Finally found some of this today, in my local IGA at $2.85 for a 1.25l bottle. Now I’m not a big Coke drinker, but I’ve enjoyed a “proper” Coke & espresso combo in the past so had high hopes for this. Unfortunately, I was disappointed … I’m finding it hard to describe the flavour without being brutal. Caramel and bitter, if I’m generous. Smell reminds me of an ashtray. I really don’t like it, and shudder to think how much caffeine is in it …

I like a lot of ALDI products, but their version of a Mars Bar is horrible ?? …

Margaret River’s famous Simmo’s ice cream is now available in all Coles stores and selected IGA stores throughout WA. There’s 3 great flavours – vanilla, crispy white chocolate tease (with milk chocolate malt balls) and burnt caramel swirl (unsurprisingly my favourite). Support a great local brand and add them to your next shop. …

Found these new Honeycomb Maltesers in Coles today for $3 a bag. Unfortunately I was disappointed. The smell of honeycomb when you open the bag didn’t carry through to the flavour, and after a few I wondered why I was bothering. Real balls of Crunchie would be so much better. …

The other two flavours in this range – Southern fried chicken and tacos at midnight – were okay, but these are just odd. Actually, they’re quite unpleasant. I have no idea where the “kebab” flavour comes from. Straight in the bin …

All of this new chocolate is going to send me broke…but I can never resist orange. Described as “orange flavoured creme and fizzy flavoured candy”, which is pretty accurate. A dark chocolate version of this would be much nicer, I’m really not a fan of Australian? Dairy Milk There’s a raspberry one as well.

I don’t know if these are on the shelves yet, I had to rip open a box that was buried on a pallet of stock to get them the orange flavour isn’t very strong, but it’s better than nothing! . .

Have you tried these yet? Clever packaging aside (you separate the tab to open), they are even more sickly sweet than the originals The fillng is the same as in the recent Dairy Milk bars, and it’s just too much. Stick to the original Creme Eggs. . . foodporn
