Okay, technical specifications. They do contain milk so they aren't vegan, I paid £2.60 for them, and they live with the chilled food. We cooked them up the next night. I had mine with a small salad and some carrot chips and then I bit into the scampi.
It's delicious, so let's get that out of the way first. It's delicious and it has a taste and texture extremely reminiscent of scampi. It's uncanny. It has the flaking thing going on and everything. We fell in love and gobbled them up pretty quickly. I think we'll be seeing these again.
I love wandering round different supermarkets - they always have new things to try, especially if the nearby ethnic mix is different to your local one. I've yet to encounter fish-free scampi though! Mind you, with the milk content, I couldn't eat them anyway ;)
ReplyDeleteThe 'ethnic' section is my favourite. I especially love the section marked 'ethnic vegetables'although I think there is something a liiiitle racist in the naming.
