Yeah. We're not so shit hot at counting down this way

"Only three simple ingredients"

- chia seeds
- coconut milk
- vanilla bean
- cinnamon

Maybe only three of those are simple.

I liked the LU chocolate and I now going to have to try the Ritz one.

There's a low calorie chocolate sauce/liquid hot chocolate (not full of artificial sweeteners either!) call Choc Shot. I haven't tried it yet but my SW group were raving on about it.

Has anyone here had it?

When I was out in Maidstone, my friend introduced me to a drink. I have no idea if it has a name but it was basically you do a measure of Baileys and then put a shot of Chambord in it. It sounds awful but it was bloody delicious. I will be drinking it mostly for breakfast now.

Ooh. That chocolate looks good. I tried the Green and Black's lemon chocolate at the weekend and that is good.

Is that similar to a brain haemorrhage?

I have just discovered this is delicious on crumpets. They do a crunchy version too (as opposed to smooth, not made out of Crunchies).

[Tabitha]

I saw that in a supermarket last week and couldn't decide if it would be delicious or vile.

[Duophonic]

The crunchy one is AMAZING. Really tooth achingly sweet eaten straight from the jar but lovely on toast or crackers.

[Ella77]

Are the bits bits of biscuit or bits of something else?

[Duophonic]

Bits of the biscuit

[absley]

I had speculoos chocolate yesterday - it was this milk chocolate bar with tiny crunchy bits of biscuit in it. my verdict was yuck, d's was yum - I imagine we'd have a similar split on the spread.

[Luna]

I like the look of that chocolate, Abs!

I asked this on the health food thread but no one answered so I may as we'll show myself up here now after what Est posted, what actually are Chia seeds?! I'm losing sleep over this now

[Derek Nimmo]

There's this thing called google...

They're a superfood, and have omega 3. That is the full extent of my knowledge

[Texaco Shirley]

There's this thing called google...

Does it grow from chia seeds?

[Derek Nimmo]

Maybe so Tex, who knows?

[Ella77]

Oh honestly Jude! Asking 3 times rather than just looking it up .

[Estrella]

I've discovered these. They're pretty amazing. I'm having to exercise a lot of self restraint to not eat the whole packet though!
