Bernard Matthews chicken drummers in 2023

As soon as I found out about the Bernard Matthews chicken drummers at Iceland I had to buy them.
They claim to give you that classic tea time feeling just like you remember so I just couldn't wait to try them. 

To be honest they were really delicious just like how they tasted.

The only thing I was lacking was beans which I'm going to buy tomorrow but they definitely taste like Classic tea times.

The texture is a bit like chicken nuggets but softer and obviously I know it is reformed chicken meat but nothing beats that nostalgic taste and feeling.

These chicken drummers are certainly good but I don't get why their Turkey drummers were so terrible I had to throw them away.

New Kettle Chips: Sriracha and Mayo, Dill Pickle and Jalapeno from KETTLE Escape Room

I was so chuffed to attend the KETTLE escape room which was on for only one weekend at Shoreditch.
After the escape, you get given the two new flavours: Sriracha Mayo, Dill pickle and Jalapeno.

Before we went in the ESCAPE room, there were samples to try.

The Dill pickle and Jalapeno was obvious because the dill was really prominent while the Sriracha was spicy.

I definitely loved the dill because you can really taste it while the jalapeno wasn't too spicy.

Fresh almonds / Green almonds

Fresh almonds (Green almonds) are in season, so as a curious foodie I had to try them.
I found some bright green small ones and some dark green big ones so why not try both.
They were very different in taste.
Iranians eat them by adding salt and lemon to it.
Since it was my first time I tried them on their own.
I liked the fruit part of the light green smaller ones as they were sour and moreish but the stone part was a bit hard and bitter.
The bigger ones were tasteless but the almond part tasted like cucumber and almond and it was quite refreshing.
So I get the impression you eat the inside for the bigger one and the outside for the smaller ones.
Anyway, I will be salting the smaller ones because the salt and sourness would taste nice together.

Frize Portuguese Sparkling Redcurrant drink

Spotted this redcurrant sparkling drink so I thought I'd give it a try because you don't often see this flavour around.

Frize is a Portuguese brand of drinks.

I felt that it tasted quite sharp yet you still get the artificial sweetener in the aftertaste.

Dr Pepper strawberries and cream

I was intrigued why the Americans would have a flavour like Strawberries and cream which is quite British so had to try it.
The size of this can is slightly biger than the usual 330ml in the UK.

It tasted like strawberry jelly and a hint of lipstick with artificial sweeteners followed by a coke aftertaste.

New Warburton Crumpet Thins

Warburtons do the best crumpets so when these new crumpet thins came out, I had to try them.
As you would expect, they are considerable thinner so toasting time is shorter.
The taste is just as good and the texture is still the same.
Perfect for trying out spreads or snacking when that won't fill you up but the probably is that because I love crumpets, I end up eating more!!!

Walkers sensation regal lamb mint and King Prawn cocktail crisps

Walkers sensation regal lamb mint and King Prawn cocktail crisps reviewed!
Walkers have been a bit quiet lately as there hasn't been any new flavours or anything exciting over Christmas.
So when the regal lamb & mint and King Prawn cocktail came out, I just couldn't wait to try them.
Interestingly, everyone has been diving into the prawn cocktail first.
The King prawn cocktail is actually quite nice, I found it quite similar to the regular prawn cocktail flavour but a little stronger in taste.
The regal lamb & mint was interesting, I was surprised how gamey the aroma was as well as the taste.
However, the mint was really disappointing because I could not taste or smell it, I was hoping for a vinegary mint taste but it just wasn't there.
Apart from the gameyness, it was also quite salty.
