Healthy Hippo – Low Sugar Swedish Hippos
Don’t be fooled by my taste and interest in weird, esoteric things. Yes, many may think I’m a hipster because of my preferences, but I like popular and common things too. Swedish Berries for one,…
Smartfood – Movie Night Butter
Smartfood has pretty good brand cache, as the kids call it. At least in the Frigid North, it’s the go to brand when we think of prepackaged popcorn that’s easily accessible and basically everywhere. In…
