It's snack time: Cereal or Crisps
 

So I'm told it's a big thing in the UK to eat cereal for snacks, like before bed or mid afternoon or anytime of the day...

I have no concept of why anyone would do this... but I am curious what the general preference is

So ... as the question asks... Cereal or Crisps when you are snacky??

Crisps because people always steal my milk :/

Gotta have my bowl, gotta have cereal.

Poll up... I say Crisps because it's just never been a thing to eat cereal in my life in general

What kind of flat relatively new dusty prairie town do you live in Java?

Everyone eats cereal at bedtime for lunch for tea and for pudding, :fist:

You may eat pontoon or grits or whatever but here in the motherland we love crisps and cereal

Shocking thread

Crisps because I'm lactose intolerant

So also a baiting thread

I don't like Cereal really, but crisps mmmmmmmmm

we even have cereal cafes

I bet every brit or irish forum member eats either cereal or crisps every day of the year

Crisps. I barely eat cereal, never mind as a snack :smug:

I'd rather a yogurt or some fruit. I've gone right off crisps

I'm the Crisps man I'm afraid Cereal lovers.:dance:

bye at crisps winning this so far. Trust Tibb and its takeaway bad diet ways

mainly from the tibb yoof team

smh

:idc:

Why would cereal be considered the better option?

Because it's killer?:think:

milk, roughage and you can add lots of fruit

Cereal if I can be bothered making it.

Otherwise a nice bag of crisp is a delicious substitute.

Oh I see the Tibb dietician is in residence


:fan:

I'm of a very healthy weight ty for the concern x

Cereal, Crisps are gross and makes your fingers smell until you wash them

Cereal >

bye at me being led down the garden path to believe this poll would go the other way :fan:

that was what I was saying..

Cereal is not a healthy food choice imo

I don't know a single person who snacks on cereal so it'd have to be crisps by default.

maybe your just easily led..

:fan:

So bloody wash them you dirty bitch.

Me too also.

Crisps have no nutritional value at all and cereal's full of sugar. Why would you...?

Because they taste nice :hee:

You're weak, Niamh... WEAK I tell ya...

I have shredded wheat with blueberries in it and I put peaches and bananas on it and hey presto its a meal

:hee:

I love blueberries... king of fruits.

I know :fan: although I'm being really good atm, summer is fast approaching and has given me a firm kick in the arse

I went sugar-free for eight weeks and I'm actually under my fighting weight! I followed that diet by Michael Mosley, you know the chap who did the 5-2 fast diet. Made me feel really good. And smug LOL...

I prefer my diet which is based on the Laziness Ratio. You get to teatime and you think "there is no way I am cooking now, waiting on things and the like" so you eat a bowl of cereal and hey presto you dont have to worry about tea and there is less dishes

I may write a book

Oh no, I haven't heard of that, I wouldn't be a massive sugar lover though anyway, it's savoury stuff that are my down fall. I'm just keeping track of my calories really right now, trying not to go over 1200 and doing a 20min run on the tread mill before work

It sounds like you're too fecking lazy to write a book, Trumpet.

wait, i would have to write it?

feck that

It's amazing how much sugar is in stuff... you're not allowed any bread, rice, pasta, potatoes or other root vegetables. They said I'd have a headache at first, and I am prone to headaches... but I felt absolutely fine from day 1. Oh, and you can only have 800 calories a day. It works!

I'm not back to proper running yet because of my leg, but I'm cycling quite a lot.

I'm not eating bread really atm and I could live without pasta and rice but (how irish do i sound) I love potatoes :worry: What did you eat for dinners then, just meat and veg?

Oh yeah forgot about your leg, atleast you can cycle though, I must get my bike out soon too now the weather is turning a bit

Mess at having cereal during the day at like 3pm

What kind of caveman mentality

There's a whole menu in the book, but it's things like 'jewelled peppers with pomegranate seeds'... who's got time for that? So I had mostly meat, fish, eggs, leafy veg, a little cheese... It was only eight weeks and it really was fine, I wasn't hungry. I did miss spuds though, so maybe I am part-Irish after all!
