Orange Chicken (from The Cheesecake Factory)
I was a bit reluctant to order this dish. The description in the menu explains that the chicken breast is diced, seasoning, deep-fried, and then tossed in a spicy/sweet orange sauce. It is served with steamed white rice on a bed of crunchy vegetables. …

Old Samuel Bourbon
What do you want from a drink? That is an alcoholic drink, of course. Let us assume that it has the punch you require. If it doesn’t, then there’s something wrong. After all, 40% proof must mean that it has a certain amount of oomph to lift you from the …
Jell-o Gelatin - Margarita
Jell-o Gelatin - Margarita is one of the select few gelatin flavors that I simply do not find enjoyable. Everything that a margarita drink is, this gelatin really is not, simply because it cannot be. Unlike many of the other gelatin flavors, which are derived or based off of …

Hershey’s BLISS, Raspberry (chocolate candy)
Hershey’s may be a time-honoured “institution” in the USA, but many chocolate lovers outside the USA know it only by name. And to be honest, their products are often thought to be less “sophisticated” than their European counterparts.
Recently, I had the pleasure of tasting a Hershey’s product for the …
