Jack in the Box Mint Twisted Soda 2025

Last year I tried Jack in the Box Mint Twisted Soda, and I think Jack was trying to insult St. Patrick. I never got that mint and St. Patrick’s Day business, and I never will, but that’s what the world says is a thing and so it is a thing I guess.

Anyway, this was mint and lemon lime soda. It really didn’t go well together, and the milk aspects of the drink I felt did it no service.

I wouldn’t get this again and I wish I could erase it from my memory.

 

Casabella Kind Loofah Scrubby

 Casabella Kind Loofah Scrubby showed up at my local discount store, and I wish I got more before they were gone. These things are long lasting, smell better after long use, and can stand up to some hard scrubbing. I'm more motivated to keep these in good condition. 

In a world chocked with plastic garbage it's nice to find something that is 100% biodegradable and non toxic. I can dump these in my compost. 

These do everything I would want them to. They stand the test of the dishes but won't last till the end of time.

Classica Apple Premium Liquor

Classica Apple Premium Liquor is something you mix into cocktails. I have to admit that this is a little too high brow for me, and I've never used it before, so I had it over ice.

Over ice this gave me a shiver and it wasn't bad. Some would call this a "Girly" drink and it's fine for those who just want lightly flavored soda so they can stay in the party.  

All and all, this isn't going to change your life, but it's a talking point for those who have not had it, and a light drink mixed with soda or ginger ale. 

Waterless Urinal

It’s a urinal that doesn’t toss away water because your piss is water for the most part. I wouldn’t want to clean one, but I’m happy they exist. 

Random Ni-mh Battery of Butt

Back in the day when Ebay was still a big thing I got into the idea of using rechargeable batteries. I was also a big Ebayer at the time and would look just about everything up on that webpage to see if I could get a deal.

These batteries were dirt cheap and a rip-off because dirt would have been just about as useful. The never held a charge, and I shouldn’t have been surprised as they have no brand name and company to complain to when the work like crap.

I think what happened is someone screwed these up and had them tossed then a poor factory worker grabbed them out of the trash.

On the up side they do look brand new after nearly ten years gathering dust in my house, and they did carry a current so if I ran out of batteries I could use them as a cross gap. 

Moral of the story: Never buy something that doesn’t have a company name on it so you have someone to bitch at when it doesn’t work.

Green Coffee

In this case I’m going to say this about green coffee in general rather than the brand. You may remember that at one time this stuff was just a diet fad where green coffee extract was supposed to help you lose weight. Well, as a fat guy I have to say I hoped and was disappointed.  

Now, mind that grinding my own coffee is nothing new to me. I love coffee and some of the better stuff just can’t be found pre-ground. However, green coffee is harder than roasted coffee. It jams your coffee grinder, comes out in big chunks, and makes a mess.

After getting in a bad mood from chewing up my grinder, I actually tasted the stuff. It was nothing like coffee, more like tea, and reminded me of the smell of pealed sticks.

If you’re the kind of person who would buy a good coffee grinder but doesn’t like the flavor of coffee this crap is for you. If you like coffee keep clear.
