Wagon wheels are bad for you. Full of sugar, in fact 3 teaspoonfuls in each wheel plus all the saturated fats !

They're bad, really bad . . . . .


and yet I've still just had to buy a packet when I saw them today in the supermarket !!!! All because you created this thread !

I'm so fickle. But they are yummy.

Definitely smaller than I remember them though

Still I can eat 2 to make up for it !
Realist, I know there is little nutrition in them, but the sugar will boost your energy levels. Look what they did for OGF, he can run miles and he still has lovely legs!

Resistance is futile Realist.....
I visit Tesco with the best of intentions, I peruse the fruit and veg isles, select some Quorn mince from the cold cabinet, some soya milk and make my way to the tills.....

But Tesco in their wisdom have deliberately placed obstacles in my way.
I have two choices, I can either pass down the crisp isle, or the biscuit isle...
I choose the biscuit isle, and after almost making my escape I notice the the yellow discount sticker.....

I zoom in for a closer look and it refers to the Wagon Wheels.....Six for a quid....A little over sixteen pence each.....They mysteriously find their way into my basket...

I feel your pain Realist.....

Re: Food for the Gods...

I was also turned on by the thought of a pack of wagon wheels last night so popped round to the local garage to get some but ended up with Tunnocks Tea cakes instead. I'm not sure which is best now.

Yes Primus, Kirk Sandall is the next village, although with all the house building that's been going on around here you can't tell where Kirk Sandall ends and Barnby Dun begins....

The council put up a shiny new bronze sign, but the pikeys have weighed it in....

No No No No No No No No No No Longdogs....One bite and they're gone. I'm down to my last Wagon Wheel at close of play tonight, but despite rumours of shrinkage, I still think they are 'pound for pound' better value and more wholesome than any other biscuit....

As recommended by Realist......

Anyway, size doesn't always matter, if it did Mrs Fox would never have married me!.....

I'm such a Magnum expert now, I can tell a fake with the first bite!

You should try the Morrison's own brand, they're actually nicer than the Magnum version and only 3 for £1.
