easily swayed..?

[looobylooo]

hi all,

was just curious to know if any of yous are as easily swayed/influenced as i blummin am, for instance when it comes to fancying food etc..

ie - i see or hear someone say theyre having a crispy bacon sarnie or a round of hot buttered toast or something nice like that,
and, whether im hungry or not, before i know it, im fancying it myself and just have to go and get/make some!

anyone else the same? and if so, what was it? :o)

[JB]

Ha! Whenever we eat out, I have to wait to hear what everyone else is having before I decide - otherwise I just know that I'll be jealous of someone's meal!

[looobylooo]

oh yeah jb, lol, yes, im just the same! . we must be weak willed eh lol

[roxie_09]

Hehe, and everyone elses meal always looks and tastes better (if you get to taste it ) lol x

[looobylooo]

oh, but of course roxie! lol

[roxie_09]

Ha, whenever I go out for food with the OH I have to have what he has, or he might get annoyed with me nicking things off his plate hehe x

[mrs.chappie]

I'm the same, Loooby. I've no willpower at all, especially when there's some tucker on the go.

I used to see that with then-OH when cigarette advertising was on the telly - as soon as a ciggy advert came on the telly, he'd reach for his own box of fags and light up.

If anyone has toast and marmalade on the TV I have to go and make some, and theres an ad on at the moment that shows cheese on toast that makes my mouthwater but I hate cheese on toast.

[ummmm]

Boxy - reading your answer has just made me light up!

[looobylooo]

going back a few years now, i remember i was swayed by 'pete' on big brother (the one with tourettes and dated nicky graham from in the house, remember?)
anyway, on one of their weekly shopping lists he got a big bag of twiglets for himself, and from then on, i just had to have twiglets! and this phase/addiction lasted a good 12 months!
and another thing ive got bb to blame for, is eating toast at 3am in the morning! lol..
the housemates were often still up in the small hours and often made themselves toast..
oh, i lost count at the times i had to nip downstairs and do a couple of slices too! .. lol ...

[erin-x]

Well Loooby.. I didn't think I was very easily swayed but I really want buttery toast now that you've mentioned it! lol

[looobylooo]

hi mrs c, and theres been many a time you lot have been talking about grub on here, and ive had to quietly slink away from the screen and fix myself something similar! lol..

[boxtops]

I can't say that this has ever been a problem for me!!

[looobylooo]

oh erin! lol ......

well, while youre out there in the kitchen, i'll have a couple with mamite please, if i may?! lol

[looobylooo]

ooh youre stronger willed than us then boxy! ;o)

[erin-x]

I've never tried marmite! Those adverts with the snail and frog make me want to try it though. Now that I think of it.. I must be very easily swayed! haha :)

[marval]

Oh no, I want toast with marmite now.

[looobylooo]

hi giveup, is that the cathedral cheese ad where everyone catches sight of someone or another making/eating cheese on toast..?
its odd it makes you want some when you dont even like cheese! lol ;o)

[giveup]

But it looks so delicious

[giveup]

Sorry, yes the Cathedral Cheese ad.
