Maple Sugar

Maple sugar is such a rare find in the UK unless you buy it online so when M&S had the maple cured bacon with a sachet of maple rub, I figured that it was basically maple sugar.
I tried a bit and it was definitely maple sugar so I saved some to experiment with.
Adding it to tea gave it a lovely maple aroma and sweetness which went nicely with Yorkshire tea.
Will definitely try it on other things soon.

M&S The Collection Coronation Chicken Rolls

I didn't have any expectations on the new Marks & Spencers Coronation chicken rolls because I wasn't fond of the recently launched Coronation chicken scotch egg which was heavily spiced.
The roll version was surprisingly nice because you have that sausage meat texture with the taste of fruity apricots in this lovely buttery pastry.
Overall, I really liked it because minced chicken meat is much nicer.

Walkers MAX Kentucky Fried Chicken Crisps and MAX double crunch KFC Zinger

Kfc have done a few crossovers with various crisps brands including Lays and Calbee.
I was excited with the Walkers crossover because it was an English favourite brand that tastes good.
Although it was nice, it lacked that kfc spice flavouring and it was quite salty.
The other kfc crossover I tried was Lays KFC bbq which tasted like Lays Masala magic.
In general Lays and Calbee crisps are weirdly sweet for savoury flavours.
Lays and Calbee have some bizarre sweet ones like lemon tea, coffee, melon bingsu and strawberry flavoured crisps.

Walkers MAX double crunch KFC Zinger:

These were not bad and they were very crunchy as claimed.

The taste was quite spicy like a zinger and also very salty.

M&S Count on Us Chicken & Pasta spice pot

I love pasta so ended up getting the Marks and Spencers chicken & pasta spice pot which has Strozzapreti.
Basically you can think of it tasting like chicken Arrabbiata with strozzepreti pasta and tasty black olives.

It wasn't very filling but it was very delicious!

M&S Colin the Caterpillar softies

The Marks and Spencers sweet range is just incredible with Percy pig and vegan Colin the caterpillar.
The new raspberry and milk flavoured foam sweets are my favourite so far which taste like dehydrated chewy marshmallows with a lovely raspberry flavour.

No wonder everyone is raving about how good they are because these are really worth trying!

M&S Marks and Spencers breaded chunky Haddock Fillets

I love haddock, so got the chunky haddock fillets from M&S.
As well as breaded, you will also find lightly dusted but with the breaded version, it holds the haddock well hence you get a lovely chunky satisfying piece of haddock.

I had it with pickled onion space raiders and tartare saice and it made a fantastic lunch.

M&S King Prawn Bhuna

The curry range at Marks and Spencer is incredible, there are so many choices.

This time I got the King prawn bhuna which is a medium spiced aromatic curry with succulent king prawns, onions, tomatoes, red peppers, green peppers and yogurt.

The amount of prawns in the curry was generous and the curry was mild tasting like ratatouille with spices and bell peppers.
