Immaculate Baking Company Organic Flaky Biscuits


 Immaculate Baking Company Organic Flaky Biscuits should be cooked in a nonstick pan and they cook a little faster than expected. In fact, I would go with the 325 as apposed to 350 in the recommendations even for a normal pan. 

Past that, meh, these are as good as what you have them with and not great cold.

The Conqueror Events The English Channel Virtual Challenge


 For the low low price of $29.95 you too can walk twenty one miles, plant five trees, and get this nice medal. The Conqueror is willing to let you pay them to motivate you to get less fat and be more Eco friendly.  

All joking aside, virtual fitness challenges are a thing, and you get the same quality awards that you would from most marathons. Conqueror is one of the more expensive services, because you also pay to plant trees meaning that in addition to a healthier you there is a healthier world. 

I'm not sure how much it would be to plant trees, but I do know that walking is free. I ordered this to plant trees more than to get fit, and I stand by the fact that I want to keep breathing clean air. Only you can decide for yourself if planting trees in important.

As for this thing, you can get all kinds of them for less but they make you look like a hoarder. Conqueror awards make you look like a better human being.

Big K Fruit Punch Soda


 Big K Fruit Punch Soda is a basic knock off of Hawaiian Punch. Oddly, I've never found a bad one of these so you can drink the punch without worry. Never having been the biggest fan of this flavor I think it's worth getting every now and again. 

Then, I live in California, it's hot as balls out here thanks to global warming, and I always want a drink.

Johnsonville Flame Grilled Cheddar Sausage


 What little winter we have here in California is gone and we can now cook out doors...it's been that way since January, but I digress. Slap a few Johnsonville Flame Grilled Cheddar Sausages on your grill and you can have yourself both a night of eating food for the depressed and of wearied dreams that come about of eating cheese.

I've never liked cheese sausage, but these are very good for cheese sausage. Cheese away and they will make your dreams vivid and crazy...any cheese before bed will do that.

Big K Soda Cherry Cola


 Big K Soda Cherry Cola is just as good as name brand soda. I mean it, I love this stuff. It's an inexpensive alternative to a majorly overlooked flavor of cola. I, being a fat man, should probably never buy it again, but I will.

The Great Organic Uncured Chicken Hot Dogs

 

The Great Organic Uncured Chicken Hot Dogs are unremarkable. I mean, they just look at you and say "put something on me. I feel naked." 

This is not to say they are bad. They just taste like nothing.

Earth Breeze Laundry Detergent


 Earth Breeze Laundry Detergent is one of those products that if you haven't thought of buying it for your grandmother then you're a bad person. I mean that, each one of those packets is 60 units of soap so grandma can stop lugging around those boxes. I don't mean for a birthday or Christmas, but you should check in on grandma, let her know you care about her, and drop off these to make her day that much easier. 

I've lifted a good deal of laundry soap for the elderly in my day. 

In any case, this is an Eco Friendly product being the lightest detergent on the market, having 100% biodegradable packaging, and, best of all, it will not leave nasty film in your washing machine. 

There is some talk of it being safer than laundry pods as no one is going to go and eat this stuff, but you will have to keep them out of reach of children. You also need to keep them dry or in a water proof container. Don't handle these with wet hands. 

Still, if you're like me and you like breathing, and living, and eating fish without plastic in it then these are a buy. Also, if you're like me and you don't want to have to replace your washing machine any time soon these are a great buy. I just had my machine worked on, and those pod things left if full of purple goo.

Steve's Ice Cream Cold-Brewed Cinnamon Coffee


 Steve's Ice Cream Cold-Brewed Cinnamon Coffee is ice cream, and so, good. It was not coffee enough for me, but that didn't stop me from cramming it down my fat face and wanting more. 

I like my ice cream to be bursting with flavor so that I can eat a little and get a buzz out of it. This stuff is great just not what I like.

