Nostalgic about sweets. Try the above link.
Pink Panthers and Space Dust hmmmmm
I was craving fruit and nut bars this morning but that's been overtaken by condensed milk...."must not go by the shop on the way home must not go by the shop on the way home"
silly question: you get fruit and nut, you get whole nut but why don't you get whole fruit? (I know you get choccy raisins but they're a poor substitute to a chunky bar of chocolate) - I reckon I could quit my job and "invent" whole fruit and hopefully retire on the profits - retiring at 25, now that would be good!!!
anyone in yorkshire got info on roocrofts nut milk squares? - bought once on a trip to sylvia plaths grave and never matched.
Anyway I'm going to be good - finish work at 4 and go for a quick run and hopefully be home by 5 (before all the tea time traffic starts along with the beeps, whistles and general abuse) afterwards we're having a chinese carry out - fat and health wise is chicken satay acceptable ?ideally I'd love sweet & sour but the batter and frying part frightens me too much)Back to the topic - what about chicklets - chewing gum from Spain/Portugal.
Can you resist the Fussells pull?
Bet you can't
why is it you never crave the stuff that's good for you - i.e how many people have you met who "must have" an apple?
Fussells, Barkles? Carnation, surely! Gillian, if your supermarket is a decent-sized Sainsbury's or Tesco, get dulce de leche instead. Really! It's gorgeous. And possibly the only foodstuff of which I can honestly say that I like it but couldn't eat a whole one.
Tim, I am going to pretend to be a foodie now and go around getting sniffy because you can only get Argentinian dulce de leche here - unless anyone knows different...
I remember a bar called "5-4-3-2-1" which was heavily promoted as being something special in Scotland because it was being introduced there ahead of the rest of the UK. I think it was just a dust-dry two-finger chocolate-coated wafer biscuit with a sprinkling of nut-shavings.

Didn't they use the Manfred Mann's hit 5-4-3-2-1 to advertise it??
I'm sure in Ireland they used to do a 'whole fruit' bar but can't remember what it was called.
I've NEVER had condensed milk. Or dulce de leche.
Am I missing something?
Missing something? Condensed milk - no, it's only fit for cooking with (I use it for home-made bounty bars). Dulce de leche - definitely.
I'll check it out as I'm popping into Tesco on the way home.
On a completely different note, I see that Majestic Wine are doing 25% off Penfolds wines.
I'm sooo tempted to go get a mixed case.

Certainly not junket tips..
..'great junket I have eaten'...??
No, doesn't ring right.
The wine you buy in France for 20p a litre tastes delicious in the gite, but turns into antifreeze during the channel crossing.
Bulgarian red champagne is minging.
Just because it tastes sweet and there are flies floating in the bottle doesn't mean that your neighbour's home-made viburnum and aubergine wine won't get you drunk.
Still hungry, obviously!
