You two are my favourites! I enjoy the subtle sarcasm from both of you!! I would also particularly enjoy watching Ed’s face when presented with his Teddy Bear 🧸 picnic for lunch! 😂😂😂❤

🤣🤣 sadly I used it for a packed lunch for a museum outing with the girls so he missed out xx

Brilliant haul, and don't forget that Pringles and Stacker tube lids fit those little Gu ramekins perfectly. Making them great little storage pots or just stackable pudding pots for the girls (and Ed) in the fridge. 😀

You did really well with the 2 boxes. Billy Bear! Oh wow I didn't know they still made that! I used to eat that when I was a kid. The Warburton seeded bread is really good.

Ed's shock at the prices of the bread products has me cracking up. Those Naan breads would be over $4 US and your bread loaf is huge and name brand here would be over $3 on sale.

@mumthings 4 месяца назад

I live in Kansas in the U.S. & I wish we had "to go" & surprise bags here. Not only for all the good reasons you mentioned at the start of the video but also because it kind of forces you out of your comfort zone & makes you get creative in the kitchen & cook foods you normally wouldn't. To me, getting one would be fun!

@catherinebarlow3079 4 месяца назад

I no that some parts of America they have started doing too good to go bags if google it should come up

@mumthings 4 месяца назад

That’s definitely one of the best things about it. You get so many things you wouldn’t normally buy. It’s great fun! Xx

@dorothysue1 4 месяца назад

If you slip paper towels in the bread and roll packages before you freeze them, they will absorb the moisture. Also open the package up while defrosting.

@mumthings 4 месяца назад

That’s a great tip, thanks! I will give it a go xx

@terrij2410 4 месяца назад

I used to put individual yogurt containers in the freezer. Kids loved it when id put the yogurts in their school lunches. it would melt enough to be easy to eat. They would also just eat it frozen at home. It prolonged the life of the yogurt.

That a great tip, yoghurt freezes really well xx

By desserts tend to be nice. When Ed is annoying you( if he ever does?) Make him a best paste and bear sandwich😂 I love watching your channel. I used to cook often but after the scrappy few years I've lapsed. But you have got me back into cooking again. Might only be a couple of things as mobility issues but I pleased to have my mojo returning! Thanks Claire

@dottieland7061 4 месяца назад

Wow, that’s good boxes , I love milk rolls when I’m In the UK, the kids will love that bread, perfect kiddie size sandwiches. I used to love billy bear sausage. As my husband calls it factory floor sweepings along with Haslet.

@mumthings 4 месяца назад

Oh yes, the milk roll went down a storm! And the bear ham was actually really tasty (even if it looks pretty sinister 🤣) xx

@sarajane4708 4 месяца назад

If its buns out the freezer, after defrosting I wrap them in greaseproof paper and put in the air fryer for a few seconds, it usually gets rid of any wet spots.

@mumthings 4 месяца назад

That’s a good trick! Thanks for sharing xx

@crystalr5090 4 месяца назад

I agree. Great boxes! I've seen the bear-shaped sandwich meat on other hauls. First time I've seen it in a to-good-to-go box, though. Lots of good things in there. Definitely worth the price. 🥰🐢💤

@colettebishop2173 4 месяца назад

Its a legal requirement to list mechanically separated meat in ingredients list as its obtained by centrifuging carcasses and bones to strip the meat scraps, meaning the meat fibres are denatured to a sort of sludge, so it cant just be called chicken, pork or whatever as that implies its muscle meat.
