What the fuck when did this happen?! Lunchables are now called Lunchers?! Absolutely sickening, cancel Dairylea

[skylertheminish]

What baffles me is how my local corner shop here in the UK (guess it meets our food safety standards?) Sells prime and that Mr beast chocolate yet no lunchly. Not even Tesco or Asda (think UK walmart) sell them! Never seen this Lunchly ever so I guess thats the one thing that fails to meet food safety here.

A bit odd me thinks.

lol. lmao even.

Dinner: Spaghetti and meatballs for H and me (we ate all our food with no fuss!), puréed ravioli for Miss 5 (took my chances since she refused lunch at school so I thought I might get away with something other than weetabix since she’d be hungry. She completely refused to eat it), crumpets and dairylea triangle for Mr 7 (he only comes to eat it because he likes the fancy yoghurt he can have for dessert afterwards).

After he’d eaten his meal, Mr 7 turned to me and said “Thankyou for my dinner” before scampering away from the table. It’s hard to believe this is the same boy who arrived in a state of constant hypervigilance and demand avoidance four weeks ago.

Part of me feels vindicated that Miss 5 is refusing her meal at school and interested to see how they handle it, and part of me feels worried that she’s refusing at school because she has learnt that when she refuses here I give her weetabix. Obviously I feel concerned about her level of nutrition. Although I have done the maths and a litre of fortified oat milk and 6 weetabix a day is actually pretty nutritious. Still trying to get hold of the dieticians.

10 things for 10 people you'd like to know better

last song: dtmf - bad bunny

last book: i think it was either wild sargasso sea by jean rhys or a welsh book called blasu by manon steffan ros.

last movie: a difficult one - it’s been so long! i think my last movie was home alone at christmas time🎄

last tv show: difficult to say as i tend to mix between a few at a time, especially if i’ve watched them more than once. currently, the rotation is a mix of downton abbey, bloodhounds (korean series), hidden love (chinese series), mr. plankton (korean series), and derry girls. a lot, i know, but my brain needs the variety!

sweet/savory/spicy: definitely a big savoury person, but i lean a bit sweet depending on the time of the month or if i’m sad.

relationship status: very much single and very much happy about it, save for the lack of physical affection (someone just gimme a hug lie on me to make me feel something).

last thing i googled: nhs job vacancies

current obsession: creamy garlic mushrooms, dairylea dunkers, below deck, bad bunny’s new album, nesting (basically where i add a load of throws and blankets to my bed and make a cocoon, all wrapped up warm like a cozy slug, and watch / read).

looking forward to: my weighted blanket delivery sometime this week, and the creamy garlic mushroom and chicken pasta i’m going to make tomorrow (and the rest of the meals i’ve planned for this week).

Thank you for tagging me, @sometimesanalice! So much love to you, forever and always, my darling <3

No pressure tags! (so sorry if you’re not interested / have already done this): @crescenthistory @agreeeeeeeeeee @aquaticmercy @mugglebornmarvelite @reysdriver @fayes-fics

5 is BITING soft cheese. He has a dairylea dunker and he's BITING the cheese spread.

Like, how do you even do that?!

Is it tism or is he just weird?

I'm not having Christmas dinner this year.

I'm not into Christmas, but Christmas dinner is another matter. I love food. It genuinely brings me joy. I'm also vegetarian, and the only time I can get a fake meat joint is Christmas, so it's a pretty big deal. Sainsbury's are bringing back their fake gammon, so it was all planned out. Alternating slices of Sainsbury's fake turkey and the fake gammon, Richmond fake back bacon wrapped around M&S Plant Kitchen Posh Dogs, roast potatoes and fried carrot ribbons with Bisto gravy and homemade apple sauce from the tree in our garden. All my favourites. It was going to be perfect 😋.

