Curious one this time:
Doritos Combinations: Honey Glazed Ribs & Lemon Blast
I am the king of fussy eaters and always hate things others like, this is a rare exception where I didn't mind this but everyone else who tried it despised it. The Lemon doritos have a strong taste that's initially a little salt and vinegar like but then the lemon comes through, an odd choice but it was alright even if it was the one that specifically disgusted others. The Honey glaze ones are more conventional but do actually taste as they're described. Now, as both flavours are mixed in one bag you're also supposed to combine the chips and they worked fine together too. Still, I have to factor in how unpopular they were with others so a middle ground score for this one.

Coke Zero Cinnamon Limited Edition
I think this is off shelves now but was available over Christmas. The taste is pretty subtle to be honest and may have had a chance of working but as is usually the case the naff diet element of the drink butchers the flavouring and makes it taste like cheap supermarket brand knock off stuff.

Coke Zero Raspberry
Another new flavour, I've tried Raspberry Coca Cola before thanks to the awesome machines in Burger King where you can customise your drink. It works well there and here you get a sense of the same taste but again the diet aspect spoils it. Literally no idea why Coca Cola find it so hard to make non-diet variants available.

Bordersdown Creation: Vimta Cola
Simple and likely tried by many, take your full fat Cola and mix it with full fat Vimto. You have to get the balance right though as it's very easy to make this like a sugar explosion in your mouth but once you've nailed that balance. Nectar of the Gods!

Do they have Jack Fulton's down south? It's like this frozen food shop that gets in loads of cheap stuff not far from its sell by date, you can go in with a quid and get a cool drink and munchies and still have change.
£1.29 for 6 cans of root beer. Jack Fulton's. Frozen value...except they weren't frozen (they were warm).

Still hating the paper straws places are introducing though at some point presumably they'll change again as companies start lobbing down trees again because the volume of recyclable materials starts to dry up.
Seen FinalStraw which looks like a good option to pick up if it can eventually be bought for a more reasonable price.

A drink that I've recently gone crazy for is 'Relentless Apple & Kiwi' which tastes like Appletiser but in a nice big can for £1.
When it comes to crisps -- I'm loving 'Jacob's Cracker Crisps'. Very moreish.
