Bear. Mango Fruit Rolls Review.

 

This is my first time trying this brand, this is a fruit roll, a lot like a Fruit 2 Go. This is the mango flavour and it comes with a cute collectible card, this one has an anteater on it. (Sorry I didn't take another photo, a better photo.)

This was not nice to chew, more firm and dry than a Fruit 2 Go and the flavour comes and goes, the flavour is not consistent and I feel it's boring and not very mango, you can tell there's no added sugar. It's not great overall, I'm sure there are better brands, or of course much better homemade. I would not buy it or eat it again and I rate it 2.5/5.

Ben's Original. Street Food. Chicken Teriyaki Review.

This was the last Ben's street food I bought and the last one I will likely ever buy. This one is teriyaki chicken with rice.

It smelled like dried meat sticks for dogs but tasted a lot better than it smelled, still wasn't good in flavour but it didn't taste as bad as it smelled. It had a cheap burnt teriyaki flavour and the usual canned rice flavour but less canned rice flavour than the previous two I've had. I couldn't taste vegetables and the chicken was more like dried dark chunks of meat, it was strange for chicken and didn't taste like chicken. I would not buy it again but I'd eat it if I had to and I rate it 3/5.

Midnight Snack. Sour Strawberry Skulls Review.

 

I've done one other review from this store (search it on my blog) and today I'm trying the sour strawberry skulls.

These don't taste like strawberry, more like raspberry meets black currant almost, like a weird berry and I didn't really like the flavour. They are a little sour but not much and their texture is a more firm marshmallow, I like the texture. I didn't really enjoy these, I'm disappointed because they look and sound great, I wish they tasted like strawberry. I would not buy these or likely eat them again and I rate them 3/5. I did want to mention they smell a little like dirty socks which is strange but you cannot taste that thankfully.

El Jefe. Sinister Razz Energy Drink Review.

I've done one other review from this brand (search it on my blog) and today I'm trying the sinister razz.

It's really good, like a blue raspberry candy meets a blue freezie. I don't love it as much as the Ghost blue sour patch kids but this is very nice. I would consider buying it again but I'd definitely drink it again if offered and I rate it 4/5. 

Becky's Soda Bar. Strawberry Iced Matcha Review.

 

This is my first matcha drink, I have had matcha in snacks such as Pocky and Kit Kat but this is my first drink and I got the strawberry iced matcha. The Strawberry was lovely, good amount of sweetness and strawberry flavour. The matcha was like powdered grass, though not as strong as I thought it would be but I wasn't a fan, though my rating is better than the 0 I assumed I'd give it. I will also say my stomach hated it, so I will not be drinking anymore matcha but I rate it 2.5/5.

WTFun. Banana, Strawberry and Mango Fruit Cakes.

 

I popped in yesterday to try their version of the viral fruit cakes. The owner was so lovely, very sociable, friendly with a great vibe and smile. She is also very generous, as I will be honest in saying, she gifted me the banana dessert, when I purchased the other two, which is the first time I've ever experienced that and I was surprised and very grateful.

So I got the banana for free and I personally purchased the strawberry and mango ones and despite getting an item for free and the service being amazing, I will review the items honestly.

Banana: the banana flavour is good, not fake in taste and the texture inside is nice but something about it I did not like, it was almost earthy and almost bitter in taste and the outside was a bit too thick and waxy, I was not a fan of this one 2/5.

Strawberry: tasted like a strawberry shortcake, which is not a cake I enjoy but this was better than the cakes I've had. It was soft inside and out, the strawberry filling was a little tart and the texture was not for me personally. It had a thinner layer on the outside which I preferred and made it less waxy. This one also had an almost earthy and almost bitter taste to it. Overall it was alright 2.5/5.

Mango: the mango flavour was bright, fresh and delicious but this one did not sit well as we tried the other two, the inside got very mushy. The outside layer was a nice thickness, an in-between the other two. This also tasted similar to the other two in that way I did not enjoy but a bit better, masked by the delicious mango. I didn't love it but it was the best out of the three 3/5.

I found these cakes taste a lot like Middle Eastern milk cake that I've had before, which I do not enjoy but this was a bit more of a pleasant experience and I did like the fruit flavours, each fruit flavour was fresh and real but these overall were not to my taste personally. I would absolutely visit again to try other items but I would not buy anymore of these fruit cakes.

Chef Bombay. Butter Chicken Review.

 

I've done two other reviews from this brand (search them on my blog) and today I'm trying the butter chicken.

It's watered down and not very flavourful but the heat is there and it is nice. I felt the chicken was fine in taste and texture for frozen chicken and the rice was alright but I will admit I don't love basmati rice, as much as I am a butter chicken lover. This just wasn't really like butter chicken but it overall wasn't too bad. I wouldn't buy it again but maybe I'd eat it if offered and I rate it 3.5/5.
