Go Bio! – Organic Wine Gums
As much as I generally ignore buzz words like organic or “healthy” when it comes to snacking, I will say that it intrigues me. It doesn’t usually inform my purchasing decision though, and realistically the…

Black Thunder – Custard Apple Pie
I haven’t had apple pie in ages. It’s not that I don’t like it, oh quite the contrary. The issue becomes that the variety of apple pie that I crave comes only in a couple…

Spice or heat is not something we are typically used to seeing here in the Frigid North, so I can’t really speak to if this is a relatively new phenomenon, but it’s certainly caught my…
