Hi-Chew Doubles – Fig & Momotaro Grape
I’m always excited to try a new Hi-Chew flavour. Doubly so when one or both of the flavours involves grape. Pun intended. I can’t say I’m too experienced with figs. Sometimes it shows up in…

Mentos – Cherry & Pineapple
Some combinations can make you scratch your head and wonder at what the thought process behind it was. Cherry and pineapple aren’t exactly fruits or flavours I tend to associate with each other, so this…
