Dr. K Big K Soda

 

Dr. K Big K Soda is discount Dr. Pepper. If I didn't know I may not have noticed that this isn't the real deal. It's close, a little lest something, but still close. I give this a thumbs up all the way.

Galbani Fresh Marinated Mozzarella Cheese


 Galbani Fresh Marinated Mozzarella Cheese is cheese in oil. The oil can be cooked with but it does very little to help with the cheese. This is an okay thing to put in a salad. I didn't think it was great or worth full price but I didn't think it was bad. 

If you also use the flavored oil for cooking this can be a great product, but only for those of us who love to cook.

Waba Tofu Bowl

The Waba Tofu Bowl is something I figured I should try, I'm not a big fan, but I never did like tofu all that much. I can't say it was bad, but it could have been cooked more and it needed more sauce. Tofu takes the flavor from whatever you cook with it so you need to add things. I cook tofu with sesame seed oil to add flavor myself.

BOS Organic Iced Tea Yuzu


 BOS Organic Iced Tea Yuzu has no caffeine so it is a disappointment. They do plant trees and if I had known that I would have gotten a good deal more of them, because I love trees. This is fine tea, and you will not be disappointed by it if tea is your thing. I mean as in California tea with is unsweetened as country tea must be sweetened or else it is just tea that got cold.

Dr. Squatch Men's Natural Soap Pine Tar


 I can't tell you how long it has been that I wanted to try Pine Tar soap and Dr. Squatch Men's Natural Soap had me covered. If you can get past the dude who works for this company talking about your balls this is a fine product. However, there is a dude talking about balls associated with this product. 

This is good soap, but it brakes down faster than normal soap and has a strong but natural exfoliant. You will be going through these like they are beers if you use them at the sink.

Good but short lasting soap.

Gilles Frozen Custard Vanilla


 Gilles Frozen Custard Vanilla is okay. I can't say that it made me want more but when is a custard a bad thing? I would get it again, but I wouldn't go looking for it.

Equal Exchange Mama Tierra Coffee


 Equal Exchange Mama Tierra Coffee is lighter than I normally drink. I like coffee black as death and strong as stone. It has a light aroma and mild taste that make it more of a coffee for getting you out of bed then for sipping on cold days. 

This isn't my jam but it's for a good cause and if you like mid roast coffee this is for you.

Coffee Like Women - Eddie Izzard


 

Laird Superfood Original Superfood Creamer


 Laird Superfood Original Superfood Creamer is coconut creamer with mushrooms. I can't say it made that much of a difference, but as creamers go, it did the job.

Would I get it again, yes. Would I go looking for it, no.

Castello Danish Blue Cheese Extra Creamy


 In the world of stinky cheese Castello Danish Blue Cheese Extra Creamy is very stinky. I still smelled it a day after eating it even after washing and showering. This is the kind of cheese you don't want to have come in contact with your hands. 

Past that, all that stink makes it very flavorful. I will admit that if your into that flavor you may also have a foot fetish, but this cheese has a taste.

Suzie's Organic Hard Seltzer Very Berry


 Suzie's Organic Hard Seltzer Very Berry is not as refreshing as some of the better seltzers I've had but stands at the top of the hard seltzer game. It's that aftertaste that  holds this down but that's how you know you're drinking alcohol. 

Is it White Claw good? No, but not far off.

First Street Dark Red Kidney Beans


 First Street Dark Red Kidney Beans are one of those things you don't put a good deal of thought into. I mean, yeah, I'll drop them on a salad in a few years after the can is all dusty and too old. 

The truth is that we should respect the beans and have more of them with salad. If I did that I probably wouldn't be a big fat dude talking about beans... I'd be a less fat dude talking about beans.

Post Bran Flakes Cereal


 Post Bran Flakes Cereal are there for you to keep what you had last night moving through your gut as you face the new day. I have to admit I like this cereal. This is simple, fast, tastes fine, and keeps you from gathering mud in your gut. What more could you ask for?

Krispy Kreme Strawberry Chiller


 The Krispy Kreme Strawberry Chiller is small, I got the largest one, rich and cold enough to give you a brain freeze but it will not chill you enough to make it worth it. It would have honestly been better with less sugar and more ice.

I can't say it was bad but it was also expensive.  

If you want to chill some nice ice water will do you better than this.

Outsiders Pizza Company Detroit Style Pizza Four Cheese


 Ah, Detroit, Americas post apocalyptic city where the human population is all but extinct. I can see why after eating Outsiders Pizza Company Detroit Style Pizza Four Cheese which is just not as good as normal pizza. That thin layer of cheese also does not help. 

Is it bad, no, I found this to be one of the most filling pizzas I have ever had. The only problem is that it was pizza in name alone and really should have been called cheese bread. ... Easy on the cheese bread maybe.

The second time around, I just added cheese, which made it way better. I may buy this again but I'm going to be adding some things.

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.

Sun Fed Ranch Beef Sloppy Joe in Sloppy Joe Sauce


 Sun Fed Ranch Beef Sloppy Joe in Sloppy Joe Sauce tastes oddly of vegetables and brown sugar. It is not a Sloppy Joe, to be clear, it is sloppy Joe mix without a bun. Heat it how you like and slap it on whatever you want to, but to me this stuff is low on beef and high on onions.

I don't know what I was expecting given that "Sloppy Joe" sounds like a man who gets tied to a toiled in prison facing the bowl with his pants down, but this is just gross. Fail!

Suzie's Organic Hard Seltzer Kiwi Mango


 Suzie's Organic Hard Seltzer Kiwi Mango has a tolerable flavor of fermented fruit. I wouldn't call it good or bad just tolerable. On a hot day I can imagine reaching for this, maybe even dumping some over my head to make it feel cooler, but not drinking it for the sake of it.