I'm a little late to discover apparently that, back in October, M&S decimated their Plant Kitchen range. For the last few months, whenever I visited, the section was tiny and then it vanished. I asked and they said everything was now mixed together. Is utter confusion supposed to be good for business??? It took both myself and the shop assistant to find the single stack of vegan sausages among the entire isle of meat ones. They weren't the Posh Dogs, but this was a month ago and I thought I could just check another M&S. I went into two other stores and no Posh Dogs. If our shih tzu hadn't been ill we'd have gone to Scarborough (a nearly two hour drive away) looking for them by now. Today I decided to just order them online. They've gone. They no longer exist. Then I looked up their amazing fake pepperoni pizza. It no longer exists. Then I found the articles about what M&S had done. They had one of the most popular vegan ranges in the country, but they discontinued most of it and mixed what was left among everything else. I no longer have any reason to walk through their doors and I'm not having Christmas dinner. It was the only part of Christmas left that I enjoyed so if it's not right it's not worth fucking about with.

It's easy for meat eaters. They can eat what they want all the time. Vegans and Veggies get one Sunday roast style meal a year, and fake meat varies A LOT, so when we find something that's just right it's important. Since finding my favourite vegan/veggie versions of my formerly favourite meat products, I haven't missed meat at all. Not once. It's been four years, and today I miss meat. I miss just being able to walk into a shop and buy delicious food without checking for a V or a Ve on the packet. I miss not having to ask at cafes and bakeries where nothing is labeled. I miss eating in a pub and being able to choose from the entire menu. I miss not having to see the uncomfortable looks I get if I have to tell someone I can't eat food they're offering me. I miss spam and battered cod. I can't ever eat meat or fish again, but I'm sick of things being complicated. I shouldn't be considering a nearly two hour drive for sausages and pepperoni pizza. Guess I'll just have to stop caring about food. Tonight was going to be my favourite veggie burger with a Dairylea cheese slice, mustard and ketchup in a tiger bread bun. Now it's a plain cheese sandwich and crisps, because good food makes me feel sick when I'm annoyed or upset 😒.

Unless any shops suddenly start doing fake bratwurst, fuck Christmas. And I'll still be pissed off about the pizza. Enjoy your pepperoni meat eaters because I sure as hell can't 🙄.

[wolfinthethorns]

Ever stumble across one of those cooking hacks that seems so blisteringly obvious in retrospect you feel stupid for not having thought of it before?

Cheap-ass spreadable cheese triangles (dairylea etc) as a stabiliser to prevent the sauce in your stove-top mac and cheese from splitting.

(I mean I probably didn't think of it before because they're not the sort of thing we bought before Pubert. Pubert turned their nose up as them, of course.)

Answering questions from THIS ask game!! Doing these all for Leland cause he could really use some more attention as my best bud and I ought to do more elaborating about him and thinking about him anyway!! It would be really fun and nice to expand on him more!

------

HI!! FUTURE KANE HERE. So, funny story, I actually did this back in *checks wrist watch* October. I thought I never posted it because I never finished it, so imagine my surprise when I come back here to be like oh! Yeah! I have that ask game I was doing for Leland, I've been thinking about him a bit for whatever reason, I can finish that!!! And then I go through it and I've already answered everything. I reread it all, I think it all still feels fitting in my mind. I said I would post this last night and then I fell asleep. But I also still feel like doing the Grem and Acer thing so. That might also happen. Later. Eventually. Not to mini-post within an already big post or anything. If you read I hope you enjoy!

[ 💢 ] — did you two get along right away , or did you have to work through some difficulties at first ¿

We pretty much got along right away, I had quite and easy time really opening up to him and being honest with him, and it didn't take much time for him at all to start getting comfortable around me!

[ ⏰ ] — how long have you known each other ¿

Oh man.. well, for as however long I have known Finn as well! Which, I'd have to check... I believe it's been two years? Probably a little more than that, really. I had just spent some time a little while ago trying to find out when I first started posting about some of my F/Os on my old blog and when I made their playlists for them, it's not an exact date but it was quite the enjoyable surprise!

[ 🍊 ] — what would they say your favorite snack is and vice versa ¿ do you surprise each other with comfort foods often ¿

He would probably list the obligatory my favorite snack sort of stuff is Oreos and Cola, but he would also be so very quick to call me out for liking the McVitie's HobNobs, and he is so right to do that because I don't have those things as often as I'd like I swear!

