I've not tried the porridge yet, might get some to try with my next order.... As far as ordering goes, I got the bumper pack to start with, and was going to order the bumper shakes and 50 toffee bars for my next one, but my sister in law bought a bumper pack that she now doesnt want, so looks like I'll be using that first..... 7 more tomato&basil soups to endure.... urghhh..... lol! I like everything else though, so may still go with the month bumper pack, just makes things easier, and slightly cheaper!
