Did you know some blue cheeses like Roquefort have wheat flour in them which helps to produce the blue streaks?
Be careful when choosing your cheese.

Since Kelloggs started ‘barley washing’ its products I thought I’d try an alternative cereal -Doves Farm Cornflakes
They look a little different, texture is slightly odd, but taste pretty good, so a thumbs up from me!

A crisp fruity aromatic wine with a dry finish. Ideal with pasta, sea food and spicy food.
I have been drinking this wine for over a decade [ with a few breaks between ]. It’s wicked - as most people love it, and very reasonably priced. A real winner.
Highly recommended.
Great aperitif, delicious with spicy foods. Another winner from the Nobilo range.

Walkers are making a range of snacks that include Poppadoms.
I have tried the Lime and Coriander Chutney and the Creamy Chicken Pasanda which are both GF.

Juvela make a variety of products and I find the ‘long life’ - ready sliced variety is excellent. Many GF breads are dry and dificult to use for sandwiches but the Juvela GF sliced loaf makes great sandwiches which stay moist for a day.
Available on prescription too this range is one of the best tasting breads too. Not suitable for wheat, milk or lactose free diets. They use GF wheat starch in this product.
Lightly toast 2 slices of this product back to back in a toaster to make sandwiches.
I take this away on holidays with me as it lasts well, on flights the sealed packaging will expand with the pressure - also at altitude it expands so if you take it on a ski holiday you might find your bags difficult to open if you have several loafs in there.

Try this for a snack or an aperitif. Sainsburys Somerset Goats Cheese ( round type) slice it thin and place it on bread. the bread should be fully toasted one side, then buttered and partly toasted on the other side before you drop the cheese onto it for a final grilling. Serve this up with salad.. excellent!
It makes a great quick snack, I recommend Juvela white sliced loaf with this, you could even cut the bread into circles by using a large mug to cut off the crusts to make the presentation a little more special.

I love cheese, all types of cheese but I don’t like these!
They are so bad I once used them - as a threat to my three year old - if he didn’t eat his dinner up - he’d get one for his afters! He ate his dinner!!
Doves Farm make some really good cookies though - how these got through their quality tests I don’t know.
I tried some Barkat Pretzel Sticks and have to be honest was not too impressed, they tasted a little odd, a bit of a pasty texture and a slightly bland flavour - though the massive chunks of salt made your mouth water - but how good for you is that?
Walkers do some excellent snacks such as the Sensations mini Poppadoms range, I’ll be writing something up on those soon.
Always a winner during the festive season these are just really moist and taste fantastic, the pastry is excellent!