Hormel Black Label Eggs, Sausage & 3 Cheeses Oven-Baked Egg Bites

 "Hormel Black Label Eggs, Sausage, & 3 Cheeses Oven-Baked Egg Bites" are a breakfast item for the folks who haven't the time to make food. They will not fill you up but along with a good apple or some carrots will get you going. 

Are they great, no, but they are good at the write price. I would rather cook than eat these because that would be more filling and better quality with more of the ingredients I want, but if you're short on time these work just fine.

Jell-O Play Treasure Dessert Kit


 The Jell-O Play Treasure Dessert Kit sounds like a good idea until you find out that it takes a lot of practice to get them write. I mean, yeah, them cookie crumbs are okay, and the pudding is fine, but this thing is a monster compared to what they should look like. Also, those fruit snack thing get hard and chewy so are no fun to eat. 

If you like playing with your food you're better off just getting pudding, cookies, and fruit snacks, and making these on your own rather than buying the kit. That way you can't run out of cookie crumbs like I did.

Vermont Creamery Cultured Butter Sea Salt


 Vermont Creamery Cultured Butter Sea Salt just tastes like butter to me. I mean, I don't really go around tasting butter do I? Have you ever thought about how much taste butter should even have?

Come to think of it, I never tried to find the difference between sea salt and normal salt. It's all mostly salt in the end.

In any case, this is about as good as butter is. I don't really know if it's better than other butters, but as butter goes this is buttery.

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.

Tenton Waters Ranch Hardwood Smoked Sausage


 Tenton Waters Ranch Hardwood Smoked Sausage is as much of a hippy hotdog as a hot dog can be without being plant based. Don't get me wrong here, I'm happy that the cow was treated well, but these things are bland. They make good hotdogs. Past that, not so much sausage.

Barbara's Organic Brown Rice Crispy Cereal


 Barbara's Organic Brown Rice Crispy Cereal is not as good as Rice Krispies. They're okay, I mean, no crackle and no glamor. This is just a toasted food that could use some more toasting.

Cafe Valley Bakery 7-Up Cake


 Cafe Valley Bakery 7-Up Cake is lemon cake. I mean, it's not bad. I would say that it's good but not great. It doesn't have the crisp nature of 7-Up. I've never had this kind of thing before, but I had been seeing it in stores for months. 

I picked two of these up to celebrate Joe Biden's inauguration. The big thing there being I was so into the idea of this cake that it not turning out to be great really put a damper in my spirits. It's cake, just cake, not bad, but not much to speak of.

Annie's Homegrown Organic Frosted Oat Flakes


 Annie's Homegrown Organic Frosted Oat Flakes are great. I mean, if you read this blog long enough you know I'm down on sugar cereals, because they're what comes up for me to try and they are so bad for me. A good number of them taste like crap. Sugary crap, yes, but still crap. 

These I like, I wish I had gotten more boxes of them. Not too sugary but tastes good and doesn't make me sick.

Monster Dragon Tea Verba Mate

Monster Dragon Tea Verba Mate tastes like tea and works like monster. I can't say that I'm in love with this stuff but it's good. I would get more. I love dragons and I'm trying to figure how to open it from the bottom to keep it original.

Jimmy Bean Morning Combos Mini Maple Pancakes Maple Sausage Bites


 Morning is like hangover only you haven't had the fun that comes with hangover, but you still need to get going. Jimmy Bean Morning Combos Mini Maple Pancakes Maple Sausage Bites are a great way to get that first burst of energy. Have these with a cup of coffee and a nice apple and you just may be able to make a meal for the rest of your family without braking down and crying and asking god why he made morning to punish you. ... is that just me?

Anyway, I like to wrap the sausage in the pancakes and eat them like pigs in a blanket. This way the blanket doesn't get caught in my teeth.

Jinn Natural Energy Mint & Lemon

Jinn Natural Energy Mint & Lemon is definitely an abnormal energy drink if I've ever had one. I mean, there is a lot of good stuff in this energy drink but the flavor is off putting to me. 

