Ghost Energy Organic Original

 

Ghost Energy Organic Original kind of tastes like zero calorie lemonade. I wouldn’t call it good but I wouldn’t call it offensive. It’s just, well, a low level energy drink with the right vitamins for a normal person.

Harder energy drinking people should really lave this be as it boasts too little in the way of kick. It will get the job done but I would need a truck load of them to keep me up at night.

Fiber One Strawberry and Cream Doughnuts

 Fiber One is a mixed bag when it comes to pastries. Most of what they sell is good but you end up eating the whole box. These Strawberry and Cream Doughnuts

Tasted nothing like strawberries and cream, but they were doughnuts for sure.

McDonald's McSpicy

 I knew a man who worked at McDonald’s back when they had the Big and Spicy and he would say “We call it the ‘well its spicy’”. I can say that there is a flavor of spice with the McSpicy, but as one would expect there isn’t much of it.

I don’t mind the McSpicy but I almost never get them, because I would rather have something else.

Still, if you’re a clown addict then you should try these, because they do make you want to eat more of them.

Ryse Energy Drink Smarties Original

Ryse Energy Drink Smarties Original tastes great for being a zero calorie beverage. I mean, I normally don't much care for zero calorie drinks but this one is good enough to be something I would buy again. 

As for how well it works, it gets the job done and I didn't crash. Stuff is good.

Brownie Brittle Pumpkin Spice Blondie


 Blondie Pumpkin Spice Brownie Brittle tastes nothing like pumpkin spice. These are crunchy thin wafers that will go well with coffee or milk but they don't have a spice to them. 

These were fine but they weren't great.

La Brea Bakery Ancient Grain Baguette


 La Brea Bakery Ancient Grain Baguette is a hearty bread that is good enough on it's own but also great with garlic butter. 

I will grant that once you cook the whole bag you have a little too much bread for one person. However you can cut them up as dinner rolls.

If you want soft this is not for you but if you like chewy these are a good bread to add to your dinner party.

Tony's Chocolonely Milk Hazelnut

 Tony's Chocolonely Milk Hazelnut is best at room temperature. Well, unless you live in California where room temperature can be a hundred and ten in which case you have slime. 

If you have these in an air conditioned room they are really good, could be a little more nutty, but very good none the less. 

Add to this that people are making these out of cruelty free chocolate and you got a win for the world even if I'm still the blob and shouldn't eat these.

Devour Cordon bleu Mac & Cheese with Chicken

Devour Cordon bleu Mac & Cheese with Chicken looks little like what you see on the box but it tasted okay. It was a little small, but what do you expect? It was cheap, and most folks think that cheap is good enough. 

It isn't bad, many of the things I try aren't bad, but it wasn't great.

Jelly Belly Sunkist Lime Jelly Beans

Jelly Belly Sunkist Lime Jelly Beans taste like lime. I mean, do I like lime candy? I guess I like it better with lemon. Other than the fact that this reminds me of cleaning solution this is okay. I wouldn't eat more of them but they are okay.

Pop Secret Homestyle Butter


 Pop Secret Homestyle Butter popcorn has less butter then Movie Theater Butter or Extra Butter. I would say that this is less butter than most popcorn. 

With spooky season around the corner and you likely to see a few horror movies at home, this is a great option to not get your hands all buttery. 

Stuff is good enough, I mean, how often do you run into bad popcorn?

Banquet Fish Sticks with Mac & Cheese and Pudding


 You look at the box of these Banquet Fish Sticks with Mac & Cheese and Pudding and think that those are normal sized fish sticks all be it low in quality. You eat them and find out that they are small and sad little limp noodles and you can eat them but feel bad about yourself for doing so. 

In a world where you're a big fat dude on the internet eating just to keep working and don't have time to cook these may feel like an option. If they are have them with a multivitamin, because they are vary poorly rounded meals.  

On the one hand, if I had more I would eat them so that I can get back to my work. On the other hand, these are so bad for me that I think you could kill me if you gave me enough of them.

