Somewhere else to eat in Great Malvern

For good Thai food at lunchtime on a Saturday, you could try The Red Lion.

The Red Lion, 4 Saint Ann’s Road, Malvern, Worcestershire WR14 4RG 01684 564787

We’ve eaten here three times now on Saturdays at lunch time and have had excellent Thai food. There are other dishes on offer, some of which are […]

Eating Out Dairy-Free

It suddenly dawned on me a couple of days ago that what we could do with is a site which listed places where you could eat out as a dairy-free bod without being made to feel weird or a right nuisance and without having to put up with dry, over- grilled pork chop and green […]

Kinnerton’s Dairy-free Chocolate Bars

I’ve been using this stuff for a couple of years now and I should have done a review before now… so here we go.

Kinnerton launched as a nut-free chocolate manufacturer some years back. This remains their main line and they have quite a number of different easter eggs which are made in their dedicated […]

Good News!

Good news! I’ve just been in my nearest large Tesco’s and they have safe value digestive biscuits again. No milk anywhere. It is only the blue and white value ones, NOT their red packet own brand ones, NOR the Tesco’s Finest. Neither of those is safe. However, the value ones are fine and we now […]

Beware of powdered coconut milk when eating out

This issue came to my attention recently when a lactose-intolerant relative was inadvertantly poisoned by eating a green curry at a Thai restaurant made with milk-laced coconut milk. Some research into the various powdered coconut milks available, revealed that every one that I’ve found has skimmed milk powder in it. This is critical when eating […]

Tesco Value Digestive Biscuits Also Toxic!

Yet another one to cross off the list! I’ve just been contacted with this news. I don’t know how long it’s been since the recipe changed; I don’t get up to a large Tesco very often, so the last time I bought a packet was quite a while ago.

If you have a packet in […]

Provamel Summer fruit soya yoghurt is back!Hooray!

The lovely big pots of Alpro Soya summer fruits soya yoghurt which disappeared a while back are now available again,…but not in the supermarkets. Alpro have brought it back under their premium Organic healthfood shops only Provamel label. It tastes as good as ever and seems to be on offer at the moment in Holland […]

Waitrose Digestive Biscuits Now Toxic!!

MILK POWDER ALERT!!

Waitrose have gone and deprived us of one of our staples for making cheesecakes!

The biscuit shelves in one of the Waitrose stores which I use now carries a label stating that their own digestive biscuits now contain milk!! They’ve changed the recipe. Apparently all new batches have new labels which have […]

Dairy Free Biscuits

I am currently playing around with an unbaked cheesecake recipe and to this end I have been investigating the availability of dairy free biscuits for the base. While I like baking biscuits very much, I find I’m much less enthusiastic if I know I’m baking them simply in order to crush them up for crumbs. […]

More Dairy Free Sausages

I have another batch of tasty, dairy free sausages from Waitrose. These are honestly labelled as being outdoor bred and barn reared. These are sausages for eating just as sausages, rather than in casseroles which would be a waste of their special, individual flavours.

OK Waitrose English Pork and Sweet Chilli Sausages

These are 81% […]
