What's made you grumpy today?

[captainkurtz]

Disappointed.  As an evening biscuit it takes some beating.  Much better than kitkat, club, pickup or the dreadful blue ribband.

What about a twix......?

That's more of a chocolate bar than a biscuit, though.  Even the small ones - it doesn't feel like something I'd want of an evening.

Sorry to  come across as full of evangelical zeal but since the heart scare I've really cut back on sugar.  If it had been invented today it would be banned I'm sure.

It's the cause of so much ill health.

Diabetes, heart disease, obesity, teeth cavities, the list goes on.  So if changing recipes keeps people away from chocolate and biscuits etc, this can only be a good thing.

Keep it up Mars, Cadbury etc etc.

Sugar = food for cancer

Good point David!

Anything scarce in nature is what we seem to crave. Thing is: there's a reason why it's scarce, large quantities are not good for you.

So when was sugar invented? Would you like to ban fruit?

The root cause of so much ill health is lack of self control. Everything in moderation, that's what I say - except red wine and dark chocolate digestives

You need to be careful with fruit and juicing it will certainly spike your insulin levels to a high degree. Eating it whole is better but as you say moderation is key.
 
EDIT: In fact orange juice isn't much better for you than coca cola!

Have to tried running Vaseline on the pole...ooer, missus.

Yo sushi - every time I go, they're underrated and underprepared and the prices are sky high.  And got home and they've skipped 2 of the items that were ordered.  And it was cold.  Scathing complaint made online.  Hopefully they'll send me a compensatory voucher...

Isn't sushi meant to be cold?

We don't get squirrels in our garden but if we did, I'd shoot them with an air rifle. As long as it's quick and the pellet doesn't leave your property, it's legal (assuming you only retire the invasive grey ones).
