Goody! De Luxe Muesli

When I was at Minnowburn on Saturday, a fellow NT volunteer, Heather, apprised me of what she regarded as an exceedingly good muesli. Heather asked me if I consumed the stuff and I replied that I ate the Alpen Original variety; whereupon she scoffed and urged me to try her preferred muesli.

It is sold by a German "value" supermarket chain which uses an Eire website in Northern Ireland, a practice of which Timothy Belmont disapproves; moreover, many of the perishable groceries emanate from the Irish Republic, too.

I am of the opinion that this German business ought to show some respectfulness by using their UK web address and supporting more UK produce in Northern Ireland.

Nevertheless, I ambled in today and sought this muesli. It is in a foil bag; weighs 750 grams; is called Goody Special  Luxury Fruit & Nut Muesli. It contains:-
  • raisins 
  • sultanas
  • pineapple
  • banana pieces
  • dates
  • papaya
  • oat flakes
  • barley flakes
  • nuts (coconut, almonds, hazel nuts, pecan nuts)
  • wheat flakes
  • pumpkin seeds.

It costs £1.89.

Heather was right. It is very, very tasty; the description of ingredients is true and accurate. I haven't tasted a shop-bought muesli before with so many wholesome and nutritious ingredients.

I live in America and I love this Muesli! Do you know where to buy it on the web, or anywhere that will ship it here? Thanks! Erica