Leland seems to really like scones. Like, really like them. But I can't entirely blame him for it, either. He will really take nearly anything, he always enjoys having at least something to munch at. He really like finger-foods though, or things like the DairyLea products

[ 🧸 ] — what's the best way to cheer them up ¿

Typically going out on some sort of fun adventure or rambunctious event can cheer him up right! Just something on a whim, normally the more eventful the better. Dragging him to an amusement park and letting him ride a bunch of rollarcoasters would probably hit the spot for him without it being dangerous at all, even if I couldn't accompany him on really any of them because I am weary of them so I'd probably just stick to one or two smaller ones.. I think he would love amusement parks and nearly everything about them, truly. I'd go to one even if it was just tailing him around.

[ 🌻 ] — who is more introverted and who is the extrovert ¿

He is definitely more extroverted. Honestly I think I'm a bit of an extrovert in the sense that I love talking to people and hearing them talk, even if I can get drained easily depending on the situation. I always just go with calling myself an ambivert, it's kinda like one of those "what is your main love language?" It's like.. it's too much of a mix for me to pick a primary one! But Leland is definitely social and outgoing and out there, he is not too shy or shameful.

[ 💫 ] — do you have a crush on someone that they know about ¿ do they approve of the person ¿ would they rather offer genuine advice on how to pursue them or just tease you about it ¿

Cough. Finn. Cough. Leland absolutely teases the daylight of out of me for it AND Finn as well. He's essentially the reason the three of us even hang out in the first place! He's enjoying playing the role of wingman on both ends I think, it cracks him up.

[ 👽 ] — how are they at co-op games ¿ are you both equally good or does one have to carry the other ¿

Leland doesn't play a lot of games, so outside from games that can be played causally or competatively depending on your preference, like Minecraft, Stardew, Mario, etc., most sandbox sorts of games, he probably uuhh.. isn't the most experienced, to put it lightly. I feel like he's prone to soft rage-quitting ones that have harder learning curbs or aren't things that you can't pick up and get right to playing essentially. If we did play any games together, REGAURDLESS of how good either of us are, he will still be absolutely as irriating as possible about it and completely humor himself about it too. He'd be the kind of person to completely screw over wheoever is playing Wii Mario Bros. With him because the screen is fixed to following only one player which ruins so, so, much if someone decides to be frustrating about it and not go through it together. He's the one in Humans Fall Flat that grabs everyone to drag them off of ledges or mess them up. In all fairness, he's very good at being humorous about it and actually funny with it instead of doing it to intentionally aggrivate me.

[ 🍾 ] — what's your favorite way to celebrate some big occasion ¿ are you guys the type to plan ahead or do you just do whatever you feel like ¿

Not many big occasions that we end up doing! But Leland loves decorating for Holidays, he practically considers the entirety of Autumn one big holiday and drape leaf decorations all over. He is very excitable about it though and I can't be surprised if he leaves lit scented seasonal candles in my own house/apartment or other minor decorations. Though he's cautious when it comes to celebrating because he doesn't want to accidentally get overwhelming because he absolutely will get over the top with it, so he normally tries to lean towards being go with the flow about it. Think PinkiePie celebration behavior almost, but more sassy and cheeky, and less loud or bouncy.

[ 🫂 ] — have you ever met their parents/caretaker(s) ¿ how did it go ¿ do you think you've made/would make a good impression ¿

I have not, andddd I'm not sure if I ever will🤔 Truthfully neither of us really ever talk about our family life stuff or history of it, so it's never really crossed my mind. I figured if he wasn't mentioning it perhaps there was a reason for it. I have no clue what sorts of folk he had.

[ 🌐 ] — do you text each other often , or is there no need because you live in close proximity ¿ do they send you random posts that remind them of you or spam your messages just to be a menace ¿

Me and Leland could(and nearly do) meet almost every day, and yet he still absolutely texts me frequently. Which, I do not mind one bit at all! I very much get random posts or like videos or memes that he sends me, most of it is just stuff he finds funny or think I would find funny. Some of it is like a funny picture of like a chicken with a party hat or something and a text message of "this you?/this is you".

