Walkers Salt & Shake Multipack Crisps 6 x 24g
Love the little sachets
I don't need to buy salt anymore. I very rarely use salt, pretty much only on fries to give that fast food taste to burger and fries. I eat these crisps without the salt and save the sachets for things like that. I know i could buy salt sachets, but this way i'm eating less salt overall. They have an interesting earthy taste without the salt, sometimes less taste is more.

Heck 97% Sausage 400g
Don\x27t like the texture at all
It's great that they are 97% pork, i really wanted to like these because of that, but unfortunately i find them unpleasant to eat. I didn't find the skins tough and i thought they were tasty enough if a bit bland. The problem i had was the texture of the meat, it's all lumpy and i just don't like eating them. It comes down to if you like that lumpy texture or not.

Morrisons The Best Thick Pork Sausages 400g
The Mediocre
Not the worst sausages i've ever had, but nowhere near "the best". The texture is ok, they look the part, but where's the taste? I agree with other reviews about the skin too. Horrible is probably a bit harsh, but it's not very good certainly. Too chewy to bite through it properly.

Morrisons No Added Sugar Diet Cola 2L
Drinkable but not a long term replacement
It's interesting how people tastes differ. One review says not sweet enough, to my taste buds it's too sweet. I'm used to Diet Coke and find this too sweet. Not as sweet as Pepsi, but it's on that lines. It's also got a strange dry taste, which leaves me thirstier than before i drink it. It's ok, if i guzzle it down and try not to taste it too much. Probably better with lemon or lime, to disguise the taste a bit. That said, i probably like it more than Pepsi, a lot of people like Pepsi but i hate it, so it really is going to vary on what kind of tastes you like. OK as a mixer, but your kids will probably hate you, if you buy it for them! Try Rola Cola instead!

Morrisons No Added Sugar Sparkling Raspberry & Blackberry Spring Water 1L
Artificial aftertaste
I think i must be oversensitive to artificial sweeteners, because nearly every time i try these kind of things they make me feel sick. This is the same. The drink tastes nice, but then i get hit by the horrific aftertaste. Far too sweet. I will struggle to finish the bottle. I think the big problem i have is the aftertaste never matches the drink. In this case, the drink is very subtle, but the aftertaste is really sweet. It hits my taste buds like a truck. The morrisons ginger ale and bitter shandy are ok, but this just isn't for me at all. Shame, because it tastes quite nice until the aftertaste kicks in.

Walkers Sensations Lime & Coriander Chutney Sharing Poppadoms 82.5g
Fancy Skips
Not really a criticism, as these are quite nice, but they mainly remind me of how good skips are. They pretty much are fancy skips, but bigger. The taste is a little different to skips, you can taste the lime. Hard to fault them, but i did find myself wishing i had bought skips instead!

Morrisons Mulligatawny Soup 400g
Great value
I'm not really a fan of soup, but i'm trying to reduce my shopping bill so trying out different things for cheap and quick meal ideas. I'm really surprised at how thick and tasty this is. It's not subtle, it's quite a salty taste, but that's the kind of thing i would want on cold winter nights. I think the amount of rice is about right. It would make a pretty good makeshift student meal with sliced sausage to thicken it up and some mash too.

Cadbury Flake 99 Ice Cream Cones 4 x 125ml
What happened to the flake?
Haven't bought these in a while, i like them but they are a bit erm vanilla compared to strawberry/toffee ice cream etc and i forget they exist sometimes. They're the screensaver of ice cream, but sometimes i see them and get reminded that i like them. So, i was looking forward to having a 99, but very disappointed with the flake. They've definitely changed them to much smaller flakes. After careful examination, 3 of mine have much smaller flakes than they used to have and the other one barely has any flake at all. I know everything is shrinking these days, but i feel this is a big mistake. The flake was the only reason to buy these. Everything else is just a cornetto but not as good. The flake was the selling point. Now theyre only half lovely. If that. It's basically now just a 49.5

Fray Bentos Steak & Kidney Pie 425g
One for the Dubious Content Committee
I used to like these in my youth, but the meat has pretty much disappeared. It says 12% beef and 9% kidney. That makes 21% meat overall. Not a lot, but i'm distinctly unconvinced it's even anywhere near that much. If a fifth of the contents is really meat, how come you have to actively search for meat to find a tiny bit of it? At one point, i had a miners torch on my head and hired Velma from Scooby Doo to help me hunt down a piece of the "succulent" steak and kidney filling.
