Meiji. White Chocolate Strawberry Ice Cream Bar Review.

 

I've done one other review from this brand (search it on my blog) and today I'm trying the white chocolate strawberry ice cream bar. (Sorry I lost the photo of the cross-section but the inside is strawberry ice cream with strawberry pieces, like the pieces on the outside.)

This bar is delicious, it's now one of my all-time favourite ice cream. The white chocolate shell has a good flavour, it's great in texture and not too thick like some other brands of bars and the white chocolate pairs great with the strawberry ice cream and pieces. The strawberry ice cream and pieces have a great fruity and fresh flavour that have a good amount of sweetness and are not too tart. This is a great flavour combination and overall a a delicious bar, this bar is up there with the strawberry shortcake crunch. I of course would buy these and eat them again and I rate them 5/5.

Midnight Snack. Swedish Candy Review.

 

This is my first time trying Swedish candy, this candy has been going viral for a while and I am late to the party but finally found a place near me that does them. I got a mixed bag but sadly it didn't contain the sour strawberry bites I wanted to try, they do sell those buy in bags on their own and for the price I wasn't sure if I was ready to commit to a whole bag, in case I didn't like them but I might grab them anyway next time I'm over there.

Blue tube: it was salty yet sugary, tasted like chemicals and froot loops, tough with too firm of a texture and it was not nice to bite .5/5.

Brown and yellow Bubs: it was like a marshmallow but more foamy, firm and spongy and tasted like the chocolate banana marshmallows from Dare 3.5/5.

Mushrooms: it had a nice foamy marshmallow texture but more marshmallow than the Bubs, it tastes like cotton candy and bubblegum and I really liked it despite not being much of a bubblegum person 4/5.

Red and yellow skull: it was like a gummy meets taffy texture, it's a bit sour and the flavour is like a raspberry lemonade but the lemon is a bit like cleaner, like chemicals but not too bad 3/5.

Pink Bubs: it was bubble gum, with a fine texture, the same as the previous Bubs foamy, firm and spongey 3/5.

Rose gummy: It tasted like rose hand soap but not too bad surpassingly, texturally it was nice and soft and juicy 3/5.

Brownish yellow Bubs: It was sour at first then not sour, tasted almost like root beer with lemon 3/5.

Light greenish blue Bubs: It tasted like foam sunscreen, with the texture being foamy as the other Bubs and that made the flavour even worse, as you think you're eating sunscreen, it was awful 0/5.

Orange and green Bubs: It was apple or strawberry, meets maybe orange, with a nice texture, chewy but a bit squishy and soft 3.5/5.

Pink and blue skull: It was tangy, a little sour and the flavour was cotton candy and bubble gum, I enjoyed the flavour and it had a nice texture, a bit foamy and soft, like the other skull and I really liked it 4/5.

Dave's Hot Chicken. Chicken Slider and Fries Review.

This is my first and probably last time trying Dave's Hot Chicken. It was like a nightclub in the restaurant, with quite loud music but a lot of throwback club hits, from my youth which was pretty cool. (Sorry I realized the photo of the sandwich bitten, does not look good, does not show off the chicken sandwich properly, I should've eaten half before taking a photo.)

I got the slider and fries, it didn't even come with a drink, we had to order drinks separately and for two of us to eat and each get a small pop it was quite expensive. I was able to try the no spice chicken and the lite mild chicken.

The fries were almost pub style, a little over seasoned some of them but had a nice flavour and bite to them and they were rather crispy. I felt they were pretty good but I wasn't wowed and felt they didn't need seasoning 3.5/5.

The sauce on the side and on the slider, is like a burger sauce but more sweet and I was unsure if it tasted more mustardy or ketchupy and almost vinegary and the sauce was thinner. I don't think the sauce goes with the seasoning on the fries but fine on the slider, overall I wasn't a fan 2.5/5.

The no spice chicken I didn't really enjoy, it's kinda boring and in the breading something was odd about it, that I felt didn't taste great, this though was not too much different than a frozen breaded chicken but the chicken quality I would say was a bit better and the portion was greater but not much different 3.5/5.

Lastly the lite mild chicken, I felt the chicken needed this spice, it was better but still I wasn't wowed, you can barely taste the chicken it's mostly breading and seasoning you taste but I did think the lite mild had a nice kick 3.5/5. 

I think I could personally handle the mild but I don't think the lite mild was a bad choice. I also wanted to note that the buns are not completely cut, they are hinged and I did not like that and found myself ripping the top part off, to place on top, as the sandwiches did not nicely close and the no spice chicken was a bigger piece than the other. I also found that the kale slaw on the sandwiches made the bottom bun a big soggy, I did not even care for nor really taste the slaw, I would've preferred regular coleslaw or none at all.

I think you can find similar or better food for a cheaper price at other restaurants, this one did not stand out from the rest.

Kraft Dinner Ramen. Extra Cheesy. Cheesy Ramen Review.

 

I've done a few reviews from this brand (search them on my blog) and today I'm trying the extra cheesy ramen. I also do have the medium spice one to try next time for review.

It's rough, it's a sticky greasy glob of ramen with powdered cheese and instant ramen seasoning, I feel these flavours don't go together and of course it is very salty. Overall an unpleasant experience and I would not buy or eat it again and I rate it 1.5/5.

MomChipz. Sweet Potato Chips Review.

 

This is my first time trying this brand of veggie chips, this is the sweet potato chips.

I did not enjoy the flavour of the purple ones, they were a bit strange but the other two were fine, overall I wasn't a fan of any of them and I much prefer sweet potato in mashed or fry form. I would not buy them or eat them again and I rate them 2.5/5.

El Jefe. Wild Mango Energy Drink Review.

 

This is my first review from this brand, I got the wild mango. I love the can, it's so cool, I think the branding is awesome.

This tastes of a good mango but a bit more rich and more grown-up than regular mango, unlike anything I've had before, I don't love it but it is fairly good. I don't think I'd buy it again but I'd considering drinking it if offered and I rate it 3.5/5.

Nerds. Spooky Gummy Clusters Candy Review.

 

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

These are quite tart, they are grape and orange, the flavour is juicy and nice, I just don't love them, as I do not gravitate to either purple grape or orange flavours but I rate them 3.5/5.
