    Talking to myself on this thread possibly.. however, I've just discovered something I ordered which I don't like- finally- and thought I'd share. The de identified sugar free jellies- no one likes them I wonder if its the whole sugar free thing, but they are tasteless, I think. The kids won't eat them- yet- but in desperation in a while who knows?Anyone else agree? Not sure if it is date related or just the product.
    i think it is because they lack sugar.Hopefully you did not buy lots of them

    I ordered some of those jellies, I am waiting for my order to be delivered but when it is I will let you know what we think of them. My son used to like these a year or two ago, I think it was from Morrisons, he ate them back then but who knows with teenagers! Even if they are sugar-free, and we have had the sugar-free ones before, they should still taste fruity, especially if it's citrus. :rolleyes:

    just had a delivery

    the maryland cereal/cookie bars are very nice
    cafe noir biscuits excellent
    hubby says branston gherkin pickle good - expecially for burgers

    drinks - mi wadi juices, H2oh water and citrus fruit and barley squash all sugar free - which could be useful for info as I don't think itis clear on all of them on the site (I wanted sugar free)

    lots more to try so wil report back later
