Bisto - Curry Sauce Mix

This Bisto curry sauce was like a corrupted memory of actual curry sauce

2/10
Nothing Phone (2) - Six month review

Here comes Nothing

9/10
Riverford - Organic Mince Pies (Authentic Bread Company)

I could feel my day slipping away from me like the £6.25 I had spent on this box of dropped-looking turds

2/10
Tesco's 6 Merry Mince Pies

The filling felt like the taste equivalent of an asterix at the end of a word; easily unnoticed

2/10
Crackd - The No-Egg Egg

Perfect for scrambled egg stock photography

1/10
Asteroid City (2023)

If you thought this movie was anything deeper than a small puddle, then I have a bridge to sell you

2/10
Meatless Farm - Chickenless Roast

It just tasted of, according to my notes at the time, 'eating the wrong air', which I can only unfold to be that it felt like something was really not right

1/10
Chado Tea Shop - Avo Toast & Istanbul No. 2 tea

Looking like a small lost surfboard returning to shore along with the treasures and plantation of Atlantis placed atop

9/10
Aga Hamami - Turkish Hammam

After the initial scrub, cold water was thrown on me which felt amazingly renewing - possibly the only time I've enjoyed having cold water thrown on me without warning

8/10
Arada Beyrut Cafe - Istanbul

I had already lost my mind about the potential food combinations I could create. Cheese with honey? I am Greek royalty. Tomatoes dusted with exotic spices? I am a Mediterainnian millionaire. A doughnut with my coffee? I am an uncouth American.
