Moo Free Mikey Scrummy Caramel Bunny
I brought the Moo Free Mikey Scrummy Caramel Bunny on a whim, and because I was doing my monthly Tesco order for foods I can't find elsewhere, and needed to reach the £40 minimum. I thought, what the hell, it's new to me and £2.50! And boy, I was surprised! I've tasted all bar the caramel Moo Free bars - mostly because I didn't know they did a caramel one! First of all I'm really pleased to see fun easter treats making their way to shelves - it's the first year I've seen bunnies and eggs, and I LOVE it! I love the bunny shape, and eating it brings joy.
Moo Free Hazelnut Truffles
Oh. My. God. So decadent. So creamy. So rich. So beautiful. Moo Free was the first brand of free from chocolate I settled on, and after I jumped ship to NOMO, I dediced to give these a try.
Co-op Free From Mince Pies
I’ve gone through about 4 different types of mince pies this year that are free from for me, and the Co-op Free From Mince Pies are the standout BEST. Let me tell you why!
Tesco Cream Crunchies 180g
A review of the new Tesco Cream Crunchies! Will they live up to my expectations? Do they taste like the Fox's Crunch Creams?
Tesco Free From Onion Rings 150g
I have to be honest; I did not have high hopes for the Tesco Free From Onion Rings. After the utter disaster of the cheese balls my expectations were low. I’m very happy to say that I’ve been pleasantly surprised!
5 free from foods I’m still looking for!
5 free from foods I’m still looking for! Theortically I could potentially make the following foods, if it wasn’t for my other disabilitites, and limited shopping options. 1 Croissants I miss the buttery, flaky, soft but dense and light texture so much. *sigh* 2 Yorkshire Puddings Yorkshire puds were one of the last foods I let go of … begrudgingly. 3 Maltesers I know Schar have just come out with a Malteser equivelent, but they have milk. 4 Angel Cake When I attempted the gluten challenge I kind of went full hog and ate a bit of dairy and egg also. Oops? I had plenty of regrets, but devouring the lightness of the…
Tesco Cheese Flavour Balls
Oh boy. Buckle in. I don't know what it is about certain types of foods from certain brands, but they never ever taste good to me, and the Tesco Cheese Flavour Balls are one of those things. I know the pallet is quite a personal thing, but I cannot get over the flavour of Tesco’s cheese flavoured free from products. There’s something wrong with it.
How to be happy when eating free from versions of past foods.
How to be happy when eating free from versions of past foods. This post was inspired by the new Tesco Cheese Flavour Balls – full review coming soon. Nowadays there are ‘dupes’ of many foods, and they come in all shapes and sizes. Some dupes are from the same manufacturer cashing in on the ‘free from’ trend. Some are from allergen friendly companies filling a whole in the market, but one thing is certain – they are all ‘nearly but not quite’. Granted, there is sometimes the odd product that’s amazing, but when you have as many allergens/intolerances/IBS as me the list of ‘tastes like I remember it’ gets even smaller. It’s quite common…
Longing For Food
Longing For Food There are a LOT of foods I can’t eat. A lot. I crave those forbidden foods, so much so I can feel it deep down in my bones. Sounds a bit like an odd expression, but it’s true. Sometimes, I even feel like I can taste the food. The foods I’ve eaten way back when are one thing, but foods I’ve never eaten before have this odd sort of taste memory for foods I’ve never even touched before. It’s … odd. Of course, there are those longings for foods I can eat – I’m looking at you free from everything delicious cuastard creams. Those I understand more. Not being able…
Not a picky eater.
Not just a picky eater. I get so many people – friendly, family, random people, and strangers on the internet telling me that I’m a picky eater. I wish. If I were a picky eater that would mean that I didn’t have to worry about cross contimination, it would mean I’d have more choice when out, and it would mean that maybe one day I could try eating the food that I’ve cut out again. But, I’m not a picky eater. I have intolerances, allergies, and IBS. And if you don’t believe me you’re mor ethan welcome to stand outside the door as I endure the after effects of the foods I’m too…
