Idahoan. Four Cheese Mashed Potatoes Review.

 

I've had a few items from this brand but this is my first review, this is the four cheese mashed potatoes.

These my favourite instant mashed, which is funny since I don't really like any of the other ones I've had, from this brand or other brands. This is cheesy, creamy and potatoy, it's smooth and has a nice flavour. It would be great for a homemade KFC bowl which I like making. I would buy it and eat it again and I rate it 4/5.

Stacked. Mexican Omelet Review.

 

I've done a few reviews from this restaurant (search them on my blog) and today I'm trying the Mexican omelet. I actually ordered something else but this is what arrived and I do not like avocado so I had to take it off the top, as it would not make for a fair review. The Mexican omelet is: sausage, peppers, onions, mozzarella, buffalo sauce, smashed avocado & pico salsa.

This was actually quite good, everything tasted good, had nice textures and bites to the egg and vegetables but I did not taste any sausage. I was unsure about the buffalo sauce, as I'm not usually a buffalo person but it had a nice spice and bold flavour to it and went with with the other toppings. I did feel the omelet needed salt and pepper though. I would consider buying it and eating it again and I rate it 4/5.

Kraft Dinner. Rich White Cheddar Mac and Cheese Review.

 

I've done quite a few reviews from this brand (search them on my blog) and today I'm trying the new rich white cheddar, it's their regular cheddar but more rich and creamy.

The pasta was too soft and it was off-putting, I think 8 minutes would've been better but otherwise it was okay. The flavour was fine but kinda boring, I've had other white mac and cheese that I preferred, it was hard to enjoy this as the pasta became almost mush, even just simply following the box. I would not likely buy it or eat it again and I rate it 3/5.

Three Sisters. Cookies n Cream Ice Cream Cake Review.

 

It's been years since my last ice cream cake, I bought this to celebrate something and this cookies n cream ice cream cake cost me $28. As you can see by the second last photo, there are bits of ice stuck to the top of the cake, it froze weird in my freezer I guess.

I don't like the topping it doesn't taste good, like some funky whipped cream with an unpleasant flavour, I ended up taking the top off my slice. The ice cream was pretty good and smooth but it barely tasted like cookie. The crust was fine but a bit too crumbly and made a mess when I opened the cake and while being cut. Overall this cake was just fine, I'd think it was worth the price if it tasted better, as size alone is not enough to justify the price. I would not buy it again but maybe eat it if offered and I rate it 3.5/5.

Gorilla Mind. Candy Apple Energy Drink Review.

I've done one other review for this brand (search it on my blog) and today I'm trying the candy apple flavour.

I felt this fake candy apple taste was a bit too chemical and tart but it was overall not a bad flavour, I liked it AND didn't like it but I wish it was caramel apple instead. I would not likely buy it or drink it again and I rate it 3/5.

Chef Bombay. Chicken Biryani Review.

 

I've done a few reviews from this brand (search them on my blog) and today I'm trying the chicken biryani.

This is the biggest I've ever seen frozen meal chicken, some of the pieces were larger than my spoon and it was great but the bigger pieces were a little tougher and more dry. I kinda enjoyed this dish but it was a bit too spicy for me and there is an ingredient in the sauce I'm not a fan of, I also found the sauce gritty. I would not buy it again but I'd maybe eat it if offered and I rate it 3.5/5. Update: my stomach was a little angry but as I suspected going into it.

Arby's. Jalapeno Popper Review.

 

I've done many reviews from this restaurant (search them on my blog) and today I'm trying their jalapeno poppers, this is my first time trying a jalapeno popper. Today I discovered red jalapenos, I had only ever had green ones, so this was a learning experience for me.

I have eaten jalapenos before, so I was nervous going into it, as I find it often too spicy and sure my tongue is numb but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be or that I've had prior. I don't love the texture of the filling, I found it was a bit too gooey for my personal preference but it had a nice seasoned and creamy flavour, like a jalapeno dip. The breading was great, thick enough, nice crunch, held up well (as a lot of breaded veggies struggle to keep the breading on) and the flavour was also nice with not a bad amount of fried taste. I would not buy them again as I didn't love them but I would likely eat them again if offered and I rate them 3.5/5.

Update: my stomach did not like them, my stomach is very angry the day of and the following day, so I would not eat them again if offered, as they were not good enough to be worth doing again.
