Valentine Sour Patch Kids Sour Hearts

 Valentine Sour Patch Kids Sour Hearts are sour as hell. There are few things more hard core than giving your girl black hearts for the big V day. It's the perfect way to say you want to do it dirty and rusty.

I can't tell you what rusty means on this blog. I mean, kids could see this. 

Anyway, as candy these are fine, very sour, and kind of sweet. Yeah, you don't get as much as you think you would, but the candy is good.  

Chocolove Bar Cinnamon Ganache Milk Chocolate Valentine

 The Chocolove Bar Cinnamon Ganache is a Milk Chocolate Valentine that was leftover last year. You can taste more cinnamon than chocolate but then if you wanted more chocolate flavor you'd go dark. The end result isn't something that made me want more of these but I did eat the whole thing. 

All in all, I can't say this is all that romantic. I mean, it's a candy bar. I like those, but it isn't all that well themed. If you want cinnamon and chocolate this is for you. I just don't see how it's so Valentine.  

Dove Promises Midnight Fudge Cookie

If your special someone is not into fine chocolate they my just have a love for Dove Promises Midnight Fudge Cookies which are a step up from your every day candy bar but not as fine as box chocolate. 

These are rich enough to be like by the milk chocolate lovers of the world but lack the bitter strength of most dark chocolate. The fact that both real and artificial flavors were used is disappointing. 

In short, the kids will love this but don't give them to your wife thinking you'll impress her.
 

Hostess Valentine Ding Dongs

 If getting a Ding Dong or giving a Ding Dong is what you want to do for Valentine's Day then Hostess has you covered. I mean, just the tip by the looks of it, but with real cream filling. 

these are not as good as many Hostess products but then some people like their sugar less rich.  

If I were not a big fat slob I would still not buy more of these, because I feel there are better options but these aren't bad. I would say these are nice and if you're not fat like me a good addition to the holiday.

Hershey's Hugs White Chocolate with Creme Valentine Candy

 The Hershey's kiss is likely the most perfect chocolate I have ever had. So how do you improve on that?  You don't! Hershey's Hugs White Chocolate with Creme Valentine Candy are just not as good as the kisses. I mean, they taste fine and I ate too many of them, but they sat around in my refrigerator for months and I weight three hundred and ninety pounds. 

When a blob like me doesn't finish off his chocolate you know it's not that great. 

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.

 

Nestle Toll House Valentine Chocolate Chip Cookie dough

 Nestle Toll House Valentine Chocolate Chip Cookie dough was all over the place last year. I think this is for moms and sad lonely people who don't know much about romance. The red and pink candy hearts make them a step down from normal chocolate chip cookies.

Valentines day is a day we buy things we shouldn't and get fat. Most holidays are, and I never thought much of it, but if you want to show a loved one you care about them I don't think this is the way. I gave my mother breakfast in bed, for example, but for most of us men we should just do the dishes.

Sensible Portions Garden Veggie Chips Valentine Hearts Sea Salt

 Garden Veggie Chips Mini Hearts are another of those bad ideas for valentine's day. I mean, look at where you need to write the from and to and think what it would do to the chips within to put names on them. 

These do taste like normal Garden Veggie Chips, and they make a good pallet cleanser for when you get too much sugar and can't taste it any more. I would not give these out to class or coworkers, but if you find them on sale like I did they aren't bad. 

Now the whole "sensible portions" idea means you eat more bags and make more trash. You want sensible eat an apple.

 

Palmer Valentine Chocolate Cuddly Cuties White and Milk Chocolate Flavored Candy

Palmer Valentine Chocolate Cuddly Cuties White and Milk Chocolate Flavored Candy are not bad for not being real chocolate. They are not great and I normally would never eat fake chocolate, or anything saying 'flavored' on it really. Still, if you want to fill the office candy bowl with a holiday treat to kill your coworkers this is a great choice.

Let the synthetic nightmare dominate your holiday. 

Russell Stover Strawberry Cream Heart

I went in thinking I would hate these Russell Stover Strawberry Cream Hearts, but I have to admit that they're really great. Sweet and rich with just the right amount of strawberry flavor. These are a great way to brighten your Valentine's day if you're not fat like me. 

Panera Bread Valentine Cookie

Panera Bread has a cookie for every holiday. The same shortbread cookie with frosting for the most part, but I keep buying them so I can't say it isn't working. These don't travel so well so keep them out of a hot car but they are just like mitten cookies only heart shaped.
