Dr.Will's All classic mayo sugar free

I love mayonnaise so much that I have it with chips etc.
However I didn't know it contained sugar until I recently tried Dr Wills because mayo never tasted sweet.
Visually rather warm yellow, the mayo was sharp and creamy which a taste like salad cream minus the sweetness and the consistently was also like salad.
Definitely another mayo on my favourite list that is healthy.




Just for fun, I mixed it with Nortindal cuttlefish ink to make squid ink mayo.


357 Mad Dog hot sauce - 750,000 scoville

The 357 Mad Dog hot sauce was inside someones fridge so I thought I'd give it a try.
I only tried a pin prick amount and it was so hot that it resonates in the whole of your mouth let alone if I had swallowed it!!
To be honest, the spiciness felt more like a chemical burn.
 






GU Hazelnut and chocolate velvety spread

GU are famous for pudding so their chocolate spreads got me curious!
To be honest, I was bowled over by how decadent they were and it tasted even better than nutella.




M&S Strawberry & White Chocolate crunch granola

I am not really a granola fan because of the sweetness but it is always good to see big dehydrated strawberry slices and chunks of white chocolate.





Stockholm Organic Sea Buckthorn juice

I have always wanted to try sea buckthorn juice as I haven't tried it before.
When I finally got it, I was surprised that there was oil floating on the top which is normal.
It was just fascinating how a berry (plant) can have oil.
Anyway, the juice was quite thick and strong, it tasted like concentrated orange juice but had a sharper tone without the citrus element and it was slightly bitter.
As for the oil, it explains why you get skincare made with sea buckthorn because of the oil.
Overall, I am glad I tried this drink.



Hershey's Cookies N Cream Filled crepes

There are so many ready to eat filled crepes these days and you can get Hershey's cookies and cream as well.
As with all these ready to eat crepe, the texture of the crepe is rather hard and dry.
Warming it the microwave didn't quite help.
The filling was crispy and crunchy against the chewy crepe so it was interesting however I am not a fan of cookies and cream so found it too sugary for my liking.




Modern Gourmet Candied Tea Bombs

As well as chocolate bombs, baths bombs there are tea bombs to indulge in which I spotted at Tescos.
However they were made in China which is surprising.
Anyway, as a tea lover I had to give them ago.
The packaging has good and bad points because the tea bombs are well protected but do stick to the plastic when you take them out, so you have to take them out carefully to avoid breaking them.
Basically they are hollow candy spheres filled with tea.
They melt when hot water is added releasing the contents.
There are 2 each of lemon ginger and rose.
Both were too sweet so you could probably get two cups out of one tea bomb.
The lemon ginger was quite nice visually as well as the taste but you couldn't really taste the ginger, it was more like lemon sherbet candy.
The rose tea was just like sweet rose soap with rose buds floating about.
Overall, worth the experience but would love to see some better quality ones that taste good.
