Stuft Pizza Traditional Stuft Sticks

Stuft Pizza's "Traditional Stuft Sticks" are basically a small pizza without sauce. There is very little to this, but it is good. The only real complain is that this is bland, but it comes with dipping sauce so dip away and enjoy.  Or you can order something with more imagination. Do what you want. I'm an internet reviewer not a cop.

Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Triple Decker Cheeseburger


"Merica," cries my "Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Triple Decker Cheeseburger" as I try to fit it in my mouth. "Merica," it cries as I get it all over my face. "Merica," it cries as I try to keep it down as I walk the fair grounds.

Even when you look at the advertising they didn't bother to cook the meat for you ask yourself why anyone would eat this monstrosity.  

The sad thing is that I think this could have been very good it they had cooked it right and melted the cheese. Still messy, mind you, but good. Eat only if you have a restroom near to clean yourself up.

Alpha Wolf Passionfuit Pineapple

My Alpha Wolf Passionfuit Pineapple is passed it's best by date which should explain the urinal air like smell and flavor of this drink. On the up side I have never tasted a drink that so perfectly describes the feeling of standing in an old gas station restroom.

Blue Sky Soda Cane Sugar Cola

Blue Sky Soda Cane Sugar Cola has no caffeine! Why would you drink cola with no caffeine? 

I'll admit this is better than Shasta Cola but not as good as name brand sodas. If you like trying new things then this will work for you, but it will never replace RC.

Log Cabin Syrup

"No high fructose corn syrup" says the label of this bottle of Log Cabin Corn Syrup crud that I got at my local Costco. This bland sugar water is hardly worth putting on my French toast.

This is thin like real maple but bland and flavorless.

Jed's Hard Back Cherry Cream

What is it with cream soda? What makes it cream. I don't see any cream. This stuff is burgundy. Jed's Hard Black Cherry Cream is the right color for black cherry but the wrong taste for good drinking. 

As a soda this falls flat and as a wine cooler or hard drink it also falls flat. There are a good deal of better Jed's than these to drink. In fact, I think this is my least liked Jed's so far.

Blue Sky Seltzer Natural Lime

Blue Sky Seltzer Natural Lime can use some more lime. I grant that seltzer is not supposed to have a strong flavor but you're just not drinking this right without adding a lime wedge.

Olive Garden Dolcini Chocolate

Olive Garden Dolcini Chocolate is one of those things that people complain about with Olive Garden. It is just too bland to be a reasonable dessert.

Olive Garden Shrimp Scampi

So, when I read the menu it said that Olive Garden Shrimp Scampi was tossed with asparagus, tomatoes, and angel hair pasta. There are may be two whole spears of asparagus in this which is not enough to really mention. 

This is more pasta than it should be for the vegetables, but the shrimp is shrimp. It has that much going for it.

Olive Garden Salad

As you can see, Olive Garden Salad is served in a bowl way to big for itself to give it more confidence. As salads go this one is good enough, but I sat at a table with two people who rarely eat salad and we ate at least two bowls full.

I'll grant you that munching on this is a good thing but keep in mind that this salad is all iceberg and no dark greens. It really isn't that great for you. I would give it more points if it came with kale or spinach.

Olive Garden Pick Three Appetizer

 Olive Garden Pick Three Appetizer is one of those things I can't stand. You get less than you would if you just ordered an appetizer and fewer people can get the whole experience. Order this if you can't commit.

Olive Garden Mixed Berry Sparkling Water

Olive Garden Mixed Berry Sparkling Water is an oddly unsweetened beverage that infused the flavors of all kinds of stuff that will fail to infuse for any number of reasons. Those leaves need to be in the water longer. The blueberries won't infuse unless they get cut and I don't even know what that red stuff is at the bottom.  

In the world of epic fails I have to say this is high on the list. I should have just ordered water which would have been better for me and would have cost less. 

You could say that this has antioxidants but why not just eat a salad? you could say it has nutrients not found in other foods you buy, but not in large enough amounts to make a difference. 

All in all, this just looks pretty.

Venom Energy Black Cherry Kiwi

Venom Energy Black Cherry Kiwi is that drink that no one wants to pick in the cooler until it's the only thing left. Then you drink it and say, well, it's not that bad. 

I really think this is a monster in a different can and most Venom flavors are named after a snake. These on the other hand just have the flavor name and that tells us that someone goofed or ran out of ideas. 

So there you have it, works like a monster, tastes like you would expect.  

