President Slightly Salted Butter Block 250g
22 March 2010

Good quality butter
This is my choice for both eating and cooking - it isn't watery and has an excellent flavour with just the right amount of salt for my palate.

Hengstenberg Bavarian Style Sauerkraut Chucrut 680g

Not as good as the old one
I was a bit disappointed to get this one instead of the Gundelsheim that was previously stocked. This is saltier and has less of a tang. It isn't bad, just not as good.

Beechams All-In-One Liquid 160ml

Not effective
The nasal decongestant in this doesn't work, so you are just paying for paracetamol and cough syrup.

Chapel Hill Sparkling Chardonnay / Pinot, Hungary 75cl

Alcopop
This was substituted for the cava I'd ordered. Nice delicate mousse but vilely sweet. Almost undrinkable on its own, it was not too bad with a Vietnamese lemongrass chilli chicken. I won't buy it again unless I need a cheap bubbly for a dessert.

Frozen Organic Petits Pois Waitrose 500g

Not very nice
Tough, floury and not very sweet. Definitely not what I want when I buy peas!

Home Ripening Nectarines essential Waitrose 4 per pack
14 August 2012

Home ripening but already rotten
Within a day these "home ripening" nectarines were already mouldy and liquifying. Totally bizarre when the "ripe and ready to eat" fruit sometimes takes a week to soften. I won't bother trying to buy stonefruit online again.

Ground French Cafetiere Coffee Waitrose 227g

Great value for money
The grind is the perfect size for my cafetiere and the flavour is lovely and rich. Much better value for money than a lot of the other coffees I have tried.

Costa Fine-Leaf Quick Dissolving Gelatine 25g
14 August 2012
Share
Good product, not great directions
This leaf gelatine dissolves quickly and easily, doesn't go lumpy and sets firm. Really, really firm. A redesign of the packaging to state what sort of set "15 leaves to set 1.25l liquid" means - I used less than the stated amount to make a panna cotta and it was set much too firmly. But it would have been great for a moulded jelly.

Clarence Court Quail Eggs 12 per pack

Good but fiddly
Trying to peel these things almost cost me my sanity. The ones that survived the process were delicious and looked good, but I will only buy these again if I am cracking raw eggs, to poach or something.