Hostess Chocolate Creamy Caramel Meltamors


 Hostess Chocolate Creamy Caramel Meltamors should be microwaved for best taste. Once hot they are still dry. they aren't that great and leave one wanting. 

These are not as good as the bunt cakes which have less to drip all over you.

Olina's Bakehouse Simply Seed Crackers Original

Olina's Bakehouse Simply Seed Crackers Original are odd little things. I mean, seeds stuck together and then they come apart as you eat them. I figure you can't get much calories out of them because most of the seeds will pass through your gut. 

These will not be better than Wheat Thins but they have to be better for you. You should try them just because they're so odd.

Botticelli Foods Llc: Rossa Alfredo Sauce

 Botticelli Foods Llc: Rossa Alfredo Sauce is a mix of the cheese sauce and the tomato sauce that you normally get to make a rose sauce. It's a little on the thin side but it is different. 

I wouldn't say this is life changing but it's worth getting if you eat pasta all the time and need a change. I'm always looking for a new kind of sauce for this blog so I wouldn't get this again, but I wouldn't mind trying other versions of this.

The Father's Table Strawberry Swirl Cheesecake

The Father's Table Strawberry Swirl Cheesecake is the one flavored cheesecake that honestly tastes like what it is named. I'm not a big fan of this flavor. It's the last one I eat out of the pack, but if it's your thing this is a good thing to have. 

Goes better with wine then coffee, but I'm not big on wine.

Glico Banana Cream Pocky


 Glico Banana Cream Pocky was on sale so I got some and I still don't get pocky. What us the point of these little cookie sticks without enough flavor in what they are dipped in? Do they take longer to eat?

I've had pocky with a lot more kick than these and I would say that was better but these are find. They went well with a good cup of black coffee.

Burger King Crispy Onion Whopper

The Burger King Crispy Onion Whopper is the kind of thing one should eat over a salad because those crispy onions fall out and get everywhere. May as well get them on something worth eating.

This comes with mayonnaise, pickles, and a sweet BBQ sauce that covers the flavor of everything else.

I can’t say I didn’t like this but I can say that it got everywhere and I didn’t care for that part of it. It was an okay burger but not better that a normal Whopper if you ask me.


 

Hostess Donettes Honey Bun

Hostess Donettes Honey Bun were on sale at my local discount store and I shouldn't have got them because I'm way too fat. 

The Honey Bun is a pastry with a tasty outside and a disappointing inside but it had a lot of outside to inside so it is generally good.  Where it not so sticky it would be really good. 

Then they made these and said "lets make more of the good outside and less inside with less sticky."  They are basically glazed doughnuts.

These are good, get your hands a little sticky, and go great with coffee. I would get more if I didn't look like the blob.

Jack in the Box Spicy Chicken Strips 2025

It turns out that it isn’t just the McDonld’s McRib that comes back every year but also the Jack in the Box Spicy Chicken Strips. I tried them back in 2024 and now I can say the 2025 addition is just as bad.

To be fair, these bring the heat just as well as any fast food can. The problem is that they aren’t as crisp as normal chicken strips and the breading comes off as thicker and more overpowering. I would have to guess that they add the spice after cooking and that kills the crisp.

If they did add the spice first it would likely contaminate the oil and make everything spicy.

In any case, the only reason you would want to go to jack would be to get food at a low cost but these, well, they disappoint.


 

Post Fruity Pebbles Candy Bar

Post Fruity Pebbles Candy Bar is a thing. If you have some kind of love for Fruity Pebbles then you make like this bar. For me it just isn't all that interesting.

I got this a Dollar Tree and that generally indicates what kind of food it is, and this is exactly what I expect to find on the discount rack.  

This is crap and it's bad for you.

Burger King Cini Minis

I have never had Burger King Cini Minis before but I can tell you they are crusty little things that are too heavy but have a solid flavor. If they weren’t so dry I would have liked them better.

The stuff that they come with looks gross and is way too thin and drippy to be good.

I would have to rank these a fail, not a big fail, but a fail none the less.
