[Quaker Oats ] Oat So simple sweet cinnamon

I love instant oats especially these porridge pots.

All you do is add water.

The sweet cinnamon was really comforting and a lovely thing to have for breakfast.

Unpackaged crisps that you season yourself from SPUDOS

As a fan of Salt N Shake, how could I not be a superfan of SPUDOS.
There are six different flavours now with the new KEBAB to shake your crisps with.

In some countries, McDonalds do shake shake fries and recently McCains have done a flavour maker.

Anyway, the SPUDOS range are a success and I was so happy to see them at the QMUL Zero Waste Shop at my uni.

Instructions are simple, you just fill the paper bag with crisps or any container, add the seasoning of your choices and shake.

I liked the way how the seasoning flavoured the crisps without giving it extra saltiness.

To summarize, the nooch and onion, salt and vinegar and the prawn cocktail were my favourites.

Quick tasting notes for each flavour:

nooch and onions: imagine wotsits with a hint of sweet onion

Salt and Vinegar: just as good as any salt and vinegar

Prawn cocktail: tangy and sweet

David Bacon: smoky with a fiery kick

Chip Shop Curry: a mild curry with some sweetness

Doner Kebab: intense spices with a super fiery kick.

Thank you Spudos for kindly sending me all these flavours to try and it was great seeing you all at different places and events!

Brazilian Nissin miojo tomato instant noodles

The Brazilian Nissin tomato instant noodles were surprisingly tasty because the tomato flavouring was on the savoury side and the noodles had a good bite.

These are fortified with vitamins which I haven't seen other noodles do.

Strangely, the other Brazilian Nissin noodles I tried earlier were not as tasty as the tomato.

M&S Raspberry Royale Yumnut

I love yumnuts so this time tried the Raspberry Royale Yumnut which was very pleasing with the freeze dried raspberry pieces on top.
A little two sweet but lovely.

biotiful gut health Keffir drinks : raspberry / cherry / coffee / honey ginger / Vanilla

I found this biotiful gut health Keffir Raspberry drink quite nice because it was not sweet but there was an interesting bitter aftertaste to it.

Also tried the cherry, latte and honey ginger.

The cherry turned out to be my favourite, while the latte was like yoghurt with a hint of coffee the honey ginger lacked the taste of honey and ginger.

Coffee:

Cherry:

This was my favourite, the cherry flavour was fantastic.

Vanilla:

Another nice flavour from Biotiful.

I found it nicer than the tasteless ginger and honey kefir drink from their range.

F'REAL birthday cake milkshake

I have been meaning to try the freal birthday cake milkshake since August 2022 which is basically a vanilla milkshake with sprinkles.

However, it has been difficult getting my hands on it because this particular flavour is not stocked.

Finally, spotted them at Coop on the 21st of April, 2023 but annoyingly, they had run out of the lids for the freal milkshakes.

Since this flavour was hard to get hold of, I decided to get it anyway.

Overall, I felt that it tasted the same as the vanilla except that it has extra sprinkles in it.

Revisited this Coop on the 16th May 2023 and the situation was still the same!

Continental sachet soups from Australia

My friend was in Auz, so took this opportunity to try some Auzzie supermarket products so got the Continental soups.

There were so many flavours to choose from.

It is interesting that they come in boxes which contain two sachets whereas in UK, you get four but it is good if you are in a small household or just want to try the different flavours.

There was steak and mushroom aka beef and mushroom but I decided to try the Dutch Curry with rice and Laksa with noodles.

The Continental Asian Laksa soup smells and tastes exactly like Batchelors Thai green curry soup with a strong coconut and chicken notes.

I haven't a clue what Dutch Curry is hence the curiosity to try this.

It was actually quite spicy but I only got two peas unlike 6 as shown in the product shot.

The pieces of rice were nice but they wouldn't go soft so they were a bit to hard and crunchy to eat.

Overall, apart from being a bit spicy, it was quite nice.
