Bud Light Cocktail Hour Strawberry Daiquiri


 The Strawberry Daiquiri is a flavorful drink with a deep red color. The Bud Light Cocktail Hour Strawberry Daiquiri is a mild drink with a pink tint. If they had called it a strawberry splash I would have been less disappointed but I still would have been disappointed. 

It has some strawberry in it but to make it taste like something you would really need to add more strawberry. It's not bad on a hot day but not good either.

Kellogg's Rice Krispies Red and Blue Color Mix

Kellogg's Rice Krispies Red and Blue Color Mix will turn your pooh colors. I don't mind that much but it is off putting. 

After that, these taste like the normal version so unless you're making patriotic snacks they just look different from the normal. Your children, who these are made for, may think the colored pooh is cool. 

As for me, I can live with colored pooh but would rather have normal pooh if that is an option.

Ball Park Brand Franks

Ball Park Brand Franks are made with the meat of whatever they can find. I mean, they say chicken and pork but they tasted like, well, stuff. Even my cats didn’t take kindly to being fed the Frankenstein concoctions of crap that comprise these wieners.

I know, I know, cats are fussy and in the end they did eat the hot dogs but they love eating hot dogs that are well made. I’ve had them made of chicken and pork before and they were never this bad.

I guess the whole reason people like Ball Park is because the bran represents America. We were once a great nation but now we are a laughing stalk and we no longer lead the free world.  Ball Park Brand Franks are a bad knock off of something that used to be much better.

Bang Cherry Blade Lemonade

Bang is what you want to do. I mean, who can’t use a good bang every now and then? The Cherry Blade Lemonade flavor is a fine bang and were as it will not put you at ease like really banging it will quench your thirst.

I still need to drink these in moderation because if I don’t I will get the runs before the jitters but I have to admit this is a fine drink.

McDonald’s McChicken Strips 2025

 McDonald’s has had McChikcen Strips before and they left for a reason. Now the things are back and better than before but still shy of good to be clear. I wouldn’t say these are worth going for but they are a little more chicken than the nuggets.

 The clown is pushing chicken because more people are eating chicken in the world of the bad economy. This is cheap chicken, but it just isn’t that great.

Curtice Brothers Organic Ketchup


 Curtice Brothers Organic Ketchup is a snazzy glass bottle ketchup which can add some class to your cookout. It also is on the runny side and has less flavor than the lower quality versions. 

This is ketchup for the more discerning palate. I would say you should try it but watch how much you poor out because it's easy to let too much go.

Jack in the Box Popcorn Chicken

 

Jack in the Box Classic Popcorn Chicken are dry little nuggets of breading with just a little chicken in there. The breading is too thick and heavy and it’s made to hide how little chicken the use.

These are dry even with sauce and low quality. I wouldn’t get them again because they give me indigestion.

 


Pop Secret Extra Butter


 Movie night at home may not be a summer thing. It's more of a fall thing but you may not want to pay the movie theater and the kids need something to do. That's when you reach for Pop Secret Extra Butter to give them the experience of the theater at home. 

I haven't had movie theater popcorn in a long time so I have no idea how true that is. However, I do know that this popcorn is okay. I don't know if the extra butter thing is all that big of a deal. It taste like all the other Pop Secret I've had, but it's good popcorn.

Jones Soda Co Special Release Nukea Cola Victory

I was never a fan of the FallOut games. They take too long for me. This Jones Soda Co Special Release Nukea Cola Victory was at the discount store and so I figured I’d try it. Given that it was gone the next day I have to say I did the right thing.

Anyway, tastes nothing like cola and has a peach flavor of all things. I don’t get it but maybe the game or show would explain. I also wouldn’t call it great. I don’t dislike it but there could be more flavors in there.


 

Crav'N Flavor Classic Potato Chips

Crav'N Flavor Classic Potato Chips are not as greasy as Lays. They have a little less flavor and don't get on your hands as much but if you want the big bag at a good price these aren't bad. 

If you want to put these in a bowl at a party then they are close enough that most folks won't notice, but how much are you saving? 

These aren't bad, but they aren't as good as the real thing.

Tony's Chocolonely Dark Almond Sea Salt Chocolate

Tony's Chocolonely operates on the idea that children should not suffer so that a blob like me can have candy. I agree with this idea. If it were not for this blog I shouldn't be eating chocolate at all, really. I should be eating a salad.

Their Dark Almond Sea Salt Chocolate is a list of things I love mixed together and made into a candy bar. I feel like I need a drink and a shower after eating this because it's so good. I mean, I'm happy that no children were forced to harvest chocolate so I could have this, but I don't think I should eat more because I would never stop eating them if I had them.

Bar-S Smoked Polish Sausage

Bar-S is a low bar because their Smoked Polish Sausage isn’t all that great. I would not say they are bad in anyway. I mean, I like them enough and my cats like them enough. They like them better than those Ball Park hot dogs that even dogs looked at you twice before eating.

They could really have a little more flavor but once you get them in a bun they taste just fine. I got that at a great price so I’m happy.
