BentteEst Bran Maamoul (Saudi Arabian Date biscuits)

Bran Maamoul, a Saudi Arabian sweet snack.
Whole wheat short crust style pastry filled with dates which remind me of Fig Rolls.
I was impressed there was English which makes a good gift so people from all over the world will know what it is.







Sainsburys Melons and pineapples to go

A nice fruit selection which tasted even nicer overnight as they went fizzy.


M&S strawberry banana smoothie

A very thick and sharp smoothie yet quite sweet.


M&S Rainforest Alliance Bananas

These were free perks from the sparks card.



Walls Jumbo Pork Sausage Roll

I got this jumbo sausage roll for free from freewalls.co.uk where you have five days to redeem it before the offer ends on 31st Jan 2024.
There is a Tesco's locator which is helpful but not quite helpful because it shows locations of Tescos which have already gone.
Anyway, finally found a Tesco's that had it and went to a human cashier to redeem it in case of any technical difficulties.
Unfortunately, I scanned my clubcard which messes up the logic which the cashier wasn't aware because the barcode just wouldn't work.
So anyway, I decided to try for myself at the self service ones and this time I didn't scan my clubcard and it worked.
Labelled as a jumbo sausage roll, it just looked like a regular one but maybe a tad bigger.
Obviously they are mass made by machines hence the regular shape and punched holes etc.
As for the taste, they definitely taste like school sausage rolls so I found then really comforting and the pastry isn't oily.

Waitrose Rhubarb Crumble

Finally tried the Waitrose rhubarb crumble.
Basically you get a thick crumble layer and the rhubarb was super sharp with a crunch.
Visually you can see big chunks of rhubarb that is not overcooked and mushy.
It was nice but I wasn't a fan because the sharp taste was a bit different from other supermarkets.




Cadburys delights salted caramel soft nougat

Tasted like a milky way with crispy bits in it.
