Well, that's all for this edition of Spotted In Shops, I'll be back as soon as there's more new products out! I wonder how long it'll be until the first Christmas snacks appear?
I'm a bit of a nut-milk connoisseur these days but found myself a tad disappointed by the Pip n Nut honey & vanilla variety - not as yummy as one would imagine! Would have to say the best milk i've tried is Rude Health Almond (do try this one if you haven't!), followed closely by Alpro unroasted almond, followed by vanilla Rice Dream. Anyway, keep up the posts - you've got great taste in snacks, Kev!
ReplyDeleteCoca cola zero cherry is rubbish compared to pepsi max cherry!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree. I regularly buy the Pepsi version, whereas one can of Coke Zero cherry was more than enough.
DeleteI've never tried Coca Cola Zero Cherry, but I do drink the regular from time to time. My hypothesis is that Coke has a standing arrangement to buy brown crayon stubs from day care and preschool establishments for use as flavoring in Coke Zero. Empirical evidence suggests that there must be stub shortages from time to time.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the cherry version also uses stubs of the elusive cerise crayon.
Dr Pepper is my preferred swill when I crave something with a flavor of cherries past their prime. Alas, the only versions I can find have added caffeine, which I avoid in fizzy drinks.
