chocolate choco taco

clams dossier
pretty good
the ice cream smashes out the other side of the taco shell when you bite into it though
i think they should make these 25% bigger

grade: b-

Theses are pretty great. 
Nice crisp and crunchy 
Underside is hollow so you can stuff them with fruit or whateves.

Pretty simple snack pastry but versatile and it is hands down the best snack Bimbo makes. IMO

you don't make your own tortillas clams?  wow.

But hey while we at it, let's talk store bought salsa.  I like Mrs. Renfro's stuff.  Tons of different flavors and some have that little bite of spice that most other grocery store salsas lack.

Melina's Mexican Salsa (Hot)

Probably the best salsa available retail. It's hot (says so on the jar and my mouth confirms). It tastes fresh. Doesn't have any oil in it like some salsa's that have that strange oily flavor. Downside is that it's a little wet so you have to be careful and not flood your taco or nachos with too much moisture.

Grade: A+ (best salsa grade for best salsa)

You know the salsa is authentic when the branding on the bottle looks really outdated.

Good choice SD.  Will give it a shot.

Yes! As with almost everything ever, less effort put into marketing = better product

hostess donettes (chocolate)

great for a quick breakfast.  very tasty.  nice and "hard" chocolate coating with fresh donuty interior (unlike cheaper versions that have mushy yucky chocolate coating).  even better if slightly chilled.

rating: a+ but very bad for you

Apparently puni has a butt for his mouth and through no fault of its own (a butt has no business tasting things) doesn't know an A+ treat when one is put in it.  Donettes are excellent.  Zut alors!

Quaker Oat Chewy Chocolate Chip granola bars. My breakfast about 4 mornings a week.
Grade: A (if I ranked it any lower, I'd feel like a lazy dumbass for not eating something different, and then a couple of posters would make fun of me in the other thread.)

I got the GF a Tortilla Press and cast Iron Skillet for Christmas, unfortunately she is not very good at making tortillas.   :frown:

I think it's actually around $15. I don't really care or hassle her about it but I was shocked when I picked some up for her.

I said it is the best one there is. You don't need a grade because the grade doesn't matter. All other nut based spreads would get a lower grade than Nutella.

Pineapple

Review: If you lived in the midwest in the old days and you wanted a delicious pineapple, you were crap out of luck buddy. But today, you can get them everywhere, cuz progress. They are so good. Today, I cut one up that looked just like this and put it in cottage cheese. Amazing.

Grade: 4.5 free hotdogs at bramlage out of 5
