Hope you don't get the bill for fumigating his uni lodgings when he leaves. 

He's sharing with seven girls and appears to be taking a minimalist approach to his uni existence.  He did mention having to buy bleach but suspect that might be to clean up after a night out.  Seven girls....

The heir to our debts likes to drink coffee through a KitKat.  He bites the ends off first and then sucks.  Has to be done fast or it becomes a bit messy...

Coffee is of course another of your five a day.  Coffee beans are a fruit aren't they?

Tell him to try with a penguin (biscuit!) nibble off opposite corners, dunk into coffee and suck

Just reminded that 30 years ago my french girlfriend and I toured Scotland eating Cadburys Hazel Nut Chocolate melted in a teaspoon in black coffee. We left melted chocolate all over Scotland !!

This works best with cadburys chocolate fingers, a box full should do a large coffee :-)

I'm delighted to find so many fellow food deviants here

nearly every cereal in France has some form of chocolate in it - including Special K

I was going to say that, plus half the brioches you buy have chocolate bits in, and dont forget the pain au chocolat!!
I personally DONT do chocolate for breakfast unless OH gets me pains aux chocs straight from our bakery for a special treat. Normally I have either scrambled or boiled eggs, with crispbreads spread with low fat spread and Marmite. Eggs and Marmite go so well together. As our hens have gone into overdrive at the moment and OH has gone off eggs, Im having to try and get through them alone!

I had boiled eggs for lunch today.  Scrummy.  I boiled extra so I could make egg mayo sandwiches tomorrow.

Chocolate cereals !
yes - I remember now that we could only buy such when the grandchildren and my son came out last year. My son had chocolate rice crispiest, pain au chocolate and on some days hot chocolate for breakfast. He told me off because he was gaining weight and I put too much out on the table for him to choose from. Not sure he would have joined me in an orange when he could have chocolate. Hes still a bit fat.

I just have to try that.  Will report back 

Well, I used the Co-op plain version not the branded one - not sure if that made the difference.  In truth, I didn't really get the coffee into my mouth, but enough came up the 'straw' so that the melty coffee-flavoured soggy stick was scrummy!      Yet another bad habit to add to the list...

We had an au pair briefly who for breakfast poured herself a cup of black tea and a bowl of dry muesli and dunked each spoonful of muesli into the tea before eating it. 

I've never tried the KitKat technique.  Sounds like it ought to be included in the deep-fried Mars bar cookery book.

I am home alone and have not been to the shops for a bit.
Today I had a breakfast after sorting out the birds, pigs and dog.
1 tin of sardines ( in olive oil) a sliced tomatoes and a sliced onion with oil and pepper.
Beats choclate !

[Rich/Jan]
