Batchelors Pasta n Sauce American style Mac n Cheese Bacon Flavour review

I love Mac and Cheese so when I spotted the new Bacon flavour American style Mac and Cheese by Batchelors I decided to give it a go.

All you do is add milk and water and gently boil for 5 minutes.

At first, it seemed like forever because the macaroni was not absorbing the milk and water.

The smell to begin with was not that pleasant but after a while it began to look like mac and cheese.

Taste wise, it was rather bland and virtually no bacon flavour at all but visually you could find 3 - 4 cubes of bacon.

[findus] Birdseye Crispy beef and onion & Ham and Mozzarella pancakes review

I was brought up with Findus Crispy Pancakes so I really like them.
Back in those days there were quite a few flavours like Chicken and Mushroom, Beef and Onions and I think there was curry chicken.

Findus no more because they are now sold under Birds Eye and the flavours are different.

The current flavours are cheese and ham, cheese and tomato.

Both contain Mozzarella which was why I didn't try them because I don't like stringy tasteless mozzerella.

As a fan of Findus crispy pancakes, I was so elated they now have my fave minced beef flavour so I got them for lunch.

Visually, they still look the same but there was quite a bit of oil in them when probably helps to make them crispy in the oven.

Taking a bite so many years later, the exterior part was still the same, crispy breadcrumbs on the outside with a soft middle and filling.

The beef and onion filling was quite different from the product picture because looked like curry sauce and the minced beef was more finely grounded than the picture.

Overall, even though the filling was different, I am glad they have the beef and onion.

Hopefully, they will do the chicken curry and chicken and mushroom.

I also ended up getting the birdseye crispy pancakes ham and mozzarella.

To be honest, the cheese and ham didn't taste bad but I hated the addition of mozzarella because its like having discarded chewing gum that's stuck to table mixed in with it.

Asians might like it though because their definition of cheese is stringy, tasteless and chewy.

Taylor's Red Velvet Pancake Mix review

Pancakes have always been pancakes, but Taylor's have taken them to the next level because you can get different flavour mixes like Salted caramel, chocolate and even Red Velvet so I got the red velvet because it is not something that you can make yourself.

The mixture was quite good but not all of it was properly mixed so there were still some lumps.

It was fairly easy to flip but there was some slight bitter taste.

Overall, they were good and not too sweet.

Chocolate Navel Orange

Not new but Navel Chocolate oranges were discovered as a mutation growing on a navel orange tree in Valencia, Spain, in 2006.
They are aromatic and contain a low level of acidity, which creates a very sweet flavor.

Tesco custard slices review

 After trying the Sainsburys and M&S custard slice, I decided to try the TESCO version to see how it fared. Unfortunately it was my least favourite out of the three because the custard was too thick and it was too milky in taste with a somewhat powdery texture.
