Nakd Bars are stupidly healthy. They’re raw, for one thing, and you don’t get much healthier than raw. The cocoa orange one I’ve just this minute eaten only contains dates (40%), cashews (40%), raisins (14%) and cocoa (5%) with a hint of natural orange and chocolate flavouring. No added sugar,Continue Reading

Tonight’s dinner was another recipe from Quick Cook Vegetarian (you must buy this book – it’s fantastic and only £4.31 including postage at the time of writing on Amazon. I rave more about it on this blog post). I wasn’t really sure if it’d be up to much, with itContinue Reading
I must be honest, I didn’t think orange yoghurt was going to be nice but now I’m regretting leaving it in the fridge for so long as I won’t be able to finish it by the use-by date, damn! This was a flipping amazingly nice yoghurt. It’s not sour likeContinue Reading

I was in Holland & Barrett the other day and, hurrah, they’ve fixed their freezer and chiller and they had the most amazing range of vegetarian and vegan food in there. Fortunately for my wallet and my already full freezer, I didn’t have enough room in my rucksack to buyContinue Reading
I got sent a few packs of Lord Poppington’s Perfectly Popped Popcorn to try. I say a few, I mean twelve. So far, I’ve tried the Four Cheese flavour which weren’t cheesy enough for me but then again, they’re not going to be as strongly flavoured as crisps, are they?Continue Reading
New Covent Garden Soup Co. have celebrated this year’s summer by bringing out a great new range of soups. But, even better than that, they invited me to come and try them. I went along with my friend Helen (who blogged about the day here) and when we got thereContinue Reading
Diamond Jubilee crisps, how cool is that? I know not everyone’s patriotic and I’m hardly a royalist (although I do think the Queen is quite sweet), but I do love all the flags everywhere. Which is just as well, seeing as my next-door neighbours have a Union Jack (please don’tContinue Reading
Remember those small, shrink-wrapped pizzas you used to (or still can for all I know) get in the supermarket? Those nasty, cheap things you put under the grill for about 5 minutes and ended up with some burnt cheese on top and a frozen base? That’s kind of what IContinue Reading
