Haribo, I defy anyone to just have 1 sweet, one handful isn't enough...Starmix and golden bears seems to just disappear.
Its so bad I don't buy them and walk past them in the supermarket with my eyes firmly on the opposite aisle.

I don't normally go in for airy fairy foodstuffs but if my wife doesn't get me some of this again this Christmas there's gonna be trouble.

Chocolate coveted peanuts. The evil genius of placing them next to the checkout in Wilco...... I
And ginger biscuits. I can do a whole packet with a single cuppa. Lijat green chilli papads.... It's a good job you get enough in a packet to fry a couple each for tea and have enough to test. Like another four or five.

Just when I was about to give up on STW as a home for the terminally argumentative, along comes the best self-help thread for ages.

I was also going to confess to addictive behaviour around salt & vinegar nuts, Sensations lime & coriander poppadoms, pistachios and virtually any Pringles.

Also I don't think anyone has mentioned Mackie's haggis and black pepper crisps? Sooo easy to eat the whole bag in about five mins.

Peanut M&Ms
Sainsbury's honey roast peanut & cashew nut mix
Another Sainsbury's one; they used to do a big bag of dates and pecans which advertised it as 6 servings. This was clearly a lie cos I ate the whole pack in one sitting.

Just off to Sainsbury's...

For me it's 85% chocolate. I've been on a 100g bar a day for the past two months. There I've said it.

Also, I find it very hard to stop eating the whole batch of heavily salted, roasted almonds.

+1 for Gingernuts. Or plain chocolate digestives. Or fig rolls.

Rowntrees Fruit Gums. I'm banned from having them after the girlfriend opened bag on a long drive had one and went for another 5mins later. She found an empty bag and a slightly twitching me in the driving seat.

Fruit shortcake biscuits. Self-imposed ban.

Kellogs Raisin Wheats. Currently on offer at Home Bargains at £1.49 a box. So far been through 8 boxes in two weeks. On the plus side I have no problems on the bog.

Anything that contains marzipan. Especially stollen, bear claws, almond croissants, Bakewell tarts and almond fingers.

If I lived near a French patisserie I would need a restraining order.

Anything on a buffet. I could consume the contents of a savoury buffet in minutes if I wasn't held back by societys need to make us share with others. Found a lovely picture of one with olives, mini burgers, chicken strips, samosas, and breaded prawns. Don't know how to post images though so I am just going to drool over it alone.

Raisins, sultanas, currants. I can buy a 1kg pack to snack out of atwork and can eat the whole lot in an afternoon.
With very unpleasant consequences,
