Snack attack!

A sponsored post...



Apparently, the average British woman will devour 1,092 unhealthy snacks this year, from crisps, sweets and biscuits to cakes and chocolate, according to research released by Hovis Wholemeal. The study, involving 2,000 British women, reveals that an average of over 129 packets of crisps, more than 127 chocolate bars, over 77 cakes and more than 133 biscuits will be consumed by every female in 2011 alone.



To say nothing of the industrial quantities of pork scratchings I'll get through. I wonder why they didn't mention that? But then, I'm not a woman. At least, I wasn't last time I looked. But I did take part in the Hovis wholemeal challenge; I did eat their recommended breakfasts and - yes - they did seem to fill me up and prevent mid-morning snacking, in spite of the fact that the research mentions only the women who took part. I know my place. I also know that man cannot live by bread alone. And neither can woman. Or by good intentions.



So if you'd like some help from Hovis to stop snacking there's a brand new Facebook app at www.facebook.com/hovisbakery which has been developed in conjunction with Olympic gold medallist Victoria Pendleton. The Hovis Stop Snacking app will help encourage women (and men) to ditch their daily snacking vice and can be had for the price of a couple of mouse clicks right here.



Now, pass the biscuits...
