I’ve used Nan comfort for all 3x kids. 1 with colic and another with reflux. After having constipation on mummamoo, Karicare, Aptimal and Bellamy’s… Read more

organic, Nan was the most gentle on their tummies. My reflux baby ended up needing medication as well but in terms of digestion and their poo, Nan comfort is the closest I found to breastmilk. We also tried novalac constipation but felt this doesn’t fill Bub up as much! Sharing because I feel like Nan comfort is a great formula to start on! Can go from there if it doesn’t work for you.

Great to add to morning porridge instead of milk to boost iron, and other important nutrients. It’s an easy way to get a bit more goodness in at… Read more

breakfast. I’m just a little disappointed that the omega-3 content isn’t listed, and there’s no added fibre.

Great product my daughter’s favourite drink I recommend this product

Milos new recipe has completely ruined its taste, they've clearly diluted it significantly, even upping the ratio to 50/50 and it still barely tastes like anything, I will never buy it again because it's simply not milo anymore

Chocolate at it’s best – When growing up in a small country town my parents owned a mixed business shop and stocked a large range of confectionery including chocolates. I was… Read more

able to “sample” all of these and my favourites were the Nestle chocolate blocks, especially the milk chocolate and the Club dark chocolate and peppermint cream. In my adult years I have continued to enjoy them until fairly recently when, unfortunately, they don’t seem to be available any more.

I am sick and tired of being ripped off on a constant basis. So many times i have advised them about their quality control. I keep getting packs with… Read more

1 or 2 short lozenges. When there is only 10 of them and you end up with just a chip of one or even half of one. Why doesn't their machinery and sensors pick up these part lozenges? This week i had a pack with 3 lozenges in the same pack that were about 1/4 to 1/3 size. That means i only got 7 lozenges and a few chips out of 10. When we used to pay only $2 for a pack of 3 well it didn't hurt the wallet as much as it does now. Each shopping trip i pick up 4 packs of 3 that is 2 x Anticol and 2 x Butter Menthol for a total of about $28 ($6.98 per pack) It works out close to 25cents a lozenge and when you end up missing 10 in total from these packs each time that can be $2.50 each week we get them... Doesn't sound like much but it adds up... That can be as much as $130 a year. Some times its just screwed up paper in place of a lozenge. The two below came out in the last 5 lozenges of a pack and there was also one that was the third one in. Didn't have that one cause i was out at the time and i tossed the chip bit away. So to my surprise another two in the same pack. I am mising around 10-15% of my lozenges each time i buy the things. How many other people out there are finding the same thing...missing lozenges or part lozenges? Let's stand up and let them know.

Might be good for some but my baby doesn't like it – This formula might be good for some but my baby doesn't like it. I have tried on many occasions but my bub just wont drink it. I have tasted it… Read more

myself and it is not very pleasant. The formula is easy to prepare and it is good that it comes in a smaller size tin.

Tastes like corporate greed now. Nothing but sugar. Will not be buying Nestle nor Cadbury anymore

Taste ok not as good as the original chicos,a shame Allen's are so weak a company that they had to cheapen the ingredients and the name.

Nestle is clearly gaslighting Australians with their multiple responses concerning their destruction of Quality Street chocolates. Christmas 2025 was… Read more

dealt a blow when Quality Street chocolates were no where to be seen, especially by me who was looking to buy a fully fixed product after the 2024 debacle that I thought Nestle’s own replies was keen to repair and make good. Instead, Nestle was just leading us on with classic corporate obfuscation and nothing more.

Having bought many Quality Street over the years, 2024’s new box packaging contained the worst manufacturing debacle ever cast upon an unsuspecting public. Whilst the cardboard design was clever and more sustainable for our planet, what was discovered inside was awful. Some also say stale and I also agree. Why did Nestle ignore the facts? The fondant orange and strawberry chocolates were rock hard (see picture, they were rock hard and still are today). Did the outer plastic box film allow air transfer over the months in storage? Did anyone advise the new wrappers were problematic on so many levels, least being monotone? As far as I could tell, Nestle sold a product that was actually defective! Was it knowingly defective? I say yes, it must have been because if, like us, any of their employees actually opened a box and tried eating one, they would have reported a clear defect. They were never made that way in the past.

