M&S Mature Cheese & Onion Quiche

I thought I had tried every quiche at Marks and Spencers but they have changed their quiches a little bit.
Taking a glance I assumed the mature cheese & onion quiche was the same as the cheese & onion quiche but the mature cheese & onion quiche contains fresh chives in it.
Labelled as Sautéed onions, extra mature Cheddar cheese and Red Leicester cheese & Fresh chives with a creamy egg custard.
It was nice overall and I would say there was lots of onions in it which gives it a sweetish taste and the chives make it colourful.

M&S Collection Turkey Feast Scotch Egg

I love scotch eggs so the modern ones are always taking it to the next level.
Earlier this year, M&S did a coronation chicken one and now there is the Turkey feast scotch egg for Christmas which I think is even better.
It features a soft set egg inside which reminds me of that amazing gastropub scotch egg they had a few years ago.
Labelled as a scotch egg made with turkey, mapled cured bacon & pork with cranberries and port wrapped around a free range soft set egg.
To be honest, I couldn't taste all that complexity like the bacon and port but the cranberries were there.
Overall, the turkey meat was really tasty and spiced like sausage while the egg was exactly the same soft set egg you find in their ready to go breakfasts with that telltale flat bottom!








Robinsons Blackberry, Cranberry & Sloe fruit cordial

The Robinsons Blackberry, Cranberry & Sloe fruit cordial was part of the goodie bag at the Home Show so I was glad I got to try it.
It was quite a nice cordial that was pleasant to drink with a nice mix of sweet berries.
There was a nice colour when it diluted.




Morrisons Mint chocolate spread

Chocolate spread is everywhere but you don't often get chocolate mint!
I am so glad the chocolate orange craze bought along the chocolate mint which is another option and it was by Morrisons!!!
This could possibly be the only chocolate mint spread in the world and it was so good.
Basically mint chocolate in a spread form that's not too sugary or with a weird artificial mint taste.
It tasted really good on toast although the spread is a bit dry when you spread it and I felt that having it on toast tasted better than pancakes.
WELL DONE MORRISONS!







Sainsbury's mini fish and chip cones

Everywhere is doing mini fish and chip cones but with the Sainsburys version, you fill the cones yourself!
Practically you can only fit 4 chips in each cone with a piece of fish and it can get quite fiddly.
Overall, the chips tasted ok but the fish batter was rather bitter.
The fish was minced so it was a bit mushy in texture.
Labelled as Battered Basa fish with salt and vinegar flavouring.


Other supermarket versions:










Sainsburys on the go Mince Pie porridge

I am not a fan of mince pies or porridge but the Sainsburys on the go Mince pie porridge was amazing.
The reason I do not like mince pies is because of the fruit peel but maybe I will appreciate mince pies as I get older and the reason of my porridge dislike is the milkyness.
However the mince pie porridge at Sainsburys tasted so good because it tasted like yoghurt with with oats and dried fruits.
When I looked at the ingredients, it was exactly all that!
If you like this, then you would have liked Sainsburys spiced apple bircher muesli (autumn edition).
It was the same thing but with apple.





M&S mega moreish Mini Toad in the Holes

The mini toad in the holes labelled as Proper flavour-packed British pork sausages nested in Yorkshire puddings seasoned with mustard and rosemary captivated me to try them.
The Yorkshire puddings were definitely light and crispy with moreish sausages but strangely I couldn't taste the mustard or the rosemary but not bad.
Inside the box you get two trays of six and it seems I got two different batches as one batch is darker.
The photos were taken before they were cooked in the oven.
