For tonight made my homemade vegan chickin pasta soup ( which contained - elbow mac pasta , carrots - matchstick cut style , chickpeas , vegan ground chickn - Tofurky brand , and all in a vegetarian vegetable broth - Knorr brand ) . I definitely rated this fine yet basic soup a vote of 10 . Also for this Christmas season I made a vegan ginger bread as always but unfortunately this time it's rating was a 4 . I believe the reason for this was I made the mistake of using a store brand of baking powder instead of my usual brand ( which at the time I bought it my brand was unavailable at the store ) . It actually tasted strangely lemony instead of gingery ( not in a good lemony way either ) what a huge disappointment . So with that never again will I buy store brand baking powder .

Saladas covered with butter and Vegemite. Looks weird but is very tasty, 9/10. While eating them I watched an episode of the 1970-1971 UK sitcom "For the Love of Ada". The episode was titled "Another Man", and I give it 8/10. Nice, gentle comedy....

I had something I seem to be having often lately, a bag of Kettle brand potato chips, Chilli with Jalapeno and Red Chillies flavour. 9/10. While eating it I watched two silent short films, the drama The Trainer's Daughter; or, A Race for Love (1907) and the semi-experimental comedy Laughing Gas (1907), both enjoyable (the latter is unusual for starring an African-American actress, and for featuring close-ups. At the time, close-ups were still relatively uncommon).

I am surprised you and jayhn1111 have never had lolly bananas before and they are some of the best lollies in the world but I heard from somebody else there are no musk lollies outside of Australia too and if you ever travel to Australia one day the first thing both of you should do is try some musk sticks or musk Lifesavers. I LOVE musk and it is addictive and delicious

Our wonderful forum folks from down under / below the equator here certainly know how to pick all the good candies indeed . There was one licorice product from Australia that is usually sold in the US grocery stores ( but wasn't always readily available ) that I really enjoyed here . Darrell Lea Soft Eating Liquorice: Strawberry Flavor The stores used to carry the raspberry flavored ones but it's been awhile since I searched for this particular candy product .

That's a good point Deb, we all have so many foods we like so we can't just give everything 9's and 10's across the board or that sorta kills the ratings process. Thanks Deb I hope you have a Merry Christmas!!! It does and what makes it harder is there are so many tasty foods out there especially chocolates and lollies. I love Cadbury chocolates the most and I got 2 Cadbury Christmas stockings along with other Cadbury Christmas goodies for Christmas.
Cadbury = awesomeness. I have not seen any of those that you posted, but they look great That would certainly make anybody's Christmas that much better

If I see the lolly bananas I will get them. I'm not sure they have them in the states? I haven't really been looking for candy in awhile. Just whatever I see in the local 7 eleven usually. I love bananas though and that would probably end up being my favorite!

Microwave reheated pizza from Benny Boys Pizza, which is located in tree-less Ferntree Gully, Victoria, Australia.
7.5/10. I enjoyed it.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I had two flavours, one of which is "Vegetarian" and the other is "Garlic" (yes, there's a garlic pizza....)

For me this late morning / afternoon I had a can of organic vegetarian baked beans ( store brand ) with a good serving of MorningStar Farms Meal Starters Pulled Pork (vegan) mixed into it . The sauce was a bit thin in the baked beans but once I added the vegan pulled pork it evened it out nicely . I gave this meal a 9 out of 10 in quality here .

Darrell Lea Soft Eating Liquorice: Strawberry Flavor The stores used to carry the raspberry flavored ones but it's been awhile since I searched for this particular candy product . OMG. I love Darrell Lea licorice and my nieces and Uncle love it too. I remember when they first introduced the raspberry flavoured ones here and over the past two decades they have introduced grape, green apple, pineapple, watermelon, mango and blackberry flavoured licorice too and you can get some of them with white chocolate on them. Darrell Lea used to be really popular here and it had stores all across Australia but the company sadly went broke after 85 years and the stores were closed down. Thankfully new owners took it over and you can get Darrel Lea products in Coles, Woolworths and other supermarkets and chemists. I love their Easter Eggs the most and they have Darrell Lea Turkish Delight, Honeycomb, Rocklea Road, Nougat and 100s and 1000s eggs and they are delicious.
