Van Smirren cockles

I love cockles and pickled cockles are the next best when you can't get the fresh ones from seafood stalls or the seaside.
Will definitely be buying Van Smirren cockles again because they are grit free.
The vinegar it is in is nice and sharp.



Hula Hoops Big Hoops Salt and Vinegar

Basically these taste the same as regular hula hoops but the size is slightly bigger.

Egg Royale, The decadent drinkable Easter Egg liqueur [Gifted]

I totally fell in love this with Easter Egg liqueur when I first saw it at the corner shop.
That glass chocolate egg bottle is such a winner and what a way to spend Easter drinking a decadent chocolate liqueur.
You can really taste the chocolate as well as the spirit, great to go a long with Easter Eggs.
Thank you Gravity drinks for gifting me this heavenly chocolate drink which is a must for anyone who loves chocolate.

John West on the go noodles pots with canned tuna

I love trying instant noodles, pot noodles etc so I was captivated by John West on the go noodle pots because you have the fun of opening can and making some noodles in a pot!!
As well as noodles, you can get cous cous pots or pasta pots.
The four choices are:
Mediterranean Tuna Couscous Pot
Indian Tuna biryani Rice Pot
Thai Tuna green curry noodle pot
Italian tomato and herb pasta pot



I was at Tescos when I wanted to buy them and they only had Thai green curry and cous cous so I went for the Thai noodles.
The noodles were how I expected being the typical curry taste you get for noodle pots but it was fun adding the tuna from the can and it really took it to the next level making it moreish so I actually finished it.

As it was quite enjoyable, I also got the Italian tomato and herb from Morrisons.
The pasta is much better and really softens up in 5 minutes unlike other brands which are a little crispy.
The tomato flavour is a bit cheap overwhelmed by bell peppers and paprika flavours.
However adding the tuna took it to the next level making it moreish so it ended up delicious. 





Aldi Moser Roth Ruby Chocolate and Raspberry chocolate geometric egg

This is the third supermarket ruby chocolate sighting and this time it was at Aldi.
I wasn't impressed with the raspberry pairing because ruby choc itself already tastes like raspberry.
Although it could be a smart way of putting less ruby chocolate to save costs because you don't know if its the raspberry or ruby chocolate taste.
Anyway, I decided to try it for fun and it wasn't that bad.
Luckily the raspberry pieces were nicely scattered and there were not too much of it so I could appreciate and taste the ruby chocolate which was tangy and refreshing.
The only thing I didn't like was the sweeteners which have a funny aftertaste.





Monty's Lemon Cheesecake cheddar

Finally a sweet cheese that's not Wensleydale!!
Love the heart truckle so bought this to review.
The taste of this was interesting and definitely different to wensleydale which I consider it similar to cheesecake.
The texture was firm like cheddar and the taste gets you confused, its savoury cheddar and then you get lemon peel cutting through that is sweet but not the candy type of sweetness and the lemon rind taste is quite prominent.
Although named like the cheesecake, I'm glad its not as sweet and just sweet like a cheesecake with other flavours going on.
As well as lemon, they have apricot, chilli and lime.





Apricot, chilli and lime

Quavers BBQ sauce review

I love Quavers and nothing beat the original cheese.
Spotted the new Quavers BBQ sauce so I had to give them a try because I love trying new snacks.
To my surprise, they were really tasty and quite different to how I imagined.
They were smoky with a bacon taste so if you like bacon snacks then these are for you.
