Taste test notes
u0026#149; It looks more like a traditional shape, good even centred cross, but little spice aroma and texture and crumbled on eating.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Looks like a plump nice bun, and texture looks great but powdery unpleasant mouthfeel. Hard to differentiate taste and texture because texture makes it unpleasant to eat.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Smells like flaxseed but not unpleasant.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Looks nice and fluffy but it's powdery – not a pleasant eating texture. Bland taste, better mouthfeel when toasted. Lingering flaxseed aftertaste.u003cbru003e u0026#149; Visually good looking but fake smell.u003cbru003e
