[Food] 34 custard creams

[Questions]

My son in law has just confessed to me that he has just eaten 34 custard creams in a short scoff up. Just over 2000 calories. He is 27 and not overweight. They were 36p down from 44p in Morrisons....

I’d like some sort of response from NSC.

Might not be overweight but what about his cholesterol?

 

[Hampster Gull]

Hmz. That is a lot

 

[Giraffe]

Was it a bet or a challenge? If neither of these he should seek medical help, not sure if mental or physical.

 

[Badger]

Did he dunk them all in the same cup of tea?

How many packets was that I’m assuming at least 2 ?

 

[Madafwo]

Lightweight. If he can count them he's not eating them fast enough.

Not a big fan of custard cremes, but at that price, good lad

I generally eat quite well but biscuits are the one thing I can’t have in the house because I’ll just plough through an entire pack in one sitting if they are to hand.
I have a huge mug that can easily accommodate the dunking of a regular sized pack of biscuits.

I’ll go for almost any biscuit except hob-nobs (it’s not the taste, it’s the texture) , garibaldis (raisins make me gag) or ginger nuts (ginger irritates my throat).

A packet of malted milks have a life expectancy of 9 minutes in my house.

It wasn’t a soggy biscuit game was it

Many years ago, whilst making my dinner, I asked my flat mate ('Turks') if he wanted some. He declined, since he had just eaten a large pack of chocolate digestives. If I recall, it was about 2,000 calories.

He was a skinny fat bloke. I'm sure you all know one of these people. They look slim, but it's a freak of genetics. If you touch them their body feels like carrier bags full of water. They just yield

Digestives do the trick for me, lovely grub!
Not a whole packet at once though

 

[Official Old Man]

Ate a packet of Aldi Fig Rolls last night.
Still OK so far.

34 custard creams packed and very neat

And if one custard cream I accidentally eat
There'll be 33 custard creams packed and very neat ... ad infinitum.

Exactly. What kind of mentalist counts custard creams?

As an aside, I once ate 500g of coleslaw in under a minute but that was a race and won me £20.

That's nothing, you should see how much the young lad scoffs in seat in front of me each match

An old pub I used to go to in Tarring in Worthing had the ‘Cheese Snips Record’ scrawled on a blackboard .You had to put then in two piles to cram them in your mouth and were not allowed to drop a crumb from that point on. I held the record at 32 in one mouthfall for over two weeks.

Cheese snips were like a mini cheddar for those without a knowledge of ‘Classic Snacks‘ of the 80’s and 90’s.

My response is that this has cost him approximately 1.06p per CC.

If he had purchased them at the higher price, then it would have cost him approximately 1.29p per CC.

He has therefore saved 0.23p per comestible.

That saving probably gave him a boost of endorphins with each CC consumed and no doubt spurred him on without much thought to the consequences.















Either that or he is just dead greedy.
