They have giant chocolate buttons :dizzy: ?

Doughnut - I haven't seen those ones before but I LOVE flapjacks (surprise, surprise!) so I'll keep an eye out for them, thanks :)

Bits - re the flapjacks - I have to say that they are so like the real thing that if it weren't for the depressing packaging you wouldn't know you weren't eating a full on fat laden effort. They're quite hard to find though and I only ever seem to find them in Sainsburys sava centres - the massive ones. Went to the largest asda in the world the other day and they didn't have them. They're normally somewhere near the bread which I've never got the hang of but there you go.

Lou, Clyde - we have to stop this it's not good for us and I'm beginning to get hungry :dizzy:

lou1978 01-25-2007 05:23 PM

yup..... i know it can set ppl off talking about it....

sorry!!!

Doughnut 01-25-2007 05:27 PM

Don't worry about it mate - to get my hands on chocolate buttons i would have to get into a car and find somewhere that's open. I have a will of iron. I do. OK - it's really, really cold outside :o

Clydegirl 01-25-2007 07:21 PM

It's a treat for me to get chocolate buttons. I would borrow them from my youngest and I would have to drive to the next town where the British shop is. Then pay a great deal of money for them.

OK not a great deal but a lot more than I would pay back home.

OMG - I am SO lucky that I don't much like chocolate! Its one of those things that I'll eat if its around but I wouldn't think to buy unless its for someone else or for a special occasion (like Christmas).

My problem is cheese... and fresh crusty bread - but I've got the bread addiction more or less under control - so I'm left with the cheese problem.

Why don't they do rehab centres for cheese 'n' chocolate????

lou1978 01-26-2007 05:20 AM

ooooo maybe were onto something,,,

i think we should have ration books .... like in the war... then u cant buy it coz you dont have the tokens .... they shoul have ur name on & id checked @ the tills... any shop found breaking the rules is in big trouble......

I've given up Pepsi Max (aka battery acid) since Jan 2nd and I'm 25 days clean from my Coke habit! :lol:

I'm pondering cutting down sugar to help reduce cravings so I will have a good excuse when we go out 4 dinner...

lou1978 01-26-2007 05:41 AM

ive stopped drinking the brown stuff... i cant sleep @ night... ( i dont drink tea or coffee.. odd person that i am!) so i just drink water now if we go out... cheep date tho !... hehe

Sarah Ann 01-26-2007 06:29 AM

Same with me - I don't drink any caffeinated or carbonated drinks nowadays. I stopped drinking cola when I saw how shiny it brought up an old 2p piece - makes you wonder what its doing to your insides!

I drink decaff tea or coffee, herbal teas or water nowadays. Water with a twist of lime is nice.

If you want to sleep well I can recommend the Twinings camomile, honey & vanilla.

I've decided.... I'm gonna go cold turkey on the cheese... I can't cope with knowing its in the fridge. I've frozen what's leftover in portions so DH can take a frozen lump work with him for his packed lunch - hopefully it should defrost by his meal break otherwise it'll be a bit yucky. :lol:

My downfall is the big bags of maltesers, thanks to the TV add's I've convinced myself that they are mostly air. Unfortunatly my belly and bum give lie to that one:mad:

Oh and if there is cheese in the house......................

Sarah Ann 01-26-2007 09:52 AM

Ooohhhhh another cheese-lover!

I've managed to kick the malteser habit. :drool: (love that honeycomb centre). They were very instrumental in DH and I getting together so we always used to have a box or three in the house.

Y'know - I keep seeing the title of this thread on the list and it reminds me of how nice cold roast turkey is... so I wonder why withdrawal from something (presumably an unpleasant experience) is called 'cold turkey'.

Yeah - its a dim question - but I'm allowed cos I'm blonde! ;)

lou1978 01-27-2007 04:16 PM

ive often wondered!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_turkey

"going cold turkey may be extremely unpleasant, but not life-threateningly dangerous".....
mmm wonder if they have researched chocholate & cheese????
