Speculoos Addiction: Follow Up

Speculoos

A few days ago I confessed my uncontrollable addiction for Speculoos sandwich spread (or as it is known by its street name: Speculoos Paste). It was a big step for me to go public about my problem. The reactions I got were divided. Some of you shared stories about having the same addiction; others were disgusted by the thought of such a thing. I thought that between you I might find some measure of help and support in quitting and getting clean.

So how did you decide to help me? What did you think was the best approach, knowing full well that I would sell a kidney to get a single jar of the stuff? You told me about this…

Stuart

Stuart is an accident prone Englishman who has been living in the Netherlands since 2001. Even his move to the country was an unintentional accident, the result of replying to a cryptic job advertisement he found one day in a local British magazine. Since then he has learned to love the Dutch (so much so that he married one of them) and now calls the country home. He started the blog Invading Holland in 2006 as a place to share his strange stories of language misunderstandings, cultural confusions and his own accident prone nature.