What about the wrappers? Sustainability and recyclability doesn’t mean you produce awful looking and confusing dull colours with poor assortments. Plenty of dull yellowy orange and not a lot else. Believe it or not, the pictured wrappers represent 7 different types (10 if you include the orange, strawberry and fudge mixed ups in wrong wrappings). Nothing in the box looked special. Having bought 10 boxes, many of the boxes contained “chocolates” with incorrect wrappers applied, something I noted across multiple batch numbers.

Was Australia treated as a Christmas 2024 dumping ground for awful Quality Street batches with so many defects? I think so.

What about the chocolate and taste? Was it even chocolate any more? Why should we even think this? Because the so called chocolate felt and tasted nothing like real chocolate, either in the coatings, the fuller chocolate ones, such as the Orange Chocolate Crunch and Green Triangle, as well as legal questions I mention below. Seemed like a similar taste of cheap artificially created chocolate. Bite into the new dull green wrapped Milk Choc Block or sucking it in a warm mouth, it took a long time to break it down and experience the bad taste and awful texture. But on Nestle’s own website, The Ultimate Guide to Quality Street Flavours, it states, “rich, indulgent and effortlessly smooth every time.”

If I want a box of fake artificial chocolate confectionary, I’ll make a box of “chocolate” crackles using copha and cocoa which is not actually chocolate either. Like I said, I don’t think anyone at Nestle’s tried any of the new cardboard packaged Quality Street chocolates, especially the Milk Choc Block, imported into Australia especially for Christmas 2024. I think Nestle is also being sneaky calling it a Choc Bloc because it isn’t actually legally chocolate, is it Nestle? Does your new packaging say Quality Street chocolates like the old packaging? Is it a con job these days for us older customers when you use of the word “confectionery”?

Nestle have trashed a once very proud UK product. Nestle need to go back to basics and rediscover the original Quality Street chocolate recipes, including long forgotten about flavours. Why couldn’t they properly introduce some new refreshing ones. That’s what always set Quality Street apart from the drab other brands with same same chocolate stodgy tastes claiming to be assortments and favourites. Quality Street always had real fresh options and pops of taste reliefs and surprises away from boring repeat fudges and caramels.

I find it hard to believe anything else with Nestle on it Is trustworthy or worth purchasing any more after experiencing their Quality Street failures and their corporate responses here. No fixes at all and no more product either for 2026. When you trash a brand bought by Australians for almost 100 years, you actually don’t just trash one product line, you teach the customer why they need to avoid Nestle altogether.

To hold Nestle to account, I have created a market on Manifold Markets (https://manifold.markets/NJJJ/will-nestle-fix-their-quality-stree ) so issues like this with comments can actually be turned into direct graphical display and action internationally whereby the market gives Nestle until Christmas 2026 to fix and make good on their Quality Street product for Australians.

It is nothing like a kitkat it is a LOT like coffee.

Love love LOVE Minties. Yep, they’re sweet. Yep, they’re soft. Yep, they’re not great for your teeth. But man, they are good. Good.

Black in cerelac – Hello I wanted to know what are these tiny little black particles in the cerelac. I’m a little worried to continue feeding my daughter this.

Didn’t work for us – Was given a script for this after Paediatrician suspected our 4 week old son had milk intolerance due to constipation on normal formula. Our son… Read more

developed severe reflux on alfare and vomited up clear liquid that smelt like vinegar. The formula is very runny so it may be that it comes up more easily than normal formula which is thicker?He was also up for several hours each morning crying with abdominal discomfort which was a new symptom on the alfare. Poos also very runny and extremely smelly. As a result we discontinued use of the formula upon advice from our paediatrician. Having said all this, he had no trouble drinking the formula despite its awful smell. No trouble mixing the formula either it dissolved well.

