Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
I want me some of that! Stupid NI, can't get anything hmpf! :(

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Note. goodnessdirect.co.uk are now listing "stuff in a tub" on their web-store but showing as "temporarily unavailable" . I expect that they are waiting for supplies..
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
It's in the "dairy ice cream" section on Goodness Direct :rolleyes: *tuts*.
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Ah, gosh! I hope they can get it in soon, so I can buy some quick...I guess you have to spend a bit though to get stuff off there. :rolleyes:
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
You have to pay for an insulated box (iirc less than a fiver, though) and buy a certain amount of frozen stuff so it maintains its frozen state, so yeah, I think it won't be cheap getting it from there.
I will be asking my local hfs to get some in, as Goodness Direct is one of their suppliers.
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
^ £3 for the box - delivery is free if you spend over £35 and they are very good. Stuff usually arrives wthin 3 days of ordering, I love 'em :) (pity about the boxes though which apparently are unrecyclable in the U.K :( )

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
I can't believe we don't have them either! Should be able to get hold of stuff in a tub tomorrow or Saturday...
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Where are you getting your from Kevster?
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
We're getting ours on Tuesday from the local health food store. Can't wait. :D
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
:mad: thats evil, stop rubbing it in. Did i mention i was coming to see you on tuesday for a friendly visit.
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Just let me know what time you are coming so I can make sure that I clean the tub before then.:D

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
well i wouldn't pay that much for anything in a tub! :eek:
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
How about for a tub full of £50 notes? :p *Is pedantic*.
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
ok i might make an exception for a tub of £50 notes :p

I've been complaining to GD about that. I bought some stuff from another supplier that came in an apparently identical box to the ones that GD use, and they supplied a label to send the box back so that they could re-use it. :confused: I wouldn't mind paying myself to send it back but they wouldn't have it.
Maybe if some more of us complain to GD they will have a rethink.

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
that's one of the reasons why i've never bought anything from Goodness Direct. it seems very wasteful to me, but luckily i can buy a lot of decent vegan foods in Brighton so i don't really need to use them.
i can't help thinking that after all this, the Booja Booja ice cream will be a bit of a disappointment. :o
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
It's only the chilled or frozen stuff that comes in the polystyrene boxes; groceries seem to come in ordinary cardboard boxes. But I can see that living in Brighton you don't need to bother with them, Gorilla :)
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
At 5 pounds a tub, it better not dissapoint! :eek: I managed to convince our local health food store to order it in for us. Can't wait til Tuesday!! :D
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
wow its that much?! yea I want to try it...but that seems a bit expensive...

Re: Favourite Vegan Food Products - UK
After reading about it on this forum, I went on a hunt for Booja Booja's "stuff in a tub" the other day, fully prepared to pay the hefty £5 price tag - I was not disappointed. I wanted to make it last a while cos it was so damn expensive, but it didn't quite last 24 hours between me and my better half.
Ah well, that's another one to add to my "occasional treat" list, along with Biona vegan cola bottles.

Re: Favourite Vegan Food Products - UK
Oooh, lucky you, bryzee. Which flavour of "stuff in a tub" did you try?
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
bryzee86 - what do you think it tastes like eg: real ice cream, haagen daaz etc? (I want to know the taste before I waste my hard earned £5 :p )
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Enchantress, I tried the hunky punky chocolate flavour - yum yum! And I felt so guiltless - it being sugar free/soya free/organic etc
Aphrodite - it tasted, in my own words, like "frozen truffles"! It was like they'd shoved their truffles in the tub, made all smooth, frozen and stuff. I don't know whether it tasted like the others, cos it's been 2 1/2 years since I last had dairy. However, I can say it was 10 times better than Swedish Glace chocolate, and 100s of times better than the (imho) frankly vile Tofutti varieties.

sorry...
Where abouts in england are you? are there no health food shops you can order it in to? Treat yourself! it may be dear, but it's worth it!

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
bryzee86 - you certainly convinced me with that description.
Now just have to find a stockist near me.

Mmmmmm...that's what I was hoping it would taste like. I shall have to nag my local shop but I think it's only been supplied to a few distributors.

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
I've asked my local to get it in :)

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
I happened upon some after a job interview a couple hours ago. Obviously can;t afford it, but being after a job interview, found an excuse hehe. I bought the chocolately one and it is GOOD!! I wondered how they would justify a fiver but it is really luxurious tasting, kinda rich but dark chocolately so not too rich. um I don't know how to explain it but I liked it. I asked the man in the shop whether he had tried it: he said that he had tried the coconut one, and a customer had tried the ginger one, and both reviews were that they were really 'gingery/coconutty' I agree... it's like flavoured times 100. I'm hoping this will mean I won't eat so much at once and it will last. However, if I get this job, I suspect the first thing I bu will be one of each flavour :P

Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Fresh & Wild in Bristol should have it in by next Friday. Harvest are looking into it, Earthbound may well stock it, and Wild Oats will probably sell it also, I'm led to believe.
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Our local health food store had a dodgy delivery - they missed out the Stuff in a Tub!! :(:(:(
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Am I going to be the only dissenter? Yes, it was luxurious, yes it was undoubtedly VERY chocolatey... but it's not really sweet enough for me... arghhh.... sorry. It's rather expensive, so I am going to work on it and try to really like it! Think I will try the others too - my local HFS has the vanilla and the coconut....
-
Re: Booja-Booja’s new ‘Stuff in a Tub’ is better than ice cream
Leeds OOTW has some in stock, i saw some there but didn't try it.

I just saw it in town today :) I walked right past it in OOTW until Kiran waved it at me! Apparently they've had it in for 2 weeks!!!!
I've just finished about 2/3 of a tub of the Hunky Punky Chocolate one. It's extremely rich and chocolatey - it definately reminds me of the Hagendaas chocolate icecream I used to love back in my pre-vegan days... That's good :D But, at £5 a tub I don't really think it's worth it. I don't think even Haagendaas is that expensive! :eek: And I was kind of expecting chunky bits in there, not just plain chocolate.
And why is that the healthier a product is and the less ingredients it has in it, the more we get ripped off for it!! :mad: The chocolate one comprises of just water, agave, nuts and cocao powder - simple. Now I just need to work out the ratios so I can have a go at making it myself!! :D
[Be warned - The more you eat, the more you want to eat. It is extremely moreish]

Correction, Wild Oats in Bristol have it in now, but only a few, and no choc flavour.
