    Product of oven chips? Slightly confused... If you mean potato products, they Potato Smiley Faces, if you mean chips, I'd say Crinkle Cut Oven Chips.

    I had a light dessert here recently, was like a pancake with brownie pieces some chocolate sauce and ice cream. I loved it, I never usually go for desserts as I'll feel bad after but this was guilt free and TASTY If a little small...

    Favourite pizza restaurant chain (pizza hut, pizza express, ASK etc)

    Hmm. Not a huge fan of pizza chains really. Definitely not ASK, they're overpriced and the food is awful. Pizza hut is okay I guess. I like Pizza Express but I only ever have pasta when I go there... I'll say Pizza Hut.

    Favourite restaurant to eat at?

    Can't really pick a fave, but recently I've really loved the Toby Carvery. The meat is really nice and the range of veg is epic, making for a not too unhealthy meal that tastes great!


    Favourite bagel filling?

    I try to avoid bagels if I can - they're deceptively more unhealthy than they let on. Plus the hole in the centre doesn't lend itself well to soft fillings!!

    But my favourite filling would have to be Pastrami and mustard. Due to the doughy almost dense brioche-like structure of the bagel, a strong-tasting salt beef - ie Pastrami - plus horseradish blast of mustard - create a perfect dichotomy of filling and breadage.


    FAVOURITE AND WHY OF: PICKLED FOOD?

    Pickled red cabbage. Because I literally eat it at some point EVERY day. I do rate a good gherkin though too, always the one to opt for a 'wolly' at Fish and Chip shops. Anything but pickled egg!

    Favourite and why of: Chinese style sauces (sweet and sour, beef and black bean)

    My favourite Chinese sauce, you actually mentioned!! Oyster and Black Bean sauce is my favourite as it is deliciously salty, dark and simultaneously light and subtle enough to let you taste the beef/chicken it usually coats; unlike more jam-like Chinese sauces that are purposely so overpowering in taste stakes that it totally masks whatever you're eating.


    What's your favourite and why of: MARS BRAND CHOCOLATE (MARS, SNICKERS, BOUNTY ETC)?

    TWIX. I love Twix, they're so underrated but for me there isn't a nicer chocolate bar. Biscuit, chocolate and caramel is a winning combination.

    Favourite and why of food to eat in the cinema?

    My favourite food to eat in the cinema is: CHEWITS!

    Sounds unconventional, but popcorn is too noisy and you always have WAAAAY too much - ice cream or hot dogs are inevitably eaten before the trailers end, and bags of chocolate are totally gorged upon making you feel like a total pig for eating a 600-700 calorie "share bag" in an hour and a half. Chewits on the other hand aren't noisy whatsoever, keep your mouth occupied for a long time, and are TASTY AS HELL!





    What's your favourite, and why, of CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM LOLLIES (on sticks)?

    Almond magnum. A delicious milk chocolate with almond coating over creamy ice cream make this my favourite. It's The only magnum I'll eat.



    What and why is your favourite:

    PRODUCT FROM THE ICECREAM MAN?

    SCREWBALLS! Probably not even for the taste, in fact, I can't remember what they even taste like. Did they have flavours? I'm thinking it may have been a ripple kind of vanilla. BUT THE BUBBLEGUM at the bottom. Plus the fact, I'm not sure I see them commonly elsewhere? It just reminds me of being a kid.

    Favourite PIZZA TOPPING and why

    Seafood! So anchovies, tuna and mushrooms etc. To me it makes it taste less greasy and is so tasty! Anchovies on pizza is meant to be for me

    Probably a sandwich. A nice healthy sandwich with thick bread, tasty meat, salad and some tantallising sauce. That's what I call a nice quick healthy meal.

    Favourite Hula hoops flavour?

    Mikado DAIM..because I can have like, 20 of them, for the value of an average chocolate bar.

    CHOCOLATE-ONLY share bags (when I say CHOCOLATE ONLY I mean, either Twirl Bites, Giant Buttons, or Galaxy Counters, something like that).

    They're lovely and decadent, don't make much noise, and should you steal ae fond kiss, well... let's just say it's a bit more pleasant than if they'd been eating Frazzles.


    FAVOURITE AND WHY, of CANNED MEAT (not fish)?

    I'd probably go (if spaghetti hoops and sausages aren't allowed) with Chilli from a tin or Beef Raveloi if that's allowed? Meatballs are also pretty good

    Favourite meringue-based dessert?

    You never gave any reasons though, Dani!!

    As for your Meringue based dessert....


    Why,that would have to be a CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT MERINGUE ROULADE!