Mint and Lemon may tickle some folks, but I'm not one of them. In addition this is a zero calorie so the artificial sweetener will come out my tail pipe all red and burning. 

On the one hand, I hate this and on the other it's so crazy that everyone should really try a can. You never know, it may grow on you.

Hormel Black Label Maple Black Pepper Thick Cut Bacon


 Hormel Black Label Maple Black Pepper Thick Cut Bacon has a long name. I hate long names. Why would you complicate bacon with so long a name. It tastes like bacon. Isn't that good enough?

Make this stuff and your kitchen will smell like maple. It will not taste like maple, but who wants bacon or their kitchen to taste like maple?

Annie's One-Pot Pasta Pizza Mac with Hidden Veggies


 Annie's One-Pot Pasta Pizza Mac with Hidden Veggies has too dang long of a name. I mean, you're a knock off of Hamburger Helper. Don't go around trying to be something you're not, and you're not pizza. 

Look, this stuff is easy to make, easy to burn, and not as good as pizza. It could be better for you, but I think that depends on the pizza. I think it's more of a fail than a win, but I could one pot sausage and vegetables and make something better and better for me than this.

Chicken of the Sea Wild Catch Premium Alaskan Salmon


 Chicken of the Sea Wild Catch Premium Alaskan Salmon is something I honestly got for my cats. It's a good thing too because the one time I cooked with this my cats where all over the table. I couldn't keep them away.

As for me, I'll stick to frozen Salmon. It's a bit less fishy.

Crodo Lemon Soda


 Crodo Lemon Soda has just as much sugar as normal soda, but is so lemon that it's still tart. Refreshing and crisp this soda should be had only with good company and good alcohols. I admit this is not for everyone, but I would buy it again.

Tillamook Aged Cheddar Cream Cheese Spread

Tillamook Aged Cheddar Cream Cheese Spread taste like, well, cream cheese. I know, it should taste like cheddar, but it just tastes like cream cheese to me. I like cream cheese and this is good cream cheese as far as any cream cheese is good. 

Good job making cream cheese spread that tastes like cream cheese I guess.

Old Home Buttermilk Bread


 Old Home Buttermilk Bread is what you would expect from a buttermilk bread. It is soft and makes really good toast. It's not as good for you as some harder breads, but then we in the modern age have learned to eat soft bread. 

This is that old problem of the better it tastes the worse it is for you. If you're fat like me this is the wrong bread to buy. If you are not fat like me go ahead and buy this, it's good bread.

Reese’s Pieces Shake & Break Chocolate 1.2 oz Egg

Call me unimpressed Reese’s Pieces Shake & Break Chocolate 1.2 oz Egg. You don't have enough pieces, and your chocolate is so so. I wouldn't by you again because there are so many better eggs out there.

Russell Stover Sours Watermelon Bunny

This abomination is a Russell Stover Sours Watermelon Bunny. It looks like chocolate but the flavor is all wrong. I can't figure why this direction would be taken on Easter, but I guess folks eat watermelon on Easter so it's okay. I can't say I didn't like this. It was just fine. I would have like chocolate better but I had to get this because it was new.

Peeps Marshmallow Root Beer Float

Peeps Marshmallow Root Beer Float are Root Beer enough but you can taste the float. All in all, these are rather good. I like them enough to choose them over normal Peeps but not enough to buy more.

Friday, April 2, 2021

Reese's Pieces Eggs

Reese's Pieces Eggs are like big Reese's Pieces with more shell. To be honest I think normal Reese's Pieces are better. 

All the eggs and rabbits of Easter are supposed to get people banging t make more Catholics. It's a funny way of saying 'let's get it on.'

Lindt Colocate Carrots

Lindt Colocate Carrots are small, taste fine, and want to be better than they are. I mean, yeah, these are okay but they come in a kind of small pack and you would think they would be a bit more rich. 

I don't know, I like them but not a whole lot.
