Cherry Ripe by Cadbury

Tried the Cherry Ripe which is Australian, I was attracted to it because I love coconut and cherries, however it was slightly different to how I expected it to be.

It tasted the same as a Bounty bar and there were no cherry pieces, which I was hoping to find.

The filling in the middle was just pink.

Cherry Ripe is a brand of chocolate bar currently manufactured by Cadbury Australia. Introduced by the Australian confectionery manufacturer "MacRobertson's" in 1924, it is now Australia's oldest chocolate bar and is one of the top chocolate bar brands sold in the country.

It consists of cherries and coconut coated with dark chocolate.

CHOKITO by Nestle

The Chokito bar is a bar made with chewy caramel fudge, crunchy balls and loads of chocolate.

I found it too sweet and the fudge in the middle was very sugary.

Almond Joy by Peter Paul

Tried Almond Joy which was a very sweet chocolate bar, inside the packet were two smaller bars.

Basically it tasted exactly the same as a Bounty bar but with an extra whole almond on top.

Almond Joy is a candy bar manufactured by Hershey's. It consists of a coconut-based center topped with two almonds, the combination enrobed in a layer of milk chocolate. 

3 Musketeers coconut bar

Tried the coconut version of the 3 Musketeers, I could not really taste the coconut and found it rather sweet. It tasted similar to a British milky way.

Luckily, in the packet it was two smaller bars so you do not have to finish it in one go.

3 Musketeers is a candy bar made in the United States by Mars, Incorporated. It is a chocolate-covered fluffy whipped chocolate bar.

Originally, it had three pieces in one package, flavored chocolate, strawberry and vanilla, hence the name.

Rising costs and wartime restrictions on sugar saw the phasing out of the vanilla and strawberry pieces to leave only the more popular chocolate.

Lim Meng Kee Lobster and pork jerky

Usually Asian jerky is made of pork, but the one from Lim Meng Kee is made of Lobster.

After checking their website, the lobster contains pork as well.

They also have chicken, black pepper chicken and pork belly jerky too.

The taste of this lobster and pork jerky was the same as the usual Asian jerky, however there was less stringy and chewy bits.

I would have liked it if it was less sweet.

Midnight milky way ( US version)

As I am British I never knew that the American version of the Milky Way was different until I came across it elsewhere.

The British version has always been a blue wrapper with stars just like a milky way and American version is larger made of chocolate-malt nougat topped with caramel and covered with milk chocolate and is very similar to the Mars bar.

Anyway, I managed to get my hands on the US version so I chose the Midnight because it is covered in dark chocolate.

On biting it, the filling is distinctively clear with two layers, a caramel layer and a white layer.

The taste was really nice and similar to a MARs bar.

Smile Food :Me Mi Nori

This seaweed snack was quite cute because in this small pack of fried seaweed, there is a tiny sachet of sauce.

It is basically tempura seaweed, however when you eat it, there is not much seaweed taste.

It tastes ok without the sauce, but when you put the sauce it tastes much nicer, but the sauce is slightly spicy as the sauce is sweet and spicy.

In the packet, there are about three pieces of seaweed.
