Big Kitty Again! + Kaffre talks Candy #64

Oops it's really very easy to lose track of time as a lil' newborn kitten, but thankfully I managed to remember to make a new journal and revert back to my normal age again before the end of the month!

My birthday was pretty uneventful due to Covid, but I did acquire a new backpack, a few anime t-shirts (TPN and MiA), and ordered myself Munchkin Tails (the furry version of Munchkin) as well as ordering a pretty tasty family meal from a mid-tier local fast-food place (I got a roasted vegetable sandwich and waffle fries with cheese). It was also my first chance in a while to visit both Midori and the British Isles Shoppe so I'm currently flush with imported snacks and candy from two very different parts of the world though, regrettably, by Rightstuf order is still delayed due to certain items being out of stock.

I guess that's all I really have to say for this month, but thanks for taking the time to read my humble journal *hugs*

Kaffre talks Candy #64:

Name: Kit Kat Duos (Mocha+Chocolate)
Manufacturer: Hershey
Size: 42 gram bar
Where Purchased: Neat Things
Description: This item resembles the standard Kit Kat save that the top is coffee-coloured and bottom a very dark brown.
Opinion: Part of my birthday gift from my sister, this bar was an interesting one. The coffee flavouring, while enjoyable, was far less intense than I had expected, but the real surprise (for me at least) was the dark chocolate aftertaste and how well it complimented the coffee. Overall, I enjoyed this item and would definitely consider purchasing it again.

Name: Little Debbie Honey Buns
Manufacturer: McKee Foods
Size: 301 gram box (6 pastries)
Where Purchased: Dollarama
Description: Consists of a circular pastrie somewhat reminiscent of very thin cinnamon buns in terms of shape, but lacking any sort of filling and covered with a sweet translucent glaze. Come individually wrapped in cellophane pouches.
Opinion: A product I've had before a long time ago, but never thought to review. The product has a mind, but pleasant flavour that is indeed reminiscent of honey. While I thought this product was reasonably tasty, its status as a 'breakfast pastrie' leaves me without a useful frame of reference except to say that these are better than I remembered and that I would consider buying them again.

Name: Magikarp Sparkling Water (Litchi)
Manufacturer: QDOL
Size: 330ml can.
Where Purchased: Midori
Description: Lychee flavoured sparkling water.
Opinion: An item from China selected by my sister. I'm not sure whether I've tasted anything lychee flavoured before or not, but google describes the fruit as having a tasting like grape, peach, rose, or watermelon and I definitely got hints of both peach and what I'm assuming was rose. The flavour was very mild, however, and while not bad by any means the can is probably the most appealing part at least for Pokemon fans.

Name: Terry's Chocolate Orange (Popping Candy)
Manufacturer: Mondelez (Chocolate Works)
Size: 147 gram sphere
Where Purchased: Walmart
Description: Terry's Chocolate Orange (Popping Candy) consists of 20 wedge-shaped segments of orange-flavoured milk chocolate, with 'popping candy' embedded in them, that have been arranged radially around a central point and fused together.
Opinion: A variation on the classic holiday orange that I hadn't seen before and decided to snap up. On the plus side, it tasted almost exactly like a normal Terry's Chocolate Orange. Unfortunately, however, (for me at least), the popping candy lent a weird - though not unpleasant sensation and little else. It didn't ruin the product for me or anything, but I think I prefer the regular variety and probably would not buy this again.

Name: Walkers Madras Curry Crisps
Manufacturer: Walkers Snack Foods
Size: Five 25 gram bags bundled together.
Where Purchased: British Isles Shoppe
Description: Consists of fairly ordinary-looking potato chips with a slight orange cast. According to the packaging, they're flavoured to taste like the signature dish of 'The Radhuni' an Indian restaurant in Loanhead Scotland.
Opinion: I'm not sure what this is *supposed* to taste like, but while milder than I was expecting (particularly after Lay's 'Magic Masala') I did find the flavour quite pleasant not really 'hot', but the flavours of tomato, garlic, paprika, and especially coconut milk were all blended nicely. Overall, I liked this product and would consider buying it again, but will seek out the other 'Local Restaurant' flavours first.
