No Claire you are not boring at all, your videos are great, you talk about important issues which I'm sure helps a lot of people, love your shopping hauls you are so informative about products and I love to watch your family day trips they are so entertaining, keep doing what you do..you are great x
Hi Claire, I love all your videos because you are authentic and you keep it real. I'll watch your videos whichever way you do them. I do enjoy the chatty ones a lot xx
You my love are NOT boring I love the chat honestly I can go anywhere and watch shopping hauls but you have your personality and own stamp on it and I love it 🥰🙏🏼❤️
Absolutely love your videos, you are not boring! It's so tricky balancing feeding your family healthy food Vs needing to keep your sanity on busy days. Life is about balance. Nothing wrong with some convenience foods when needed xx
Claire, your not boring, laughing. Xanthium Gum, it's added as an alternative stabiliser / thickener you will find it in a lot of gluten free products as well as: Salad dressings /Bakery products /Fruit juices /Soups /Ice creams/ Sauces /Gravies Syrups and Low-fat foods It's created from sugar, so, like anything, additives in moderation. Lily might have a lactose intolerance, can happen. Milk is a big culprit in upsetting the digestive system.
She's usually OK with milk, and has been fine with whole milk in the past. We thought she might have a lactose intolerance when she about 2 (but turned out she was really constipated and once that was gone she was fine!) I have a feeling it may have been a bit of a bug. Will try her on whole milk next week and see what happens... I won't worry too much about the xanthum gum, like you say, everything in moderation 👍xx
You are right , it is a minefield ! Don’t beat yourself up , it has taken Me a long time to wean myself off All Refined sugar products And Processed ones , but I have the time to cook from scratch and I don’t have children at home anymore , I would like to eat all organic but that is very expensive
Yeah the Belvita ones are nicer aren't they! And my kids prefer the choc chips and aldi don't do them. Also, I prefer the ingredient list on the belvita ones, i think there's less junky stuff in them. Although I only buy them occasionally for the kids when I see them on offer in tesco/poundland 😊
You are not boring at all. I love to see your video's. Im in Orlando Florida. It's fascinating to see the low prices there but I know cost of living is so different everywhere.
Aw I love Orlando ❤️ My grandparents used to live in Clermont, I have LOTS of fun memories of holidays there. I'm the same, I like seeing how different prices are in different places 😊
Never boring, I love watching your videos. Just a thought how do the children know which shop the chicken nuggets are from, I’m sure you probably have, but have you tried just not telling them and putting them out? I’m sure they do differ from brand to brand , but surely the basic ingredients of a chicken nugget are the same, and I don’t think many children have the refined palate to pick up on slight differences 🤣🤣? I bet they all like McDonald’s chicken nuggets!! I’ve said before but it really surprised me that the children eat things like pepperoni and garlic sausage, it’s great obviously but all the things they won’t eat yet eat strong flavours like that 🤣 it’s weird isn’t it?! 😂 I think you are doing very well with your dedication to checking all the Ingredients and making healthier choices, is it still a bit early to say or are you noticing any differences since making the changes? x
Thank you ❤️ Honestly, I don't know how they can tell the difference...but they can! It's crazy! I've bought different ones and not said anything, and they don't like them. So weird. Zack will eat any kind of breaded chicken, Lily and Charlie and so fussy about them it drives me mad 🙈 I am noticing some better behaviour from the kids after increasing their protein and giving more fruit/veg. I'm feeling better from eating more fruit and veg and less carbs. So I think it is having a positive impact. Hope you're having a nice weekend xx
Btw you are not boring in any way but I do think you are getting too hung up on ingredients. We eat healthily due to health issues but the only thing I check for is gluten xx
Well, I guess I won't be getting them again then. Although it said on the Internet that all free-range chickens were recently laying 'barn eggs' because of the avian flu outbreak?
@HelenRitchie-38 I never knew that just buying eggs would be such an ethical minefield 🙈 caged eggs should be banned, that's cruel. Barn eggs sound nicer, free-range, even better, and organic = financial goals 😅 but at the end of the day we're all just trying to put food on the table aren't we xx
I used to love your hauls but they are getting boring. Most people don't have the time to check labels. At the end of the day with price of food they just want to feed their children the best they can. A lot of the food you buy are convenient foods 😢
To be honest, as a busy working mum with 3 kids who are all fairly fussy, sometimes I need some convenient food otherwise I'd go crazy. They get plenty of fruit/veg given to them. I'm choosing to read labels because I don't want to fill my kids up with artificial stuff etc and that's my choice. I enjoy doing my food shopping and if it takes me longer because of that, that's also my choice 😊 If you're finding the hauls boring, just don't tune in to the next one if you don't want to 🙂 but out of interest, what would make them more interesting to you??
if you google "salad dressing cheat sheet" you get a very easy to follow photo chart of ways to make your own dressings (including creamy ones). Dressings are so easy to make and taste exactly how you want with the ingredients you want. One of my go to vinaigrettes is using juice as my acid (and sugar), oil of choice, a smidge of mustard to help emulsify, salt/pepper and italian seasoning

