It's time for a round-up of all the best Christmas food we have seen. We recommend buying and eating as many of these as soon as possible.

A staple of the in-laws Christmas snacks, the After Eight box has had a design upgrade this year. Don't pay £5 for it though! You can get it in Tesco for only £3.

This is amazing. Adam bought one to take to the in-laws, and has had to since buy two more as he keeps eating all the cheese. The best flavour is the pepper and cranberry Boursin.

Christmas donuts: the tree has a creme filling, and the Santa's belt and snowman are also delicious.

McDonald's Festive Pie took a downturn last year with a chocolate caramel monstrosity, but this year it is back to the fruit and custard, albeit in a green-tinged Grinch-themed makeover. Still tasty.

Sprout croquettes from Nandos. Delicious. Don't try to share a bowl, get your own.

In memory of the beige buffet at school, here are the treats of beige on a tshirt.

I'm going after that Boursin trio too. The black pepper one is delish

Hello! We've sort of lost count, but think the first Advent Calendar was back in 2003, the Internet Archive Wayback Machine says it looked like this: Of course all the links are dead, but the thing it has in common with this year's is that it is still coded in HTML, probably the last thing I will ever rely on coding for. Now it looks like this: Happy Advent! We have gone for the Bonne Maman JAM Calendar again this year, after leaving it too late last year and it selling out at both Fenwick and Selfridges! We get a fresh pot of jam every day to enjoy with our tartines and Ovomaltines. We also have the Domino's "Merry Crustmas" leaflet, and a MUJI calendar we'll show you later in the month. Do let us know what you are opening every day! You can leave a message below, or email us your ideas and suggestions for future days at robotmaths@outlook.com Have a great day!
