Review Review: Beecher's 'World's Best' Mac & Cheese We picked up this frozen box of mac & cheese for just under $20! It claims to be the "World's Best." The Beecher website lists all the awards it has won: * 2023 Daily Mail, #1 Best Frozen Mac & Cheese * 2023 Tasting Table, Best Frozen Mac
Review Review: Cheetos Mac 'N Cheese I prepared a box of Cheetos Mac 'N Cheese to see how it compares to Kraft's. It did taste and smell like Cheetos. I ground up some actual Cheetos to drop on top of it also. I liked it. Not quite as good as Kraft but it
McNugget McNugget Shapes Have Names I have always known that McNuggets only come in 4 shapes. Recently I got a 4 pack of McNuggets and got a bonus 5th nugget. Jim Gaffigan talks about God giving bonus fries. But a bonus nugget? Amazing! Its shape looked non-standard though. It was more of a sphere than
Bundt Cakes Maximizing Your Bundt Cake Value Nothing Bundt Cakes is the best bakery for desserts. They are better than $4 cookies or $6 cupcakes. But how can you maximize your money to get the most Bundt cake? Bundtini - 57 grams - 26 grams per dollar - $2.16 (but you have to buy 12 at
Review Review: Peep Fruit Punch These are probably the worst of the three that I tried pre-Easter. They smell like one of those little car fresheners you hang from your rear view mirror. Review: 0/3
Review Review: Peep Cotton Candy I bought these and then wondered what flavor is cotton candy anyway? The internet says it is strawberry. I asked Kari and she guessed strawberry. So that must be it. They did taste like cotton candy. But not very good and not as good a plain peep. Review: 4/10
Review Review: Peep Party Cake I tried more of the new flavors of Peeps. This one was cake flavored. They didn't particularly taste much like cake. They were actually the worst of the new Peep flavors I have tried. Rating: 2/10
Food Sous Vide Tritip I cooked with my sous vide cooker for the first time. I cooked a 2.5 pound tritip that was in a marinade from the grocery store. It came in a sealed bag so I just put the whole sealed bag in the sous vide bath. I cooked it at
Review Review: Olipop I was in Gelson's and the Olipop cans caught my eye so I tried three of them. Vintage Cola: Awful. Tasted like a horrible diet soda. Could not finish more than a few sips. 2/10. Classic Root Beer: Almost as bad as vintage cola. Had a few
Review Review: Hamburger Habit Ahi Tuna Filet Habit claims their Ahi Tuna Filet is 390 calories. And the photo on the menu board looked pretty good so I gave it a try. This thing is really, really good. The tuna was cooked just about perfectly done. The shredded lettuce and mayo and tomato were perfect. This is
Food Cup Noodles?? Recently Cal was telling a story about how we were stuck in the cabin in Montana in June 2022 during a snowstorm and couldn't drive away because all we had was a minivan without 4 wheel drive. So he explained that we had to eat whatever we had
Review Review: Nerds Candy Corn I like Nerds Rope and Nerds and Nerds and Big Chew Nerds. I also like Candy Corn. But Nerds Candy Corn is terrible. 1/5
Review Review: Costco full size candy pack ripoff We don't have many trick-or-treaters so we bought a full size candy assortment package from Costco. Some peanut M&Ms were left over so I grabbed a pack. It definitely felt lighter than a full size package should feel so I did some measuring. The scale shows
Review Review: Which Wich Cloud Bread When I was ordering my Wicked Wednesday sandwich from the Which Wich app (which is now $6 instead of $5) I was offered Cloud Bread. I had no idea what it was but decided to try it. When checking out I saw the $6 sandwich was now $7.50. But
Food Review: Chic-fil-a autumn shake Recently a missionary told me that he was told that drinking this shake is "like being on a date with a pretty girl." I don't think it lived up to the hype. Tastes like drinking a shake with some cookies inside.
Food Review: Christmas Peeps I remember reading that the Peeps company was expanding into different holidays besides Easter. I tried the Gingerbread and Christmas Tree peeps. The Gingerbread peeps were really good. Instead of plain sugar on the marshmallow it tasted a bit like cinnamon and tasted like Christmas. The Christmas trees were a
Food Review: Bob Ross Positive Energy Drink This one actually seems worse than the fun dip. A Bob Ross canned drink. It is called a "positive energy" drink. It didn't taste particularly great. My mood was a bit positive though. But that good mood might have been because I was driving down the
Food Bear Paws for Shredding Pork These bear paws are an essential tool for shredding slow cooked pork. I have also tried some with skinnier all metal "fingers" but they don't work nearly as well.
Food Givebutter 100% Transparency At a local high school football game the snack bar had an option to pay with Apple Pay. I chose that option and scanned a QR code on my phone and was taken to a site where I then put in the total for my transaction and could check out.
Food Review: Bobs Ross Flavor Palette I picked this up while in line at Michael's. It seemed a little unsavory to use the deceased Bob Ross to sell a Fun-Dip ripoff. But I like Bob Ross and Fun-Dip so I gave it a try. The colors / flavors are not very creative. What about Prussian
Food Modern Apizza Between Bar, Pepe's, and Modern Apizza in New Haven I believe Modern has the best pizza.
Food Pepe's Pizza in New Haven Pepe's claims to be one of the first pizza spots in the USA. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and the pizza is great. But Bar in New Haven has a better thin crust pizza in my opinion.
Food Birch Beer I had never heard of Birch Beer. At a pizza place in New Haven the waitress offered it to me and couldn't believe I had never heard of it. It is basically root beer but it is clear like sprite.
