Tesco Plant Chef

A very ordinary garden burger- nothing at all wrong with it. Otherwise not notable at all! Price is just about average too.

Chicago Town

These are two little “personal” size pizzas. They’re not bad- the sauce and cheese are both fine, toppings are ok though a little slight, and does well in the oven. By no means a remarkable experience, but it would be hard more

Strong Roots

This is a frozen ready meal with the minimum amount of non-recyclable packaging and it’s actually fantastic. The taste is not strong and, importantly, not uncanny. The texture is fantastic! Cooks in about 8 minutes from more

Linda McCartney's

A frozen delight: the OG veggie sausages and still as good as they were in the 80s (if I’m remembering correctly) when I first had them. That’s a fresh variant that’s a lot handier for cooking or barbecuing too.

Seabrook

Taste? Not spicy, a mild salsa like flavour. Very crunchy. All in all these are ok and a lot better accompanied by actual salsa. I was once upbraided on Facebook for recommending a store bought vegan salsa by a person who more

Olly's Pretzels

The sour cream and onion flavour in a 120kcal pack! Good but not a very strong taste (vegan like the rest I’ve tried). The best tasting still seems to be the sweet chilli one. These are good value!

Vego

Well this is the same classic Vego - there’s a lot of chocolate here, nothing mini about it, with a few whole hazelnuts mixed in for good measure. The taste is smoother than dark chocolate, but definitely on that flavour more

Divine Chocolate

Divine, the fairtrade chocolate brand, seems to have more or less disappeared from stores, besides this Easter themed offering. It’s squarely aimed at those who like the taste of dark chocolate, the raspberry part is really more

Trafo

An organic potato chip with a wonderful Rosemary flavour! Organic to boot. It is pricey, but very good quality

Proper Crisps

A* for their crunchiness, triangular shape and good taste! The company is a B corp as well. These are not excessively spicy
