New! Peanut Hottie Peanut Butter & Chocolate Hot Drink Review

-

Many thanks to Peanut Hottie for sending me the latest incarnation of their peanut hot drink to review...the new Chocolate Peanut Hottie! When Peanut Hottie first launched a year ago I predicted they would eventually bring out a chocolate version, because as everyone knows chocolate and peanut butter make the perfect combination!


The drink is described as "Peanut butter and chocolate flavour instant hot beverage made with real peanuts". You can use 4 teaspoons (or more depending on your peanut butter cravings!) and mix with hot water to produce a frothy, creamy drink.


I was a bit greedy and used 5 teaspoons since I couldn't resist making it extra peanutty!

The drink was very thick and rich, with a strong peanut flavour, and the chocolate added extra richness making it feel very substantial and filling. It tasted very moreish, and even nicer than the regular Peanut Hottie in my opinion. Whether you prefer one or the other will depend on if you like peanut butter by itself or with chocolate I guess! Personally I love both but would go for this variety in the Winter months.

Overall, this is a great new flavour from Peanut Hottie and will no doubt be very popular. I look forward to seeing more new flavours from Peanut Hottie in the future!

    I tried the original one last year when it came out - hated it, which is weird because I love, love, love peanut butter!! Will have to try this one, hopefully it's much nicer :)

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
