What's yours? I am very taken with twiglets currently. This was a surprise as I have never been overly fussed about them in the past!

OLIVES!!! I buy huge jars of plain ones from Sainsbury's then mix them with chilli oil, or garlic oil - I've also mixed them with just plain virgin olive oil and cayenne pepper - mmm. As a treat I sometimes buy the ready mixed ones - but they work out a bit pricey compared to mixing your own. They are fab! OH likes the ones stuffed with garlic cloves but they scare me a bit, they look like eyeballs in the jar...........:skull:

I think olives are an acquired taste..I find them a little salty but do make an effort to continue trying them

I acquired the taste a long time ago ... I like them stuffed with anchovies or garlic or just plain with the stones in. I also like tapenade, which is olive paste, on ryvita. But Skib has just told me olives are highly calorific

Tesco's owm make peanut butter and caramel 'cornetto'. Discovered them last week, and at 250 calories a pop I really wish I hadn't. They are soooooo scrummy.

Flying saucers!! I picked up some in asda the other week on the kids 3 for £1 deal and have had a couple of bags since... Although it is a bit like buying a bag of air...

Also like olives stuffed with garlic, I get them from lidl Trewsers and they are ok.

Nope it's a grain which is used as an alternative to rice & pasta. It's much healthier because its full of protein & has all 8 amino acids in the grain. It's about £3-4 for a 500g bag. It's really nice trews
