Chicken and twiglets shortage

[hantsxlg]

Seems to be a regional if not national shortage of these two vital products. Twiglets I could understand as seasonal surge but wondering why all the chicken has disappeared from the shelves? Brexit or is the Avian flu outbreak having a large effect?

[Ian Geary]

I suspect the reason can be found in the supermarket car parks, cramming their cars full of chicken.


Re twiglets: Is nothing safe in this cruelest of years?

Twiglets are disgusting anyway, no loss there.

Want banning.

Loads of twiglets in Aldi yesterday - big round tubs.

I've flagged it this up to the mods, hopefully a lifetime ban for that comment.

I totally disagree with the idea of banning things.

Except marmite & twiglets.

[Mr E]

I hate marmite. I quite like twiglets.

What the hell is wrong with me?

Get out

It's the Cheese Footballs which are *always* the challenge. Every single year giant piles of tubs of Twiglets but never any cheese footballs.

We've already bought our twiglets, so we're ready for the next zombie apocalypse/Brexit.

Cheese straws are my kryptonite though. I bought some for the Christmas period, then ate the entire box for lunch

Many things.
Probably a result of PTSD from taking your cat to the vets...

Can't stand marmite or twiglets...

[VR99]

Twiglets and Cheeslets....as long as I am stocked up on those it's gonna be a good Christmas....

[toon10]

It's not just twiglets, it's Mexican chilli nuts too. When will this hell end?

[Fishlegs]

Bring back Tangy Twiglets!

[Sticks.]

No chicken and twiglets? That's my Christmas dinner plans ruined.

Pringle sandwiches it is then.

[redrabbit]

Didn't they used to be about 3" long, like savoury matchmakers back in the day?

Genuine question: I'm not trying to become the new Peter Kay..."eh, breathing, eh? Remember when you had to use your lungs instead of a respirator? Ah tell thee...!"

Twiglets can be a remarkable resource in that regard - whittle one end of a twiglet to a sharpened point, and it can be used as an improvised weapon against the ghastly horde of shuffling brain-dead abominations.

No idea whether they're any good against zombies though.

I was in Aldi last night. Loads of Twiglets but a worrying lack of arc welders.
