Hi all

Plamil plain milk chocolate
Sainsburys Nutty chocolate

Say no more. It must just be a girl thing, but love chocolate more now that dairy free.

Yum. Yum.

Chocolate! There's:

Kinnerton
Plamil Mint
Plamil ordinary
Tesco organic
Swiss Organica nutty
Swiss Organica with rice milk
Green and Blacks Maya Gold
Whizzers smarties and mini eggs

Then there's also those nice chocolate cereal bars from Tescos (temporarily run out so can't remember the name), Trufree biscuits: bourbons and chocolate cookies.

I think that covers most of the sweet things I eat!

Whizzers Mini Eggs (I always pop 2 bags in my trolley each time I go to Morrisons, I think if I don't they will stop stocking them - thats my excuse for eating them anyway)

Flapjack sold at Aldi - I bought 4 bars last Sunday Morning thinking they would last a while, guess what - I've only got half of one left.

Fitnesse Apricot Cereal Bars
Ok Cherry & Coconut Cereal Bars
Ruffles raspberry bars - haven't had any since I discovered Whizzers though
Lemon Curd
Golden Syrup
Lemon Meringue Pie

I like the whizzers smarties and mini eggs, they taste like the real thing, the chocolate footballs I find really bitter though.

Although I have found both the smarties and mini eggs make me ill - I think it's the vanilla in them, so I'm only allowed half a packet a day :(

My current favourite (I'm having to prevent myself having two a day!) are the double choc chip cookies by Nana's. They're very large, gorgeously soft, extremely chocolatey and very, very nice. They do other flavours (the raisin and oatmeal is also nice) and a load of non-wheat ones (which I find rather too heavy).

Apart from that, Divine dark chocolate, Sainsburys choc chip freefrom muffins, Swedish Glace caramel ice-cream... I could go on.

Where do you get the double choc chip cookies by Nana from?

We have had some coconut macaroon things that are gorgeous but cant remember who makes them Mother Crumbles maybe?
We have eaten loads of party rings since shakylou mentioned them, by the way I replied to a post of yours earlier shakylou and now i cant find it anywhere. Any ideas?

choc chip cakes bars from tesco are nice i am told. I havent managed to try one yet!
Whizzers and the footballs are popular with mac, and starburst are on his favourite list.

Mac eats loads of fruit. Unfortunatley (joking) he loves blueberries, blackberries and cherries.
have you seen the price of them!!!!!!

Nic, mac loves swedish glace caramel ice crem too. I cant believe I forgot that. He has eaten a tub to himself in abouy 5 days. I think the chocolate flavour is the nicest.

I have to say, I have the sweetest of sweet tooths (teeth?:confused: ) and the caramel is sweeter than the chocolate, which I find not quite rich-tasting enough. The Sainsburys non-dairy caramel swirl ice-cream is similar but perhaps even better - Mac might like that, too. :D

I will be going to sainsburys soon so I will get some of that ice cream. Is there anything eles you buy there that Mac could have? I have just had a brain wave!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am going to get my friend to show me how to do my own file on the computer and i will put in it everything (maybe not everything) that people on this site eat and where they buy it from! And then maybe once a month I will have a major shopping trip and go to all the supermarkets. Lucky for me is that they are all not to far apart and i drive and if I plan it plan right Mac will be at nursery.
I got quite excited then!

I'm assuming that Mac is OK with everything except dairy, hope that's right. Freefrom aisle has:
Sweet William chocolate bar (rice crisp)
two Sainsburys choclate bars (by Sweet William) - plain and almond
some rather nice choc muffins
lots of types of rice and oat milk (though Sainsburys economy soya milk is the cheapest, and that's in the UHT milk aisle)
lots of flapjacks / dried fruit bars (my favourite are the Trek ones)

The freefrom freezer section has two types of ice-cream (caramel and raspberry swirl)
lots of the Good Life products (largely vegan) but unfortunately not the vegeburgers
non-dairy burgers, fish fingers etc (haven't tried them)

The normal freezer section has some gorgeous Swedish Glace 'magnums'.

And the normal chilled milk section has five types of 'fresh' soya milk - I personally go for the low calorie one, but you probably don't want that for Mac.

Only thing I can't find there is plain soya cream.

That's not an exhaustive list, but if there's anything specific you're looking for, let me know. BTW, my Sainsburys is very large (a Savacentre) so yours may not have all of these if its smaller.

Hi Nic.
Just got back from sainsburys. I had Mac with so didnt get chance to look properly but managed to get Swedish Glace magnums. I have seen before in Holland & Barretts and they were about £5.00 for 3 so I didnt get them. They were £2.89 for 6 so we got some. They didnt have any ice cream. Got some bars of "chocalate", some Leather natural fruit strip kind things and some chocolate muffins. Mac was very pleased with our shopping trip until i was packing the shopping. He was stood on the side of the trolley and hiss weight pulled it over on him. I didnt see it i just heard the gasps of horror from other shoppers. Bad mum or what? He didnt hurt himself thank god!
Thanks for your help Nic. I will go back alone next time, probably safer all round.

Bella - glad that Mac's OK, and that my yummy non-dairy sweet things radar is proving useful to others.:)
