McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger

The Dairy Queen Chicken Wrap is prepared …
Albertsons Half and Pieces Lightly Salted Cashews

Trader Joes’ O’s
I bought Trader Joe’s O’s as an alternative to Cheerios the last time I was at Trader Joes. The taste and texture of the O’s is as good as Cheerios, and there is no aftertaste, unlike some othe immitations. However, there are far too many O’s that …
