Archive Stumbled across these in a restaurant yesterday and tried the lemon & lime (there’s also a plain “brewed lemon”). It seemed less sweet and fizzy than usual, neither of which are a bad thing. Worth trying if you find it. December 8, 2016Add Comment
Archive The new KFC “Bacon Lovers Burger” has an original recipe fillet, two slices of bacon and baconnaise on a brioche bun. It’s small, and feels more like a cheap snack-type burger than a Zinger, but it’s surprisingly tasty. I’m not quite sure what the baconnaise actually tastes of, though… December 2, 2016Add Comment
Archive Today’s lunch: a homemade bacon sandwich, made with the British Sausage Company’s new streaky bacon that I found in the supermarket today. Delicious November 3, 2016Add Comment
Archive Fake-apple-crumble flavour isn’t something you see a lot, and there’s a good reason for that. Very odd. September 16, 2016Add Comment
Archive Okay. I was expecting this to be the same disappointing ice cream shoved in a cone with a meagre amount of crumb. What I wasn’t expecting was chocolate sauce that tastes… smoky. It’s almost savoury, and it’s just horrible. Best PR effort ever getting this thing in the news. September 11, 2016Add Comment
Archive A working lunch at home today…a delicious toasted sandwich made with sourdough, ham, hot Hungarian salami and Gouda from Napoli Mercato in Harrisdale. Yum! July 24, 2016Add Comment
Archive So you thought Mentos only made mints? These new caramel chews are available in two varieties, filled with either plain or mint flavoured chocolate. I was excited by the mint ones, although found that the flavour didn’t really work with the caramel, and ended up preferring the plain variety. Both a good effort though ?? July 24, 2016Add Comment

Archive Remember those sweet spreads from Coles? Well Woolies are in on the act too. Of course they had me at choc-orange…and I quite like these. They’re more “solid” than the Coles ones – the texture is like Vegemite – so they’re more suitable for spreading or just eating straight off the spoon than dolloping on ice-cream July 4, 2016Add Comment