What people don't get about hard seltzer is that it needs to be made with good vodka. Other wise it just isn't smooth.

Carl's Jr. Bacon Ranch Fries


 Carl's Jr. Bacon Ranch Fries are often sad and soggy. This is not to say that they are bad but let's just be honest here, you can get fries with ranch so the only reason to get these is the bacon and you don't get that much bacon. 

Come to think of it, they should just offer a side of bacon and let you dip that in ranch. 

Rocket Fizz Store Grass Soda


 You normally get grass soda by the bottle at around three bucks a pop. It's now available in a six pack and a fan from YouTube was good enough to get me some of this elusive beverage. 

You can't say it tastes like grass but rather that it has a grass aftertaste.  This gets bigger the more you drink and so a small sip will be good and downing a glass will make you feel like you took a tumble on a freshly mowed hill. 

I took some of these over to a friend's house and four of us divided up a bottle. The smaller samples made it much more appealing so if you're going to drink this then sip.

Jack in the Box Chocolate Croissant Bites


 Jack in the Box Chocolate Croissant Bites don't have much of a flavor and should be served with coffee. Black coffee at that as this would bring out the chocolate flavor. 

I have to say that these were a disappointment but would have been much better filled with caramel.

Yumy Yumy Mermaids Fruit Snacks


 Yumy Yumy Mermaids Fruit Snacks combined all the fun of candy with none of the nutritional advantages of fruit. Well, they do claim to have vitamin C so that is not all true. They will prevent scurvy I guess. 

I still don't get the idea of eating things you like. I love cats, but I don't really want cat fruit snacks. In any case, these are fine. I wouldn't get them again, but I wouldn't turn my nose up at them.

Monster Energy Dragon Tea, White Tea + Dragonfruit


 Monster Energy Dragon Tea, White Tea + Dragonfruit doesn't have much of a dragonfruit flavor but dragonfruit doesn't really have much flavor anyway. This is a fine sipping tea that goes down like water and will keep the heat off you. The only problem with it is that it's an energy drink and to keep cool you could down two or three without thinking about it.

I don't feel a kick when I drink this, but it does keep me going when working those long hours.

Jack in the Box Quad Bacon Cheesy Jack


 If you can't get enough of that soft fast food meat then the Jack in the Box Quad Bacon Cheesy Jack is for you.

This is everything I would think a fast food burger should be. I would still never choose it over a hamburger made with real meat, but as that oddly soft fast food meat goes this is good.

Lemon Perfect Watermelon Cherry


 Am I reviewing a lot of drinks lately? Is there a heatwave doing a good impression of Godzilla ripping up the US and Canada? 

Lemon Perfect Watermelon Cherry will not cure Godzilla's death breath. It has no real watermelon or cherry flavor that I can detect. It has a very strong lemon flavor which is enough to give it that cloudy appearance. 

At five Calories per can and enough vitamin C for a full day this stuff is kind of good for you. It can still lead to kidney stones if you drink too much.

Jack in the Box Jack's Classic Rooster Fries


 I really did my homework with these Jack in the Box Jack's Classic Rooster Fries having had three of them before writing this review. Why three, well, I had to be sure they had gotten it right before I talked about them. 

What you have here is a chicken strip chopped up and mixed with french fries then covered in orange slime that kind of tastes like cheese. It's a little on the disappointing side.

Yet I can't stop eating them. I wonder why. Oh, yes, I'm fat.

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.

Shin Black with Beef Bone Broth


 I ran into these Shin Black with Beef Bone Broth ramen and they just looked interesting. The taste interesting as well. I love it when a ramen makes my nose run because my nose is always getting dry. The only problem I have with this is that you get too much and sitting down to a properly made bowl of ramen with all the noodles and vegetables I put in can get rather large. 

I would go out and get a proper Japanese soup bowl to make these in if it were not for the salt, which there is too much of, it makes me swell up. 

In any case, these kill me so good.

Cap'n Crunch's Ocean Blue Artificially Maple Flavored Syrup


 Cap'n Crunch's Ocean Blue Artificially Maple Flavored Syrup is about as maple as any fake maple can be. Real maple is more expensive, but let's be honest, I shouldn't be eating this crap.  

Slapping sugar on a big mound of starch is meant to get meat on your bones for hard labor. I think the hardest thing I did after eating this was roll out the trash cans. 

If you needed a reason to smile more than pancakes in the morning then yeah this stuff may just do the trick. However, if you're that depressed see a doctor and he will tell you this stuff is pure sugar and just bad for you. This is a great way to slowly poison your children until they look like me and are very unhappy. eat accordingly.

Wow Triple Chocolate Chunk


 Wow Triple Chocolate Chunk is the hippy cookie that has no sugar or reason to exist. Flavorless things that taste like clay. I don't get the idea. Cookies, or what ever these are, normally aren't good for you but taste good. These things are a reason to drink more milk. Fail

Classico Spinach & Ricotta Lasagna


 Classico Spinach & Ricotta Lasagna is a wet mess that should not be called lasagna. I still have one in my freezer. One of those things about American Italian food is that it has so little flavor that it mostly just looks like what it is intended to be. 

This just hasn't the heft and form of Lasagna and really needs more of the flavor. I fed most of it to the opossums that live in my back yard. Fail!

Hard Frescos Hibiscus


 Hard Frescos Hibiscus is 12 oz of better than their cucumber lime. This doesn't say much, but hibiscus is not know to be vary flavorful. I got this because is was on sale and I can say it was not worth it. It's fine if you add something to flavor it up a little but otherwise this is kind of meh.
