Genki Forest Alienergy Energy Shot Blackberry & Yerba Mate Flavor

I'm not sure you can still get Genki Forest Alienergy Energy Shots but the Blackberry & Yerba Mate isn't much to write home about. I mean, it tastes okay and kind of works but if they did stop making it I can see why. 

This appears to be a Korean product and it's popularity may be cultural rather than flavor based. It doesn't have much of a kick to it but then maybe the stuff I got was just old.

Tuong Ot Sriracha Extra Spicy Ramen

Tuong Ot Sriracha Extra Spicy Ramen was hot. It was hot enough so that I needed to have water on hand, and it cleared my nostrils and I had to whipe my nose. As I had a five pack of these I found I like it better with more water than the pack recommends but you can see I added a good amount of vegetables. 

I'm not a spice fan so I never eat these kinds of food save for this blog. If you're a spice hound you may need to have some hot sauce on hand to perk this up, but for me it was very spicy. 

Honestly, at the right price I would get this again but I would rather have a tame flavor.

Watermelon Flavor Extra Strength 5-hour ENERGY Drink

Watermelon Flavor Extra Strength 5-hour Energy Drink tastes okay. It isn't great and it works well but the vitamins in this drink are just as crazy as the world we live in. I don't think this stuff is safe, but I didn't read the label before buying. 

If it's crunch time or if it's the first day of your week and you work nights this stuff may just be what you need to get the ball rolling. Drink in moderation because too much of anything will hurt you in the end.

Long Chips Honey & BBQ

I believe the way to eat these Long Chips is curve down if you want the most flavor out of them. If you want the more bland experience then curb up is better. 

The Honey BBQ flavor is more honey than BBQ but the chips are still so easy to eat and pack that I can't figure why they don't have more of them in the US. I mean, I believe these are a UK thing but you can order them. 

If I had known how good they were I would have gotten more. Still, this flavor doesn't stand out.

Crav'n Double Stuffed Candy Cane Sandwich Cookies

 Are you sure your name isn’t long enough ‘Crav'n Flavor Double Stuffed Chocolate Candy Cane with Peppermint Creme Sandwich Cookies’? I mean, can you add a few more words to make my job harder? Add to there very long name the fact that they are just okay cookies and you have a product I wish I hadn’t gotten for seventy five percent off in last year’s discount bin.

The world is full of discount Oreo cookies, and these are a lesser product. The may be miserable with coffee but they could be fine with milk I guess. Maybe you should buy them to express some willpower. For me, these are just going to get stale and be forgotten.

Long Chips Sour Cream & Onion


 Long Chips are made from mashed potatoes and are thinner and lighter than normal crisps. I do believe they would be crisps and not true chips as in America a chip is a sliced potato that is cooked where these are a mash. They are something like Pringles but lighter and more potato. 

I can't say much for them as they have little flavor. I wouldn't call them good or bad but just kind of there. They are something to try, they pack well, and you get a lot of them in that little pack. This would be good for distance hiking.  

I can detect no Sour Cream or Onion, but this is kind of English food which tends to be bland.

Limited Edition Pop Tarts Lemon Groove Pink Lemonade Flavor

Pop Tarts Lemon Groove Pink Lemonade remind me of the summer and the surf. Why they would do that I don't know because I never drank Pink Lemonade at the beach and I don't smoke pot. 

They taste okay, definitely some lemon flavor in there but, well, I don't think this is the best combination. The poorly printed graphics don't help.  

I'll be happy to pass these along to the homeless and they happy to eat them, but I won't miss them when they're gone.

Colombina Tiger Pops Valentine Candy Swirled Heart Love Lollipops Strawberry & Cream Flavor

Colombina Tiger Pops Valentine Candy Swirled Heart Love Lollipops Strawberry & Cream Flavor ave a really really long name. Why can't you call them something like Colombina Heart Pops? Anyway, these are kind of generic.

They taste like you would expect strawberry lollipops to taste like. These are a solid fined for children, but not a great idea for your office staff.

Pop-Tarts Eggo Frosted Maple Flavor


 Other than the pattern on some of the tarts Pop-Tarts Eggo Frosted Maple Flavor have nothing to do with Eggos. 

Eggo Toaster Waffles are delicious. I don't' know why, and I don't care, but they have always been a welcome part of my day. Haven't had one in years, but I will never forget them.

