Pringles Scorchin Cheddar Potato Chips

Pringles Scorchin Cheddar Potato Chips are not as hot as other examples of the Scorchin Pringles line. The flavor isn't vary cheesy but cheesy and slightly hot. To really feel the heat you need to eat five or six of them.

They are not as cheesy as the normal cheese flavor, and they could be hotter. They are what they are, but only just. If you're a fan of normal Pringles I think these work, but they don't have a lot of flavor.
 

Stewart's Orange 'n Cream Soda

 Stewart's Orange 'n Cream Soda is the kind of top end soda that you buy when you drink good whiskey. I have to say it's solid but I've had soda with more sugar in it. I mean, this isn't too sweet.

All and all, this is a soda for the more refined pallet, and you are the only one who can say if you have one.

Crav'n Potato Chips Classic

 Crav'n Potato Chips Classic are less greasy than the normal chips they are supposed to be like. Your hands still need a wash after eating them, but your hands will not be as hard to wash as they are after eating normal chips. 

These are just fine. I should never eat them because I'm a big fat pig, but that's just me.

X2 Endurance Raspberry Clean Energy Drink

 X2 Endurance Raspberry Clean Energy Drink is tea. A combination of black and green tea but still tea. There is nothing wrong with it being tea but you do need to keep in mind that you are buying iced tea when you get this product. 

As for the Raspberry, you can taste it, but it's not a big thing.

Birds Eye Riced Cauliflower Roasted Garlic

 Birds Eye Riced Cauliflower Roasted Garlic tastes like hot pickles. I mean, what the heck is this about, man?! Tastes so odd that I would have never guessed what it is but then I don't like the flavor of riced cauliflower. 

Things taste nasty and I would never get them again. I like my rice to taste like rice. I like my cauliflower to taste like cauliflower. Well, no I don't, but this is not an improvement.

Mude Play Natural Sparkling Drink

 Mude Play Natural Sparkling Drink looks like piss. I mean, I've worked at places where I found piss in a cup and this looks just like it. I can't really say it tastes that great. I'm not even sure it should taste that great. I think it's more a good for you thing. 

Anyway, it's kind of like unsweetened cold tea. I think I would have liked unsweetened cold tea a bit better but this stuff did make me stop and drink slowly so win I guess.

Banquet Chicken Fingers with Mac & Cheese

 Stretching the boundaries of what should be called chicken, Banquet Chicken Fingers with Mac & Cheese is small sad and hard to make. There is a good deal more to this than drop it in the microwave and hit start. 

Then I should point out that this meal is very small. I mean, maybe it would work for a five year old. It does get points for being one serving of protein and one serving of starch. If you just add three servings of vegetables as I have you may have a good meal.  

That is assuming a good meal can have flavorless mac & cheese with chicken flavored spongy stuff. I mean, back in the day I used to get these chicken patties that everyone called "Richard's prosthetic chicken" and you had to cook the heck out of them to make them good. These things make McNuggets  taste real. 

The up side is that I got these at The Dollar Tree, and they were only like a buck twenty five. 

Mom's Touch French Fries

 Mom's Touch has thicker french fries than most fast food places, but they kind of remind me of Denny's Fries. Been some time since I went to Denny's. 

Anyway, these are french fries. Nothing that really jumps out at me about them. In think these are okay, but you go to this place for chicken not fries. 

Briette Cheese Brie Creamy Buttery

Briette Cheese Brie Creamy Buttery will not last long once you open the pack so eat the whole thing. That said, it lives up to it's name being very creamy. I would have thought this had more flavor to it than it does, but it is mostly just light and creamy for cheese.

True North Cucumber Lime Pure Energy Seltzer

 True North Cucumber Lime Pure Energy Seltzer has got to be one of the best cucumber drinks I've had from a can or bottle. That is a low bar, but this stuff is crisp and fresh. 

I don't care for artificial sweeteners and they tend to make me sick so this is a really great product for me. Where as you still need to drink this in moderation I highly recommend this for getting the party going.

Taco Bell Fire Habanero Shredded Cheese

 Taco Bell Fire Habanero Shredded Cheese could not be less hot if it tried. I think I must have gotten a bad batch, because had I not seen the label I would not have known this cheese was supposed to be hot at all. 

