Do it!!!

My USA buddies put me on to this - and it's brilliant! They are yummy!!

A fab way to ward off a crave, sooth ya throat, feel like you're eating a sweet (kind of); and not pile on the pounds!

Result...!!

I'm off to freeze bananas tonight and maybe tangerines too.. try it!! :D

True true - I agree.. but going on the grapes.. I'm having a bash!

May I suggest you try the grapes first!! :D;)

I have sensitive very teeth too, and I was dubious about this, but when I tried one I though - "oh they're not that bad on the teeth" Honest !!

They freeze on the outside but you suck em like a sweet for about 10 seconds then the middle goes softer and a bit warmer so you can bite 'em easily.. they are really nice with a weird but nice texture - honestly!! Try em! :D

Yay one more try!! Woohoo! Thank you for trying my frozen grape phenomenom (if that's how you spell it?), I think you may be pleasantly surprised!! Let me know what you think!! :D

How ya doing today?? All good I hope! Your team diminished quite quickly didn't it! You've hung in there though (is be happy still quit?) and you should be very proud - you are very positive and I think that will see you easily through your quit! :D

Yip, me and BeHappy are still quit :) - she's not able to log on a lot at the moment though.

I just posted an update on last night's fiasco :D

Much better today, thanks, we are off to our caravan tomorrow and not back until Monday, so don't worry that I'm not checking in! :cool:

One question...... which is better, black or green? :rolleyes:

Hey!

Yes! I admit they are fab (shame I cannot take them to work!) - they have also proven a big hit with my 3 year old who thinks they are ice cream bits :)

Let me know if it works with any other fruit?

Thanks again for the great suggestion!

Hi Jude - I don't see why not. I know you can buy frozen summer fruit but whether you can do the same with those as you can with grapes I don't know. You can only suck 'em and see - he he :D:D

Oh cool.. glad you all like 'em.. they are surprisingly nice eh!! :D

I thank my fellow USA quitters for that hot (or should I say cold) tip!

I froze a banana at the weekend but not tried it yet.. mmmm?? Not sure it's gonna work as well as grapes.. I have put tangerine in the feezer today - I'll report on that tomorrow!

Yes you can but the they will become soggy when you take them out. They make a great addition to yogurt though!! I make a vanilla yogurt treat with berries & flax seed everyday. It's yummy and low calories.

Hee hee Barbara... go get 'em out the feezer!!! :D

Jan, I did what Barbara did and forgot about it!! I put in an orange instead (which I cut ALL the pith off of first!). I'll try it tomorrow and let you know as it's in the freezer at work!!

Glad you like the grapes! :D

Wow! How strange is this sensation? Took them out freezer and started laughing cos they look and feel just like the old plastic fruit that was all the vogue in the 70's (not that I remember that :o - I must have seen it in an old mag or something lol :D)

This wee bunch of grapes could just last me all night!

Thanks again Lady Sa - I'll try other fruits this weekend :)

mmmmmmm yummy!!!!!!

How odd is this. You are the second person this week to suggest the frozen grapes. I guess I should give it a try. I have to grocery shop first though ;)

BANANAS! :D:D

Seriously - I peeled a banana and cut it up, then left it in the freezer overnight.

Result? Delicious,:) - it takes just like ice-cream - banana flavoured, funnily enough! :D
