Title: Orange After Eights
Post by: smurfboy on February 14, 2005, 11:26:47 am

I bought a box of these at Christmas but have only just opened them. I hadn't had any since the previous Xmas, and now I'm totally confused ...

I thought the filling was a pale orange colour, but in my new box it was white, just like regular mint ones. Am I going mad or did the change it?

No. I think it's always been white.

I thought the filling was pale orange too. I remember they tasted like marmalade.

Lady, that seville! Don't be bitter. You should orange to try some. I tang(k) you might like it. If you don't you might tear yorself to shreds when you discover what you are missing.

I like ginger marmalade and that lime jelly stuff, lemon curd, marmite, strawberry jam, peanut butter, philadelphia....anything on toast but no chocolate spreads or anything fishy.

I like crisp sandwiches but crisps on toast seems odd.

I have come to like choc spreads-a loaded pain au chocolat is sublime.

[Is sublemon even better?]

Nutella is the best choccie spread.

I find chocolate spread a bit too much. I think it's because of a French school trip I went on once when I was given chocolate sandwiches in my packed lunch - no kidding, dark chocolate sticks in a baguette. The French are not imaginative when it comes to vegetarians

I like banana on toast, its the best snack.

Crisp sarnies rule, although so do jam coated breakfast muffins. Yummy yummy doo dar.

I am glad im not a vegetarian, I like trotters too much.

Banana on toast is yum. Especially if its on brown/granary bread.
