Battle of the Festive Sarnie: Boots Shapers Turkey, Stuffing & Redcurrant

The battle of the festive sandwiches has begun. Yes it is a battle I take very seriously and there can only be one winner. Christmas is one of my favourite times of year and the festive sandwich is the only festive food I allow myself to eat as soon as they come out. It is actually a running joke at work with how many I eat!  This year it is only fair that we start with the first festive sarnie that I had – Boots Shapers Turkey,  Stuffing & Redcurrant Sauce. This is pretty much the standard turkey sandwich that will…

Tesco Finest Roast Turkey Stuffing Crisps

It’s so close to Christmas we can almost smell the Roast Dinner cooking! Today’s post is a take on the humble roast and is Tesco Finest Roast Turkey Stuffing Crisps. There are a number of Crisp companies that have bought out the festive dinner flavour, but can Tesco win the taste factor?

Pringles Pigs in Blankets

I have searched high and low for these Pringles Pigs in Blankets but it wasn’t until I was on mission festive sarnie at Waitrose, that I spotted the last tube looking all lonely on the shelf. Being the kind person that I am I couldn’t let these Pringles be on their lonesome anymore, so in my basket they went. Pringles are a right of passage when it comes to the festivities in our house, so naturally it is only right that Pringles release a festive version. The packaging is slightly festive however I feel they could have gone a bit further than a…

Dairy Milk Snow Bites

Are we all feeling festive yet? I know I am, I mean who doesn’t love waking up to it being totally acceptable to have chocolate before anything else!! So being in the festive mood that I am, today’s post is also a festive number in the name of Dairy Milk Snow Bites. A week or so ago I was hit by a snowball. Not just a snowball, oh no, a Dairy Milk snowball no less, and a few days later these little Dairy Milk Snow Bites landed on my doorstep. Solid milk chocolate balls in crisp sugar shells dusted with…
