Also my SWC just told me not to have the jacket potato and salad because it's deep fried!

NOOOOOOOO :banghead:

Your C is badly, very badly informed and should not be passing such poor and untrue info out to people

Its a disgrace that SW employees are still spouting this rubbish off as true. SW have been made well aware of the situation by Wetherspoons yet ignorant misinformed people are still claiming this to be true
 
Also direct from Wetherspoons:


Thank you for your web form dated 21st November and for taking the time to contact us.

We appreciate you advising other people that our jacket potatoes are not deep-fried.

We have addressed this issue on many occasions with various representatives from Slimming World, however the correct information does not always reach everyone.
 
The jackets from weatherspoons are 1.5 syns, it says online on slimming world website

I think the 5 bean chilli without the nacho's is free, if not its def very low syn

You may want to point out to her that SW say this is untrue and maybe suggest she stops passing it on as true

Thanks Starlight! TBH I've never really believe they were deep fried, but you go with what your SWC says as you want to keep to plan! I shall not fear the jacket potatoes anymore, lol! I think SW maybe need to bring this up again in their meetings to make sure the message gets across.

But don't get me wrong my SWC is brilliant and so encouraging and I wouldnt be doing this now of it wasn't for her! But I still like to check on here if I don't think something quite right! She told me balsamic vinegar was 2 SYNS a tbs. So I checked the book and "all vinegars" are free! Technically all food will have a value if u put it though the calculator anyway! There was no need to put it in the calculator. Anyway thank you do much again for confirming that the jackets are not fried, lol!

This one I didn't fall for, lol! It's scary how much mis-information gets spread! Surely if SW have said this is untrue that should be the end of it, all SWC should give out the same answer?!

I told a friend in Uni that this wasn't true (as well as the deep fried potato story) but she was convinced it was true as her consultant told her. This was less that a month ago!

5 bean chilli with rice and tortillas is 6 syns now and has been for a while. Still well worth the syns though as it's gorgeous :)

Ah- good to know. Had they upped the tortilla amount or are there Syns in the chilli now?

I'd like to get a potato deep fry the thing and lob it at the next SWC who tells this blooming story.

PMSL - at least no one came back saying ' my boyf/friend/brother/ etc worked in weatherspoons & they do deep fry their jacket potatoes'