These, are, well, not bad. Not bad at all. In fact, for Pop-Tarts they are top of the line. I don't know why more people don't buy them. Sad as it is to be eating Pop-Tarts in the first place these are cleaner than waffles with stuff on them. 

I have eaten a number of dry waffles but I'm a big fat dude, and I'm sure none of you do that right?

Anyway, for Pop-Tarts these really kick tail.

Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate Flavor


 Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate Flavor is rather smooth and rich if you use the right amount of water. It's a soothing hot chocolate perfect for the cold days ahead. 

That is to say, if global warming doesn't kill us all first.

Yoplait Starburst Strawberry Flavor

Yoplait Starburst Strawberry tastes just like Starburst. I mean, I haven't had a starburst in a long time, but this tasted like Starburst Strawberry. If you like Starburst this is a must buy for you. I have never known anyone who loves Starburst that much, but in this world this just makes sense.

Sapporo Ichiban Japanese Style Noodles Soy Sauce Flavor Ramen Bowl


 Sapporo Ichiban Japanese Style Noodles are on the higher end side of Ramen. This Soy Sauce Ramen Bowl is so fancy you can't microwave it. You need to use hot water to make this work.

I will admit this is better than most of the Ramen I've had, but there are places where hot water is hard to come by, and so these would be hard to make. I guess you could always heat water in the microwave, but then you need an extra cup. 

Then again, that's a good amount of vegetables for ramen.

Cheetos Mac'N Cheese, Bold & Cheesy Flavor


 It's not easy being cheesy and Cheetos Mac'N Cheese, Bold & Cheesy Flavor is a good example of that truth. It looks like the radio active bee pollenesk substance you find on Cheetos but just doesn't remind me of the snack. 

The idea is more fun than the product which tastes different from other examples of the same dish but just isn't more cheesy. 

Still, not bad, just not as good as Kraft.

Pleasant Prairie Pork Loin Riblets Mesquite BBQ Flavor


 Pleasant Prairie Pork Loin Riblets Mesquite BBQ Flavor taste nothing like mesquite or BBQ for that matter. I didn't expect much for a dollar. I got these at Dollar Tree.

I have to admit for the price these are some good ribs. I mean, the bones come out fine, and the meat is tender. If I see any more of these I'm likely to buy them. I can't figure why they are this inexpensive, but they hit the spot.

Panda Signature Ramen Noodle Soup Lime Shrimp Flavor


 Panda Signature Ramen Noodle Soup Lime Shrimp Flavor hasn't much in the way of lime or shrimp. It tastes like ramen, for sure, but the lime and shrimp parts are missing. Just to be sure I didn't get a bad one I tried this three times. The lime and shrimp flavor is missing.

Ocean Spray Sparkling Cranberry Raspberry Flavor


 Ocean Spray Sparkling Cranberry Raspberry Flavor isn't that great of a combination. I have to admit that it's a little two tart for me. I guess you could add some sugary stuff to make it work but then why buy it at all? 

Half the sugar of soda, not as good as water. Fail.

Gamesa Clasicas Florentinas Milk Caramel Flavor


 Gamesa Clasicas Florentinas Milk Caramel Flavor look like little pies. They are dry for what they are and should be eaten with coffee or milk. They also kind of get stuck in your teeth, but not to badly.  

If you want to feel like a giant dropping pies like cookies these are for you. To me I can take them or leave them.

Bugles Hot Buffalo Flavor

 

Bugles Hot Buffalo Flavor at first bite remind you of good bugles. The flavor then starts to sink in, and you need a drink. Not that these are really hot but they just make you want to drink that flavor away. They taste nothing like buffalo, or that sauce people put on wings and call it buffalo, and I don't think they are made in Buffalo. Thus, the only true part about the flavor is the hot, and it's not that hot. 
 
I don't care for these. I think normal Bugles are much better. Fail, total fail.

Luma Premium Soda cherry Cola Flavor

I couldn't stand Luma's Cola which is why I was so surprised when I tried their cherry cola and liked it. I'll give it more cherry than cola but then most colas taste bad and make you see why Coke is king. Give this a whorl. It's not  bad at all.

Luma Premium Soda Blood Orange Flavor

Luma Premium Soda Blood Orange Flavor looks so much better than it tastes. Tastes okay, and could use a shot of vodka. The elegance and wonderful color of this beverage draw me to it and the detergent aftertaste goes away as you keep drinking. 

I look at this stuff and think this is not the best flavor of Luma. I can see why Luma hasn't taken off.