[ 🧢 ] — what's the height difference between you two ¿

Leland is like 5'10-6ft-ish, so he looks a little funny next to me and Finn, both like 5'3.

[ 🧿 ] — have you ever made kandis / friendship bracelets for each other ¿ do y'all wear any matching accessories in general ¿

We have not made friendship bracelets together yet! I feel like if we ever did make any matching kandi items it would be something a bit more funny or an accessory, like a little kandi coin purse or those lizard kandis that can be put on keychains or bracelets or wherever you'd like. We should do that in the near future, though. Getting matching items as best friends is something I should perhaps explore a bit more.. so far all my bracelets or matching items that I have are of my romantic F/Os, and so my brain has like a perma(nt. Permant.)-association between my romantic F/Os and those things now! We have done matching nails before though of simple designs like just alternating black and white while pretending to run our mouths about different things or like we'd have any gossip(we wouldn't ever engage in any actual gossip, of course, cause that stuff isn't good and is just rumors).

[ 🌂 ] — do you share your stuff often (clothes , tools , food , etc.) ¿ do they grumble about it but begrudgingly agree or is it second nature to them at this point ¿

We occasionally split snacks together if they come in individual packs or things, I am very very particular when it comes to food(due to ReasonsTM that are lengthy to explain) and so I normally don't share food unless it is with a romantic F/O, and I'm nearly the same with clothing as well except for like the rare needing to borrow a jacket or such cause it's freezing and one is forgotten.

Biggest thing we've ever had to share is the TV remote and time with Finn /j

[ 🪀 ] — how are y'all at parallel play ¿ what's a hobby of yours that both of you like to dabble into ¿

A lotttt of our time spent together is just parallel play really! I don't know if this counts as a hobby or not, but Leland also shares my possibly more-than-average enjoyment of going on walks or like to malls and just window shopping. Hardest part of it is keeping it to just window shopping and not buying anything!

[ 🧼 ] — who's more tidy and collected ¿

Hmmm... good question, haha!! We're both a bit on the messier and cluttered end. I want to say he is a bit better about it than me, though; mostly just because a lot of his clutter doesn't end up on the floor and so if seems a bit more tame.

[ 🎀 ] — do you help each other out with picking outfits ¿ is your fashion sense similar or does it clash with theirs ¿

Our fashion sense is fairly quite different, we normally are wearing our suits so you wouldn't really probably notice anyway, but his fashion sense is a lot more extravagant and stylish with what he wears, not that he gets to show it off very often. I don't like wearing much asides from slacks and hoodies/jackets outside of people that I'm really close with or comfortable around because I am very worried over how I will be perceived, gender-wise. Cause of this reason I also reallyyy don't like people getting clothes for me or such unless it is like a pair of socks/hats/accessories/etc or I like.. really really super trust the person and it is like a I can't do it myself for whatever reason situation.

[ 🛼 ] — do you do any sports ¿ if so , have they been to your performances or big rehearsals to show support ¿

I've never done sports and I never got to attend jazz or orchestra like I wanted to in school because I rode the buss and they were before/after school events(or I was far too anxious to do the mandatory concerts or performances at sports at the time), so I've never had any performances for people to attend, really! Which, I kinda wish I did cause I think it'd be nice to have the open support like that! Maybe once I learn one of the dozen instruments I want to do I can do some one-off show at some quiet coffee shop or Cafe, but even then I don't think I'm really much or the performer type anyway..

[ 💭 ] — alright enough wholesomeness , embarrass them NOW . tell a silly fact about them , or maybe even a funny story .

He doesn't like to use my door when visiting. Gave me quite a scare the first few times around! But then I got used to it pretty quickly. He likes to be incredibly punctual over things, and so he at least shows up at the same time and knocks my bedroom window. But it doesn't really help that it's normally really early in the morning around the crack of dawn when he does it.