Now, Ive cooked with habaneros, and I can tell you it's not a good idea to scratch your eye after cutting them. They are some really hot peppers.  I didn't notice the heat in this cheese at all. 

Fail!

Little Debbie Cookies Star Crunch

I don't know what I was expecting when I got a box of Little Debbie Cookies Star Crunch but it wasn't what I got. You eat one of these and think "well,  it's okay", but it didn't pain me in the least to add more than half the box to my "to feed the homeless" pile. 

Don't go thinking I'm that great of a person. I could never eat all the food I try and I give a lot of it away. 

Anyway, these will be fine for an add to some school lunch or something. They are individually wrapped, and if you a real cookie monster you may just be able to say no to these and only eat one. 

I wouldn't get these again. 
 

Mom's Touch Mom's Original Wings

Having never been to Mon's Touch before I ambled in and ordered their 'Mom's Original Wings'. These were hot and moist with a small worry of oil drips, but my shirt stayed clean. They are not just normal fried chicken but rather had a hint of buffalo sauce to them. I noted some of the orange color of this sauce as I ate. 

Anyway, I would have these again. They were very good.

Soleil Black Cherry Sparkling Water

 Soleil Black Cherry Sparkling Water has a very loud label for being so unremarkable. I mean, really the cherry isn't so black and they flavor of cherry is hardly detectable at all. 

This has a lot of fizz to it and all that fizz coves the flavor up so that no one can really taste the cherry. If cherry is what you're looking for this will disappoint. However, it is just water and I live in California so I'll make short  work of the case.

Sheboygan Mild Italian Sausage

 Sheboygan Mild Italian Sausage will last for a long time if kept cold because it is so salty that most things can't eat it. It is also good to make cuts along the sausage to let the thing cook. 

I can taste the herbs, but the salt covers them for the most part. This is a beer drinkers sausage for sure. It would be good to have a beer to mellow out all that salt after eating a few links of this sausage. 

Now I better go eat a salad or something to get all that salt out of my system. 

Green Valley Lactose Free American Cheese

 Green Valley Lactose Free American Cheese hasn't much of a bar to clear. It just as to be as good as normal cheese and that it very much is. I would nave have know this was lactose free.

You can trust this cheese to be the right kind of cheese and not be something you didn't expect. 

Good cheese. 

Sanpellegrino Momenti Italian Pomegranate Blackcurrant Sparkling Drinks

 Sanpellegrino Momenti Italian Pomegranate Blackcurrant Sparkling Drink is in an odd place not being juice and not being water. This tart beverage is low in calories and would serve as a palate cleanser for both sweet and savory dishes. 

I would have to say this is more of a warm weather drink which makes it fit well in my native California. However, I would say it's for the more refined palate. This is for the person who truly likes to saver food. 

You would drink this between bites to wash the flavor from your mouth permitting you to experience it fresh every time you take another forkful.   

This is interesting but clearly not for everyone. 

L.O.L. Surprise Tropical Flavored Pudding by Snack Pack

 L.O.L. Surprise Tropical Flavored Pudding by Snack Pack is about as tropical flavored as any pudding that you can get. I mean that to be not at all. I guess there was some flavor to it but I would not have called it tropical. 

Putting a fancy name on flavorless pudding is not okay.

Castello Aged Gouda

Castello Aged Gouda is a hard cheese that will crumble under your knife if it is not sharp enough. It has a strong flavor that lends itself to salads and Hors D'oeuvre but don't try to slice this for your sandwich.

I also noted that large chunks broke off as I grated this but what I was cooking was not meant for fine cheese.

I don't believe I detected the nutty flavor advertised for this product, but there was a strong cheese flavor, and as it never specified what kind of nuts I guess they could be cheesy.  

If cheese with a robust flavor is your thing this is good cheese. I'm not all that much of a cheese snob, but I have to admit this appears to be a high quality product.
 

Loretta Buttermilk Protein Pancake Mixes

Loretta Buttermilk Protein Pancake Mixes can be made with just water, but you can also make it with milk and eggs. This adds to the versatility of this product so that no matter what you have on hand you can still make breakfast.  

Given that we left behind a world where people can always get eggs at the start of this year I like that versatility. These pancakes are not bad.

There has been a true love of the pancake for many years in America, but it has never been that strong in my native California. There are some parts of the country where the pancake is what one has on their birthday. 

