My little brother would appreciate the hot ones haha. For these ones, I loved them so did the rest of the family haha, it wasn't too hard to chew and the flavour was great :D I'm looking forward to trying the hot ones :D. I rate them 4/5.

Grama's Kitchen. Waffles Review.
This was my first time having waffles from Angel's Diner. I wanted their special it was strawberries bananas and nutella...but I didnt want the nutella. I asked if I could get it without nutella and the woman went to the back and came back to say no, so I asked if I could get it with just strawberries, I upgraded to real maple syrup for a dollar. I ended up getting the waffle I wanted but with such a small small small amount of strawberries I was annoyed by it. Sigh. Legit and the fact they charged 2 bucks for this small amount of strawberries....SMH!
SO....let's talk flavour, I LOVED IT! Probably my favourite waffles! I loved the taste of the waffle, the strawberries were fresh, the powdered sugar was perfect and who can go wrong with real maple syrup?! I loved it!! I rate it 4.5/5. I would get the waffle again but hope for more strawberries or another waffle on their menu....maybe I would go mixed fruit waffle haha. I should've. Sigh.

Williams Fresh Cafe. Turkey, Apple & Cheddar Sandwich Review.
Soooo I decided to try out an item I haven't yet from Williams. I decided on this sandwich turkey, apple and cheddar I thought it would be a great combo....WRONG! Lol! I felt it could've been good, the cheddar sticking out the back was stiff and hard, they used green apples which didn't go well with the sandwich, I didn't care for the cranberry sauce as it didn't work well with the apple choice or the bread, I didn't care for the bread either. SOMETHING was really off about this sandwich, I struggled to finish it and if you know me I LOVE FOOD and if I don't finish or don't want to finish it, something is very wrong. I would never get this again, especially for almost 9 FUCKING DOLLARS. The turkey was good and I didn't mind the greens haha I also loved the pickle on the side XD. The size of the sandwich was SAD for the price, esp since the sandwich was alone...no side, no drink...nothing. I rate it 2/5.
Oh Henry! Honey Roasted Peanuts Review.
So there was a limited edition Oh Henry with honey roasted peanuts :D! It was only 88 cents so I said ehhh why not? Lol. I felt the flavour of course was different and I missed the traditional peanut flavour but I found with the honey roasted ones, this was easier to eat and I didnt crack or chip any teeth :D yay lol! I would eat it if offered to me but I dont think I would get it again, I rate it 3/5.
