Russell Stover Coconut Cream in Dark Chocolate

If spitting out some white stuff is what you want for Easter then Russell Stover Coconut Cream in Dark Chocolate are your bag. I have to admit they taste fine but the coconut is not all that great and if you eat enough of these you wind up with coconut that you don't want to eat in your mouth. 

I like the fact that these are wrapped so that you can eat them over time without worrying about them getting stale. Stile, they are a take it or leave it kind of thing.

Chocolove Toffee & Almonds in Milk Chocolate


 Chocolove Toffee & Almonds in Milk Chocolate is some of that elevated chocolate that's not as rich as Hershey's, but has a more complex flavor. You pay more for these and that's fine because I shouldn't be eating them in the first place. 

You more buy these for conservation reasons than you do for the love of junk food. They are Rainforest Alliance after all. You are guaranteed that this chocolate supports a better future. I do prefer my chocolate to be cruelty free and good for the environment. 

I don't need chocolate, I shouldn't buy chocolate, but this is good person chocolate.

Portofino Solid Yellowfin Tuna in Extra Virgin Olive Oil


 I'm not really a tuna guy. I tend to buy it to give to the cats on a good day but this Portofino Solid Yellowfin Tuna in Extra Virgin Olive Oil is so good that I end up sharing it with my furry army.

I like to get a can of this and a spoon and eat a few bites before giving the rest to my cats who swarm over it until only the smell is left. Then I have tuna breath but my cats are where I want them to be and not running around the house when I'm working. 

I got to get more of this stuff. The cats and I just love it.

Litaly Sundried Tomatoes in Olive Oil


 Litaly Sundried Tomatoes in Olive Oil are one of those things I would think that I wouldn't like, but then I tried them and I do like them which is funny. I will admit that I don't like all that oil because it gets everywhere, but you can use it for cooking.

I used to live with a man who really loved these and we would decant the oil into another jar then use it as oil for cooking. 

All in all, I love these things and will buy them again.

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!

Beach Cliff Sardines in Soybean Oil

Beach Cliff Sardines in Soybean Oil where a thing I got to feed my cats on the day my foster animals went home. I found these surprisingly edible. I mean, I wouldn't go about eating them because of how bad they would make my breath. Still, they didn't make me wont to get sick so win in that regard. 

How can not nasty be a good review? Well, have you ever eaten cat food? No! Why would you do that?

Great Value Wild Caught Sardines in Oil

Two cans of 'Great Value Wild Caught Sardines in Oil' showed up in a bag of cat food someone gave me and I decided to save them to celebrate a foster cat going home. I had one going home so my brother and I, and all the cats, tried these things. 

They didn't taste that bad. I mean, I wouldn't go looking for them but they weren't bad at all. The cats were mostly impressed but old Jack said he would rather eat the barf of another cat ... he eats the barf of another cat all the time. 

Great Value Brand sardines aren't that fishy.

RC Burgers in South Gate Fried Zucchini

RC Burgers in South Gate Fried Zucchini is, as is most fried zucchini, a thing to dip in ranch. I can't say much else for it, but it did go well with ranch.

RC Burgers in South Gate Onion Rings

As you can see Onion Rings at RC Burgers in South Gate are the flaky kind. Everyone like their onion rings a little different. Me, I like them best where the onion is part of the ring and so cannot be separated. 

If you likes most onion rings these are a winner for you. Me, I've had better.

RC Burgers in South Gate French Fries

I took a trip to South Gate California for work and figured on getting some local color. So I stopped at the local RC Burger. I'm kind of sure this is a common name referring to a number of non related burger establishments, but I got shrimp anyway.

Well, my shrimp came with a mountain of french fries and me being me ate the lot of them. It was hard, but I'm willing to suffer for my art.  

They are a bit salty but perfectly fine otherwise.

RC Burgers in South Gate Dinner Roll

On my last trip to RC Burgers in South Gate I got the Shrimp Basket and it was topped with this dinner roll. Is it much to talk about? No, but I have to review things so I'm reviewing this. Once you're so stuffed that you can't eat any more you can take this one and eat it about half an hour later, because that's how people work. 

Anyway, Good stuff.
