Jammie Dodgers (REVIEW)

Well hey it's been some time. I'm real sorry any of those who have been following my page. Again I'm REALLY sorry... I've been busy but it's no excuse. I owe it to you guys to do better... anyway!

Bright and Inviting Packaging

For my first review back, I went a little 'safe' and went with a relatively familiar snack food, Jammie Dodgers. My expectations were actually pretty high, believe it or not... unfortunately as you'll read ... that's not always a good thing.

Anyway Jammie Dodgers are a treat for children living in the UK, and that part of the world. Personally I had only heard about this by word of mouth. Honestly they said they don't have GREAT memories of them, however I still thought i'd at least try.

Looks cute... :-)

Like I mentioned before, my expectations were pretty high... well wow... Was I really disappointed. I was expecting something real sweet with a shortbread butter taste. I don't think they were expired, but they tasted like it. It was almost like bitter and 'sour' I guess. I mean, the filling was O-K at best, but wow was it not good. Also the aftertaste was horrible. 

Overall I would say PASS on these, I personally will not be buying these... ever again. I'd give these maybe a 3 out of 10. However, I could go for some other UK Treats!

Thanks again! STOCKY

AERO by Nestle!

Yummy Bubbles!

Well here I am reviewing ANOTHER UK specialty! This one is also from a recognizable brand, Nestle. So yeah, this is incredible how familiar yet different this product is. As I've noted in numerous previous reviews, foreign chocolate to this Westerner, tastes way different than your typical Hershey's Bar.

Regardless of how different this looks and even tastes, I'm always willing to try something new. Again it's not that this bar is the best I've ever had, but it is unique. Let me preface by saying I refrigerated this bar, which... in hindsight probably wasn't the greatest idea. This made the chocolate a bit more bland and 'flat' as chocolate experts would say.

I Like The Bar 'look'

I enjoyed this bar with a nice cup of Dunkin Donuts coffee. This, to me, was an AMAZING pairing! If I would recommend this to a friend, to maybe try with a sweet coffee. Anyway, on to the differentiation that makes this product stand out... the bubbles!! Well, it's certainly a 'gimmick' but still has a certain fun to it, but didn't really warrant the extra $. 

In summation, I'd say that this is a solid snacker I might try again, but ... nothing I'm going to go out of the way for. Maybe I'll come back and  try the mint chocolate variety! Overall I'd give it an 8.5 out of 10.

Thanks for reading~

*Sorry* Nestle Walnut Whip *UK*

Ok so it's been a REALLY busy time for me... getting married, going on vacation... and hey! I'm back!

Appealing Wrapper, and a familiar Brand

Anyway, this one will be brief, since this is a pretty small, yet extremely satisfying treat! I did see this and was expecting a nutty flavored treat, with MAYBE a touch of chocolate... well needless to say, I was WAY off. Being wrong, probably has NEVER been so right.

Such a Unique Shape

From the first bite, (which mind you, I didn't get because of my crafty wife). She really said it was tasty, so I'll take her word for it. From MY first bite, the chocolate definitely doesn't taste a lot like anything Nestle makes here in the states. However, the filling oh my ... just... wow. I guess I could explain it as a mix between an extremely light and fluffy marshmallow, and cotton candy... no joke :)

BEST FILLING EVER

All in all I'd consider this an extremely fantastic any day treat... even twice a day LOL! Hey, I cannot recommend this treat more. Personally, as a dessert, I really got to give this one a 10 out of 10! Go pick one or two up... I mean it. I picked mine up locally at Publix Supermarkets.

Sorry this wasn't the greatest or in depth review ever... however ... YUM!
