RJIE 2: Maui Brownie Madness

New tag! RJIE - random junk I eat. Sometimes I eat things that I can't be bothered to make a formal blog post about, whether it be because I can't be bothered, I didn't take enough photos at the time or there's really nothing more to say about it. Its just things I've eaten and my opinion on them. Who knows, maybe I can persuade you to have something you normally wouldn't think of eating? Or dissuade you from eating something that might absolutely horrific?

You know the kind of thing I'm talking about, when you go out with a friend or grocery shopping with one and they go, "Oh xxxxxxx I love that!" And since your friend loves it, you think of trying it, even though you normally would never think of getting that stuff. I went shopping with my Boyfriend and he buys stuff I would in a million years think of getting or making, he loves AM noodles which apparently are the "most healthy" instant noodle on the market, he gets bean sprouts and alfalfa sprouts as snacks and he convinced me to try pesto and cheese toasties, fantastic by the way. I will never buy any of these items ever, but its good to know. I've done the same to him with Danish feta, Banneton garlic turkish bread, Boggo Road market fruit punch and plenty of other things I'm probably forgetting.

The opposite is also true, where a friend will go, "oh god, never try that ever, ever, ever." I'm probably among the more vocal of my friends though, in how much I dislike or like a place or food.

Today's RJIE is . . .

Maui Brownie Madness! Good god, that is a pretty picture.

After my sister and I went to the Sushi Train in Chatswood, we decided to get some dessert and I got myself a single scoop waffle cone of this concoction for about $6. It was a much smaller cone that the one I had gotten at Gelati Madness at West End only a few days ago, so I was disappointed  in that aspect.

Apparently its a chocolate yoghurt, brownie bits, macadamia nuts and chocolate fudge ribboned throughout. I couldn't notice the difference and wasn't aware that it was a yoghurt based ice cream at all! It does explain why my lactose intolerance flared up so bad afterwards though. I thought it was decent, I found the flavour to be overly rich and to get a bit annoying to eat after a while, even the nuts didn't offer enough of a contrast to me. Wouldn't eat again, but I would if someone offered it to me.
