[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Chunky Minestrone & Bacon Soup

I have never tried Marks and Spencers Soup range before so tried the Marks and Spencers Chunky Minestrone & Bacon Soup because it was reduced.

The soup was surprisingly filling and truly chunky as described as there were lots of Borlotti beans, chunky tomato pieces like the plum tomatoes you find in the cans.
As for the taste, you could taste the smokiness of the bacon as well as the richness of the tomatoes so it was definitely a wholesome soup.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Plant Kitchen coconut dhal with roasted tofu

The Marks and Spencers Plant Kitchen range has been quite a success and there are so many options in the range from pasta to desserts.
This time tried the Marks and Spencers Plant Kitchen coconut dhal with roasted tofu.
I loved the firm chunks of tofu which were filling as well as delicious while the sauce had a great taste of coconut as well everything from the curry leaves to the tomatoes.

[Review] McVities Jaffa Cakes Pineapple

I love pineapple so when I heard about the McVites Pineapple Jaffa Cakes I had to get them.

Found them at co-op for a pound so got them.

Inside the box, they look the same with the words P-APPLE on the wrapper.

The first few Jaffa Cakes were damaged and ugly for the photo.

Ate a few until I found a good one to photo.

To be honest, they were so delicious, I didn't mind scoffing a few as the light sponge was delicious with the pineapple jelly centre and dark chocolate.
Definitely will be getting these again because they are so addictive and not cloyingly sweet compared to Marks and Spencers Jaffa cakes if you have tried them.
I am now tempted to try the Polish DELICJE SZAMPANSKIE Jaffa Cakes because they have some interesting flavours like peach would could be good but hopefully I will not be let down by the chocolate.

Also tried the Jaffa Cakes 5 Pineapple Cake Bars but I was really disappointed with these pineapple cake bars because the pineapple smell was rather artificial and it was so strong that you could smell it through the wrapper without even opening it.
The cake bars were so different to the Pineapple Jaffa Cakes

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Dark chocolate and Cherry Jaffa cakes

I was feeling peckish after dinner in TST so went to Marks and Sparks.
The Jaffa cake is basically a layer of Genoise sponge base, a layer of orange jelly coated in chocolate.
Discovered the Dark chocolate and Cherry Jaffa cakes so I had to get it because the cherry is a new invention.

The pack was a strange because it was twin packs which didn't really say on the packaging.
All of the packs on the shelf were twin packs.

Anyway, I couldn't wait to eat the Jaffa cake and it was delicious.
It tastes a bit like a black forest cake but the cherry jelly was not tart enough.

On the receipt, there is a 10% discount if you share your shopping experience at Marks and Sparks on tellmands which I did because I love shopping at Marks and Sparks but the incentive is rather useless because you have to spend $500-1000 to use that 10% discount.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Raspberry Jaffa Cakes

The Jaffa cake is basically a layer of Genoise sponge base, a layer of orange jelly coated in chocolate.
In 2016, Marks and Spencers had the Dark chocolate and Cherry Jaffa cake which tasted like blackforest cake but the cherry jelly was not tart enough.
Now they have this new Raspberry Jaffa Cake which I decided to try as well, there is also lemon and lime which I hope to try later.
The raspberry is really fragrant and quite tart compared to the cherry so I really liked it.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Coronation Chicken Deli Filler

Coronation Chicken Deli Filler curry flavour chicken mayonnaise with apricots and raisins.

I was really surprised by the Marks and Spencers Coronation Chicken Deli Filler because it was really filling in the sense that there were big chunky pieces of chicken in it.
The taste of the curry had a mild heat complemented by the fruitiness of the apricots and raisins.
After trying Marks and Spencers Coronation Chicken Deli Filler, I am tempted to try other brands to see if you get as much chicken as Marks and Spencers as I was just expecting shreds of chicken.
