Mr Singh's Chilli crisps - Vegan

Mr Singh's Chilli Crisps @mrsinghsldn I love crisps so was really looking forward to trying these because it is a marriage of spices and English flavours. The one I couldn't wait to try was the Spicy Bacon & Brown sauce. Before I talk about the flavours, I really enjoyed the crisps because they are thick cut with the skin left on which gives its more punch.
They reminded me of McCxys flat thick cut crisps at one point which is good. Moving on to the flavours each one was unique and bold. Spicy Bacon & Brown Sauce As expected, I really liked them as you got strong bacon vibes and a lovely brown sauce kick with a mild spicy aftertaste. Chilli, Lemon & Cracked Salt Definitely fiery like other Indian brands eg Lxys Masala magic. The crisps are literally red with anger but the lemon could have been stronger! Spicy Tandoori Chicken These had roast chicken aroma as well as curry. Again quite spicy but enjoyable as these are comforting like a a curry and roast chicken. Chilli, Cheese & Onion These were another winner if you like cheese and onion. The onion flavour was nice and prominent, the chilli was mild and even better with thick cut crisps.

Made in Old Stead root vegetable mince pies

I was really lucky to get my hands on these different yet delicious mince pies.
These are made with root vegetables which give it a different texture and taste so they were certainly memorable.
The parsnips and beetroots had a chew yet it was like candied papaya and then you get this strong alcoholic taste in it as well as cinnamon and spices.





Lidl toffee filled yum yum

Not nice, taste and texture was just not nice and it tastes like something that has been fried and sitting there for a while.
Some at the back were flat as pancakes but I did see people poke them with tongs.



Lidl pain au double chocolat

Omg, this was delicious because the pastry is chocolate flavoured so it masks away that savoury buttery taste.






Lidl newgate express speedy noodle aka pot noodle dupe

This was horrible, nothing like the Pot Noodle original or aldi's dupe.
They were really sweet and the soy sauce didn't help.
I seemed to taste dill even though ingredients say chives.










Aldi The Deli cornichons with herbs

Cravings for cornichons satisfied.
Loved the tangyness that was not too sharp.





Aldi infused The fishmonger smoked salmon with lemon and black pepper

Again, good smoked salmon to my liking not too heavily smoked or salty.
Tasted great in a baguette.

Tesco white stilton with mango and ginger

Sweet and savoury crumbly cheese with delicious chunks of mango and ginger.
Oddly moreish on its own.


yum yum noodles from Thailand under the anijimoto brand

yum yum noodles from Thailand, these were sent to me from pwc.
Visually as well as the contents, they reminded me of mama noodles.
Inside there is a soup powder, an oil and some flavours contain chilli powder.
Beef was my favourite as you can taste lots of different spices and the broth was flavourful.
The chicken was too garlicky while the duck was disappointing as it wasn't as flavourful as other brands.
Again it was a bit too sweet as well as garlicky.

For Lidl Vitasia week, they had the whole range so I got the vegetable and shrimp to try.
Yum yum vegetable and shrimp noodles from Lidl Vitasia week.
Vegetable flavour:
This was nice as expected and reminded me of Sainsburys instant noodle vegetable flavour which has a strong celery taste.
I loved the bits of dehydrated wakame seaweed which has that Japanese kick to it.
Shrimp flavour:
The shrimp flavour was really different, it turned out to be a tom yum lemongrass base but then this is a Thai noodle so it isn't surprising but a surprise if you are not familiar with Thai food.

Mr Whippy ice cream cup cakes

Thank you Mr Whippy for sending me these cupcakes.
These are available at Home Bargains and Iceland.
I love the flake and white icing which has that Mr Whippy ice cream vibe.


[Fruit] Green figs

These green figs were not really ripe so the texture was crunchy and rubbery with a strange coconutty taste.
They were not sweet but that was expected.
