Burtons Original Wagon Wheels

Description: Chocolate covered biscuits with marshmallow and jam

http://www.burtonsfoods.com

Wagon Wheels are names because of their shape. They are basically a circular chocolate covered biscuit. Inside, there is soft mallow and a thin layer of jam. The biscuit is quite soft too, so biting into one of these is a soft and chewy experience, rather than a crunchy one.

Ingredients are as follows;

Wheat Flour, Glucose Syrup, Sugar, Vegetable Fat, Raspberry Flavour Plum Jam(5%)(Glucose Fructose Syrup, Plums, Humectant(Glycerol), Gelling Agent(Pectins), Citric Acid, Acidity Regulator(Trisodium citrate), Natural

In each biscuit there is 162 calories, of which 5.7g is fat, so they are not very good for you but certainly not the worst either.

I used to eat these as a kid and they seem a lot smaller. They are also thinner, which is a shame as they used to feel like a treat. now, one seems vaguely unsatisfying and a little bit bland and you end up reaching for another one. The problem is that by the time you have eaten the second one, you feel a little sick!

I am not sure if I like these as much as I used to. This may be because I have grown up, or it may be because they have changed since I was a kid, either way, I don't think I would bother buying these again. I paid £1 for a 6 pack on offer in Asda, but even on offer, don't think I would bother again.

Summary: Not worth the money in my opinion
