Newman's Own Organics - Newman's Special Blend k-cups

Ugh, I've been sick for like a week with no signs of improvement, so I'm in a bit of a mood. My mom got me a bunch of random k-cups as a gift, but it honestly feels like a burden because I have to track down the allergy info online and I don't feel confident about any of them but I'll feel guilty if I don't drink them, and I don't even like them anyway, I like Dunkin'! I feel I've been very clear and up front about liking Dunkin. Ahem. Anyway, putting my food and gift issues aside (ha, as if), this was fine. I had it over ice and it tasted like a normal iced kcup coffee. Just with added stress. But I didn't die, so, cool, I guess.

Cost: 5/10

Newman's Own Mushroom Trio Pizza (pre-flax)

Alas, friends, this was on super sale because apparently now it comes with a "multigrain crust" full of flax, and I got a pre-flax one (at least according to the ingredients on the box). So I can never get it again! I also accidentally bought a flax one that I have to throw out since none of my friends want a flax frozen pizza. Lol. But I digress; this one was good for a frozen pizza -- not super oily or fatty, and no tomato sauce to make things disguistingly sweet. The mushrooms were a little wet, and the crust was kind of boring (but a good texture), but I thought the overall taste sensation was positive. Kind of like a restaurant flatbread, but less buttery (which is a good thing!).

Cost: 7/10 [2.50!]

Newman's Own Organics - Butter Popcorn

This was fine. No major issues, pops well and no nuts that I know of. The taste isn't very salty or buttery, but it does leave a weird fake butter film on your tongue. So, I don't like that. Makes you feel kinda bad without tasting good. Filling, though! Would eat only if no other popcorns or snacks were around, I think. Sorry Pauly.

Newman's Own - Harvest Vegetable Thin & Crispy Pizza

Doesn't this guy make salad dressings? But whatever, I was in a pizza mood and I wanted one with veg on it. I'm not totally sure if mushroom and pepper really counts as veg, but it's the best I could do in the frozen pizza aisle. Plus, only 270 * 3 calories, which is decent for a pizza of this size. You know the crust will be thin, but I don't have any problem with that, since most frozen pizza crust is terrible. Anyway, this was solid! The mushrooms were a little watery, and it wasn't like, amazing, but I enjoyed it plenty and would definitely pick it up again. No weird meat feelings, sauce was minimal and unobtrusive, and cheese seemed decent. Nice.

Newman's Own Pizza - White

This pizza was mostly good, and a little bit nothing. It wasn't very pizza like. I mean, I ate the whole darn thing and I was only moderately full. Now MAYBE that says more about me than about the pizza, but what I'm saying is, it was like a flat bread circle with thin layers of white sauce and feta/spinach chunks. It was a good flavor, I think, and I guess it was better than a regular old from pizza (which I typically think are gross) but. . . it wasn't very satisfying. I don't think I'd get this again.
