Our favourite snacks

Unread post by The Tinker »

I seem to have developed an obsession for Cheesy Wotsits and now have to limit myself to one pack a day! Does anyone else have a favourite snack they cant do without? I may have to hoard some for my next cruise!

I think I may be addicted to Walkers Baked Cheese n Onion Crisps ... :shh:

If I buy a bag of 6 they are gone in three days max ... but ... if I don't buy them then I don't miss them at all.

:crazy:

Nuts - any nuts, salted, chilli coated, plain, the more the better. And olives - but they must be green and if possible stuffed with garlic, lemon or pimmento.

One of my favourite healthy options ;) from Morrisons.

Good selection and not over oily or salty. I particularly like the roasted almonds :thumbup:

You will have to post me some as surprisingly I don't live near an Aldi - have plenty of tescos, morrisons, waitrose, sainsburys, lidl and co-op but no Aldi as yet. Would be a 30 mile round trip so will stay with Walkers for now :relaxed:

Scrambled Eggs with Cheese on toast. Really it's McVities Palin Chocolate Digestive Biscuits, but we daren't buy them because I am addicted and can't stop once the packet is open. M&S Really Chocolatey Biscuits they are if anything worse.

Anything with chocolate and you can't go too far wrong. However my real treat is Caramel chocolate shortbread, otherwise known as millionaire's shortbread up here. There is a little tea shop in Uldale (Mae's if anyone's interested) which makes its own and it is absolutely magnifico although I dread to think how many calories it packs in. It's well worth travelling to.
I also love crisps, cheese, and salted peanuts, anything savoury so am very easily tempted.
I was taught to be cautious

When had to start a low sodium diet I really missed savoury snacks. But I've now found M&S No Salt crisps, and I could easily eat a big bag in one go.

Marks and Spencer's Square Crisps and Lindor individual round chocolates - not together! The Lindor chocolates are so yummy, inside there is a wonderful squidgy truffle like filling - very tempting to eat more than one!

Unfortunately, I am very easily led and Stephen has led me astray -- today I bought 2 packets of these salted nuts whilst I was in Morrisons. If I put on too much weight through eating too many of them, then he will be in serious trouble. :thumbdown:

Nice though aren't they Maureen :thumbup:

As much as I like them I only have them as a treat now and again.
