Default Any favourites foods you wont give up even though they have r/0

a number of sins/points?

I love Batchelors super noodles Spicy Thai flavour and have just found out they have around 4 sins! This is not a total disaster if I keep my sins low but I never bother to count them anyway! Ditto I think Safeway pronto pasta has more sins than the other instant pasta and sauce products - however it is hard to work out as they say as made up on packet and packet says to include milk and butter.
but I use only water.

Anyone else carrying on eating something and not worrried how many sins/points/cals/fat grams is in them?

Anything you refuse to give up regardless?

Cheese !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do try and count the points, but let be honest the small bit which I say has 3 points is probably much nearer a 5 or 6

Bounties - could eat a whole sweetie shop and somehow they never ever end up on my journal

Stop talking about chocolate you bu**ers! You are making me hungry, and the Brit shop is a 45 minute drive from here and is probably closed right now anyway. Whilst on the subject of British chocolate, I worked a Flake to be four points, how many does anyone else make it and am I just kidding myself that it was only four? lol

Can't help you there as I don't do points but just to annoy you - flakes are really nice stored in the icebox of your fridge! I used to get a pack of four and do this. I thought I would have one a day but somehow ....well you know the rest!

They used to do a lime sauce as well that I liked but on the rare occasions I have one I have chocolate sauce and nuts. I actually prefer lemon ice cream which you cannot always get from Mr Whippy et al. I have found it from some vans in London. Not (she hastens to add) that I have it that often.

They have sauce on 99's now? I'm impressed, it's starting to sound like a sundae in a cone, with nuts on as well. The last 99 I had just had the baby flake stuck in the whippy ice cream in a cone. It was a hot day and the ice cream dripped down my arm to my elbow and it was blooming wonderful. I really do want one NOW!!!!

Carol, you big Nancy!! When I was in Moscow years ago one December, the soldiers were outside a shop knee deep in snow eating ice cream (I think they were enjoying it I don't think it was part of their training! Now I love Russian ice cream but even I couldn't have had one then, my lips would have turned blue!)
