to sort that out!

or, I could just call it TUNNOCKS and be done with it!

Yeah, everyone calls them Tunnocks, it's not your fault they spelled their name wrong, is it?

I tend to hold one to my mouth, have a bite, chew and wash it down with tea, or coffee. Are we supposed to have them nasally, or something?

According to my local friendly Scot, I am not eating them correctly as I am not eating the marshmallow first, then the biscuity part.

Having eaten the one I photographed in bites I have since reverted to getting the chocolate off first so as to not damage the mallow dome then eating that and finishing with the biscuit.

I was rewarded yesterday with one where the chocolate over the marshmallow had cracked at the base and so came off in one whole round piece leaving a perfect unblemished dome of mallow. It was superb!

It makes for a much more enjoyable treat.

The correct way is to gently smash the chocolate on the top to make a hole and then stick your tongue into it. Once you've scooped/slurped the mallow out, you nibble around the chocolate and then eat the biscuit base in two big bites.

And then have another one.

No...... you eat the chocolate first without disturbing the mallow. This takes some practice 😀

That's how i eat creme eggs, bite enough of the top off to be able to get my tongue/little finger in there! Then only eat the outside once all the insides is gone.

@Waitwhat23 has got the right idea, ideally you smack them off your forehead to break the chocolate. I think it's a tribute to it's birthplace.

Take Two as it was annoying me. (checks it ten times to make sure it's got the right letters in it this time)

This is a tale of Tunnock’s treats

The ones that we eat at all of our meets
Usually, there’s a selection from which to pick
No one has difficulty wolfing them quick
No, it’s so hard to stop as they are so nice
Oh yes to another, no need to ask twice
Chocolate and mallow, caramel and wafer
Knowing there’s snowballs to finish off later

Logs that are large and come in bite size
Tunnocks will be in my hand when I dies
Dark ones as well? Well, there’s a surprise!

Brilliant!

I wonder if Tunnocks are aware of this thread.

Only if an earlier poster has written to them to complain that we are being way to Terfy whilst Tunnocking!

I like to think there are terfs at Tunnocks and they're following the posts and telling each other what's been said. Maybe there's a print out of your poem on the wall in the staff room!
