Vital Proteins Marine Collagen

Lets see if it works better than consuming food with natural collagen eg beef tendons.
The taste mixed with water is quite pleasant.
Would be interesting to see if it thickens when it cools down.







Tesco finest Red Velvet Hot Cross Buns

I don't really like traditional hot cross buns because of the fruit peel and texture however I am eating more hot cross buns every year because of the new creative flavours like this latest red velvet.
I just expected it to be chocolate flavoured which is how it turned out.
It was very gooey and messy to eat so you will get your fingers sticky with melted chocolate.
Visually, you can see the white bits of cream cheese but can't really taste it.






Vegemite spread

Finally tried Vegemite properly to review it.
Previously it was served on pizza which was masked by the cheese and all that.
Having it on its own, the taste was very bitter compared to marmite and sometimes tasting like bovril but not as salty as marmite.
The texture was more spreadable like paste.
So another good alternative if you like that sort of taste.
In terms of design, I still think Marmite looks nicer.







Waitrose seeded crumpets

Although Waitrose products don't impress as much as M&S, the seeded crumpets were delicious soft and squidgy.
You can always trust Village Bakery who make lovely crumpets for various supermarkets.
The crumpets were not overloaded with seeds which did not affect the overall mouthfeel.









Tiptree Morello cherry conserve / jam

I am definitely loving this cherry jam because you can really taste the tart cherries which are not masked by the sweetness.
I liked the chunks of cherry halves here and there.




nurishh vegan alternative to Camembert

I have always been intrigued by this camembert alternative because I wanted to know if it had that white layer on the outside and it does.
The texture is almost like camembert but not as sticky with some chalkiness.
The taste would be satisfying if you were vegan but it's still different but yet the smell and taste gets you thinking of camembert.





Morrisons 35p Milk chocolate and 90p Hazelnut Milk Chocolate

The Morrisons 35p Milk chocolate is something I would never buy because of the price but only because I had a 5 pound Amazon fresh voucher.
When I have vouchers, I normally get things I wouldn't buy or get something with a price that matches the value so I use it in one go.
This time I decided to use it on a Morrison branded product as well as an amazon branded one.
I didn't have any expectations on the chocolate but I think it was the vanilla that made it tasty and the chocolate had a nice snap as well.




While the milk chocolate was really nice, the hazelnut milk chocolate was disappointing.
It was studded with lots of hazelnuts but sadly it was just sweet and you couldn't even taste the chocolate or hazelnuts.
