The Collective New dairy free strawberry suckies

I got my hands on the New dairy free strawberry suckies because The Collective were at IFE2022.
Overall, I loved it and it tastes just as good as the dairy one.
The texture was definitely thick but I wouldn't say it tasted like yoghrt because the taste and texture was more similar to pudding/curd yet it was really silky and light.

Overall, I love it because it is made with oat, rice and coconut which gives it lovely flavours.

Kingfisher Crabmeat Shredded

I felt like trying some canned crabmeat for curiosity but sadly tt was not edible and nothing compared to the fresh stuff
It lacked umami taste and there were plenty of that plasticky stuff inside.
Although it wasn't edible I still plan to try the lump meat.

HiP Oat Milk Salty Pretzel chocolate (vegan)

This is another tasty chocolate that if I ate blind folded I wouldn't of known it was vegan.
It tasted like dark chocolate with salty kick so the saltiness was delivered and then you get these lovely crunchy bits in the chocolate which are the pretzel pieces.
Overall, I was impressed because the taste was good, and the sweeteners used didn't taste artificial.

M&S Cafe Cherry & Almond cake

I love cherry almond so had to try the new cherry almond cake which is probably over priced as it was found at the Cafe when you might be able to buy it later at M&S Food.
Anyway, it was not cloyingly sweet with a firm and sticky texture and a lovely cherry bakewell taste.

Princes Pressed cod roe

I am so glad you can still buy this at the supermarket and it is probably the older generation that buys it.
As I don't have a fryer like the chippies, I just pan fried the cod roe from the tin.
They taste best with fresh lemon or vinegar or Asian style with Sichuan spices.

M&S White pearl strawberries / pineberries (Strawberry/pineberry)

Finally got my hands on these white strawberries from M&S Food! Although I have tried them before, I still wanted to get them again.
They are so much nicer than the Japanese ones I had years ago which were really expensive.
The price of these strawberries range from 2.50 per box to 3.70. I paid 3.70 for my box. I definitely enjoyed them as they were really sweet and fresh with the vanilla tones as claimed but not as acidic as the regular red one.
The seeds are red when ripe which makes them super pretty although they are still sweet even if the seeds are green.

As well as M&S, you can also get them at Borough Market.

M&S Hot Cross Bun cake

I'm not a hot cross bun fan but love cakes and this was delicious.
It tasted like a carrot cake with the spices, diced candied peel and sultanas.
Texture was good being soft, firm with a slight stickiness.
