VONO Tomato and Cream soup pasta

Tastes like canned tomato soup, but not as creamy as its name suggests.
Overall not bad.



Sainsbury's chocolate chip and nut chewy and crispy bars






















A lovely chewy bar by Sainsbury's, each layer is clearly defined, you can see the scrumptious caramel at the centre and chocolate chips on top.
It is nice and chewy as stated and there is a strong peanut taste.

Japanese cinnamon vanilla coffee


Was given this from someone but without the packaging, so I am clueless on how to make this coffee because I hardly drink coffee anyway, but when I opened it up, the coffee was nicely packaged in a bag with paper holdalls around it.
Anyway, I pulled the paper and I think it was meant to stand in a cup, so I did that and pour hot water into the centre to let it drip.
Then I did the usual business of adding sugar and creamer and was amazed it tasted nice because I do not drink coffee. However I could not taste any cinnamon or vanilla.
Or I may have made it wrong and the coffee should have tasted stronger.
But nevertheless, it did not have a weird aftertaste nor did it make my mouth go sour.

Nile spice couscous lentil curry soup





From the Nile spice couscous soup range, I have only tried the minestrone one and the Lentil curry.
The minestrone flavour was not that strong hence the couscous had some strange taste to it.
Anyway, the curry in this one was strong which took away the strange taste.
There were generous amounts of lentils in it.
If you prefer the couscous texture soft, then stand it for an extra few minutes.

A nice wholesome soup by Nile Spice containing cous cous.

Madam Pearl's Tea throat candy - Oolong tea flavour





Madam Pearl's is a brand of cough syrup in Hong Kong and now they have throat candies.
Anyway I just tried it for fun and there were two flavours: Jasmine, Oolong tea.
Previously wrote about the Jasmine flavour which tends to taste sweeter.
The Oolong flavour tastes much better and the tea taste is stronger with a cooling minty taste as well.

Madam Pearl's Tea throat candy - Jasmine tea flavour

Madam Pearl's is a brand of cough syrup in Hong Kong and now they have throat candies.
Anyway I just tried it for fun and there were two flavours: Jasmine, Oolong tea.

When I opened it, the candy was bright green. It had more colouring than I expected.

I found it very sweet and it tasted like the Taiwanese Jasmine teas from the Taiwanese beverage joints.

I preferred the Oolong flavour.
