    SAVE ICE CREAM AND BROWNIES; The brownies need that creamy counterpoint to their otherwise potentially crisp exterior, whilst jelly benefits more from a custard!


    SLAY OR SAVE:

    CRINKLE CUT CRISPS



    or

    CRINKLE CUT CHIPS?

    Save crinkle cut crisps. It just has to be so. They're crunchier and chunkier than normal crisps and if you're looking for 'proper' crisps, it's gotta be these. McCoys are MAN crisps. But yes, I still eat them.

    Save or slay:

    Supermarket own cereal

    Or

    Supermarket own sweets and chocolate

    Save pineapple. Simply because it's actually NICE! Watermelon or any form of melon, nah, no thanks, not for me. I love canned pineapple in syrup. Guilty pleasure.

    save or slay: All muller yoghurts or all ambrosia desserts/custards

    Save Ambrosia!! Muller yoghurts can EASILY be replaced, that tart european-tasting yoghurt is matched by danone and onken already; but that sublime, secret coveted Ambrosia Custard recipe... Imagine life... Solely with BIRDS as your alternative!! PROFOUND SADNESS.

    SLAY OR SAVE:

    DAIRY BOX

    OR

    ALL GOLD?

    Re: Food and Drink: Slay This, Save This!
    Save dem caramel O's. Chocolate Cheerios seem like they'll be a crushing disappointment, but the Dulce de leche cheerios are pretty nice. Plus the hype that came with the new cheerios flavour, WHAT WILL IT BE?! HOW EXCITING!, and to be told it was chocolate, Weetos effectively, made for a sad sad day.

    SAVE OR SLAY:

    THORNTONS CHOCOLATE

    OR

    LINDT CHOCOLATE

    Re: Food and Drink: Slay This, Save This!
    Thorntons. I prefer Lindt, it's true. But I buy it less, it's less affordable, has less variations and if I wanted to try something different or obscure from Lindt, I'd probably have to go online to get it. EFFORT.

    slay or save: marks and spencers or ASDA

    That's fine Tommy, you just see your good friend here jobless. It's okay, honestly, I'll be fine. I don't need wages. Sure, I wont be able to afford to feed myself or my disabled children and my puppies..but I'll get by. MEANWHILE YOU'RE IN M&S SPENDING MY WEEKLY FOOD BUDGET ON A PUNNET OF CHERRY TOMATOES. It's cool.

    Save cakes with a creamy middle, everyyyy time. It actually offers something different to the cake, adds to the texture and taste. Gives that little sweet kick without being overwhelming. Icing upsets and offends me.

    slay or save: Processed cheese or processed meat

    Save processed meat! Processed cheese is ok, dairylea triangle and whatnot, but the burger cheese processed stuff lets it down. Insta-slay. Though children will be so lost without cheesestring fun. I feel like the grinch at christmas.

    Save or slay:

    Seafood sticks

    Or

    Chicken bites? (the Feasters style)

    Re: Food and Drink: Slay This, Save This!
    Is it wrong that your harrowing woe and tantrum didn't incite sympathy but rather a loud BEANO GUFFAW, Melissa?

    Anyway, save seafood sticks!! They're no more or less a "mashed up nonsense" product than the chicken bites, but YE CANNAE CHEESESTRING PEEL THOSE, KIN YE??

    SLAY OR SAVE:

    AMBROSIA RICE

    OR

    AMBROSIA CUSTARD?

    Re: Food and Drink: Slay This, Save This!
    SAVE THE CUSTARD. Because it's Ambrosia, and it's custard. It's like Cadbury and chocolate, Heinz and beans, You get the picture. They just have to be. The rice is good, but there's so many other good varieties. The best I've had recently was Tesco's Rice Pudding with cinnamon and raisins in. Better than the Ambrosia one's I've had. (I hear your horrified cries of dismay, but me and my can o' creamy rice just don't care!)

    SAVE OR SLAY:

    PASTA SHAPES (Loose pasta - shells, bows, frusli etc -now all comes in one shape)

    OR

    CRISP SHAPES (crisps now all come in one shape)

    Save pasta shapes - the different shapes mean that there's loads of different accompanying ingredients possible. However, doritos would still be pretty much the same if circular

    Save or slay:

    Mexican food

    or

    Italian food

    Re: Food and Drink: Slay This, Save This!
    Though I enjoy fajitas and tacos..I have to save italian food. I cannot wave goodbye to pizza, pasta, lasagne, spag bol and the likes. It's just too much a staple of the british culture now.

    slay or save: maryland cookies or foxs biscuits

    SAVE FOX'S. There's so much more range, and their 'chunkie' cookies are AMAZING. Like proper biscuits, with big chocolatey chunks and everything. Maryland are good, or at least they were, until I discovered Fox's. Mini chocolate drops or MEGA CHOCO BOULDERS? No contest. Foxy fo sho.

    SAVE OR SLAY:

    CEREAL BARS

    OR

    BISCUITS

    I'd rather kill myself. OH DANI. Why do this to me? GAH..

    slay biscuits There, I said it. I couldn't do without cereal bars. They're like my own little pleasure. I try every single new variety. I see myself as a master of them, always looking out for them. WATCHING OUT FOR BARGAINS. I swear, one week they're £1 a box, then rocket back up to like £2..you have to be cunning. I'd have to have cookies instead of biscuits.

    slay or save: chocolate or ALL chocolate flavoured things

    Agreed d, "choc flavoured" usually means " vague cocoa powder". Anyway SAVE TOAST.

    Crumpets are exceptional. Delicious. But toast;! Equally delicious but with the potential to be soooo mmuch mooore!!

    toasties! Cheesy beanos! Crumpets can only be crumpets but toast= chameleon!!
