Yep and the packs of 6 are fine for me as three is always the magic number eaten over two sittings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was one of those “ask your kids these questions and post the answers”. Guess what, she’s an amazing mum who mostly loves to eat healthy food, spend time with her family and help others. They all love her billions. My kids would probably would have answered , Complete bastard always stealing our noses and embarrassing us in restaurant's by sticking chips either side of his mouth and trying to convince us he's a Walrus .. he even stole Santa's mince pie and milk at Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other crumpets are even worth bothering with in my experience. Surprisingly, yes. I say 'surprisingly' because their bread is bloody awful. Second best crumpets are Morrisons bog standard ones (I tried their super-duper 'The Best' ones, and had to throw them away). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might've had some from Morrisons shaped as Christmas trees or something, and apart from the pointless novelty I don't remember them being offensively bad like Hovis (do they even bother making them anymore?). Had some from M&S on the way out of Brum airport recently and they were pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted January 16, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 16, 2023 I treated myself to some m&s sourdough crumpets the other week. Thought they would be lovely. They weren’t. They were awful. Warburtons can’t be beaten 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted January 16, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 16, 2023 Controversial opinion - toasters are **** shit. Putting crumpets in a toaster should be banned by the Geneva Convention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) It's those conveyor-belt toasters you've got to watch out for. Bastards, every last one of 'em.

GarethRDR Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Are they materially different under the grill than toasted? Is this some great truth I've been missing all the years, that apparently I'm not eating crumpets right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I am willing to "correct" my behaviour, if convinced. Finding out I'm some sort of bastard is not a new experience for me, this will just have been the first instance where that revelation was bread-based.

Popular Post chrisp65 Posted January 16, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2023 A grille just does one side, a toaster can do one side or both. Toaster is the boss in this scenario. Just like when a vegan is honour bound to tell everyone they are a vegan, I am now duty bound to tell you I have a Dualit toaster. It is **** immense. I thought toasters were toasters were toasters until I got this thing. I mean, it really needs a different title, it’s a kitchen toasting hub and toasted products satisfaction engineer. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