Thank you so much ❤️ that's really nice of you to say xx
Claire Xantham gum is fine. It means gluten free as well. You cant taste it. It is used to thicken and stabilise food xx
You my love are NOT boring I love the chat honestly I can go anywhere and watch shopping hauls but you have your personality and own stamp on it and I love it 🥰🙏🏼❤️
Thank you so much Leanne ❤️
Definitely not boring hun! I love your shopping hauls and seeing what you've got plus the chat too! Keep doing what you're doing! 😘 xx
Aw thank you so much ❤️
Absolutely love your videos, you are not boring! It's so tricky balancing feeding your family healthy food Vs needing to keep your sanity on busy days. Life is about balance. Nothing wrong with some convenience foods when needed xx
Aw thanks so much Claire! Definitely is about finding a balance, especially on those busy days! Xx
You aren't boring at all!! I find myself giggling away which I don't do on other food haul videos! 😂 x
Haha well I'm glad you don't find me boring 😅 ☺️x

I really like these types of videos. Trying to reduce UPF on a budget is hard. I get so many ideas from you xx
I'm glad it's helping. It is so hard to do it in a budget, my shopping has gone up a fair bit! Xx
Claire, your not boring, laughing.

I am coeliac and a lot of my foods contain xantham gum
She's usually OK with milk, and has been fine with whole milk in the past. We thought she might have a lactose intolerance when she about 2 (but turned out she was really constipated and once that was gone she was fine!) I have a feeling it may have been a bit of a bug.

I won't worry too much about the xanthum gum, like you say, everything in moderation 👍xx
You are right , it is a minefield !
Don’t beat yourself up , it has taken
Me a long time to wean myself off
All
Refined sugar products
And
Processed ones , but I have the time to cook from scratch and I don’t have children at home anymore , I would like to eat all organic but that is very expensive
Organic is expensive 💸 Well done to you though for eating so cleanly 👍x
Your one of the best bloggers please don’t change any thing x
One of the best? THE best!
Aww thank you ♥️
Aw thanks so much Pauline ♥️
No I don't find u boring I love ur chats xx great haul
Thank you ❤️ 😊
You are surely not boring u r just being u and that's great 😊
Thanks ♥️
Really good haul. 🎉 I prefer the belvita breakfast biscuits, I’ve tried the Aldi version and they have a bitter/burnt aftertaste.
Yeah the Belvita ones are nicer aren't they! And my kids prefer the choc chips and aldi don't do them. Also, I prefer the ingredient list on the belvita ones, i think there's less junky stuff in them. Although I only buy them occasionally for the kids when I see them on offer in tesco/poundland 😊
Barn eggs are fine. It’s because of the avian flu. They still have room to roam it’s just all indoors. I buy those eggs are their fine.
Thank you ❤️
Yes it is a hard call to make. Especially with tummy things. No fever. It could be a one off movement.
Yeah she was fine after a couple of days. Weird 🤷♀️
I very much enjoy all of your videos, never boring 😊
Thank you ❤️
My 8 year old wanted to watch this video with me abd she said that your not boring. Lol
Oh bless her, thank you ❤️
You are not boring at all. I love to see your video's. Im in Orlando Florida. It's fascinating to see the low prices there but I know cost of living is so different everywhere.

@ClaireyV wow! How funny, that is right up the street. Small world.
Try the world food section for sauerkraut etc usually cheaper x
Thank you! Hadn't thought about that actually x

Hi Claire, enjoy your hauls. Boring isn’t a word I’d use to describe you, change boring to interesting.
Best Wishes to you and your family. A
Thank you! Have a lovely weekend xx
Love ur chats
Thanks ♥️
Claire, I feel the same way about big sweet potatoes, always buy small ones if I can as I get worried I'll cut myself 🤣
Glad I'm not the only one!! 🙂 xx
I would’ve left the cucumber… you never know what someone’s done with that in a hotel room 😅😂
🤣🤣 it was all wrapped up don't worry! 🤣
@@MumLifeAndMore 😂😂
you're interesting and funny xx
Thanks mum ♥️🤣
Btw you are not boring in any way but I do think you are getting too hung up on ingredients. We eat healthily due to health issues but the only thing I check for is gluten xx
Thanks ♥️
We're just trying to cut down the ultra-processed foods, hence the ingredient checking and researching ☺️ x
@@MumLifeAndMore I understand I also have to check out sugars as Dave is type 1 diabetic. Who said shopping was easy lol xx
Gee frozen chicken nuggets would cost us $8 a bag
Wow that is expensive!! 😳
Greetings from germany
Have an great tuesday evening

Hello 👋 Thanks so much for watching ☺️x
Barn eggs are not much better than from caged birds to be honest!
Well, I guess I won't be getting them again then. Although it said on the Internet that all free-range chickens were recently laying 'barn eggs' because of the avian flu outbreak?
@@MumLifeAndMore yes that’s true - they were on lockdown like we were 😁
@@josmith4173 think I'll just stick to the ones that say free-range from now on, no confusion there!
Disagree sorry…barn hens have freedom caged hens do not and they are fed totally differing types of food
@HelenRitchie-38 I never knew that just buying eggs would be such an ethical minefield 🙈 caged eggs should be banned, that's cruel. Barn eggs sound nicer, free-range, even better, and organic = financial goals 😅 but at the end of the day we're all just trying to put food on the table aren't we xx
I used to love your hauls but they are getting boring. Most people don't have the time to check labels. At the end of the day with price of food they just want to feed their children the best they can. A lot of the food you buy are convenient foods 😢
Maybe convenient but sometimes when kids are fussy its difficult. Claire is trying to change eating habits
To be honest, as a busy working mum with 3 kids who are all fairly fussy, sometimes I need some convenient food otherwise I'd go crazy. They get plenty of fruit/veg given to them.
