Fini Chicle Camel Balls & Zed Pus Balls: Rude Bubble Gum Review!

-

Oh, the controversy...to think, these sweets have been sold to children! Yes, according to The Mirror this rude bubble gum caused outrage with a mother when her daughter innocently bought "Camel Balls" from a local newsagent.

Of course we all know why these are amusing so I really needn't explain anything. But... what do camel balls taste like? (something I'm sure we've all wondered at some point?!)

Opening the wrapper revealed...


...a single, brown camel ball that looked a bit like a mini egg. Cutting it in half (ouch!) revealed...


...gooey red liquid!

Unfortunately the bubble gum wasn't all that tasty, and certainly won't be converting me to the delights of camel balls any time soon! It tasted slightly cheap and had an odd coconut flavour, with the red filling tasting sweet but of very little.

Overall though, these are an interesting novelty and worth buying for the rude wrapper! I'm constantly seeing wrappers for these on the pavements where I live, so presumably they must be popular.

RATING: 6.5 out of 10.

Pus Balls:

More disgusting than rude, these Pus Balls were right next to the Camel Balls so I had to give them a try too. They're a bit harder and chewier than the Camel Balls and are pink coloured.


Cutting one open revealed a yellowish "pus" filling...yuck!


It tasted a little more pleasant than the Camel Balls, with a slight fruity flavour. The liquid filling was sweet but didn't taste of much. These are made by a company called Zed Candy, based in the USA.

Overall, I think these are a bit pointless in a world where Camel Balls exist!

RATING: 6.5 out of 10.

Have you tried Camel Balls or Pus Balls? If so what did you think? Are they too rude for children?

    Hehe - my daughters came back with camel balls a few weeks back, they sell them in our next door corner shop! I was very amused to say the least ;)

    Add more kale, spinach, and other greens to your daily meals. They are high in iron, which is an essential ingredient to fully flush out your system. Additionally, opt for some healthy fibers like fruit, beans, nuts, and whole wheat-based foods. A good amount of fiber will give you an added boost needed to pass a drug test. Even though marijuana is becoming more and more accepted for medical usage, it’s still looked for in certain drug tests.

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

-
Image
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