[ 💣 ] — is there something either of you does usually to annoy the other on purpose ¿

I mean, the main obvious one here is he teases the heck out of me for like-liking(understatement) Finn. But he absolutely bugs me on purpose with things, a lot of it coming out in a teasing manner, like me forever subconsciously having it in my head that the passenger seat is on the right and driver seat is on the left, or if I'm having a slow start to my morning he will do things to agitate me to get out of bed, like rummaging around in my stuff or telling me that he's going to mix the flour and sugar containers together in my cupboard. Though, I will say he's mastered the fine line of teasing/bugging me to where it is still lighthearted and humorous and playful and I get a bit of a kick out of it too, as opposed to being a hurtful or intentionally ignorant pain. He also makes jokes to me that whenever some british slang slips through me or the accent rubs off on some of my words after being surrounded by it for so long, he'll joke that I'm being converted or I have to get a nationality change now.

I absolutely return fire with him. Though he is lucky because he is slightly spared from being teased about British things because I'd have to be subjecting Finn to it as well. I often bring goodies like treats or snacks over when we meet cause I know he really likes those things, and I'll threaten to ruin his tea by adding things he doesn't like in it or joke that I'll deprive him of me bringing anything next time and we'll just have to sit boredly with nothing to do. There is also a right amount of playful slander when it comes to getting playfully competitive over things whether it be playing games or trying to outdo eachother with "I dare you to do [x]" when we are bored waiting for something. I'm not much of a playing dare games sort of person and Leland very much is, so it can be a bit funny that a challenging dare for me could be something like walking around with untied shoes while a challenging dare for him is something like being dared to climb to the top of a lamppost WITHOUT using any of his gadgets. It's all in good fun though so of course we respect eachothers limits or boundaries when tapping out or a different dare is needed. Of course, with all due teasing.

[ 🐈‍⬛ ] — what about pets ¿ who's the owner , what kind , have you met the critter(s) , do they like you ¿

Funnily enough I do have a cat irl, but I never consider or think about too much of my F/Os meeting my cat! I'm not sure why, it just never crosses my mind very much. I feel as though Leland would be too caught up in constantly running and going around different places that it interferes with him being able to have a pet. Second closest thing I would get to that would be perhaps some plushies like ones of a horse or something getting introduced to him, and he will absolutely play along and be like "Them? Oh, I already know them. Yeah, they spilled all the dirt on you while you were gone." And we both get a laugh out of it!

[karathraces]

the discord app has been trying to tell my friend i got dairylea string cheese since 2pm and honestly i can't stop it now

[maghrabiyya]

Choose your fighter

Pic 1: Edgar (Egg) - very high pitched meow, fat, really likes oat milk, lover of textures (he lick), gentle but plays too rough, always apologises for playing too rough, doesn't matter where you are he is always watching you, has a favourite plushie (spider shaped,) mostly a good boy but easily swayed by Stink

Pic 2: Jinx (Stink) - plays fetch with trash, parkours up stairs bannister, eats plastic, vomits up plastic, madly in love with dairylea dunkers, enjoys screaming her fishy mouth into your face at 4am, head is so small, eats mothers plants, vomits up mothers plants

[cringecorekitty]

Dairylea is basically cream cheese, you can get it in tubs or triangles, or you can get it in packets with breadsticks. Plagg would love it!

plagg says he would like to stick with his camembert :)

[shepardstales]

Okay so I was distracted from writing because I could smell sewage downstairs and the kittens had found some like dairylea cheese and went to town on it, then shit themselves so I had to clear that up. I did the dishes, I washed my hands like 6 times with soap, hand gel and then finally put hand cream on.

I'm good. I'm calm xD

[nicistrying]

Quick update: i just came on my period and i'm stuck at work for 4 more hours! My break is going over far too fast but i have no intention to go back before i'm ready bc i feel fucking gross. BUT I'm having a little dairylea snack pot with my lunch and that's helping a bit. And I had a beautiful walk with Maggie thie morning. So I can do it 💪
