Just Crack an Egg - Southwest Style Scramble Kit

Aw, it'd been a while since I had one of these! This is a new flavor to me, but really, they're all pretty similar. As always, it was filling and easy. This one did have weirdly chewy meat bits, though. The taste was definitely "breakfast burrito filling", which I liked, but the texture was pretty weird. 

Overall
Cost: 5/10
Taste: 6/10

Just Crack an Egg - Rustic Scramble

This was decent, I guess it's part of the new 4-flavor expansion of the "Just Crack an Egg" line! I did a crazy thing and added two eggs instead of one to this, because I was hungry, and it worked out fine (i.e. I didn't vom or die). This had a fairly mild light cheese and sausage flavor, perhaps because of the two egg thing, but I enjoyed it.

Just Crack an Egg - Denver Scramble

This is it, squad. My prototypical scramble. Ham, egg, cheesers, pepper, potato, I guess onion. So classic. I wonder if the new Dunkin Bowls will be better or worse than this? Certainly more unhealthy. This clocks in at under 200 calos, which is pretty great. As always, this is super fast/fun/easy to make, and fairly filling considering it's only one egg. This one seemed cheesier than the others, which I enjoy! The cheese and pepperato mix are good, but sadly the ham cubes aren't doing it for me. They aren't offensive, just very processed/a little bit chewy; I'd rather have lil deli ham slices in there or something. Ultimately I don't know that this is worth buying on a regular basis, it's kind of pricy and breakfast food is pretty cheap and easy to make on your own. I'm just so lazy...and it's so fun.... Thank goodness there's still one flavor I haven't tried, though I've never seen it at the store! The holy grail! Stay tuned?

Cost: 5/10 [2.99 + an egg]

Just Crack An Egg - All American Scramble

This is OK, but I'm not wild about the bacon bits, so I like it less than the other flavors. Again, the cooking/"prep" process is super quick and fun, and even though it looked a little wet after cooking, I'm pretty sure that was just the cheese. I like the potato and egg, but the bacon is, well, bacon bits, so it's salty and chewy but not in a fresh and delicious way. The cheese is pretty sharp, which I don't particularly love either. How about American cheese, ham, potatoes, and peppers? Huh? Huh? Maybe a veg too??? n.b. I recently saw a mysterious facebook ad about egg bowls at Dunkin donuts with spinach in them, which would basically be the best thing in the whole world, so I might never get around to trying the other JCAE flavors, but we'll see. Anyway, this is still a quick and protein-rich snackem.

Just Crack an Egg - Ultimate Scramble

I remember when I first saw an ad for these a few months ago, I was intrigued and watched a few video reviews, but I didn't end up buying one because (a) microwave eggs are gross and (b) I could make the same thing myself way cheaper if I wanted to, or just go to Dunkin! But eventually they lured me in to buying one, it's like easy mac for eggs, how fun! Plus, the worst part of all premade/frozen breakfast stuff is always the egg, which is gross and watery and chewy. So even in the microwave, surely a real fresh egg would taste better. And it did! I followed the directions exactly, and the egg firmed up, much to my surprise. It seemed like one egg made a decent amount of egg, which was cool. The cheese/potatoes/peppers/sausage was all good-ish, kind of like you'd expect them to taste (but no worse)! I like the potatoes best and I wish there were more potato, less onion/pepper. Maybe more cheese, less sausage, too, but that's just personal preference. Anyway those are minor ratio quibbles, but this was really quick and easy and fairly fun to make too. It's a lot of packaging, so probably not great for earth, but for a quick breakfast at home (or on the go!) I enjoyed it and I'll probably quick out the other flavors eventually.

Overall
Cost: 5/10 (Like 2-3$, plus you need eggs)
Taste: 7/10
