Lidl Sparkling chardonnay grape juice

I got to try the Lidl Sparkling chardonnay grape juice over Christmas which was surprisingly moreish and natrual.

The sweetness was just right and it tasted like a light white wine without that alcoholic kick followed by a mild sweetness.

It is labelled as a refreshing carbonated drink made with a blend of Italian Chardonnay grape juice, white grape juice and spring water.

Lidl Deluxe Lobster tails - roast garlic & prosecco butter / Cornish Sea Salted butter

I got to try some Lidl lobster tails because someone got them.

There were two versions, roast garlic & prosecco butter and Cornish sea salted butter.

The lobster tails totally surpassed my expectations as they cooked easily in the oven and the texture was springy and moist.

The lobster meat did not even go dry or even shrivel up during cooking.

Rude health hazelnut drink

Some nut milks are my favourite like hazelnut, almond and cashew.

Hazelnut has always been a favourite of mine so when I saw the Rude Heath hazelnut drink claiming there was no sugar in it, I decided to give it a try so that I could taste hazelnut milk on its own to see how it tastes.

Sadly, there was a hint of sweetness in it which I believe came from the organic rice as rice always has a sweet taste.

Morrisons mince pie popcorn

I am not a fan of popcorn because of corn husk but after trying these really tasty mince pie crisps from Walkers I had a glimmer of hope the popcorn version by Morrisons could be good.

To be honest, the mince pie popcorn was a bit disappointing as the flavouring was not strong and the natrual popcorn flavour was more dominant.

M&S shredded Brussel Sprouts with Marmite butter

I had the get the shredded Brussel Sprouts with Marmite butter with Marks and Spencers because it is basically the same marmite butter that M&S sells.

They were reduced to 25p so I got two boxes, each box has two pieces of butter so I had four pieces from two boxes.

shredded Brussel Sprouts with Marmite butter

Anyway, I ended up trying brussel sprouts and marmite as instructed on the M&S sleeve.

It was actually not bad and it tastes like chewy Chinese takeaway seaweed with sticky marmite!

M&S Salt & Pepper pork belly joint

Randomly got some Salt & Pepper pork belly joint from Marks and Spencers for dinner which turned out surprisingly tasty.

Part of the meat is really tasty because it was lightly salted like ham yet you get the full on taste of the pork.

Morrisons pastel writing icing

I got to try these icing pens out because my brother made some cookies so we did some icing writing.

There are four colours, yellow, white, pink and blue.

To summarize they were not that sweet in taste and did the job as an icing however the pink and yellow were not bold enough to be seen as they were rather translucent.

However, these colours can be saved if you apply a white icing base and then apply the yellow/pink on top.
