Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Traditional Style Chicken Pot Pie

In the world of this has a long name we have "Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Traditional Style Chicken Pot Pie" which is about as average as a chicken pot pie can be. Nothing wrong with them, but Flavertown must be misnamed. 

This was just fine. I would say the crust was the best part, but it was a little bland. I would have added some pepper to give it zip. 

Flavortown is dull's vill.
 

 

Jarritos Grapefruit Soda

 Jarritos Grapefruit Soda is a bit more mild than I would have thought it would be. Jarritos brings the flavor and this is a flavor I have to say is worth trying. I’ve never been a big fan of Grapefruit soda and I wouldn’t even call this all that much grapefruit. Still, not bad.

Thomas High Protein Plain Bagels

 Thomas is a trusted name with breads and their High Protein Plain Bagels are okay. I will grant that most of the time you use bagels to hold the protein you're about to eat but these work fine for that so I guess the more protein the better. 

These will burn a little sooner than normal bagels and I think they come apart a little rough.  You can tell these aren't normal bagels but it's just not a big deal. 

All and all, not bad.  

Nature Valley Almond Sweet and Salty Nut Granola Bars

Nature Valley Almond Sweet and Salty Nut Granola Bars are nutty little bars that I can eat all day and still want more. This being my biggest problem with them is that I can eat them all day.

I like these, but I have to admit that they aren't good for me.  

Where this the 90's I would also have to toss in a few gay jokes about salty nuts. It was an odd time.

Anyway, tasty but still candy.  
 

Virgil's Black Cherry Soda

 Virgil's Black Cherry Soda showed up at my local discount market and sat in my refrigerator for way too long before I took it out and had it with vodka. This is why people say I'm an alcoholic. 

This is a premium real cane sugar soda with a smooth flavor and no bad after taste. It tastes a lot like real cherry. 

It when well with vodka and would be the kind of thing that you should drink slow and saver. This is the good stuff so don't guzzle it down.  

Lenny & Larry's The Complete Cookie Lemon Poppy Seed

I think Lenny & Larry's The Complete Cookie is a company that works with that cookie diet thing. Well their Lemon Poppy Seed cookie tastes like a diet cookie. Why would you eat at diet cookie? I don't know.

I'll grant you that this is a cookie that can be eaten without milk as it's moist and soft, but where as it has enough sugar to be a cookie it just doesn't taste much like one.  

These things are food and nothing more. I wouldn't get them again but if you wanted food that you can have and not crave this is a great food for you.  

As for me, I wouldn't get this again.  

Ocean Spray Sparkling Cranberry Mango

Ocean Spray Sparkling Cranberry Mango is light on the mango flavor. I would say that it's not as sweet as soda and has few other redeeming qualities. 

This has the quality of being that thing that exists. It doesn't have any real reason to exist and it doesn't taste like much, but it is a real thing that is part of this world. 

You can take it or leave it, but don't expect much of it. 
 

Java Chip Oreo Cookies

 Java Chip Oreo Cookies don't taste enough like coffee. Oreo Cookies aren't what they used to be. I mean, they were so much better when I was a kid. 

However, by accident I left one of these out for a day or two and it was still fresh. Preservatives have gone so far. It's amazing.  

I'm going to have to grant that I'm not big on the Oreo now days so these were about what I expected. 

I wouldn't get more, but I won't throw them out.  

Minute Made Watermelon

 Minute Made Watermelon is not as good as drinking watermelon. I have frozen watermelon and ground it into a smoothie. 

For the most part, this is sugar water. The taste is good, but it isn't good for you. 

Bon Appetit Cheese Coffee Cake

Bon Appetit Cheese Coffee Cake is lighter, not by much, and has more of a stopper than their cheese cake version. I have to admit that it makes me lament being a big fat dude who can't eat this kind of thing every day. 

This is the kind of thing that you find at a gas station or in a vending machine and you wind up missing it when it's gone. It brings me back to better economic times when I worked in old crappy guard houses surrounded by dirt and roaches.

Now days they tore down those old buildings and all that's left are the roaches.  
 

Lay's Baked Barbecue Potato Crisps

Baked Lay's are not sliced potatoes. Their shape would indicate they are made of batter than is cut and then baked. The are potato flat bread or potato crackers. 

Does that make them bad or bad for you? No.

To be dead honest the barbecue verieaty tastes fine. I get strong notes of sugar and sage. They crunch like chips and are almost as good as the real thing. 

You can't really scoop your avocado with them. Things are brittle and flimsy,  but they taste fine.  
 

Blake's Roasted Chicken

 Blake's Roasted Chicken is chicken and rice with sauce and broccoli. There needed to be more broccoli and rice. I could have done with more chicken, but with so little rice and broccoli this was a very small meal in a rather large  box. 

It should be noted that the big box mean that the food cooks faster because less food does cook faster. Still, it's too little food to be a meal.  

I will add that the chicken was on the tough side. It did look to be real enough, but still, tough.

So I ate every bit of this frozen meal, not that there was much to it, and that makes it better than average. Not good, but better than average.  

