Enchilada Adobada Pringles

Despite the fancy name (adobada means 'marinated'!) these are pretty unremarkable tasting. Just very plain "lightly spiced" chip, with a wee spicy aftertaste. OK but not exciting.

Annie's Bunny Grahams - Birthday Cake

Annie's seems like they're on a bit of a marketing tear, since I'm seeing their stuff all over. I like most of it, though! These were better than expected: I usually don't like birthday cake flavored things, but luckily these really just tasted like vanilla flavored graham cookies. A good little snack.

Tostitos Mexican Style Three Cheese Chips

Alas, these chips are cursed with tasting bad, and I am cursed with having bought them. I had pretty high hopes since I like cheese and the other powdered tostitos circles were solid. But these had a kind of sour, rancid taste. Is one of the three cheeses Cottage? Or Cream? Bleu?! It's certainly not a mexican-three-cheese vibe I'm getting here. Far more tanginess than I expected. The salsa doesn't even help really.

Create a Treat Oreo Heart Cookie Kit

Happy Valentine's Day, have some bad cookies!I'd rather just have some Oreos, sadly. The icing here was bad and chemical-tasting, not like oreo filling at all, and the heart cookies were hard and tasteless. The bag of mini oreos was the best part! Overall, this was bad, but at least it was nut free.

Dean's Sweets - (A Fluffle of) Mini Bunnies

Well these guys are just adorable. They're partially hollow inside, which makes 'em easy to bite, and of course they're very cute. At a perfect snack size, it's safe to say I love these bunnies.

Cost: 4/10
Taste: 7/10 (dark choco)

Sausage Toaster Scrambles

Oh boy. I bought this because they were on sale, but it's no wonder why they were: they are not good. In their defense, mine were about a week past expiry, but since they're frozen I figure it shouldn't have a big impact. Especially since the biggest flaw is that these are essentially just sweet pastry dough with like .0001mm of cheese-goo and maybe a tiny sausage orb. Certainly no egg to speak of. Also, it was cold inside, so do 2 toaster cycles on at least medium heat. Very weird. I do hate sweet/savory mixing, though, so if you don't mind toaster strudel mixing with your "sausage", maybe you won't hate these.

Fruity Pebbles Crunch'd Cereal

I like fruity pebbles, but the biggest downside IS that they become very mushy, so this is a good idea in theory. They are cute and do have a good crunch, but they also smell kind of weird -- like easter candy or something. If I ignore this, the taste is basically fruity pebble, but I didn't realise how essential the tiny mush texture was to the ethos of fruity pebbles, since this is a very different cereal experience. Not bad though. I'm not 100% sure which I prefer, but I think it's the OG.
