I decided to figure out which biscuit rolls are worth buying, and which ones are better to leave on the shelf. It turned out that out of 4 brands, only one is edible.
As a kid, I loved cream-filled biscuit rolls. The stores had a large assortment of different tastes, and recently I discovered that there were only 2-3 types of such rolls in the store. But what surprised me most was that most of the rolls are extremely cheap.
I walked through four supermarkets of federal brands and found a similar picture everywhere. All supermarkets sell mainly rolls of their own brands. I also noticed that the price is equally low everywhere, which means, most likely, the products are of poor quality.
As a result, I decided to check all 4 rolls from different supermarkets. The result, to put it mildly, is deplorable. Of the four rolls, I ate only one, I will talk about it separately at the end, but for now, let's look at all the participants.
In order not to litter the article with a large number of photos, I made a gallery for each brand, where you can see the price, composition, manufacturer and appearance of the product. To do this, scroll through the photos to the side.
First thing (Dixie)
The sponge cake at the roll is quite edible. Most importantly, it is not dry, but I did not like the taste of the filling. The presence of vegetable fats is clearly felt. After the test, I just want to drink hot tea.
It's better not to even look at the composition, it is so-so here. But most of all I was surprised by the postscript at the very end of the composition: "With excessive use, it can have a laxative effect." Interestingly, how much is excessive use? I tried just a piece, I hope it will, or rather, not. Rated 1 out of 5
Signor rouletto (magnet)
I didn't like the taste of the roll. The sponge cake is not dry, but the filling does not look like cream at all. The cream has a darker color than other rolls and a viscous consistency. The composition is no longer as long as that of its predecessor, but here, too, everything is on substitutes. Rated 2 out of 5
Russian biscuit (Faithful)
When I opened the package, I had the feeling that in front of me was the same biscuit as from Dixie. I checked the manufacturer and turned out to be right, both rolls were made at the same enterprise. So first I decided to check if there was a “laxative warning” on the package.
If you know where to look, it is easy to find a warning, here it was also placed at the very end of the train. He tried it cautiously. Surprisingly, the roll that the factory makes under its own brand tasted worse than the one they make for Dixie.
The biscuit is dry, and the fillings are generally spared. It turned out that this is the only roll, which also weighs only 150 grams, although the rest are 200 grams. That is, it is also the most expensive of all. Rated 0 out of 5
Red price (Pyaterochka)
This is the only roll, whose composition fit in 5 lines, and despite the fact that the font is much larger. I can't say that the composition is good, it still contains vegetable oils, and it is not indicated which ones. But the rest of the composition is not bad.
The roll turned out to taste better than everyone else, there is no sugary sweetness in it and you don't want to drink it with tea right away. True, the cream is completely tasteless, strawberry jam gives all the sweetness to the roll. Rated 3 out of 5
Outcome
The result surprised me. I did not expect that out of 4 rolls, in my opinion, only one will be edible. And this, as you might guess, is a roll from Pyaterochka. The rest I would not recommend buying. Although no, you can buy rolls from "Russian Biscuit", but only as a laxative.
In the end, I would like to say, be sure to read the composition before buying, so as not to accidentally end up in the toilet after a tea break. And the best way is to cook the roll at home. I have already picked up the recipe, will soon be on the channel - subscribe not to miss.
Which products do you always read the composition of, and which do you buy without looking?
