The Daily Star reports that speaking on the Dish podcast, she said: “One of my favourite buffet snacks is a scotch egg - but a scotch egg with chocolate spread. I know, that does sound like a pregnancy craving.
“It’s like, the savoury and sweet combo. I thought ‘I can’t have them dry, that’s dirty’. So we had chocolate spread. It was lovely. I remember I was sat watching [sitcom] Bottom on the telly in just my pants, eating scotch eggs and chocolate spread. Me mum came in and went ‘this is why you haven’t got a boyfriend’. I was like, ‘actually, yeah, you’re right’.
"It was one of those realisation moments. So I feel it holds a special place in my heart, scotch eggs and chocolate spread, for helping me sort my life out."
Scarlett also told that her favourite sandwich filling is 'cheese and onion crisps' with 'sliced banana', and that she used to sprinkle Wotsits on her beans on toast as a student. On her perfect sandwich, she said: “Buttery bread, cheese and onion crisps and sliced banana.”
