The Time has Come

Well I must say it's an absolute delight to be able to eat crisps and I don't think there is anything wrong with it at all. My first packet was a delightful Roast Ox flavour by Real Crisps and then of course I had to try all the bizarre flavours doing the Walkers round. I will have to agree that the Onion Bhaji flavour is the best and tastes most like what it should. The builders breakfast is strange and you can definitely taste and smell the egg, I could also taste Sausage and tomato. The others are just really strange flavours and I am not sure I would recommend them at all. The Cajun Squirrel one is OK , but just tastes like curry spices rather than anything else, but then what would you expect them to taste like? At least now I can say that I have the will power to give something up, which I thought I never would lol.

It's the final countdown....

We are in the final week of lent and I know it's gotten to me now. Last night I had a dream that I was eating crisps and worried as I had broken lent. I awoke in a cold sweat just to realise it was just a dream and it was Tuesday, with only 5 days left to go. I am planning on having a BIG HUGE bag of crisps. Any ideas yet on what flavour? Also any views on the new Walkers flavours, is there one I really shouldn't miss? I have heard the Builders Breakfast is good. Woop woop crips binging here I come!!!!!

Lent is almost over woop woop !!!

Well, as I start coming into the last stretch of the mammoth task that came before me to give up crisps, I am pleased to say that the cravings for crisps started kicking in, about a week after I began. You might not think this is a long time but for me it is. I have still not eaten a crisp though, which I am very proud of and can't wait for Easter day when I will pig out on them. I have tried substituting crisps for other things, carrot sticks with a nice dip works well and even better salted popcorn. Nothing else works really :0( The difficulty now being what crisps and what flavour should I choose to break the crisp silent in my mouth and stomach? Any ideas? I long for the array of flavours and the crunchy texture as the wonder that is the crisp will cascade down my throat and swim in the delight of my stomach. I long for the tingle, taste bud explosion with mouthwatering sensation that you get from the salt and vinegar flavour. Or the heady dark aroma and taste of the Steak
