betty Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I'm with Cooperlola and Clair. As much as I like (or should I say love) chocolate, creme eggs I have not liked since childhood. They are soooooooooo sickly!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gardian Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 To be recommended: 'Ty-Two'.It's a 5 or 6 pack of 2 x 'Twix'- type bars from Leader Price (so costs buttons). Excellent, especially if preceded by a home-made mince pie and a cuppa at about 16.30.By the way, the French don't seem to go for the old mincies, do they? My neighbour nearly threw up when he took a sniff at one of OH's !! Happily she wasn't offended, but it had the same effect as the Christmas Pudding. He much prefers a nice dose of Museau au Vinaigrette (pork snout). Vive la difference! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clair Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 I have tried mince pies, but the taste of so much sugar is just not for me.My teeth shiver with fear at the mere thought of biting into one! [+o(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 No creme eggs for me thank you but you've now got me thinking about caramel eggs made by Rowntree I think? I'm back in England at the weekend so I'll look out for them. Just when I'd got over my cravings for parsnips, and crumpets, along comes something else.........

londoneye Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 My French neighbour grovelled and begged me to buy him a christmas pudding last time I was in UK, after having tried one at our house last christmas. Of course I did buy him one, as thankfully you seem to be able to buy them all year round now. Anyway, as he doesn't have a microwave I handed over pudding and explained the steaming method of cooking. He looked at me as if I were mad, but went off to set xmas pudding a cooking. Anyway, after about half hour he came back to our house to have a cup of coffee and report that all was well with pudding. Time passed and I reminded him he should check the water levels in bottom of pan, explaining why. No need he said I filled it right up to top. But, I said it will all slosh over the pudding, I told you just a bit of water in bottom. Oh he said, I thought I must have misunderstood you ... come on I will show you how I am cooking it. Well, you've guessed it, I rushed around to his house to find the pudding, having been taken out of all packaging, bubbling merrily away in a huge pot of boiling water. Needless to say it had pretty much disintegrated, and I left him straining it through a sieve and trying to press the bits back into pudding shape !!!!!!!!!! So funny, but he still insisted it tasted good.Anyway, sorry, off topic - he also loves mince pies now he has been introduced to them ... and shortbread ..

betty Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Sorry but don't like mince pies nor shortbread. Am definitely more a savoury food person although I have started eating more chocolate than of late but I think that's my hormones playing up!!
