Kentucky Coffee Black Hard Cold Brew

Kentucky Coffee Black is a whiskey coffee cocktail that is mildly sweet. It is made with a bitter coffee so it would need a good amount of sugar to be sweet. This is one of the milder alcohols that would not get you drunk so much as keep you drunk or bring you back from that hangover.  

I feel like this is a fine thing to add to Irish Cream or take with a shot of Fireball, bit on it's own it lacks flavor. It's dark and bitter with a mildly coffee like flavor.  
 

The Habit French Fries

 I haven't been to The Habit in ten years and so I didn't remember what the French Fries were like. These are not as thick as stake fries and have more flavor than french fries normally has. I believe they are blanched so they have a crunch. They are a step above but so is most of what you get at the Habit. 

I haven't been to the Habit because I don't go out like I used to. Also why I haven't been to a lot of places. 

Do I miss the Habit? No, but I admit I would like to try more from their. 

Buon Appetito California Sweet Roll

Buon Appetito California Sweet Roll is a Seven Eleven find. I will say that these are miserable without coffee. They are dry and crumbly and not that sweet.

They are good for dipping in coffee if you don't mind tearing them up. It takes the liquid well, but it has little flavor on its own. 

I wouldn't get this again but I wouldn't turn them down if they were free. 
 

Signature Select Cranberry Orange Ginger Italian Soda

Signature Select Cranberry Orange Ginger Italian Soda sounds so much better than it is. I mean, this was an oddball product I found on the discount wrack and figured it was worth a try. I guess it's more of a Christmas thing but it's a disappointment like finding out that Santa isn't real. 

I still can't wrap my head around that one. I mean, who thought he was real? Did you think there really was an Easter Bunny? 

Anyway, this is cranberry soda. The orange and ginger are lost. In a soda like this you need a strong orange, with a touch of cranberry, and then add ginger to give it a gut settling effect. This stuff wasn't ginger at all and I didn't know it was orange until I read the label. 

I call this a fail.  
 

Bonkers Purr Pops Chicky Licks

My cats can’t get enough of these Chicky Licks Purr Pops but Bonkers. The swarm all over me when I open the  box but they will run off with the pop and ditch the stick somewhere where it will be found latter.

I admit these freeze dried things are like catnip for my fur babies but I saw their price on Amazon and had to ask if they could be worth that much. I got them on sale.

 

Smucker's Uncrustables Peanut Butter

These Smucker's Uncrustables Peanut  Butter were half off the sale price in my local freezer section. I can see why. Without jelly these thing aren't that great. 

They really need something to boost the flavor. I'll grant that may not have to be jelly but spice or something may just make them less bland and more palatable.  

Then, they stick to your mouth. If you haven't got something to drink with them they will clog up your pie hole. Overall, they aren't a fun eating experience. 

Add in the fact that if you  don't keep them frozen they dry out fast and are not a quick snack at home and you've got something only worth tossing in your lunch when you have no time to make food.  

I think you can make these at home and freeze them for less and get something better.  
 

Bon Appetit Lemon Cake

Bon Appetit Lemon Cake is okay. I can't say it has a strong lemon taste and most people who eat lemon cake want a strong lemon taste. 

However, this isn't as rich as other cakes of this line and the lemon flavor gives it a much better balance. 

I'd say this would go best with black coffee. I like it but I wouldn't make it a regular buy.
 

M&M'S Cherry Chocolate Cupcake

M&M'S Cherry Chocolate Cupcake are part of the Bakery Collection and as I've never had chocolate cherry cupcakes I guess these are kind of like them. 

My  biggest gripe is that these are like two hundred and ten calories for that little pack. I mean, is that as much as you normally get?  

Anyway, these are fine if you eat the M's on the regular but for those of us who only have them on the holidays these are not as good as the classic. 

I meh at you, M&M'S Cherry Chocolate Cupcake, I meh at you. 

The Saja Boys Breakfast Meal

The Saja Boys Breakfast Meal at McDonald's is a normal breakfast with new sauce. I'm kind of unimpressed. I mean, yeah, a sausage egg McMuffin could use a little more kick and this gives it more kick but adds some unwanted flavors as well. 

I'm all for LGBTQ+, but I don't want to eat things covered in dudes in pink. There is a dirtier joke in there. 

Anyway, these are okay. I wouldn't call them better than the normal version, but I would call them good enough to try.  
 

Alberstons Sugar Cookies

These Alberstons Sugar Cookies were on sale after St. Patrick's Day which could be why they are green. I don't know. 

