Beanitos – Hint of Lime White Bean Chips

Beanitos – Hint of Lime White Bean Chips

Beans are pretty awesome, and while I don’t have them that often, I always think on them fondly. Except re-fried beans – something about that texture just doesn’t do it for me. Pretty much everything…

Tirol Chocolate – Mixed Fruit Jelly

Tirol Chocolate – Mixed Fruit Jelly

I am the occasional enjoyer of fruit in chocolate. I can’t say I’m as thrilled at the concept of fruit flavoured chocolate, but it does intrigue me. Sometimes that’s all it takes to compel me…

Cheeza Crackers – Peppered Double Cheese

Cheeza Crackers – Peppered Double Cheese

While I’m sure they fit the definition of what a cracker constitutes, I tend to think of them more as something else. I can’t quite find a single word to describe it, but it’s along…

Ritter Sport – Vegan Salted Caramel

Ritter Sport – Vegan Salted Caramel

As part of Ritter Sport’s new line of vegan flavours, this one intrigued me quite a bit. Not because I like salted caramel, but I was curious what the brand’s take on a vegan caramel…

Tirol Chocolate – Melon Pan

Tirol Chocolate – Melon Pan

For those who are unfamiliar with what melon pan is, it’s a very popular classic baked good in Japan. It’s called melon pan because the outside of the bun ends up looking somewhat like a…

Ghiradelli – Peppermint Bark

Ghiradelli – Peppermint Bark

Ghiradelli is a chocolate brand that’s been around for quite some time, though truthfully I don’t know too much about them personally. My knowledge of them extends to the fact that they are a historied…

Black Thunder – Hokkaido Melon

Black Thunder – Hokkaido Melon

I’ve had a lot of melon flavoured chocolate in my time, and in a weird way it somehow works. I can’t explain it, but it just works. Maybe it’s the combination of dairy and the…

Frankie’s Organic Clouds – Jalapeno

Frankie’s Organic Clouds – Jalapeno

I don’t want to say that most healthy snacks are inferior or subpar in comparison to the unhealthy ones. That’s not true – but it is definitely harder to find healthy snacks that are not…

Beanitos – Sea Salt Black Bean Chips

Beanitos – Sea Salt Black Bean Chips

I remember once being lectured on what type of foods do well when fried. Simple carbs and starchy foods were described to me as being the ideal ingredient for frying, and I won’t sit here…

Ritter Sport – Vegan Whole Almonds & Quinoa

Ritter Sport – Vegan Whole Almonds & Quinoa

I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t tend to have the best impression of snacks or candies that try to go vegan. Sure, the expectation is that it won’t be as good as…
