Clonakilty Ispini Sausages & Clonakilty Rashers

Clonakilty Ispini Sausages & Clonakilty Rashers

When I was asked if I wanted to try the new Clonakilty Ispini Sausages I never would have thought all of these goodies would arrive. Talk about meaty delivery! If like me you though Clonakilty* were just about their famous black pudding, you may be surprised to see how much they have branched out. From their traditional black pudding to white pudding, bacon rashers, bacon joints and sausages, the newest are these Clonakilty Ispini Sausages. Made using 100% Irish Pork they are apparently the perfect allrounder. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, BBQ, these sausages have got you covered. The rashers do come in four…

M&S Milk and Cookies Granola

M&S Milk and Cookies Granola

The M&S Christmas range is in full swing and not too long ago I reviewed their Red Velvet Curd. Sadly I wasn’t bowled over by it (read my review here if you missed it) so I am hoping the M&S Milk and Cookies Granola can help put us back on track.  Coming in at £2.50 a 500g box I was most surprised to see it that cheap. Most granolas are averaging around £4.00 so kudos to M&S for keeping this far more affordable and fair. So what can we expect from this granola? Well the description is – ‘Dark chocolate oat…

World Porridge Day: Porridge with a Savoury Twist?

World Porridge Day: Porridge with a Savoury Twist?

Happy World Porridge Day! With the cold weather drawing in there are days when all you need is a bowl of something that warms you to the very core. I love porridge but when it comes to eating it I reach for the plain and simple, and on the odd occasion a drizzle of maple syrup or jam may get swirled on in there. Living on the edge there I know!  Oats are not only good for the soul they are for the body too. They are an excellent source of fibre, protein, vitamins and have a low GI index…

Oppo Madagascan Vanilla Cheesecake

Oppo Madagascan Vanilla Cheesecake

If someone said to you here’s a cheesecake that isn’t as sinful as a traditional slice of cheesecake but still tastes as good, you would probably think they were off their rocker. Well Oppo have potentially given us just that. Coming in a trio of flavours today’s review is the Oppo Madagascan Vanilla Cheesecake. If you haven’t come across Oppo then they were the ones that made sugar free ice cream taste darn good. FYI Mint Choc Chip is my fave. However no longer is this their only guilt free treat, the new range of chilled cheesecakes has been 2 years…

M&S Peanut Butter Bar

M&S Peanut Butter Bar

Last week we had the Battle of the Whips and next up in my M&S Chocolate adventure is this Peanut Butter Bar*. Yes as part of my big box of goodies that I received you would be correct in thinking that I was excited to see the M&S Peanut Butter Bar was included. Yes the addiction lives on, and I am always open to trying pretty much anything peanut butter.  This snack bar I believe costs around 75p and is the perfect size for a treat. With a mixture of milk and dark chocolate, caramel, crunchy peanut butter and roasted peanut…