Very different from what I remember. Used to be a nice soft mint flavoured Pattie with chocolate coating but now it is more of a solid and can just… Read more

taste the mint slab of sugar syrup. First ingredient is sugar followed by glucose syrup and vegetable fat and emulsifiers. This is nothing more than a clump of sugar and fats with a hint of mint and so called chocolate. They can't even tell you the Cocoa percentages in the so called chocolate coating. This has become a victim of corporate greed and cost cutting but then again, it is Nestle and it's on record the boss wants to take away water as a basic human right, not to mention the other destructive practices they have but I digress, Nestle is nothing more than a company bent on cost cutting and greed with little regard to actual quality of product. It's a shame really and Nestle no longer has a place in my house and that goes for all their supposed quality products.

Fantastic – Fantastic, amazing these icecream tubs are awesome, and very suitable if you are calorie counting or even diabetic. Highly recommend. Problem is stopping at one they are delicious.

Really loved the bar. It was just super thin, and wasn't much chocolate. It tastes like a milk power which really makes it have a little flavor.… Read more

Either way it was NOT oily like other reviews. But its a 4 out of 10 for me. maybe make it a little bigger and add more flavor!! But anyway its kinda addicting :d

very yummy – I love milo bars very healthy they taste so good I eat them when training every day I have 100 hundred of them in my house I have them in my car too… Read more

there is nothing wrong with them i am not a fat person i am very muscular and strong my son loves them too every one who hates them damn you all

If I could a minus star I would snakes alive. I really hate it when you lolly makers change flavours that have been a lifetime favourite. Please bring the old flavours back. If you must have new flavours keep them separate in another packet

Very delsihopio sfoood – This is the best searal imy tougne has touched. The white tastes delishis and i wount have it for breakfast lunch and tea if my mother let me. I think they should remove the blaskc onjes ientrily becuase they tates bad ( not rasist)

Thank you Allens – My wife bought me a bag today before they disappear, I tried one & it was soft, I could sqeeze them in my fingers, they have also made the font very… Read more

small so it is now difficult to read. You have wrecked a bit of history but you have also made it easy for me to let go, thanks again

The best chocolate Lunch Snack you can get – Despite the Space Food Sticks, the biscuits and the chocolate are the best to keep your day going, the biscuits are what you need to dip into the chocolate, the leftovers you can eat/lick from the package! 10/10 I always order this.

What did you do to smarties…. Omg yuk. Got them for the first time in years, spat them out immediately. They’re disgusting! Faded in colour and absolutely inedible.

What I can taste is cheap, cheap, cheap No Coco Just cheap Oil Very synthetic tasting Don’t bother It’s not the melt in mouth experience I once experienced when I first tasted

My Grandson (really my Daughter in law) purchased a $6.50 Allen’s promotional Christmas box from Myer at Macquarie Centre Sydney to give me a special… Read more

gift as it had my name on it. They also purchased 4 others with names to suit. I just opened mine and have never been more disappointed! I could not believe that it contained 6 small red frogs, 6 assorted jellies and two bite size chocolates. If the entire contents was 0.30c I would be surprised! $6.50 you have to be joking how dare you insult people’s intelligence and use Christmas as an excuse to extort your customers. Shame on you and your promotional team, you should be ashamed of yourselves. I will never (and I hope) anyone who reads this never buy another Allens product.

“Dropper” major failure!!! – “Dropper” IS THE WORST! When you are trying to breastfeed a colic baby and already stressed and emotional the very last thing you need is a product… Read more

that actually makes you and your babies time harder and more stressful! Even placing the drops on a spoon and giving them that way is impossible due to the flow being inconsistent! You don’t even get the chance to measure five drops because they all pour out like a tap. Major design flaw that is just screaming to be changed! If you’re going to design and produce a product to make babies and parents’ lives easier then do just that! Atrocious.

Can't live without these! – I've had tonsilitis for the past 9 days. I am living on these. They have soothed my throat not only do i have my voice coming back. Im able to eat solids lol. These are so handy! I have packets stashed all around the house & in all my hand bags

Disappointed – Very disappointed that Allan’s freckles are now so very dull in colour and extremely oddly uneven in shape. They use to be bright and perfectly round great for cake decorating but now they cannot be used!
