As a busy mum of 2 daughters - 5 years old and almost 2 years old - I am always looking for ways of squeezing some extra time out of my day AND getting some half decent nutrition into my whirlwind daughters. On a Wednesday night my eldest daughter attends ballet class, which doesn't finish until nearly 5pm by the time she is changed. This means a mad rush home then for a quick tea. Both girls have a hot dinner at school and nursery on a Wednesday, so only a light supper is required when we get home. Heinz Spaghetti Hoops on toast is always a big hit on this occasion! The hoops are ready cooked and just need heating. The hoops can be either ...  Read the complete review

My girls love beans on toast, it is always a hit when I serve it up at lunchtime and a meal that the whole family enjoys. I also love the fact that something so quick and easy is also nutritious and gives them the energy they need for their busy little days. Some days however I do find myself questioning whether I should serve them beans again..... that the is the question that whirls round my vacant brain - how many times can you serve either beans or fish fingers in a week and still be a good mother?? Anyway when I was shopping this week I decided to perhaps try and venture to a new part of the tinned section in the supermarket. I spotted ...  Read the complete review

Anyone who has read my previous reviews will know that I am a big fan of cheap, value products. However one exception I take to this is Heinz. I have always been a fan of Heinz products and don't believe their quality can be matched so I tend to buy their products over cheaper versions to get the best tasting food. My son is a real fan of their spaghetti hoops so this is now a regular item on my shopping list. ~The Product~ Heinz spaghetti hoops are basically small rings of spaghetti which are soaked in a lovely rich tomato sauce. Heinz have recently changed the type of spaghetti used in these tins to multigrain spaghetti which means you are now getting ...  Read the complete review

Spaghetti Hoops are a nice twist on the normal tinned foods that you can put on top of toast to create a light and quick snack. I have eaten hoops several times and they make a good change from normal spaghetti and beans, although hoops are only spaghetti in a different shape they still feel on some level a different food item. Like a lot of products on the market less expensive versions from supermarkets and others are available but oftentimes Heinz really do make superior items and this is reflected in the price and in this case you are not paying extra money for the branded name only. A 400g tin of these is roughly 60 pence which I think is quite ...  Read the complete review

I had spaghetti hoops on toast today for the first time in AGES. I used to love them but ate too many over the years and got so bored of them that I just never ate any for a long time, I fancied them big time today and was glad to see that my mum still buys Heinz even though she's trying a lot of supermarket brands at the minute. Heinz have deffo changed the recipe, the hoops are the same as they always have been but the sauce isn't as rich and it doesn't have much taste to it. They've probably taken some of the salt out or something because the sauce deffo doesn't taste right to me. The spaghetti hoops are perfect. They're just the right size ...  Read the complete review
