Hi all,
Just thought i would share this with you. I bought some chocolate treats called 'Mikado' made by Kraft foods. They are long thin sticks covered in chocolate - great for dunking - but the best bit is they only have 1.5grams of carbs per biscuit! So if you fancy a treat thats not too naughty try them! I got mine from Sainsburys - but i think you can get them in most supermarkets now.:D Bev
 
I've seen them advertised with the rather cheeky man watching the girl accidentaly photocopying her bottom
 
So that's what the advert is about :D
 
hi bev i have been buying them for about a month now my little boy loves them and the added bonus is the layer of choc dont quite go to the end of the stick so his fingers dont become all sticky there very nice indeed
 
Hi Steff,
It sounds like someone had their head screwed on when these were designed :D

Thanks for the tip Bev. I picked some up in Sainsbury's but haven't cracked them open yet. I might have one with supper 🙂

What just one
Youv'e got more willpower than me then :D
 
i found these very addictive 1 was never enough , like pringles once u pop you cant stop :D:D:D
 
It's so true about pringles! and also those chocolate fingers, especially the white ones I can eat the whole box in one go. I want some now lol!
 
mmmmm pringles and white chocolate fingers *drools* mmmmmmmmmmm
 
Minstrels are worth the extra Insulin doses MMmmmmm

Minstrels are great as a treat, although I have to eat the whole (small) packet! They seem to last longer than ordinary chocolate bar, but with an equivalent 'hit' in the sugar stakes. Peanut M&Ms are quite good too - less chocolate because of the peanut, but you still get the chocolate taste, plus the peanut has 'good' fat in it!🙂

Don't bother with Cadbury's Shots - they are rubbish!
