Couldn’t even manage one sweet! Classic mumsnet sanctimonious eating.

I absolutely love this thread by the way. So nice to see it’s not just me rolling my eyes (but also unable to look away).
Well I hope she is getting her ducks in a row and getting ready to LTB. She cant be expected to remain married to man who ate sweets.

I'm not ashamed to say I'd give it a good go.

My ex sister in law once couldn't finish a small pack of Maltesers or a Mars bar in one go and would stretch them. I can do a grab bag in one film. People get all worked up that it's not healthy but in relation to the rest of my diet and exercise and lifestyle,nits perfectly acceptable and ok

Jelly sweets make me feel nauseous, especially green ones. Turkish Delight is ok though and actual jelly. Those cherry Haribo are minging.

Green jelly babies are the devil’s snot.

I could eat my own body weight in chocolate, ice cream or crisps though.

These poor blokes really can’t have anything can they

I don’t like the fizzy ones because they make my teeth furry but I could absolutely smash a whole tub of normal haribo in one go

Poor man. He ate some leftover Haribou and his wife has started a thread to mock him. Nice woman.

What is it with the competitive eating, what do they get out of this? I notice it with many influencers as well, either boasting about the massive salads or the minimal amount of a fucking gummy bear they manage to heat before being absolutely filled to the brim.
I don't know anybody in real life who would go on and on about that? Sure, I myself don't like jelly sweets myself that much, but give me crisps or a croissant or chocolate and you better bet I eat it. And they even do the same about the eating habits of their strapping sons and birdlike daughters. Are they projecting some sort of eating disorder on them? That would actually be pretty nasty for the kids.

But any of us can go on there and make up shit like that.

I would bet my many mansions and my sixty six figure salary that the vast majority on there are making stuff up as they go along.

Anyone seen the post where the woman has won £1mil and is asking if she should give her ex 10k (she is remarried)

I'm just currently reading this. Can't figure out if it's real or not. I'm definitely on the side where she shouldn't give ex the money.

She ate one whole sweet! Wow, what a fat cow. A jelly baby lasts me a week. No wonder there’s an obesity crisis.
