As the ingredients list bears little relation to the contents then I have prepared a key...

Please present your count for each item as follows

Total number of:
Burgers
Peanuts
Ikea dowels
Clouds
Sleeping bags
Sharks teeth
Rice
Large white eggs
Brown eggs
Blue/Green eggs
Orange eggs

Any broken item over 5mm long will be considered count worthy so take into account all broken pieces when submitting your scores

There will be 10 points for each correct item and 5 for the nearest guess, so a whopping 110 points total. Anyone can still win, apart from me :o

Good luck

Ffs 🀣🀣🀣 brilliant I reckon this might be the strangest yet πŸ‘πŸ˜πŸ‘

Burgers 18
Peanuts 33
Ikea dowels 30
Clouds 20
Sleeping bags 18
Sharks teeth 21
Rice 62
Large white eggs 8
Brown eggs 6
Blue/Green eggs 7
Orange eggs 9

233 items in total (if thats a thing in this count)

This is certainly a way of catching that bloke at the top πŸ˜‰.

Wonder if I will be accused of "Cheating" by Moronic Leggings in this count if I by some weird touch of fate get something right 🀣.

Cheers Croydon crackers subject πŸ˜‰

I am loathe to award any points for the rice or peanuts as nobody got even remotely close but the terms of the Versailles Treaty dictate that I have to πŸ˜‰

So, with one outstanding entrant this week proving that a blanket approach is better than any scientific b****cks:

Bosscat: 5 points
Eloise Laws: 10 points
bfcjg: 15 points
Bigf: 10 points
Rick_muller: 30 points
addisclaret: 5 points
AGENT_CLARET: 15 points
greenparrot: 10 points
Dingle dangle: 5 points
Claret Georgina: 15 points
Longsider: 5 points
claretblue: 20 points
Croydon Claret: 57πŸ˜‰ points for the doing the count πŸ˜…

I will leave it to Claretmisterg, or Muric Leggings, to announce the worthy winner of this year's food count.
