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.

Tea, Tunnocks and a natter

CervixSampler · 06/08/2023 12:50

Off to Leicester Square with my Tunnocks in my satchel.

The rain and the weird flags don't matter
When I'm there
I don't care
Because Tunnocks are what matters
While we chatter
And we natter
About the Women’s things that matter
Because we care

BREAKING NEWS....

News just in.

My Tunnocks have been eaten.

I have photos of the culprit.

Part of their disguise had also been recovered.

Please contact me with any leads

Just received another photo of the culprit!

Personally i think they are just trying to wind me up now.

I'd pay good money for sunnies like that.

REWARD:

Packet of tea cakes for any information that leads to the the quick capture of this most despicable of people.

Do you think Starbucks realise what they have done? I couldn't resist it.

Waitrose didn't disappoint.

I went to Waitrose in Eldon Square (Newcastle) on Friday and was disappointed to see that they've closed.

SirVixofVixHall · 06/08/2023 17:51

Good old Waitrose.
I do live in hope of Gluten free versions, but I suppose that would mean Tunnocks getting them manufactured elsewhere.
I find a snowball layered on top of a GF Chocolate digestive biscuit makes a good sub for a tea cake .

Look at the innards of this thing of beauty. The clean lines of that diamond patterned wafer. I like to try and separate the layers. It doesn't tend to be successful.

In London today we went in the Harry Potter shop and bought two pairs of earrings for my daughters. They are a present from their little brother so that we can all have feminist ears. Ds now wants his ears pierced. He's 8 so I've says not until he's older. He gets enough grief for his long hair so I dread to think what would happen if he got his ears pierced. He has a very pretty face with amazingly long eyes lashes and is often mistaken for a girl. He never has a meltdown about it. He either corrects them (or I do,) nicely, or just mentally shrugs and doesn't bother because it doesn't matter if the person on the till in a shop got it wrong.

I was very proud to see an empty 8 pack of Tunnocks wafers in my daughter's camping bag when she emptied it out tonight.

Hmmmm the thot plickens!

On a different thread...

Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis · Today
... Hopefully by the time I’ve made a cup of tea and grabbed my Tunnocks clothes...

I may be being closer to the identity of the Tunnocks clothed eater!

Boiledbeetle · 07/08/2023 18:10

And now with my stocks seriously dwindled I'm being tormented with the photos above of Tunnocks in the wild, Tunnocks in the aisles and Tunnocks party tricks!

IT'S NOT FAIR

Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis · 07/08/2023 19:33

Ha ha I realised too late that I’d forgotten to @ clothes so it read like that. They’ve not come back to the thread yet so I’m on my 25th cup of tea, 462 teacake and 43rd caramel. I may need to give in soon. It’s a good job I’m on tea and not tea gin.

IcakethereforeIam · 07/08/2023 19:38

Grin I'm so happy. Just been to Waitrose and got a pack of Tunnocks dark chocolate wafers. I've hidden them down the side of the breadbin. I'm telling you lot just in case I forget what I've done with them and I start blaming the Tun-nicker that's been plaguing @Boiledbeetle

Boiledbeetle · 07/08/2023 19:53

I watched my dark Tunnocks wafers drive off in the back of my sisters car yesterday, along with some snowballs, caramel logs and a solitary tea cake.

So it's looking like the culprit may either be @Somanyquestionstoaskaboutthis who seems to be consuming vast quantities of product today, or my sister, so far.

It's obviously not @IcakethereforeIam as she's just bought some dark wafers... Unless.. She's trying to throw me off her trail.

Boiledbeetle · 07/08/2023 20:02

And cake is back on the suspect list.

SpikyHatePotato · 07/08/2023 23:04

Folks lacking in Tunnocky delights need to head to Scotland! In the (quite small) co-op in this (quite rural) town, they have milk and dark wafers, milk and dark teacakes, caramel logs, and snowballs. And tubs of mini caramel wafers.

Good old Waitrose.

What? For closing down in Eldon Square? I'd have to go to fucking Ponteland and navigate through hordes of Newcastle Uinited Wags for a Gressingham Duck, or whatever! I HATE you!

I do live in hope of Gluten free versions, but I suppose that would mean Tunnocks getting them manufactured elsewhere.

I wonder if they'd be any good? I work with a girl who's coeliac and she let me try some gluten free cake and bread. Crikey, it was terrible. I say girl, she's 35 and runs a lifeboat, for goodness sake.

  • I was trying to find you a gluten free tea cake recipe. I found this one below but I was rather put off by the 115g of chickpea brine (aquafaba)

I have no idea why the above is in a bullet point but i can't be arsed to try and figure it out!

I think they are gluten free, but as someone who isn't affected by gluten issues I wouldn't really know!

BUT do they have the incredibly, even more than dark Tunnocks products, rare wafer creams?

If so, prepare your spare room. I will be arriving with a medium sized suitcase and three cats.

There's a little Waitrose in Jesmond which seems nearer to Eldon Square than Ponteland does

87 - 89 Osborne Road
Newcastle Upon Tyne
Tyne and Wear
NE2 2AN

But geography is not my area of expertise, with a special aversion of anything after driving over the Tyne bridge (arghh flashbacks to driving round Newcastle trying to find the place I was going to audit, or rather the entrance of the place I was going to audit. Who puts an office building on the middle of a bloody roundabout?)

However you may find a closer one below

Ah, of course! Right across the road from my wife's dentist and a couple of miles closer to me.

Ta!

CervixSampler · 08/08/2023 10:46

I've had abdo terrible pain and accompanying sulphurous emissions since last night and wonder if it's Tunnocks withdrawal syndrome? Ive not had one since Sunday night. I've felt quite poorly. I haven't eaten or drunk anything out of the ordinary to otherwise explain it. I must go out and replenish my supplies.
