[Review] Sainsbury's Sweet Potato

Although I am not really keen on Sweet Potatoes I ended up getting a bag from Sainsburys.
Sweet potatoes are just weird because they are sweet.
I always eat them first of last if they are on my plate.
However having sweet potatoes with salted caramel icecream or clotted cream is such a good pairing inspired by the Japanese sweet potato dessert with icecream.

As well as having it as a dessert, I had them roasted and they tasted great on their own just like the ones you get from street vendors in Hong Kong!

M&S Sweet Potato chips vs Sainsbury's Sweet Potato Fries vs Waitrose Crispy Sweet Potato Slices

Recently, I tried M&S Sweet Potato chips, Sainsbury's Sweet Potato Fries and Waitrose's Crispy Sweet Potato Slices so I thought I would compare them.
The only one that cannot be compared like to like are the Waitrose Crispy sweet potato slices because of the shape but in terms of texture, they were dry.
As for Sainsbury's sweet potato fries, they visually looked good but they were hard and crunchy like carrots.
So the winner is Marks and Spencers Sweet Potato chips which were moist and soft and they tasted like they were roasted from fresh.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Sweet Potato Chips

I am not really keen on Sweet potatoes because they are sweet especially as chips.
Saying that, Sweet potato chips are really popular in the US and have been trending a while at burger places.
I have had them before at restaurants but I definitely prefer chips any time as the sweet potato fries have been laced with too much salt and at some restaurants the quality was dry because they have been in the fridge for too long.
Anyway, I am so glad that I tried Marks and Spencers Sweet Potato Chips which were totally a different story as they were lightly seasoned.
The texture of the sweet potatoes were moist and you get the full flavour of sweet potatoes which is so different from those deep fried ones served at the restaurants.
To summarize I would probably get this again but there are so many new products at M&S that I ended picking something different each time I go.

Trappist Dairy Sweet potato Fat milk drink

I am not that keen on Sweet potato flavoured drinks because they can taste quite artificial and I think that artificial taste is like Playdoh!!!!
The sweet potato milk by Trappist dairy was not that bad and quite palatable.

Marunaga Sweet potato icecream

I was attracted to this icecream because of the packaging, it appears to be a sweet potato inside.

After opening the wrapper, it looked like a real sweet potato.

The wafer shell has been cleverly made to mimick the sweet potato surface and colour.

Inside the sandwiched wafer there is icecream and sweet potato paste.

The sweet potato icecream is amazingly deliciously because the vanilla is not that sweet but with the sweet potato paste on top, the sweetness is just right.
The sweet potato paste makes it more believable as if you were really have sweet potato with icecream.

The only disappointment was that the wafer was not crispy.

Sweet potato bun

I got this bun because it was filled with purple sweet potato.

The bun just tasted like the usual pre-packed buns with a slight alcoholic preservative taste.

The sweet potato filling was quite nice and not too sweet but all the filling was clumped in the middle.
