Tirol Chocolate – Sakura Matcha
There are certain flavours or foods I wonder about. Some things that we take for granted would have at some point been a discovery by our ancient ancestors who took the risk to find out…
Author: zbearviking
From the frigid, majestic North (Canada), hails a creature like no other. Is it a bear that took up viking-ing? Or a viking that turned into a bear?

Pipers Crisps – Burrow Hill Cider Vinegar and Sea Salt

Haribo – Sour Gummy Mix
