I don’t know about you, but when I see bloggers review products they have been sent, I wonder if their opinions would stay the same had they paid for it themselves. Most of my Snacking Saturday posts involve products that have been sent to me for the purpose of the series, and I think sometimes it might be good to look back and see what really did make an impression.
Back in May I review Metcalfe’s Skinny Topcorn and it received glowing praise….did it really deserve that review though?
In short. Yes.
I have spent a small fortune buying Metcalfe’s products since then, most notably the Wasabi and Salt varieties
My Mum, one of the fussiest snackers known to man-kind ordered a bulk box of the salt variety, and I demand friends drive me to the local garden centre so I can get my wasabi fix! The man who works in the Bristol Pret (a stockist) now greets me with a smirk and a carrier bag!
I’ll admit I’ve not purchased the Chocolate variety since. It wasn’t my favourite, although still very, very edible!
Good news for those still seeking to get hold of this crack… Metcalfes have expanded their stockists to include Julian Graves, Sainsburys and Sainsburys Online!
On the website you’ll find a selection of NEW products including wasabi peas, chocolate edamame and coated rice cakes…all of which I am yet to try but are lined up for my next order.
