Category:  Sweets/Doces Brand:  Sweet Corner Supermarket:  Lidl Cost: £0.89 This is a 230g package of Fruit Pastilles. Pastilles is the most similar name to describe this sweet, since its consisty after chewing is a bit as gelly that doesn't melt in one's mouth. I would say the effect is similar to "sugus" - for those who remember this candy by it's name and brand although the appearance is different.   The package says it comes in 5 flavours: Strawberry, orange, lemon, blackcurrant and lime.  Looking close to the Nutrition Table one can see the value of ONE SINGLE piece of this candy. Each a 23g as 13.9g of sugar. Man! That's a lot!!! One can actually see the amount of sugar falling out of the candy is so much that it could help top up your sugar pot at home. Flavour wise is not great. Is almost plaint. It tastes like... artificial flavours mixed with a hight dose of sugar.  This candy business is getting VERY ugly. The nutrition values are a joke the...

  Category:  Pastry Brand:   Supermarket:  Lidl Cost: £0.89 Part of the "LIMITED offer" segment, Lidl supermarket is now selling this trendy Pistachio Brioche . In reality, a croissant, which description says " flaky butter filled with a sweet pistachio cream, frequently topped with pistachio pieces or icing ". As one can see from the image this ones are NOT topped with pieces of the fruit they just have a string of icing. Lets cut it open to see how it is inside.  I bought two in case I really adored the flavor. I was "starving" when I gave my first bite. It's bland.  The cream has no flavor, not even a bit of it. The dough is also not nice. It's not flaky it is just a pasty flavorless texture demanding a lot of chewing. You just want to spit it out.    Veredict:   Strait into the BIN!  I will give this my first OFF SHART evaluation: A ZERO. For just HORRIBLE !  

Category: Cheese Brand: Milbona Supermarket: Lidl Cost: £1.65 First thing one notices when going to open this package of Milbona's French Brie cheese is the stamp with the info: NOT FOR EU. (European Union). One has to ask WHY is that so. We all know United Kingdom left the EU for economical benefits yet,  have this reasons been beneficial for UK citizens? Well, here is an intriguing product: a cheese "MADE IN FRANCE" (which is European Union) not meant to reach supermarket shelves in any other countries of the European Union. Here's a photo of the listed ingredients and the production/distribution addresses. One HAS TO WONDER what CRITERIA is there not being MET so to be legal to sale this cheese in the United Kingdom but NOT in France where it is "made".  Cuts open easily, keeps its consistency. It's not flavored. But it is nice. Smooth. It goes well inside bread. The texture is what makes this cheese interesting. I will give it a 5 out of 5 .  Is t...