Anyway, these are soft chewy cookies that have little in the way of flavor and would appeal best to kids. 

We coffee drinkers would find them flavorless and not something to dip in the coffee.  
 

The Habit Cucumber Limeade

I had to go to some partyesk thing and picking up lunch before hand led me to The Habit. It's been years. They had Cucumber Limeade which looked a good deal worse than it tastes but still tasted far too rich. 

I don't know what it is about cucumber in drinks but for me it needs to be fresh and it needs to be light. 

This stuff was just too sugary for me. I didn't hate it, but it wasn't as good as a good old soda.  
 

Scoops Ahoy Chocolate Pudding Ice Cream

This Scoops Ahoy Chocolate Pudding Ice Cream has been sitting in my freezer for too long but you know Ice Cream is like Pizza and Weed. Even when it's bad it's still good.

I was unimpressed as the texture was odd and it was kind of like rocky road without the nuts. 

I don't think they still make this stuff but maybe it will make a comeback with Stranger Things spin offs. I hope they make a better version if they do.

Pudding Ice Cream just sounds dumb to me but who am I?
 

7-Select Chocolate Snack Pies

 7-Select Chocolate Snack Pies may be harder to get soon with Seven Eleven shutting down some of its locations. That's no big loss because these are okay but I would just call them Okay.

I'll grant I would eat them by the dozen were I not so fat and disgusting, but then if you did that you'd be on the fast track to look like me anyway. 

Smucker's Uncrustables Peanut Butter & Raspberry

Smucker's Uncrustables Peanut Butter & Raspberry are what they sound like. That being a white bread sandwich made with raspberry and peanut butter. I feel like these should be thought of more like candy than normal meal food but then I don't think anyone is calling these healthy. 

As far as eating these, past them getting stuck to the top of my mouth they were good. I liked them, but I have to admit these are bad for me.  
 

Costco Caramel Churro Sundae

I miss the Costco Churro which is a thing I ate in my younger days. Now as a fatter and older man, I'm not as into it, and they stopped making them. Now they have these disappointments the Costco Caramel Churro Sundae which can be had with any Costco Food Court Ice Cream.

I couldn't taste any cinnamon and the Churro bits were like bad cookie dough.  

Fail, I mean, fail, not better than the normal ice cream.  
 

Mtn Dew

 The original Mountain Dew was something I needed to get because I had tasted so many new flavors and said none came close to the original. I got this case and found I was right and my memory wasn't bad. 

I still couldn't tell you what this tastes like but it is the best of the Dew

Bon Appetit Pound Cake

Pound cake is named for the four pounds of ingredients that were used in the original recipe. That would be a pound each of eggs, sugar, flower, and butter. This would kind of mean that what you have with Bon Appetit Pound Cake is not all that pound cake like.

I'm still not sure what would make this a pound cake as apposed to a yellow cake, but pound cake is supposed to be rich and thick.  

As cake goes this is a find thing to have with coffee. I would never eat it without something to drink but coffee would be my go to. Sticks to the inside of my mouth.  

All in all, if you're a big dude like me pound cake is a bad thing to have. If you're some bony butt then this would be a good way to pack on the pounds. 
 

Deli Fresh Havarti

 I can’t say that I have ever been the biggest fan of Havarti but this Havarti tastes like nothing. It is as non present as cheese can be and still be a part of your sandwich. I can’t say anything bad about it, all I can say is that it has very little taste as cheese goes.

I would never have it over any of the good old provolone I’ve had, but there is no reason not to buy it.

Nature Valley Chocolate Turtle Soft Baked Sweet and Salty Bars

You have to admit that Nature Valley is just making candy when you look at these Chocolate Turtle Soft Baked Sweet and Salty Bars. I don't think these are even made of oats which would make them better than normal bread. 

I have to admit that I love these things but Nature Valley is supposed to look like health food wile being candy. These just look like candy. 

As candy goes this is good candy. I still feel it's candy and not good for me, but I would get these again.  
 

Warheads Sour Green Apple Soda

Warheads Sour Green Apple Soda is the best Warheads Soda I have tried. It tastes just like a Granny Smith Apple. I'm not dead sure why you would want a soda that tastes that way but I guess the apple wouldn't last as long. 

You could mix some really killer drinks with this because of its robust flavor. I wouldn't buy this on the regular because it's expensive for soda but I will enjoy the cans I have. 
 

Dr. Squatch Moon Rock Soap

 I love space and I need soap so I got this Dr. Squatch Moon Rock Soap and forgot about it. I wonder if they still make this stuff. The idea of limited addition soup ticks me off. I mean, what if you really like the stuff and they stop making it?

