Eye Spy....my secret (food) shame

It's a funny theme today from Jade over at Just Needs Salt.

When it comes to some foods (particularly anything sweet and chocolately), I just never grew up. I still drink my milo like this.... 1/3 milo and 2/3 milk - and I eat the milo from the top with a teaspoon.... just like I always did! I also still like to just eat milo straight out of the tin, but I've tried to curb that behaviour. Luckily, I'm not trying to set a good example to any little kiddies.

It's all gone now and it was delicious.

Head on over to visit Cindy to play along.

  1. Yes! I used to do this all the time. Sometimes I'd eat if off the top, sometimes I would mix it in for some very thick and filling choccie milk! I haven't had milo in ages (too expensive for something that goes so fast) but this is giving me a serious craving!

  2. Yeah, I do that still too (not often but every once in a while). My husband who is a kiwi (& didn't grow up drinking milo like that) can't believe that's how I eat/drink it. I think he thinks its gross. It is never around long enough for him to try it though...

  3. I think you are quite restrained. The man of this house has 2/3 milo 1/3 milk.

  5. Definitely a tradition that has been passed onto the children and I have no shame I encourage a spoon full of milo from the tin...it seems it has to be an essential part of the 'rite of passage'...love it!

  6. i have about 1/2 and 1/2 as i'm lactose intolerant so i just mix it all up and eat the soggy milo...
    but it still gives me a tummy ache...but a little price to pay...

  11. When my American cousins came to visit they perfected a method involving drinking hot milo through a Tim Tam with both ends nibbled off. It's quite entertaining to watch!

  16. Mmm, I used to have a housemate who would rub milo powder into butter and then eat that. I think you're way out in front, yours is such a popular method!
    PS - love the tim-tam corners one. I always wanted to try that.
