Last week I did a story about Danny Andrews who is the original meme, he is
00:06
the fish and rice cakes guy from 18 years ago. He's decided after years and
00:12
years of being ashamed of it, of being cyberbullied over it, that he's going to
00:17
retake it back, he's going to make some money off it and he's come up with his
00:22
own protein rice cake. So I asked him to send me some, he has done, he sent me the
00:28
milk chocolate flavour and the white chocolate flavour. I'm going to give them
00:32
a try just to see what they taste like. I'll be honest I'm not a fitness
00:38
person, I'm definitely not a bodybuilder, but I just thought I'd have a look at
00:43
them for the people who wanted to increase their protein in their diet, I
00:48
know there's quite a few of those people around, wanted something else to snack
00:53
on, so let's have a look at them. So the packaging, I think that the packaging is
00:58
pretty good actually. I don't know how Danny's gone about getting hold of
01:03
the copyright from the BBC but it's got that iconic meme picture of him there.
01:09
So we've got 15 grams per pack, so that's seven and a half grams per rice
01:17
cake, I take it because there's two rice cakes per pack. We've got three grams of
01:22
sugar per cake, so allergen info there in case you're allergic to any of those
01:31
things. Lactose, so you're a nut, store in a cool dry place, once they're open you've
01:38
got to eat them within 24 hours. So yeah and if you're interested, that's his
01:43
website where they're currently available and I know that Danny has said
01:47
that the long-term plan is to get them into supermarkets of course, but getting
01:53
them into gyms I think is phase two, but currently on his website. So opened one
01:59
of each and they are both covered all the way around, not just on the top. Now
02:04
Danny has said to me to be completely honest with this review because he's
02:09
that confident in them that people will love them, so I'm gonna have a bite out
02:13
of both and then I'll come back to you. Right I've had a taste of both, they are
02:19
really nice to his credit, they're very nice, quite thick chocolate actually on
02:26
them, I can't complain. I do like a rice cake anyway, but they're quite
02:33
nice and I was worried that the chocolate was going to be all cheap and
02:36
nasty, it's not. I think I personally prefer the milk chocolate, that's just a
02:40
personal preference for me, it just it has more taste in general, but nice and
02:47
crispy rice cakes, nice tasting chocolate, I mean what more can you say. The only
02:51
thing I was just wondering about and I looked on the back, per 31 gram cake, they are
02:57
quite chunky, they're quite solid things, 31 grams. If you look at the amount of
03:03
saturated fat, we have got, it's 15% of your daily recommended intake. Now I
03:13
don't know if that's a lot or not, but it seems a lot. I guess if you are a
03:18
bodybuilder or you're into your fitness, that might not be such a concern of
03:22
yours, so, but I just wanted to point that out, that's the nutritional
03:26
information there per cake, for anybody who is interested. But yeah, Danny, I think
03:36
they're pretty good mate, I think you've done well and I hope that they sell well
03:39
for you, because you've had a lot of trolling over the years and I hope that
03:44
you can bring it back and do something good with it.
