</div><div style="text-align: center;">I give them 9 / 10</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The ginger is very strong, so it's good if you like strong flavours.</div><div style="text-align: center;">The chocolate is strong too, as it's Belgian dark chocolate.<br />
<br />
<div>I really enjoyed them, but the flavour was a bit too strong for my 10-year-old brother.</div><div></div></div><div style="text-align: center;">They are gluten, wheat, dairy and egg free and is suitable for vegans and coeliacs.<br />
<br />
If you try/have tried them tell me what you think!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I had my biopsy and endoscopy two weeks ago. It wasn't the nicest of experiences, if I'm honest. Though I was very very very dehydrated, had low blood sugar and mixed with a general anesthetic... not fun X____X</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Hahaha. Although I did get <strike>an awesome hat</strike> a sick bucket thing. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlDbvfbFqrl5177hzZh3MAhDJi883YLtSYBnAeEo7gvNRRu3GcsU3Ew7xR97IBKK0kHQ-6AZ3y6fcR6tmK-vsZ8IDkeMNjmbjGdlaOXmKuoNdZXwn8ecZYuu8ao-iGbF50Zyp2QJYkdjJH/s1600/Picture0001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlDbvfbFqrl5177hzZh3MAhDJi883YLtSYBnAeEo7gvNRRu3GcsU3Ew7xR97IBKK0kHQ-6AZ3y6fcR6tmK-vsZ8IDkeMNjmbjGdlaOXmKuoNdZXwn8ecZYuu8ao-iGbF50Zyp2QJYkdjJH/s320/Picture0001.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Well, anyway, that was several <i>months </i>after my initial diagnosis by blood test. >n<</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">But here we are, on the 14th of November and we get a letter, confirming my diagnosis.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I am really relieved. My brother was diagnosed quite a while before me and I always felt really bad about eating gluten.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So, tonight is my last night <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><u><b>ever</b></u> </span>of eating gluten. And...</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I don't really mind. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">You'll see more of me soon. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Bye bye for now,</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
