[Review] Morrisons Redskin Peanuts

I have never been a fan of peanuts because the ones I have had were either rancid or too crunchy and basically they are just not tasty.
One afternoon, there was a lovely smell coming from the kitchen from these spices and to my surprise peanuts were being roasted.

The roasted peanuts were so tasty and the texture was to my liking as they were not too crunchy with a chew.

These roasted peanuts have inspired a next batch with different flavourings such as fermented red beancurd and also Sichuan flavours.

These peanuts were boiled in salt, pepper, cloves and aniseed before being roasted in the oven and once you eat them you can't stop.

Khatta Meetha by Haldiram’s

I love Bombay mixes so my colleague got me this from India.

It is a sweet and sour mix hence the name Khatta Meetha and it contains rice flakes, chick peas, peanuts, sago, red lentils.

The curry flavour is there without being too spicy with a delicious sweet and sour taste just like Chinese sweet and sour and the mix is extremely light and not oily compared to other brands.
It comes in a good packaging that is well labelled with nutrition values and ingredients.

Emerald Sweet & Salty Mixed Nut Blend Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter

I am not a fan of nuts, but these nuts were great.

It is a blend of sweet and salty mixed nuts, but to me it all tasted sweet.

In the pack were peanuts, pecans and cocoa roasted almonds.
It was fun eating them because there was a hint of peanut butter taste in it and the almonds were roasted in cocoa powder.
The pecan nuts were the best because it was glazed in chewy coating.

YUKI & LOVE Chocolate Mochi with milk and peanut

Saw these mochis that were coated with chocolate so decided to get them.

There were three flavours peanut, sesame and red beans.

Peanut was the least disliked flavour of the three so I got that.

The product shot was quite confusing because you couldnt tell if they were heart shaped or bar shaped.

In the box they were individually packed and there is a tray inside containing the mochi and a dessicant.

Overall I really liked it and it was not too sweet, however I do  not recommend it during the summer because the chocolate coating melts and in Asian countries, not all shops are well air conditioned.

Even if they are well air conditioned, the air conditioner is switched off when they closed.

The mochi was chewy and quite sticky.

Indonesian garlic peanut crunchies

Tried these coated peanuts which come convenient packed in small packs.

The peanuts inside are slightly smaller than the usual peanuts the coating on the outside is thicker which is really nice because it tastes really garlicky.

Three seeded peanut!

Peanuts are usually constricted between pairs of the one to four (usually two) seeds per pod.
(according to wikipedia)
In this case, I got three!! which is quite rare!
