Kirkland Signature Boneless Skinless Chicken Tenderloins


 Kirkland Signature Boneless Skinless Chicken Tenderloins are on the stringy side but they were less than the chicken breasts so I got two bags.

I have no idea how a chicken tenderloin is a thing. I mean, how can that come from the loin of a chicken? Anyway, these are smaller and better for making chicken fingers or for portion control, but they get caught in your teeth.   

I don't have much in the way of complaints about them, but I still have to say 'go for what is the best price'.

Kirkland Signature Hard Seltzer Mango


 Kirkland Signature Hard Seltzer Mango is just as bad as all the other flavors. The stuff just tastes like whatever it was got watered down and made to taste like crap.

Kirkland Signature Hard Seltzer Grapefruit

As you sip your Kirkland Signature Hard Seltzer Grapefruit the crisp taste of fruit fills your mouth and you wish you could take down the drink in one long swig. Then you're forced to stop to breathe, and the 'assfter' taste starts to fill your mouth with regret. This is the best fail on the part of this brand, and if you mix this with something like a little fruit juice or soda it wont taste so bad. Otherwise it will make you want to barf it back up.

Kirkland Signature Hard Seltzer Black Cherry

 Kirkland Signature Hard Seltzer Black Cherry tastes like cherry after you eat it and piss out the stuff. I mean, it's got just enough sugar to make it taste water down. Why anyone would want to drink this glorified butt wash I don't know but I'd stay clear unless you want to add it to cherry soda. Adding a can of soda to this crap make sit okay. You can also drink it on a hot day if you are otherwise parched and it won't be that bad.

Kirkland Signature Hard Seltzer Lime


 Kirkland Signature Hard Seltzer Lime is not  the worst hard seltzer I've ever had but it's not at all good. This stuff could be lighter save for the sugar content which gives it an odd flavor. 

I'm calling this one a fail. Nasty.

Kirkland Signature Organic Orange Juice

Kirkland Signature Organic Orange Juice is orange juice that settles at the bottom. I mean, it's find just give it a shake.

Kirkland Signature Einstein Brothers Bagels Everything Bagel

It is somewhat annoying that Kirkland Signature is stamped on my Einstein Brothers Bagels. I had no idea this was a bagle I could get at places other than Costco and looking at what kind of bagles are on offer in store makes me feel like I can do better than this. 

Then again, my Nimh likes them so that's good enough for me.  

Then again, all that stuff on them can just get everywhere.

Kirkland Signature Wild Alaskan Pacific Cod

Kirkland Signature Wild Alaskan Pacific Cod is prime white fish. I mean, white fish tastes like nothing so it takes on the flavor you give it. I like to keep it simple with butter and pepper, but this stuff goes with most things and is best had with white wine.

Kirkland Signature Maple Syrup

Kirkland Signature Maple Syrup is bland and runny by comparison to other maple syrups I've had. This is not to say that it is all that bad, but I've simply had better. I would take this over corn syrup any day.

Kirkland Signature Organic Whole Cashews Unsalted Unroasted

Kirkland Signature Organic Whole Cashews Unsalted Unroasted are about as plain as cashews can get. These are the kind of things you buy, because you don't want to eat the whole box. Great for topping salads or yogurt, these cashews are not to be had alone. 

I mean, what do you say about unsalted cashews anyway?

Kirkland Signature Organic Greek Yogurt

If boredom were a food I'm sure it would be plain yogurt. Kirkland Signature Organic Greek Yogurt is as plain as yogurt gets so what it tastes like is dependent on what you put in. There is a slightly bitter flavor, but it is almost unnoticeable if you add the right fruit. 

I don't know if you can see that I also added spinach to this to give me more nutrients and fiber. That only works if you cut the spinach small and mix it in well. 

After eating this I feel more mature for some reason.

Kirkland Signature 100% Colombian Coffee

Kirkland Signature 100% Colombian Coffee is a robust dark coffee that get's you up in the morning. The only big thing is that I don't know if it is responsibly sourced and I think they can't grow enough food to feed the people in Colombia. Makes me think as I drink my coffee.

Kirkland Signature 2015 California Pinot Grigio

Kirkland Signature 2015 California Pinot Grigio is a white wine that tastes okay. It's not totally dry, but not at all sweet. 

Look, I don't get the whole wine thing. I mean, I thought wine was that thing my sister was always doing. It turns out that was whine, not wine, who knew?

Anyway, I will drink this if the choice is to die of thirst and I plan to use it to cut stronger alcohols, but I wouldn't buy it again.

Kirkland Signature Vodka

Kirkland Signature Vodka(imported) is to the best of my knowledge a doppelganger for Gray Goose. I have never had Gray Goose so I can't say but it is a good buy being a vodka that I can take in shots. 

I would also say that this vodka pairs well with most drinks for the most part being undetectable. 

The one thing I dislike about this vodka is the over-sized bottle it comes in that will fit just about nowhere. If you want to keep this in the freezer you're out of luck or need a very large freezer.

Kirkland Signature 2016 Pinot Grigio

Kirkland Signature 2016 Pinot Grigio is an Italian white wine that has a very very dry flavor and no semblance of fruit that I can detect. 

I found this to be a flavor that I would not get again, but I have to point out that a wine of this nature is simply not for me. 

I would rather have a sweet wine. If you like it dry this is the wine for you. It is not the wine for me.

Kirkland Signature Original Spiced Rum


Kirkland Signature Original Spiced Rum is the first rum I have ever tasted. Other than that I can't figure how it's original. Then again it's the original for Kirkland I guess. 

Some how I don't see pirates singing "yo ho, yo ho," and swinging a bottle of this around. Then again, I don't no what hos they would be calling on ship so that song is kind of dumb.

Anyway, Kirkland Signature Original Spiced Rum is not as good as Vodka but hits a good deal harder. The favor is not that great and I'm sure modern pirates would love to have a bottle.

Drink if you like rum, pass if you're not that kind of a man.

Kirkland Signature American Vodka

If you'r thinking of a Vodka for the new year this one will do well for your money. Kirkland Signature American Vodka is a smooth drink with a solid finish and no major aftertaste. Where as I never was big on shots I have this often with cola and other sodas, and it always fits well without making it's presence to overt.

Kirkland Signature Maple Syrup

As you can see Kirkland Signature Maple Syrup is thin by comparison to the fake crap you buy that calls itself 'syrup'. It stand superior in terms of flavor on all counts. 

Now, I tend to thicken it by dropping it in the blender with berries.

I can't say this is good for you but it is natural and more satisfying.

Kirkland Signature Black Forest Ham

Kirkland Signature Black Forest Ham is crap. It tasted fine but was hard to chew and had little bits I kept having to spit out. I wouldn't mind that in my beef jerky but this is lunch meat.

Kirkland Signature Reduced Fat Milk

We do so much to milk to make it better for us and I think that whole idea is over rated. This milk was on the watery side and folks say you should try and get used to watery milk.

I say, stuff it, I don't drink that much milk to start with! We live in a fat-phobic world so we take the fat out of milk because we think that makes it better.
Do you know what makes milk better? Pasteurization! How about a better environment for the cow and eating nutrient rich grass, huh, not a question.

For those of you who hate fat and are not to keen on what healthy is this stuff is just fine. For me, I'm not a fan of this milk, but it's better than having my breakfast with soy-milk by a slim margin.
