Brooklyn Born Chocolate – Dark Chocolate Cashew Butter Cups

Brooklyn Born Chocolate – Dark Chocolate Cashew Butter Cups

One thing I’m not sure I’ll ever grow out of is getting all giddy and excited to check out the snack sections when I go grocery shopping. I’ve noticed though, in recent years that I…

Hi-Chew Doubles – Fig & Momotaro Grape

Hi-Chew Doubles – Fig & Momotaro Grape

I’m always excited to try a new Hi-Chew flavour. Doubly so when one or both of the flavours involves grape. Pun intended. I can’t say I’m too experienced with figs. Sometimes it shows up in…

Mentos – Cherry & Pineapple

Mentos – Cherry & Pineapple

Some combinations can make you scratch your head and wonder at what the thought process behind it was. Cherry and pineapple aren’t exactly fruits or flavours I tend to associate with each other, so this…

Calbee – Winter Snow Cheese Chips

Calbee – Winter Snow Cheese Chips

I feel that as society moves faster and things advance at a quicker clip, as do our attention spans. We often search for the new hotness, or the next best thing and move on from…

Bad Monkey – Dill Pickle Popcorn

Bad Monkey – Dill Pickle Popcorn

After my previous run in with Bad Monkey, I was hopeful to try another flavour. Dill pickle is one of those flavours that pops to the front of the line when I think of tastes…

Lakrids by Bülow – No. 3 Red

Lakrids by Bülow – No. 3 Red

Hipster licorice. Two words I’d never thought I’d put together, and even less likely to be something I’d ever try. I really don’t know how else to describe this stuff. It’s about as pricey as…

Haitai – Bbasea Crispy Shrimp Chips

Haitai – Bbasea Crispy Shrimp Chips

I feel like shrimp based snacks are one of those things that is very much rooted in culture. Growing up with them, it’s just a part of our potential options of snacks. It wasn’t until…

Meiji – Poifull Fruit Mix

Meiji – Poifull Fruit Mix

Jelly beans get a bad rap. Most people I talk to express disgust when offered them, often citing how they get stuck to your teeth or they are too sweet, or the flavour is on…

Hi-Chew – Soda Mix

Hi-Chew – Soda Mix

I get a little giddy sometimes when I open up a new bag of a Hi-Chew mix. Something about opening up a fresh bag and seeing all those neat, delightfully packaged candies pour out of…

Mentos – Spice It Up

Mentos – Spice It Up

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…
