I'd been really looking forward to them, too. They've been sat on my bedside table for a couple of weeks, but ... late night snacking... there were many Mince Pies remaining, so they kept getting put off!!

Really disappointed.

Are they fossilized? They look like Tony Robinson has just dug them up!

But yeah, nuts. Lovely.

Odd you should say that..
The thought of "these look a bit like dead wasps" kinda put me off about halfway through the bag...
They're in the bin, now.

A flat one of the gummies from Dolly Mixtures. Size wise, roughly 2p coin in diameter, and .. maybe about 3 or 4 of them high.

Tastes Like..

I was expecting a burst, like you get with Chocolate Liquors, but instead it was indeed just a gummy.
Very flavourful, so the booze must've been part of the gummy recipe.
Quite nice, and with a lingering, but good, aftertaste.

Rating 3/5 - Nice, but at what price???!

Only half a tub-full... cheeky buggers



Tastes Like...

Delicious!
With tons of different flavours in every forkful, and a nice spicy kick to it, too.
There was a slight creaminess as I got to the bottom, and the soupy ending was great.

Rating : 5/5 - More please... ... awww, there's no more.

Black coffee mixed with cardboard.
That's what it tastes of.

Eeep, reminds me of a review Ashens did for those flavoured coffee things from Lidls.. I think Beanies was the brand.

A workmate bought some into work and we tried htem out with milk and they tasted of blandness, which is a shame as the smelt lovely.

I found a way around it was to use 1 scoop of beanies with one scoop of alta rica and a spoon of sugar, brought the flavour out from them really well.

Yes, Beanies with their amazing Sugar-free claim taste 100,000 times better with sugar added!

It did seem like an absurd claim in the first place, never known a regular instant coffee to include sugar in the granules!

I'm only eating the Yorkie, today. Two chocolate bars will Migraine me up!!



Looks like...


Tastes Like...

The same "not normal chocolate" taste as the previous Protein Chocolates.
Not a whole lot of flavour other than that. Definitely not feeling the whole Apple and Cinnamon.. at all.. !
And the "oats" are exceedingly crunchy and .. just not what you expect from the word "oats". They feel more like chopped nuts than oats.

Rating : 1/5 - I'd rather have had it without the bits. Just a plain Yorkie for me, please.

The Kitkat combo of raspberry and hazlenut sounds odd. The Yorkie sounds like it wants to be something else entirely. And at those prices? Fuck off!!

Why on earth are people trying to kid themzelves that a chocloate bar is now a healthy snack.

Skips!

Tastes Like...

They're alright, I suppose. I don't think the pea/carrot crisp tastes too bad, but it's being masked by the nasty Smokey BBQ flavour, which isn't particularly nice.

Rating : 4/5 - I'd've preferred a more "plain" flavouring. Also, the fucking price, god damnit!

I had some proper veg crisps a long while back - beetroot, carrot, Donald Trump (sorry turnip - I always get those two vegetables mixed up). They were fecking foul.

I think I'll stick to whatever the fuck they put into Japanese, American and Korean foodstuffs!

No migraine today, so I finally got round to that KitKat.

The raspberry layer was nice and gooey, but the hazelnut taste seemed absent.
Maybe the raspberry was too strong?

Rating : Same insane price as the Yorkie, so.. no!!

Meanwhile...






Nothing to see here.
Move along..

I haven't had peanut butter in years. Despite loving peanuts (and all proper nuts), I'm not overly fond of the stuff and only ever tolerated the smooth occasionally. I'm not sure if it's the greasy texture or the sweetness. Probably a combo of both.

Not a lot of variation in the flavour. Pretty much peanuts all the way down!
Texture's nice, though. The crunchy nuts with the gooey center and the melty bottom.. they all combine really well.
