Only a 'slight' diversion, so to make ammends, Asda Smart Price soap test.

Absoluely fine. Lathers nicely, and doesn't stink of perfumy stuff.

My boys tell me that Smart Price Jaffa Cakes are smaller and not "quite" as good as the real ones.
They can tell the difference in "blind testing" but given the choice of Asda or nowt they say that Asda are "acceptable"

Not something I would ever get excited about, I have eaten about 5 or 6 at various times in my life, if now suitable alternative were available.  On my list of food to eat if I am starving, down there with snake and stuff.  noooo:
