I have always heard great things about the Tony chocolate brand, but annoyingly I have never been able to find the vegan versions anywhere near me. In fact the only ones I have ever been able to find were in specialist vegan chocolate gift packs online, which is actually how I obtained this. I was … Continue reading Tony’s chocolonely sea salt and dark chocolate bar

Crosstown Speculoos doughnut
It has been a hot minute since I have had a doughnut, and strictly speaking I did have this over the new year period, and I am still thinking about it even now. I will start by saying that I got this at the Soho store, and I am told that the stores can sometimes … Continue reading Crosstown Speculoos doughnut
Tortilla Beyond Meat Burrito
It is currently -3 degrees Celsius here in the UK and it has been threatening to snow for about a week at this point too.

One of the things I began to focus on more in 2023 was reading. As a child, I could read for hours at a time and easily get through a hundred books a year. Sadly, as with all childhood things, I lost the joy of reading as I grew older and my focus shifted onto … Continue reading New book reviews
Can vegans wear wool?
I saw an interesting debate online the other day about whether wool was ethical or not for vegans. The most interesting part though was that some people seemed to be very much split down the middle. Now I always advocate that veganism is a lifestyle and not a diet, in that you can eat a … Continue reading Can vegans wear wool?
Krispy Kreme cookies and Kreme

It is essentially the original glazed doughnut with vanilla cookie kreme frosting, topped with cookie crumb. It is made in conjunction with the chocolate cookie crunch that Krispy Kreme also released for Veganuary this year. Thankfully … Continue reading Krispy Kreme cookies and Kreme
