Maryland Gooeys Cookies Chocolate
I first bought these cookies after seeing an advertisement on TV for them. I’m not generally swayed at all by adverts, but these cookies really did look absolutely delicious: a normal chocolate chip cookie, with a smooth chocolatey filling inside? Yes, definitely something I’d love.
So I went to my …
Great Value: Hamburger Buns

Kellogg’s Corn Flakes breakfast cereal

Baskin Robbins ice cream cakes

Knorr Pasta Sides Chicken Broccoli

Sainsbury’s Farfalle Durham Wheat Dried Pasta
