Advantages: Orange taste is nice. Disadvantages: Combination of flavours doesn't work. Poor quality chocolate and lack of smell.
Wandering round my local discount shop as I tend do in the day before paydays bout of poverty I come across the Kit Kat Seville Edition. I have never been a big fan of Nestle chocolate and tend to find it all a little bit sickly sweet but the Kit Kat Seville edition promised, "An explosion of flavour in every bite". A heady claim methinks but a picture of oranges and the inside of a chocolate covered wafer oozing with caramelised orange swayed me (that and the fact it was twenty pence rather than thirty-five).
Wrapped it looks like an orange Kit Kat Chunky and is around the same size. As I peel open the wrapper I reveal a slab of chocolate that looks precisely like a Kit Kat Chunky, thick and brick like but generously sized. I am disappointed at a complete lack of smell. Considering the claims of flavour explosions I was ...
Advantages: Totally YUMMY!!!! Disadvantages: Too expensive for everyday!!
A couple of months ago, I had to go into hospital for some tests, just my usual 3 yearly investigation to make sure all is OK (I have Ulcerative Colitis).
I am required to starve for 2 days and take a Picolax, a strong laxative on the second day, so I’m obviously not at my best at this time!
Before the 2 days begin, I always pop off to Sainsbury’s to stock up on interesting drinks, I can have clear drinks, clear in this sense means drinks without bit in rather than see-through. I came upon in the drinks department a Seville Orange Jiggler. My partner and I had just returned a few weeks earlier from Seville (where interestingly there are loads of lime trees on the streets and very few orange trees, but that is another story!) So I purchased this in a sort of ‘I’m feeling sorry for myself so I’ll ...
Advantages: None at all Disadvantages: Taste, look, smell, price
You know, I have sat quietly by and watched as bastion after bastion of my life has been tampered with or bastardised. And no more so than in the food sector has this been apparent where I have had to accept the fact that Marathons are now to be called Snickers and Opal Fruits are to be forever known as Starbursts. I grinned and bared it as Maltesers were produced in a vile white chocolate version and KitKats took on a steroid type look by going chunky, but now I?m going to stand up and shout ?thus far and no further, stop tampering with perfectly good confectionary products!?
Why have I finally decided to break my silence you ask? Well it?s simple really, I have before me one of the most disagreeable and loathsome spawns of a household name in chocolate, it is called KitKat editions Seville orange and is without doubt the most vile ...
Against a backdrop of ceramic walls and linen-covered tables, you can also order tamer fare like young sirloin steak, baked white prawns in garlic sauce with white beans, or cod stuffed with scallops and served in a pastry shell with pine nuts
