Haribo – Yogurties

Haribo – Yogurties

While my favourite thing about Haribo is that they go all out on the firmness of their gummies, I also appreciate their creativity and propensity to try all sorts of crazy flavours and styles of…

Andy Capp’s – Cheddar Fries

Andy Capp’s – Cheddar Fries

I vaguely recall in my childhood that my family went on one of those guided tours to the US, and one of the memorable spots I can still remember is a science centre. Apart from…

Old Dutch – Rip-L Mexican Chili

Old Dutch – Rip-L Mexican Chili

Mexican chili is certainly…a description. I guess I’m not much of a chili aficionado to know what Mexican implies, but I’m sure there’s some reason behind it. As someone who doesn’t eat much chili, I…

Hi-Chew – VITAMIN C Fruit Mix

Hi-Chew – VITAMIN C Fruit Mix

Tirol Chocolate – Red & White Strawberry

Tirol Chocolate – Red & White Strawberry

Looking back it’s kind of crazy to see how many different strawberry based flavours of Tirol I’ve done a review for. There really is just that many of them. It’s even crazier when I think…

Ritter Sport – Dark Whole Almonds

Ritter Sport – Dark Whole Almonds

I’ve mentioned before that if anything is to be covered by chocolates, nuts are the safe choice. Well, other than cashews. When I think Ritter Sport, I think of a chocolate that is going to…

Red Vines – Original Red Jumbo Twists

Red Vines – Original Red Jumbo Twists

As someone who lives in the frigid North, I often heard of the legend of Red Vines, but rarely if ever got the chance to try them. It seems like it wasn’t until very recently…

Wild Coast Fruit – Dark Chocolate Cranberries

Wild Coast Fruit – Dark Chocolate Cranberries

I love chocolate covered nuts. Well, except for cashews. And I haven’t really had chocolate covered pistachios…at least not to my knowledge. But most nuts in general are a safe choice. Something about the texture…

Fit’s – Grape Mix

Fit’s – Grape Mix

Chewing gum was once considered social taboo in Japan. There was and still is, a generally frowned upon thing to take something from your mouth once it’s been put in there. It’s why Hi-Chew was…

Ritter Sport – Milk Chocolate Cashews

Ritter Sport – Milk Chocolate Cashews
