Cadbury Fabulous Honeycomb Fingers

-

Whilst in Asda recently I picked up these Cadbury Honeycomb Fabulous Fingers as a quick snack to go with a cuppa. Incase you haven't seen them already, they also come in a Praline variety, as well as the regular Fabulous Fingers variety. They're on special offer in most supermarkets at the moment.


Like the original Fabulous Fingers, these are coated in a layer of white chocolate as well as milk chocolate, which is supposed to be what makes them "fabulous". I think it makes them a bit... "cheap", to be quite honest, as it's an excuse to add extra sugar. The difference with these compared to the regular Fabulous Fingers is the honeycomb flavour biscuit, which is a tasty change from the original shortcake Fingers, but lacked that "shortcake charm" of the originals, if you know what I mean. They're still very addictive though, and most people will enjoy them. They make a nice change-up from regular Cadbury Fingers, and the differences in taste between the milk and white chocolate coatings are very pleasant, if a bit sweet.

I'm curious if the Praline variety is any good, so if anyone has tried those please do leave a comment!

Price: 99p at Asda

Pringles Salted Egg Review

Another weird snack and this time it’s Salted Egg Flavour Pringles! These are apparently popular in other parts of the word so maybe not as weird as they may seem to us Brits... and they’re actually not so bad! Not as eggy as I expected - I had visions of an awful gaseous pong coming from the tub, haha! - but just a slight salty egg flavour.   If you’re curious, find them from www.gbgifts.co.uk (gifted).

Asda Tinned Banana Blossom Review

-

Recently, I spotted a totally new vegetable/fruit (not sure which it actually is!) in Asda called Banana Blossom in a tin. It was next to the tins of Jackfruit which is a well known vegan meat alternative. I assumed it was a similar thing so happily bought some to try - it’s £1.50 a tin. The image on the wrapper looked innocent enough - battered fish pieces, only vegan! Surely this stuff must be good? Turns out that packaging was very misleading because nothing could prepare me for the horror that was lurking inside...when I opened the tin it was like opening something from a horror film, discovering the mouldy body of an ancient alien creature or other such evil. It looked hideous!! “Surely this is not meant for human consumption?!”, I thought. Heck it’s not even suitable for bird consumption....I think flies would even turn their nose up at this thing, which looked like rotten infested seaweed. When I posted this on my  Instagram  page the responses were predictably

Lidl Way To Go Fin Carre Ethical Chocolate

I recently spotted some new funky looking bars in Lidl, and instantly they reminded me of Tony’s Chocolonely bars, the ethical brand that launched last year donating money to helping end slavery in cocoa production. I’ve always loved the Tony’s brand and I think in 2020, more than ever, we need more ethically produced products - it should be expected, let’s be honest! So it’s always nice to see another brand like this even if it’s essentially copying Tony’s. I got the dark chocolate version to try as I was curious how it would be compared to other dark chocolates. In hindsight this was a mistake, as the actual chocolate is nothing extraordinary. It’s nice enough and good quality don’t get me wrong but it has no particular distinct flavour to make me buy it again. I’ll certainly try the other two flavours which are Milk Chocolate and Almond and Sea Salt, and I do like the chunky haphazard block design that mimics Tony’s Chocolonely. It’s a shame through that Lidl don’t just stock
