Approved food general discussion part deux

mcallister1

Just got my large order of the 27th- although I realise it wasn't connected to the checkout message...
Really happy with it- lots of packaging around to soak up bumps. but also I am trying to order cases of stuff rather than ones and twos, so that it is ready boxed before it goes in, as problems I've had with bottles/jars/ sachets in the past have been individual packs which are more difficult to pack.
If anyone were to look in my garage just now they would think I had inside knowledge on a future nuclear attack- because I am ready, foodwise at least...
I like the look of the sorbets, the smoothies and the marshmallows- and after huge success with the nescafe sachets at work I have ordered enough for a few weeks supply for desperate colleagues- I could probably name my price for some coffee that doesn't need milk on some days...

Have you received a notification of despatch email and/or had the delivery (or an attempted delivery) yet?
(I placed an order early on Monday 2nd March (a week ago), at which time the web site said the backlog was around a week, as it does now, but have not had an email or phone call from AF yet. )

Has anyone else had a delivery in the last 2 days and if so, when was your order placed?

Just to follow up and update the above, this afternoon (10th March) I received an email DHL Shipment Notification from approvedfood-sales with the reference for my order placed on 2nd March.

We have the Mandarin ones and my Boys (3&6) liked them.

Which ones? I find it easier not to make choices like that..lets just say our frozen dessert needs are more or less covered for the next few months???:p
Discovered today that my DD has been nipping home for college with friends for home cooked lunches with the flax seed nachos- covering them in grated cheese and microing them. I must say I was quite impressed with her culinary skills.