Anyway, I think these pancakes are just fine. I don't figure they are super pancakes, but what is a super pancake? A pancake should be light and fluffy with a good texture. Most of what you think about is the syrup. 

These get the job done and for that reason I say they're a buy.
 

Trolli Sour Gummi Creations Martian Mix

Trolli Sour Gummi Creations Martian Mix are the kind of thing that encourage children to play with their food. Trolli Sour Gummis are kind of meh to start with and then you add in the poorly formed toy-ish shapes and you really have a fail. 

I don't want children to save their food as a toy, get roaches, and then eat these things two years from now and get sick because they were on the floor for a few days. 

What were they thinking?
 

Easter Carrot Tube With Orange Chocolate Lentils

 Few things will disappoint you this Easter like this Easter Carrot Tube With Orange Chocolate Lentils. Yeah, they look like M&M's but they are not M&M's. They don't taste as good and are a little smaller. I guess if you're not a real candy nut then you may never notice just how not good these are, but I noticed. 

Why we bring ourselves closer to our inevitable deaths by stuffing our faces with junk food every holiday I can't say. However you can trust me on this one, leave these alone. They just aren't worth it.

Brach's Black Jelly Bird Eggs

Brach's Black Jelly Bird Eggs are licorice jelly beans. They are not the best licorice jelly beans, but they are good jelly beans. I don't need to tell you that how much you'll like these depends on how much you like the taste of licorice but they taste okay for what they are.

Hershey's Candy Coated Milk Chocolate Eggs

 My Hershey's Candy Coated Milk Chocolate Eggs came pre-cracked. I didn't mind that too much. It makes them easier to mix into ice cream. I'm surprised I haven't died of all the candy I eat. I am so a disgusting blob.

Anyway, these are really classic, not as good as a Hershey's bar, but still a fun thing to have in your Easter basket. 

Peeps Donut Shop Coffee

Peeps Donut Shop Coffee taste better than normal Peeps but are short on coffee flavor. I have to say that I would buy these over normal Peeps were I not so fat. I wouldn't have guest they were coffee flavored but they aren't bad.
 

Peeps Blue Raspberry

 Peeps Blue Raspberry beat the pants off normal peeps but that's a low bar. I think I went more than ten years of my life without eating a single Peep before starting this blog and eating them for all of you. What am I doing with my life?

Anyway, I wouldn't go out and get more of these because I don't have much love for blue raspberry. I would rather get more coffee Peeps. Keep in mind that all my Peeps have there nose busted for some reason. 

Anyway, these are fine but I'm not regretting sending the rest of them to feed the homeless. If I were thin I'd eat more of them but I'm not.

Coca Cola Move

 Coca Cola has once again given us a reason to pay more money for their little cans and that is there new 'Move' flavor. Stuff isn't bad. It kind of tastes like their Starlight only with less of what makes it starlight. 

The body of this is in the aftertastes. You kind of need to sip this to get the full impact. 

Is it good? Well, it's okay, but I'm not going to cry when it's gone. 

Hu Grain-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

I don't know what angry spirit I offended to run across these Hu Grain-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies, but I fear its wrath. These taste like fish.

What is the point of making cookies that are just less bad for you? Eat an apple. It will taste better and be better for you.
 

Pop Tarts Frosted Apple Fritter Toaster Pastries

 If you've been reading this blog you know that I have a love hate relationship with Pop Tarts. Eating them makes me feel fat and lonely, but buying them helps me feed the homeless. 

Frosted Apple Fritter Pop Tarts are honestly a standout in this breakfast food for the lonely and overworked. As with most Pop Tarts these have too little filling, but it is rather good filling and makes these more flavorful than normal Pop Tarts. 

These are a win. You should try them. 

The Conqueror Virtual Challenge Easter Island

 If you ever wanted to walk the shores of Rapa Nui but the idea of destroying the environment is too big of a no for you there it the The Conqueror Virtual Challenge Easter Island. You can walk the same distance, get a nice souvenir, and then have five trees planted in the name of your effort. 

This is much better than going to Easter Island, because we people screwed it up and the carbon footprint to hauling your tail across the world isn't helping things. 

This Easter, why not do something for the world and get one of these. If we all got one the world would be a better place.
