When I ate bugs Christmas before last, I swear I could taste them/ feel them in my teeth for months.

I had those stories (couldn't remember whose exactly) in mind as I ate them... but thankfully not in teeth. The legs were frazzled up under the ant's head/body, definitely there but hard to get stuck in the jaws.

Hang on - I don't like any of these stories. I was told that insects might be the solution to food sourcing problems in the future. No-one says they taste like crap for days afterwards when they say the former...

When they talk about making food from insects, I don't think they mean roasting he whole thing, legs and wings, so it still looks like a bug. They'd be pasting them to make something like quorn I expect.

Chocolate Brownie Oreos

img:

Have you ever had an Oreo and thought, "If only this tasted more like a Bourbon Cream?"

Pros:

  • Delicious taste
  • Suitable for vegetarians and vegans

Cons:

  • Lacks the sharp taste of the original Oreo
  • For some reason, these never last long

Mmmm rating: 7/10

A packet of Oreos looks to be a similar size to any other packet of biscuits, but each Oreo takes up three times the space so it doesn't last as long.

They are a bit of a rip in that regard, yes.

Further, I've been snacking more. Twisted Evil It's another twofer.

Vegan Cornetto

img:

Because you have to try these things. Ice cream is one of life's sweetest pleasures and we don't have so much of it around these parts any more.

Pros:

  • Tastes similar enough to the original
  • Shows that Walls are thinking about the vegan community

Cons:

  • Doesn't quite taste like the original
  • Only one flavour so far

Mmmm rating: 8/10

In addition to the above

Hartley's Cloudy Jelly (Lemonade Flavour)

img:

Saw this, picked it up. Cool

Pros:

  • Lovely sharp taste
  • Gives you that jelly fix

Cons:

  • Relatively expensive
  • Almost felt like it hadn't set when I took it out of the fridge... but it had!

Mmmm rating: 6/10

I've seen a few vegan friends bigging up the current vegan ice cream scene. Good to see!

Daelman's Stroopwafels

Snacks! Reviews/'reviews' welcome - Page 29 Stroopwafel

If you don't know what these are (and I think somebody might have reviewed them previously?), they are basically caramel between two wafers.

Pros:
  • Tasty waffly things;
  • Good with tea;
  • You're meant to put them on a mug of tea and make the middle bit go all melty, and when that works they're delightful.

Cons:
  • Bit dry without tea;
  • I'm feeling a bit podgier nowadays and these do not help one bit;
  • I've only got one mug where they sit nicely over the top rather than balancing precariously and then falling, and it's my least favourite mug;
  • 'Stroopwafels' doesn't seem like the proper plural. 'Stroopwafeln' perhaps? And how do you pronounce it? British 'oo' or German 'oo'? THIS IS IMPORTANT SNACK MATERIAL.


Mmmmarks out of ten: 7.  The ultimate First World Problems snack.

Daelmans Stroopwafels

Snacks! Reviews/'reviews' welcome - Page 29 Daelmans-karamel-waffeln-delfter-blau-3048-1

Pros:

Insanely wolfable - you could demolish a packet of these in minutes.
Chewy and crispy: a rarity in the texture world.
A decent substitute for a real, fresh one

Cons:

Caramel center doesn't melt quite enough over a mug of piping-hot tea for my liking.
'Light snack'? Is it f**k.
Not good for you. Not at all.

76%

There's much to enjoy about these, but your gut and teeth will hate you for them. Marks deducted as it's just not as good with tea as, say, a scone.

Marks close enough over two people and six years, though. Neutral

Floor Spaghetti

Pros:
  • Delicious
  • I bought it from the 7/11 so I didn't have to bother cooking
  • Pretty cheap


Cons:
  • I feel really sick right now and I don't know if its because I ate two whole spaghetti meals and that's too much or if it's because I spilled the entirety of one of those meals on the floor before scooping it back onto the plate and eating it

BIG TIME BUMP!

Snacks! Reviews/'reviews' welcome - Page 29 71rkD1TVXAL._AC_SX522_

Takis Fuego - I've been meaning to do this one for a while now.


What is it? - A chilli and lime flavour fried corn snack.


Are they good? - Aye, they're dangerously good as they have that moreish quality to them.


Are they actually spicy? - Yup! The standard 55g packs have a really strong kick to them but I've found it can vary a little bit with the bigger party style packs even though they are still great as well.

Do I recommend them? - Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up! Only avoid if you don't like spicy stuff as these will blow yer heid aff & if you get the big party pack maybe get someone to hide them as you might eat them all in one sitting.

-----

Snacks! Reviews/'reviews' welcome - Page 29 640x640

Jaffa Jonuts

What is it? - A jaffa cake shaped like a doughnut?

Is it anything like a real doughnut? - Sadly nope, they've taken a normal jaffa cake shaped it like a doughnut & removed the best part about a jaffa cake (the jelly orange bit under the chocolate) & instead put the orange flavour through the cake-y bit instead.

Do I recommend them? - Nah, just buy normal Jaffa cakes. Thumbs Down...

I've been eying up Takis for some time so it sounds like I should have took the plunge earlier. I would say the Jaffa Jonuts are unironically better than Krispy Kreme's Jaffa inspired donut but I'd also agree with a regular Jaffa Cake being the gold standard still.
