They go alright with weetbix in the morning tho. (only just)

This one was better than the photo suggests, I'd give it a 7/10. I love the clean flavour of them, great to cleanse the palate after a meal. Also in Viet the done thing was to chuck them in the blender with Vietnamese vodka. Lots of vodka

Here's the rambo.

I would call it extremely bland, it looks nice though. Give me Mango, pineapple orange, kiwifruit, lychees, well almost anything.
