Greggs Edinburgh exclusive: Scotch Pie

Greggs Bakeries are everywhere but you will find exclusives items down South, up North etc.

In Edinburgh, they have Bloomers, Scotch Pie, Empire Biscuit, Fruit Scone, French Fancy, Pineapple Cake, Devon Doughnut, Jumbo Choc Ring Doughnut, Vanilla Doughnut and Apple Danish.

I only managed to spot the Scotch pie and the Devon doughnut which is a ring doughnut with cream.

The Scotch pie is basically a meat pie of beef and mutton in a crumbly thin shortbread pastry with smooth minced meat in the middle.

Overall, nice and some vinegar would make it taste even better.

Lidl Batt mayonnaise

A thick and creamy mayo

Almette Puszysty serek twarogowy z pomidorami dojrzewającymi w słońcu 150g

I have always wanted to try this Romanian cream cheese because of tub design which looks like a wooden tub.
Finally tried it because there was a tomato cream cheese flavour which isn't the usual boring plain or with chives.
It was really nice as expected, creamy cream cheese with savoury tomato umami.

Also tried the herbs and dill pickle.\

I was getting the dill pickle when I bought the herbs by accident hence the double review.

The herbs isnt bad but I prefer the dill pickle because I like dill however the pickle flavour isnt strong.

Think of it like mcds tartar same without the tang.

Other flavours I want to get my hands on are tomato basil, horseradish and parsley if I ever see them.

ONIX super natrual orange fruit from Marks and Spencers

ONIX the super natrual orange fruit is stocked at M&S so I got one to try.
They have these quirky streaks on them which looks like an eye as well as the xbox thing with a dull purple and the usual passionfruit colour.
It is interesting that ONIX has its own website about it and how it's magical like sight hynotist, spell of taste, Body protector and juicy soul.
Well! It just tasted like an orange but to be fair, I don't really eat fruit so it has the properties that it should have!
Worth trying if you like trying things for the one off sake.

African Bitter Kola Nuts

African Bitter Kola Nuts.

These bitter kola nuts which visually look like Brazil nuts were so different to the Kola Nuts I previously tried.

The bitterness is different and the texture is different.

First the smell and bitterness was more like ginseng.

The structure of this was a bit like a yam with stems in the middle which ooze with thick liquid when sliced in half.

Anyway, tried it for the sake of trying it and the liberty of being able to get hold of it.

If you google it, there are health benefits just like other things.

[Australian] Heinz Big Eat All Day Breakfast Can

There are not many breakfasts in cans out there so I was really lucky to get the Heinz Big Eat All Day Breakfast from Austrailia.

I didn't have any expectations because Aussie stuff is always on the sweet side.

In this can, you get sausages, tomatoes, beans, sausages, potato, bacon and mushrooms.

Compared to Hunger Breaks All Day breakfast, it was so much nicer that I ended up finishing the can except the sausages because the texture and taste was weird and mushy.

Other than that, I was really impressed you get chunks of diced tomatoes but the mushrooms were barely traceable!

Overall, tasty as it was sweet but not too sweet and the texture of the beans were not too soft.

Hungarian Tiszai halaszle Fish soup by Hazias Izek

Seriously good Hungarian tiszai fish soup.
You get huge pieces of fish just like the picture.
It was enjoyable being able to eat soft fish bones.
The texture of the fish was soft and gelatinous which is so different to other canned fish products which are firm and mushy.
