    Just seen turkey & stuffing scented candles in Aldi... reduced now

    They also had Christmas pudding & brandy butter scented candles which just smell like mulled spice. Fine for the shoeboxes @ 79 pence. (Half price) actually smell rather good
    I'd rather eat those than the cheesy mince pies.
    Oh fine, we'll do a swap !I fancy cheesy mince pies- but not bacon scented candles!!!

    The  pigs in blankets scented candles   
    Coop had PiB crisps in their irresistible range... not sure they were vastly different from bacon flavoured crisps but were good all the same.

    Was in a restaurant the other day and they had "cows in blankets" as an option... I swear the Mrs and the 4 tables around us all asked exactly the same question to their table mates. No one seemed to order them so we'll never know if my answer (and others) was correct or not. Their Facebook picture suggests I was though  B)

    And? 

    Guessing bacon flavour but sweeter? Could work or may be terrible... probably marmite in dividing people depending on if you think crisps should be savoury or not.

    A Chinese supermarket has opened nearby recently which sells Walkers/Lays in Chinese flavours including eel, cheese lobster, cucumber etc which you just have to buy to see... they were all oddly sweet.

    Brown Cow Organics Christmas Pudding yogurt. It's a seasonal special, with all the taste of Christmas pudding, but without the stodge and poo colour. Really lovely. Works well with Green & Black's or Mackies organic vanilla ice creams too.
