Annie's Bunny Grahams - Neapolitan

Hmm. My first reaction upon opening the box was "oh no", because the strawberry scent is powerful. And the artificial smelling strawberry clashes with my idea of Annie's grahams. So at first I didn't like that flavor (though it's accurate, like strawberry ice cream) and I only liked the chocolate ones, which are a regular chocolate flavor. The vanilla is the majority of them, and those are OK but not my favorite. But ho! The strawberry ones grew on me, and they're the least common so I kind of liked those in the end. I still don't quite know how I feel about the mix, though. It's a lot -- maybe too much for this bunny.

Original Donut Shop Regular Medium Roast kcups

Would you believe I'm still sick? It's been almost 2 weeks at this point! I'm taking so much care of myself, and yet! Anyway, this isn't the best donut-related kcup line, let's just say that (I miss you Dunkin'). It's plain coffee, no harm no foul, and I had it iced, but it tasted a little worse than some of the other plain iced kcups I've had lately. So, a big "meh" from me.

Swiss Miss - Milk Chocolate Flavor Hot Cocoa Mix

I got a random packet of this, but it had no nut allergens, so to sip I supped! It was tasty, even though I just used water. Filling, warm, sweet, and creamy. Probably not super healthy, but a lovely winter treat for a cold little me.

Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Holiday Blend kcup

Another safe k-cup for the pile! This is ostensibly just cofe, no flavors added. It tastes fine. I had it hot with milk, and it was pleasant. Instead of holiday vibes, I got more "dark roast" vibes (even though this is medium roast), but that's just fine.

Tostitos Holiday Trees

These taste just the same as non-red-tree tostitos. They are plain corn chips, no flavoring. I don't like that especially much. But they are shaped like cute little christmas trees ("holiday trees") and they are bright red from beet powder. I do like that. Is it worth 5$? Maybe at the holidays it is. Easy to dip, too.

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.

Dunkin' Holiday Blend

Oh Dunkin', you're the only sweet thing in my life. This is cute packaging, but I must say, there are a lot of very similar flavors of Dunkin' k cup. This one is like a slightly less dark dark roast, so, I like it. It's good with milk and works hot or cold. Would celebrate again.
