Dear Tara……
This post is for Week 8 of the Gallery over at Sticky Fingers . The topic is ‘7 Deadly Sins’
**************
Dear Tara,
As you know, I really enjoy your fabulous Gallery. I have seen some wonderful pictures & got to know lots of lovely ‘virtual’ people.
I thought this week’s theme of ‘& Deadly Sins’ was VERY hard! I really couldn’t think of anything so I asked my OH. He is very clever but even he was stumped. So, I thought I’d better do some research & I have managed to do something. Before I show you though, you must remember that it is not my fault because a) it was in the research and b) you set the theme!
MAGNUM’s ‘7Deadly Sins’
This range was launched in 2003 & caused quite a stir among religious groups. They saw it as a cheap marketing trick using the Deadly Sins which were important to the church.
They adapted the names slightly to accommodate the various flavours which were:
Sloth – Peanut & chocolate shell / Caramel ice cream
Vanity (Pride) – White chocolate shell / champagne ripple ice cream
Greed – Dark Chocolate shell / Coffee ice cream
Gluttony – White chocolate shell / dark chocolate ice cream
Revenge (Wrath) – Red chocolate shell / dark chocolate ice cream
Lust – Pink chocolate shell / vanilla ice cream
Jealousy (Envy) – Dark chocolate with pistachio nut shell / pistachio ice cream.
Unfortunately, they are no longer available as it was a limited edition but which one would you choose if you could? I would buy you them all to make up for cheating!
I hope you won’t be too cross but I did do lots of research!
Your virtual friend
Julia

*Tugs forelock* Sorry M’Lady! I did apologise but it was fun!
Great post! I’d have to go for Greed though.
When the mood takes me, I’ll go for anything!
Thanks for dropping by!
Hee hee I love that. I’d go for Gluttony as it has to be chocolate ice cream for me. Slurp. 😀
I’m with you there! Anything with chocolate gets my vote!
Love your interpretation. But not as much as I love Magnums. Could I please have one of each? x
You certainly can! Thank you so much or popping by!
Yummy! That was a great idea for the theme.
Thank you! I have to say I was quite pleased with myself. There are some fab ones out there though this week! Thank you for popping by!
LOL-this was a very good take on it!
I was relieved to find something. It was a VERY hard theme!
I’ll have Lust please . . .
Cheating? Pah, it’s all about interpretation. Plus you’ve made my mouth water!
Aw thank you! Glad you liked it!
Ha! Well done…I’ve probably do them all, ‘cept the coffe 🙂
I’m not keen on mint ice cream but like the nuts!1
Genius. Perfect
