I'm pretty excited to hear i'm not the only person who knows that losing weight is easier when your a pesceterian. I love seafood & all it has to offer.

I'm very interested in trying these products

I agree with Food Miles. Unless it's a microwave oven or a knife, review only what has hope of surviving in the wild.

However, I have to thank you for clearly stating that this post is sponsored, though it does pain me to see a good blog wasting time reviewing products they don't fully believe in.

I’ve had a meatless lasagna before and it wasn’t too bad! Although, I’m not sure if I’m ready to subsitute it for meat!

as I will too.

Clearly there is always a balance to be found between being avid food enthusiasts, taking advantage of opportunities created by being popular bloggers and sating an interested audience. Not always easy.

Hi Foodmiles. Totally agree with everything you said. We don't do many product reviews, I can't even remember the last one we did but I''ll admit we have done them. At the time we thought it would be a decent product to try when approached, because Linda is a Vegetarian.

In saying that, I’m looking forward to posting more stuff like how to roast a suckling pig!

I really like this blog, for its personality and good naturedness (if a word!) But please don't turn into another commercialized Not Quite Nigella. Spruiking Quorn of all things….

Quorn remains a niche food in the UK, having to be re-launched several times and face constant queries about ingredient labelling. It's a manufactured food.

I would argue that food blogs have a responsibility to encourage eating of great food and that should really be all about natural ingredients, whether it be seasonal vegetables or spit roasted suckling pig. At least write about something that can grow or live wild!

sorry, mini-rant over
