Snack Review: Pringles Spicy Guacamole

First of all, I just want to make it known that I really really don’t like guacamole. Every time I’m in a restaurant and an entrée comes with guacamole, I immediately ask for it to be made without this green goop while I am placing my order.

I don’t know what it is about guacamole that I don’t like, because really, I’m not sure that I’ve ever tried it. If I had to guess, it would be the appearance of it that turns me off. Even thinking about guacamole makes me shiver.

Which is why I decided to review Pringles Spicy Guacamole. I needed to get over my fear of this food and figured that eating it mixed in with a chip was a good way to start.

Upon lifting the inner seal, I was struck with something that smelled like sour cream and onion, but grosser. I can’t really describe the smell because I was heaving on the inside just thinking about eating one of these.

The color of the Pringles chip was the exact same color as guacamole; I guess they needed it to be realistic. Finally, I decided to put one of these in my mouth after much consideration. I popped it in, closed my eyes and chewed quickly.

Snack Review: Gatorade Peanut Butter Nutrition Bar

I’m a person who’s always on a diet. Well, I try to be on one. That’s why I have no problem always eating these diet bars that people claim taste so bad. For me, I’ve been eating them for so long that they taste pretty good.

I decided to go a different route and try one of these energy bars that everyone is talking about; the Gatorade Nutrition Bar. The one I decided to try was peanut butter flavored.

I’m not really big into energy bars, because I’ve seen some of them and can’t understand why anyone would put that in their stomach, but then again, people probably think the same of me when I eat a diet bar.

Snack Review: Burger King Ketchup & Fries Potato Snacks

I saw these in the store and thought these would be cool to try. So, I stuck them in my cupboard for safekeeping yet whenever I opened it to find something to eat, I always passed these by thinking I wasn’t in the mood for them. I mean, come on, ketchup and fries chips? I wasn’t ready for that yet.

So one day I sucked it up and decided to open up the bag and finally try these out… before they ended up expiring in my cupboard.

When I first opened the bag, there was an overwhelming smell of ketchup. I like ketchup just as much as the next person, but this didn’t make me want to try these chips any faster.

As for the look, they kind of look like flat french fries with a reddish-orange tint to them. I seriously think I was dreading putting one of these things in my mouth. I held it up to my nose and was again blown away by the strong smell of ketchup.

Snack Review: LesserEvil Snacks

As an obsessed snacker, I am constantly trying to control my habit by eating some of the healthier snacks. Although it doesn’t always work out this way, at least I can say I try.

Let me start off by saying that I’m used to eating ‘diet’ foods while people around me wonder why I could put something that tastes like cardboard into my mouth. I don’t taste the nastiness they describe, so I’m oblivious to the fact that some of the things I eat wouldn’t even excite my dog.

However, I recently had a chance to try out LesserEvil snacks and was pleasantly surprised.

Snack Review: Kraft Bagel-fuls

Bagel-fuls are toasty warm bagels with a cream cheese filling inside. I tried the brown sugar and cinnamon bagel with cinnamon cream cheese inside. Sounds yummy, right?

After zapping it in the microwave for 15 seconds, I immediately wanted to bite into it and when I did, the outside tasted just like a soft chewy bagel. As for the cream cheese inside, the texture was creamy, but I couldn’t really taste it, so my thoughts are that it should be a little stronger tasting, or possibly have more cream cheese in it.