C2O Pure Coconut Water

C2O Pure Coconut Water is good coconut water. I mean that, sweet but not too sweet, it has just the right amount of flavor. Great stuff. 

Now if only I can figure out that dumb name.

The Habit Burger Grill Sweet Potato Fries

The Habit Burger Grill Sweet Potato Fries are a fresh take on an old classic. I have to say that if you haven't had sweet potato fries you need to try them and normally you can only get them at a more expensive restaurant than 'The Habit'. 

If I didn't need to keep writing reviews I'd make a habit out of these.

The Habit Burger Grill BBQ Bacon Charburger

The Habit Burger Grill BBQ Bacon Charburger is okay. Not great, mind, but okay. I found this kind of dry to be honest, but it was a burger worth eating.

Margaritaville Premium Jamaican Dark Rum

As Rum goes I know nothing about rum. Margaritaville Premium Jamaican Dark Rum is the second rum I've tried in my life and I don't think much over it as a shot. I take vodka over rum as this rum as a strong but unpleasant flavor.

Long story short, have this with something because it's hard to drink in it's own.

Van de Kamp's Parmesan & Roasted Garlic Tilapia

Van de Kamp's Parmesan & Roasted Garlic Tilapia is a good bit of fish if you can get passed the lack of Roasted Garlic or Parmesan. It's just breaded fish really and you'll need to add your own flavor. I originally got this because it looked kind of on the healthy side and now I get it because it's cheep.

This makes a great wrap if you cook it right and is really worth eating. Just don't expect it to taste like Parmesan & Roasted Garlic.

California Grill Fish and Chips

California Grill Fish and Chips needs more fish to go along with those chips. I mean, that is not a lot of fish. Other than that it's okay.

California Grill Quesadillas

California Grill's Quesadillas are made by white people. I'm not saying that just because someone is white, like me, that they can't make a good quesadilla, but these miss the queso part. I like queso in my quesadilla. 

After that, well, let me just say that there are better things on the menu than this appetizer.

Belching Beaver Brewery Peanut Butter Milk Stout

Belching Beaver Brewery Peanut Butter Milk Stout is approved by my cat. He didn't drink any but he wanted to. 

In any case, this is a slightly bitter brew with a smooth finish and a thick head. I like it. I've gone and gotten more after this pack. Great stuff.

Coast Long Beans

Do you have any idea how hard it is to get long beans in California? I love these things but they don't last long so get as many as you're going to eat in three days.

Past that, they are vary long, crisp, and go with everything.

Kraft Stove Top Stuffing Mix Traditional Sage

Kraft Stove Top Stuffing Mix Traditional Sage tastes nothing like sage. It says it in the name, but it just tastes like bread crumbs.

If you're going to fail at the one thing you set out to be what are you? ... an actor!

Islands Ice Cream Sundae

Islands Ice Cream Sundae is as basic as you get in the sundae department. I think the chocolate would have been better if added after the other toppings.

Islands Maverick

Islands Maverick makes no mention on the menu of that spaghetti stack of onions. I mean, you read the menu and order this and get something that looks nothing like what you ordered. 

Well, look at that burger, it's on the dry side.

Islands Cheddar Fries

Islands Cheddar Fries normally come with scallion onions but my brother ordered it without them because I can't eat raw onions. 

In any case, if you're going to order this order it for more than two people because it's a full meal. After that it's on the bland side and the cheese is melted but not scorched so it's not something all that interesting. 

Good for a group, bad for your figure, and it will get you oily.

Islands Ice Tea

Islands Ice Tea is the most photogenic tea I've ever had. I mean, look at that. I just took the picture. After that, tastes like tea.

Riley's Brewing Company Hand Crafted Root Beer

Riley's Brewing Company Hand Crafted Root Beer is a mix of flavors that you recognize. I mean, stuff like vanilla and Honey, real food things go into Riley's complex flavor and real taste.

This is very close to the best root beer I've ever had and the one I drank was out of date. Wish I could taste it fresh.

M & M's Caramel

M & M's Caramel are a flavor I haven't tried before, and I'd say they work poorly chilled. I do like them, but they need to be room temperature. The caramel get's hard if you put it in the fridge. 

Oh, yeah, eat too many and you look like me.

Arizona Soda Shaq Blueberry Cream Soda

Flat, disgusting, and not even blue Arizona Soda Shaq Blueberry Cream Soda is the final word in bad soda. At least this one doesn't have Shaq's tongue all over it like some other flavors. 

I don't know what they were going for with this, but I can tell  you not to drink any of this stuff.
