The last few weeks have been a bit thin on posts here and this is because I have become obsessed with salt! I was asked to collect some figures of the sugar and salt content of bought food for my children’s lower school. They’re in the process of putting together a healthy eating policy that […]

This week’s batch of reviews is cereal bars. These have a very mixed press at the moment. The school dieticians seem to regard them as pretty much second to the spawn of Satan. I’ve become involved with the whole Healthy Eating Policy thing in my kids’ lower school and it’s a minefield! More of all […] Apricot and Guava This is a good one! I found it in my local health food shop this week and can honestly say it’s lovely. It isn’t cheap at 75p for a little 25g pot, but it does taste very good. The texture is slightly odd, in that it has tiny gritty bits in it. […] Somehow or other I seem to have missed this essential part of family pudding time off the site. Major oversight! I shall put this right over the next few posts. There are some dairy-free ice creams out there and some of them are good, but they can be hard to find. Some are also very […] My local health food shop has managed to produce a pot of the blueberry version of Sojade’s soya yoghurt. I can now report that it’s good, but not quite as good as I’d hoped. The flavour is fairly well rounded, but it’s not as much better than Alpro’s stuff as the plain version is. There […] In many areas these days, the choice of source for food shopping can be limited to whichever of the big supermarkets has been allowed to dominate your particular patch. We live 15-20 minutes’ drive from any of the big supermarkets, so I use several of them at different times and for different things. The result […] I am always on the look-out for a plausible alternative to cream cheese. Original Creamy Scheese Having tried this on my sandwiches today, I’m sad to say this isn’t it! There’s nothing wrong with it as a food substance, it just doesn’t taste anything like cream cheese. The texture is quite good (not as firm […] This week’s batch of reviews is focussing on sausages. The range of choice has improved immeasurably since the commercial price of skimmed milk powder went up. Since this stopped being the cheapest bulking agent known to man, fewer manufacturers are padding out their products with it… and there are more things we can now eat! […] I have some more mueslis for you. Also some more information on the brands which I’ve already reviewed. It became apparent that they come at very different prices. Therefore I’ve collected the price per 100g for each brand. On the reviews page, all the material is collated for easy reference. NOT OK familia swiss c.m. […] I found a new variety of soya yoghurt in my local health food shop this week and I’m pleased to say it’s a good thing. The flavour and texture are good. It is similar to the real thing. As ever with soya yoghurts, it lacks the sharpness which is so distinctive in dairy yoghurt, but […] |
