Celery is the devil's food!

I agree... Primula is nice on almost ANY decent bread.... (or if you must, toast)... But Celery? Thats kinky!

Ooh good one.. used to love that as a kid but Mum stopped supplying... Now you make me want some... 40 years later

Been eating it since I was a kid too. The recipe is still the same, absolutely love it on toast. Nothing quite like it!

For some reason it makes me think of taramasalta which I love but rarely have due to the fat content.

On hot toast it is divine though!

Ben & Jerry's Caramel Chew Chew - perfection in a pot

Aldi wine gums, they're half the price and twice as nice than Bassett's.

Taramasalata is one food that makes me vomit.

Onion and garlic is my favourite dip. Like a bit of houmous too

yea the official ones are kinda meh, the tesco ones are pretty nice too but a bit oily to touch.
morrisons ain't bad either, seems all the supermarket own brands beat the real deal

When it comes to chewy sweets, I bloody love Percy Pigs, especially the cola ones.

Jelly bean factory or Jelly Belly?

Who’s the winner?

You ever played the jelly bean spinner game where you don’t know if the bean is nice or revolting?

Calzone verdure, no way am I a vegetarian by a long stretch, but I love the
peppers, aubergine, and spinach in a veggie calzone.

Island Punch is my favourite, followed by coconut, very cherry, hot cinnamon and green apple. Though are some flavours in the normal range - not the BeanBoozled ones where each colour has two flavours (peach or fart), which are horrible for me. Bubble gum, toasted marshmellow and green tea. The latter is of a similar green to the green apple. Thinking it was my favourite and is was foul.

Fruit gums, salt and vinegar crisps and pizza. Goddam.
