For this
taste challenge Lee tried the following Taste Inc. microwaveable snacks -
* The
original hot dog in a soft roll with ketchup and mustard
* Whole
Breast Chicken sandwich with mayo
* Flame
grilled quarter pounder with cheese and tomato ketchup
* Whole
Breast Sweet & Smokey BBQ Chicken sandwich with smoky BBQ sauce
The snacks
are really very easy to make and live up to Taste Inc.’s description of snacks
that are quick and easy to make - “open, heat and eat”.
The snacks
are a decent size and Lee found that they cooked well, with the snack being
warmed through thoroughly and the bun staying soft. Lee thought that they were
tasty and satisfied his hunger pangs.
We appreciate
the fact that all of the snacks clearly feature the calories on the front of
the packaging and that the chicken based snacks are made with 100% whole
chicken breast fillets. It is also very handy that all of the snacks come with
sachets of sauce to add to the snack once cooked, making the snacks ideal for
taking with you to work etc. where you have access to a microwave but don’t have
any sauces available to add to your food.
It is a
shame that the picture of the snacks on the packaging make the snacks look more
appealing than perhaps they are in reality, with the snacks being picture with
salad. Whilst I realise you can prepare the snacks with salad if you want I do
like food to appear as they would with the ingredients provided rather than
with extra ingredients you would have to get in addition to the snack.
Taste Inc.’s
microwaveable snacks are great for people on the go or people like Lee who want
a quick, warm snack to enjoy at work when busy and stuck for time. A big bonus
for Lee is the vast range of products available in the range of Taste Inc.
microwaveable snacks; the large range is great for providing choice and variety
but not so good if you are a vegetarian considering they are meat heavy snacks.
Whilst the
snacks are not something Lee would eat everyday they are handy at times and
great for Lee to have a warm snack quickly when busy with work. Priced at just below £2 or less if on offer
(stocked at Morrisons) they are good value for money and the 7+ days shelf life
on them can be a bonus too if you fancy stocking up on microwaveable snacks.
