Nákd Strawberries & Cream, Salted Caramel and Toffee Treat Nibbles

-

I recently reviewed Nákd Fruit Salad and Tooty Fruity Nibbles, and as well as those flavours there's several more. I'm yet to find the Coconut variety, but whilst in Sainsbury's recently I came across the other flavours: Strawberries & Cream, Salted Caramel and Toffee Treat.

Nákd Fruit & Nut Nibbles are basically healthier snacks in various sweet flavours. I think theyre a great idea and a good way to help folks reduce sugar intake and eat more "real" food. They're also vegan, raw, dairy-free, gluten-free and contain no artificial nasties. All whilst being very tasty...no easy feat! They're made with a combination of dates, raisins and cashew nuts.

Strawberries & Cream Nibbles:

The strawberries and cream variety tasted lovely; the nibbles had a strong creamy strawberry flavour. I'm not sure how they achieved this as the ingredients only list "natural flavours" and they contain no strawberries or dairy, but the taste was pretty realistic. Out of all the flavours this one was my favourite! (though that may change once I try the coconut variety!).

RATING: 8.5 out of 10.

Salted Caramel Nibbles:

"Salted caramel" really is proving to be one of the biggest trend in snacks this year (they're like several years too late, but whatever), and now it's catching on with healthier products too. I was curious how Nákd would pull it off using only natural ingredients...


The nibbles tasted nice and definitely had a salty caramel edge, but I wouldn't really describe it as proper salted caramel. More like "a hint of". Still, the flavour made for an interesting snack and I did enjoy it!

RATING: 8 out of 10.

Toffee Treat Nibbles:

Last but not least, are these "Toffee Treat" Nibbles. There's not much I can really say about them other than they're very tasty, with a pleasant toffee flavour. If you're a fan of toffee and looking for something healthier then these aren't half bad!


RATING: 8 out of 10.

Overall:
I think Nákd are onto a real winner with this new range. Everyone wants healthy snacks that also taste good, and it's a rather difficult feat. Luckily Nákd are ahead of the curve and have managed to produce some tasty snacks with interesting flavours. Now if only I can find the coconut variety...!

Price: 75p at Sainsbury's.

Suitable for vegans, vegetarians, dairy-free and gluten-free. Contains nuts.

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