Anyway, this soap has sand in it so it’s harsh and the kind of thing you only use if you need to really get your skin clean and get all the dead off. I mean this would be good for removing grease from your skin or maybe makeup after Halloween or something.

This is not the kind of soap you wash with every day. This is the stuff you use when you need to hard clean.

5-hour ENERGY Extra Strength Grape Energy Drink

The 5-hour ENERGY Extra Strength Grape Energy Drink is very candy grape. For a zero calorie beverage it is rather good and better than the other flavors of this brand I have tried. 

I would still drink this in moderation, but if it shows up at my local discount market I would get more. 

Russell Stover Candies Creams Milk & Dark Chocolates Assorted Candies Gift Box (9.4 oz)

 Russell Stover is the kind of candies you get when you're at the store and you need something fancy but not too fancy. They make the holiday candy that folks get and forget and these boxes that look like nice candy but are nothing of the sort. 

Where as I wouldn't call them bad, I would say that they remind me of why my mother was always disappointed with my old man when he got soft center chocolates.  

These are fruity thing that taste okay, but are not that fancy. I'd rather have something better but I shouldn't have them at all. A good old Snickers will knock these out of the box. 

Trader Joe's Instant Coffee Packets with Creamer & Sugar

I've been running hard duty for a few months now and Trader Joe's Instant Coffee Packets with Creamer & Sugars looked like a great option for caffeine on the go that wouldn't burst in my car and would warm me up on a cold night. I am so disappointed. 

This didn't taste much like coffee and didn't have much of a smell either. I admit that it worked okay but I make my coffee strong. I'd even say that I would have liked this a good deal better if I had added packets of other coffee to add flavor. 

This was watery and mild. It's not something that would get you going on a hard morning before a shoot.  

McDonald's Ramyeon McShake Fries

McDonald's must have had a ball with their Grinch Fries because here is round two with their Ramyeon McShake Fries. These things are supposed to taste like chicken needles with soy sauce, I think, because they do. I don't know why you would want fries to taste like that given that McDonald's is the king of fries, but I'm just not complaining. 

These are not as bad as the Grinch Fries because those sucked like a professional woman on payday, but they aren't that great. 

The big issue is that fries are already salty and this is just more salt. I get that pot noodles are salty but to be dead honest I add vegetables when I can.

All and all, I get the idea like I get the salt all over my hands and clothes. This is a novelty so get it before it's gone. 
 

Megatoys Happy Easter Gift Set

Megatoys Happy Easter Gift is the kind of thing that makes you look around for the company name because it’s half air made to look big and almost no Easter gifts. There is almost no Easter branding in this save for the mug and the shape of the orange cream taffy.

 

Oroweat Schwarzwalder Rye Bread

Oroweat Schwarzwalder Rye Bread has a mild flavor and soft texture for rye. I would have expected a courser bread than this but then why does one want a bread to be so full of flavor? I had this with smoked gouda and it was overwhelmed.

As bread goes this is more to look at than to eat and I think it adds something to the meal that way. I mean, people will say “look, he eats fancy bread” as you pull this out of your lunch bag at work.

 

McDonald's Super Mario Galaxy Meal Toy

 The McDonald's Super Mario Galaxy Meal Toy is a funny looking thing. I mean, this is Mario and he comes with that star thing you can hook on stuff. It would come off if you hook it on a bag.

I don't know how you would even play with this toy but I guess if you like Mario then you got a Mario. I would be disappointed with this but a toy is a toy to kids if they are dumb enough.  

Waba Grill Dragonfruit Mango Lemonade

I’ve been meaning to get my hands on the Dragonfruit Mango Lemonade from Waba Grill for some time now and now that I’ve tried it I have to say there isn’t much to it. I would never have guessed that this was supposed to be lemonade. I couldn’t tell you when I last had lemonade but this tastes nothing like lemonade.

Dragonfruit hasn’t much of a flavor and in fact is more fun than flavorful in any dish. The flesh of the fruit looks kind of like ice cream and so makes a great eye catching desert. Why you would juce this to start with I have no idea but it adds little to the overall drink.

Fail, ice tea would be better… only ice tea from Waba sucks too.

 

7-Select Cinnamon Sugar Mini Donut

 7-Select Cinnamon Sugar Mini Donuts at 7-Eleven are the kind of things you shouldn't eat in your car. They fall apart and the crumbs get everywhere. 

They are a light and mild flavor and I do think they're interesting. I wish I had coffee when I ate them. 

I'd get them again but I'm fat.