Warheads Sour Soda Peach

Warheads Sour Soda Peach is peach only in color and taste like Granny Smith Apple. This can of disappointment is often hard to find at my local Dollar Tree and I think that they should change up this flavor because it just doesn't live up to its name.

Monster Juice Khaotic Orange Citrus

Monster Juice Khaotic Orange Citrus tastes just like an orange ice-pop. I will admit that this was a little too rich for me and the flavor was something that could use a thinning  but man was this good. 

I had this with chipped ice, from a room temperature can, and it was a dream in glass. 

I'll grant that I wouldn't drink another one in short order but then you shouldn't do that with am energy drink. 

These things are killer good.
 

Saffron Road Vegetable Bibimbap

 Saffron Road Vegetable Bibimbapn is the kind of thing that is just slopped together and not mixed so that the flavor can really be inconsistent. It is a little on the spicy side. I'm not a big fan of Tofu but it has almost no flavor and will simply taste like the spicy sauce. 

This is not my cup of tea. The rice is soggy, as are the vegetables, and the whole thing just falls flat.  

It is edible, which says a lot for frozen food, but it isn't good either.  

In a world were people need food and this is food you may find this at the right price. If you do, it will keep you alive, but will life be worth living if you have to eat this? 

McDonald's Mango Pineapple Refresher

Shortly before midnight I came home from McDonald's to try this Mango Pineapple Refresher. I feel insulted that I was expected to pay almost five dollars for a medium this thing. 

There was bitter pineapple, definitely not the superior Hawaiian variety, and all most no mango to be tasted.

The worst part is those red things that get stuck in the ice and cannot be tasted unless you dig them out or wait for the thing to melt. I mean, what's the point?

Anyway, fail, not worth the money.    
 

Costco Food Court Chocolate Ice Cream

 Costco Food Court Chocolate Ice Cream is some good old soft serve. I wouldn’t call it great or memorable but as with everything Costco it’s the right deal for the price.

I mean, good stuff really but it could use a bit more pizzazz.

Krispy Kreme New York Cheesecake Filled Doughnut

Krispy Kreme New York Cheesecake Filled Doughnut would be a good deal better if there was any cheesecake filling to be tasted. Cheesecake is a bit stronger in flavor than what this is filled with and eating this just makes me wish I had real cheesecake. 

The crumble on top is just as pointless not having the flavor of cheesecake crust. I figure it would be odd to have that on top but this stuff is odd to have at all. 

This is rich like cheesecake, but hasn't got the right flavor. I wouldn't get it again. 

Fail! 
 

Krispy Kreme Cringer Claw Cookie Dough Doughnut

 Krispy Kreme Cringer Claw Cookie Dough Doughnut is a simple pastry that is colored after the He-Man character that I think was called "battle cat" so Cringer was his un-transformed name I guess.  

Anyway, this is a solid doughnut. What we have is a standard glazed with some added frosting that fleshes it out some. I don't know if there is so much flavor in the frosting but this will keep well and tastes good. 

I'm not sure what more one wants in a doughnut.  

Krispy Kreme He-Man Caramel Crunch Doughnut

Krispy Kreme He-Man Caramel Crunch Doughnut is supposed to have cheesecake flavored frosting. There is that word "flavored" again meaning not real but it's fine because this didn't taste anything like cheesecake. 

The He-Man thing that is hard for you to see is chewy and the bits on top are cookie crumbs. I don't care for that in doughnuts, because they get stale fast and really had little to the experience. 

Overall I think this is just a blob of sugar and I wouldn't really want to eat another. They just fall short of being good eating.

I'm going to call this a skip.   
 

7-Select Cinnamon Sugar Mini Donuts

7-Select Cinnamon Sugar Mini Donuts have a little more flavor than the doughnuts you normally get at gas stations. I love to have these with coffee, but they can make a mess. Less of a mess than the powdered ones because they're brown and brown doesn't show as much. 

Anyway, if you haven't tried these they are about the best of the doughnuts of their nature. To get better you need to go to a shop instead of a gas station. 

I would get these again if I were not a great fat blob.  
 

Chips Ahoy! Big Chewy Chocolatey Brownie

Chips Ahoy! Big Chewy Chocolatey Brownie is the kind of thing that makes you think brownies stink. Thin, clay like, and not very tasty these need some vanilla.

If you're a brownie fan then you shouldn't eat these because they taste synthetic and are a shadow of what a good brownies should taste like.  
 

Lay’s Brazilian-Style Garlic Sauce Potato Chips

Lay’s Brazilian-Style Garlic Sauce Potato Chips really tastes like garlic. I mean it really tastes like garlic. It will make you smell like garlic. There will be garlic on your breath until you brush your teeth with strong toothpaste. 

I can detect the creamy vibe of what I guess would be the sauce part. I've never had Brazilian-Style Garlic Sauce, so I don't know. 

To be fair, I'd skip this because it makes you stink and would be bad for nooky after the game. Unless she's into dirty men. I knew a few folks who were.
