I have recently been sampling a number of products from the Nairns range after I tried Nairns Caramelised OnionOat Bakes....which were delicious! My newest purchase was for Nairn's Cheesey Oatcakes - which are equally delicious and are destined to become a favourite in my household. One of the real benefits of eating Nairns Oatcakes is that they are pretty healthy to eat - and so they make a really great snack. One oatcake is just 39 calories and contains just 2g of fat. Compare that to my usual chocolate digestives and eating these is really helping in my efforts to loose weight. Because oars are high in fibre and high in slow release carbohydrates, the ...  Read the complete review

~Introduction~ My little boy loves the Marmite ricecrackers, but when they sold out of them in my local supermarket, I had to buy an alternative. Looking down the isle there were many plain ricecracker biscuits, I find these so dry. Also there were caramel and toffee covered ones, not so healthy! So I found these, they were cheesy and looked healthy so I thought I'd give them a go. ~Positives~ They are a healthy alternative to crisps like Mini cheddars. They taste really similar actually and are healthy too! Win win! The Cheesy taste in not too overpowering, I found some products with cheese in really cheddary and not that ...  Read the complete review

Nairn's Cheesy Oatcakes My daughter gave me a packet of these last weekend. She was telling me how nice they are after I had been saying that I wasn't too keen on oatcakes in general. I had said they had no taste so she brought me a pack of these cheesy ones over to try instead and I have to say that I was quite impressed. These are great little biscuits that can either be bought in a box containing 4 packets of 8 biscuits, or can be bought separately as individual little packs. This allows them to be eaten a pack at a time so the remaining biscuits stay fresh in their packs. ~~~ The biscuits ~~~ The biscuits ...  Read the complete review

My new year's resolution is to eat more healthily - and that includes finding a healthy snack to replace crisps and biscuits. I think this might just fit the bill! Nairn's "naturally nutritious" cheese oatcakes are full of oats (70%) which are high in fibre to give slow release energy. They have no added sugar and no hydrogenated fats. But they are not particularly low fat. They contain 15% cheese - which is good for authenticity (and taste) but not so good for the waist line. At 37 calories per oatcake they are not particularly good in the weight loss department (if you eat lots). After all a jaffa cake is only 44 calories and has half the fat of an ...  Read the complete review

Well, I seem to be churning out the reviews lately, and today's is another food review! Please note, I'm not sure if these are meant to be Cheesey or Cheese oatcakes - my packet says Cheese, and Cheesey doesn't actually seem to be a word (it's Cheesy), but I suggested the product to DooYoo and the link I gave them was to a cheesey picture! Now, with that out of the way.... ---Buying the Oatcakes--- Last week in Tesco I had put oatcakes on my shopping list (always good to have in the cupboard for a snack), and when I got to the oatcake section I found it quite hard to decide as there seems to be so much choice these days. I picked up ...  Read the complete review
