Lidl Vitasia Tofu in vegetable marinade

Spotted this tofu during Taste of Asia week at Lidl so decided to try it as the style reminds me of the flavoured tofu by Taifun.

The marinade tasted interesting because you could taste aniseed as well as Italian spices.

Overall, the tofu is well seasoned so it does not taste bland on its own.

To go with the tofu, I cooked it with some oyster mushrooms.

I liked the tofu because it was firm which is what people like in the West as opposed to the traditional soft silky texture which is not to my liking.

Mexicana vegan cheese slices with spices and Jalapeno review

Discovered these Vegan Mexicana Cheese slices at Sainsburys so decided to try them.

The texture of the slices were waxy and crumbly if you eat them like that with quite a bit of heat in them.

However, the slices tasted so much better when it was melted but they were a bit too salty yet they melted nicely like cheese.

The Vegetarian Butcher Vegan What the Cluck

The vegetarian butcher as the same suggests offers a vegetarian range of meat alternatives such as willies, burgers, meatballs and mock chicken.

While the rest are vegetarian, the mock chicken is vegan.

I got my hands on a free sample Thanks to their sponsored ad on Facebook which was collected at Coop.

The voucher is to be used at designated stores and you have to use it within 10 minutes of activation which means you can only activate it once you are at the store and have the product in your hands otherwise the voucher will become useless.

Anyway, I found the too chewy but tasted good in curry sauce because the curry sauce was good.

Still to try are the meatballs which I haven't tried yet.

vegan kitkat coming

The new vegan KitKat – called KitKat V– will be launched later in the year in several countries across the globe. It will only be available through the KitKat Chocolatory and selected retailers, to test the opportunity for a wider roll-out.

KitKat V was developed by chocolate experts in Nestlé’s confectionery research and development center in York, UK, the original home of KitKat. They worked hard to make a vegan version that would live up to the high expectations of KitKat lovers everywhere.

[Review] IKEA SJÖRAPPORT Red and Black Seaweed pearls

Since I am reviewing faux caviar (Lumpfish roe) I decided to try IKEA's version which is vegan.
There is red and black and both taste different.
When I try things, I always try them on their own to see how it tastes.

Both have been infused with dill, a popular herb in Europe.

The red one had a strong dill taste while the black one was saltier.

It has an acquired taste like marmite with an umami kick to it so its not for everyone and very different to fish caviar.

As for the texture they were like eating these seaweed pearls served in Chinese desserts,

I was expecting myself to like the black more but the red one was more flavourful.

The only gripe was the price.

Its supposed to be £1.50 according to their website but it was £1.65 in store.

After visiting the plant expo, I discovered that these seaweed pearls are made by caviart in Denmark.
