Blue Bunny Raspberry Vanilla Aspen Frozen Yogurt Granola Bars did not taste quite as good as I had hoped that they would.

The thing I …

This type of pocky is one of those icing-type pocky where there’s a thick layer of icing around the biscuit stick. Even though it is piesnow flavor, i personally don’t think it tastes like piesnow at all, but like any other conventional icing-type pocky. You’re not getting what you’re …

I am a fan of popcorn, I am a fan of kettle corn. Kettle corn is great because it provides the best of both worlds: sweetness and saltiness, all in a single kernel of popcorn. It is a great tasting snack, and one which I really enjoy.

Sometimes generic or store-brand products are just as good, if not better, than the big name brands. This is the case with Jewel brand Ginger Ale, which is sold at all Jewel-Osco grocery stores in both two-liter bottles and 12-packs. Just yesterday, I compared the price os …
