I liked the oakhurst scotch egg

I think every other bugger must have too as I could find hide nor hair of them in the store!

It’s funny how much the stores vary. The oakhurst range in my local was untouched! I saw people lingering and looking but moving on

Were there scotch eggs in the Irish stores?

Hardly anything in the Oakhurst fridge in mine just now. There was a mac and cheese in a blue box in the freezer where the fish is. Bought a frozen 3 fish roast, Haddock, Cod and Salmon, £6.99, for my Christmas dinner as I am not bothering much as I am having mine in a hotel next week.
The Christmas Chocolate isle was almost empty but the staff pulling pallets of it from the store so expect them to be out tomorrow.

When I was there just before lunch time it was OK but my friend told me it was "rammed" at 1 PM - Why.?

Was the Madagascan custard with the rest of the Oakham stuff as I never saw it?

Yes it was, and it was lovely!

I know you guys said not to bother but I found those pistachio balls at Lidl today and bought them. I think they’re ok but taste more like hazelnut than pistachio to me

I am absolutely devastated to learn that the blonde chocolate caramelised pecans from Aldi are honey nuts. WHY? The obsession needs to die!!!

No hint of vom for you?

 

[Sleep_deprived]

I'll riot..You can join me... Then day trip up North or to UK Aldi

unfortunately, there is none of those nuts anywhere near me. Im guessing we don’t get the good stuff again went in all excited, came out ready to kill someone

I just ate another one to make sure Nope, no hint of vom. But I'm not in the UK so maybe they are produced somewhere else

Good, I'm genuinely glad because what we got is a horror show of an item.

Ive had the lidl balls and just found they tasted very plain, abit nutty but nothing too pistachio. Ive got two boxes of the Lindt pistachio balls for christmas though.

I also had two boxes of those. But now I only have one…oops

 

[mummy_3]

Im keeping them safe in my christmas snack bag. I have 2 bags for life with bits stashed away. Not sure when Its being cracked into but with 3 kids in the house, it wont last for long I had to restrain myself when I went to the o2 arena recently and popped into the lindt outlet!

 

[missaustraliaaddict]

What are the pistachio Lindors like? I haven't tried them yet but want to

 

[mummy_3]

They are nice, abit sweet for me but Iv really cut down my sweet treats this year. Alot nicer then the lidl ones, the lidl ones just taste plain and bland to me. Lindor are always lovely creamy chocolate

 

[missaustraliaaddict]

Thanks. I tried the new limited edition shortbread ones, they're lovely

 

[mummy_3]

Ooh I got one box of those from the outlet for my partner and had one, they were nice. Not seen them in any stores/supermarkets though

 

[missaustraliaaddict]

Tesco has them I think
