The combination of pineapple and coconut is one of my best-loved combinations. I was so excited to see that Haagen-Dazs made it into an ice cream. In my opinion it’s hard to beat fresh, fruity and slightly sour pineapple mixed with creamy and rich coconut.

Ok, I’m not sure if it’s because the people working at our local pizza hut are a bunch of idiots or if the commercials lie about how great the new Panormis Pizza is. But, whichever the case, I’m seriously disappointed in it.
When my wife and I saw the commercials …

I do not really care all that much for these Entenmann’s Apple Puffs. The reason I do not care for them too much is because they are pretty bland. The apple flavor is barely reminiscent of what real apples taste like. I do not know if they simply did …
