[Review] Heinz Mayonnaise creamy and smooth

Hellmans is my usual mayonnaise choice but decided to try Heinz.

To be honest, I didn't like it because it tasted like creamy Heinz Salad cream which is slightly sour.

[Review] M&S Sticky Toffee Sponge Roll

I love Swiss rolls and anything with toffee so the Sticky Toffee Sponge Roll seemed like a good combination.
The description had dates which I wasn't keen on as sticky toffee should be sweet enough.
Anyway, the roll was quite firm coated in some sugar.
It was delicious to eat and luckily the taste of the dates were not strong.

I did find it a bit sweet so it was fantastic with apple puree and custard as the roll was a bit dry.

[Review] Marks & Spencers M&S Irish Farls

Farls meaning quadrant-shaped flatbreads and cakes, traditionally made by cutting a round into four pieces.
You will find Irish Soda Farls or Potato farls.
Personally I love potato farls because I am a fan of anything that is made with potatoes.
You eat them by putting them on the griddle with butter but I toast time.
They are similar to gnocchi but much softer so having melted cheddar cheese with them tastes amazing!!
They also taste good with the M&S Marmite butter.

[Review] Marks and Spencers Spicy Chicken Arrabbiata Wood Fired Pizza

In the past, M & S did some great Chili beef pizzas, now they have Spicy Chicken Arrabbiata Wood Fired Pizza which I decided to try.
In a way, it tasted similar to the chili beef.
The roquito peppers and chili definitely gave it a spicy kick.

[Review] Vivera 100% Plant Based Shawarma Kebab

I love kebabs so the Plant Based Shawarma Kebab aroused my curiosity to try.
As well as the packaged version, I found another place serving vegan kebab doners in London but after talking to them they are using a different brand so I will have to try it sometime when I get the chance.

Although the instructions say you have to heat it up, I tried a piece straight out the packet and the texture was meaty.

As for the taste it was heavily laced with the usual Middle Eastern spices so it tasted how it should taste.

I felt that the texture was a bit too chewy after it was cooked or it was possible that I over cooked it so next time I will probably try microwaving it.

[Review] Coop Irresistible Hand Finished Caramel Cake

There are not many toffee cakes, caramel cakes around these days so when I spotted this at Co-Op I decided to try it.
It was labelled as [Irresistible Hand Finished Caramel Cake - Caramel sponge filled with a salted caramel frosting, topped with a salted caramel buttercream and decorated with caramel sauce] but I believe the frosting is the hand finished part and cake was made in batches.

The sponge was firm and moist which gave a clean cut and it had a nice toffee aroma to it.

The only thing that let it down was the buttercream frosting which was a bit waxy leaving the mouth slightly oily with a plasticky film.

[Review] Jacobs Mini Cheddars blue cheese - Choose your cheese

Jacobs mini cheddars have always been mini cheddars.

Now you can get to choose by the cheese as it is available in Blue cheese,
Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, Stilton, Red Leicester and Smoked Cheddar.

The smoked cheddar is predictable that it would just taste smokey but the one I was interested in trying was Blue Cheese which is considered a strong cheese.

It came in a lovely blue packet which makes a change from Orange.

When I opened the bag, there was a lovely strong cheese smell.

As for the taste, I loved it as the cheese kick was strong and satisfying if you love cheese.

Hopefully I can get hold of Stilton and Red Leicester as well.
