Limited Edition Cherry Apple Cobbler Juice Drink - Walmart: Berlin,NJ

Limited Edition Cherry Apple Cobbler  Juice Drink - Walmart: Berlin,NJ
Old Orchard came out with a few different flavors this season, I already tried the Apple Pie version, reviewed here, and I wasn't too impressed. I originally bought that flavor because I remembered hearing about a similar product from YouTuber xSparkage, but it just didn't pan out. Cherry cobbler is one of my absolute favorite desserts, and although I've never had apple in it, I can't imagine it would make me love it any less. Hopefully this "juice drink" will taste a bit better.

Reese's Spread - Walmart: Berlin, NJ

Reese's Spread - Walmart: Berlin, NJ
Are any of you scrambling for a last minute gift this season? Do they like Reese's cups? BUY THIS! Seriously. Buy this spread, slap a bow on it, and tie a fancy spoon to it using red and white striped twine or ribbon. BOOM! Best gift ever. I'm normally not the kind of person to gush over a particular product, but this...this is just gush-worthy.

Not convinced? Go ahead and read the rest of this review.

Fritos Chili Pizza - Papa John's: NJ

Fritos Chili Pizza - Papa John's: NJ
Oh wow, I haven't reviewed a Papa John's pizza since August. It doesn't feel like it's been that long since a new flavor was released, did I miss one?

I've already said this (multiple times, I bet you guys are sick of hearing about this) but I haven't enjoyed a limited edition Papa John's pizza since the Double Cheeseburger one. Apparently I was one of the very very few food bloggers who enjoyed that pizza, but ever since, I feel like these new flavors are something I can easily make at home with a few ingredients I already have on hand. (Like that Sweet Chili Chicken or the Greek. Toss feta on a veggie pizza, or some chili sauce and chicken and it's the same exact thing.)

This time Papa Johns is selling a pizza with Fritos on it. Am I a sucker for buying a pizza covered in Fritos? We'll see...

Crème Brûlée Milkshake - Arby's

Crème Brûlée Milkshake - Arby's

I don't think I've ever eaten anything from Arby's before. My only childhood memory involving Arby's is that one Lord of the Flies-like episode of The Simpson's where the children are stranded on an island and one of the twin girls says, "I'm so hungry, I could eat at Arby's!" (The rest of the children audibly gasp and murmur that she really must be hungry. ) That little gag really stuck with me, my sister and I quote it all the time when we're hungry, so maybe that joke actually caused me avoid this fast food chain as an adult. Then again, I'm also not a huge fan of red meat, and with roast beef being their main product, it's no wonder I haven't stopped in for a bite. (Get it? Arby's. R. B. Roast Beef. The meaning behind their name was definitely lost on me as a child.) On my drive to and from work I pass a LOT of tempting fast food restaurants, and while I'm normally very good about ignoring them and going straight home to eat, Arby's sign for a crème brûlée milkshake was too tempting to pass up.

Snickerdoodle Toaster Strudel - ShopRite: Berlin, NJ

Snickerdoodle Toaster Strudel - ShopRite: Berlin, NJ
I'm not sure if this flavor is limited edition, or permanent, but I figured I would do a little foodie experiment to see if this tasted any different from the new Limited Edition Pumpkin Pie strudel. (Since they are both cinnamon-heavy flavors.) I bought a box of each, so now I gotta hurry up and review these to make room for all the frozen pumpkin goodies I plan on reviewing next month. Let the strudeling begin!

Beignets (instant mix) From my boyfriend's trip to Louisianna

Beignets (Made from a mix) - From my boyfriend's trip to Louisiana
After being wifi-less, and working myself to the bone to prep for Otakon's artist alley, my beignet post is finally here!

Some of you might remember that my boyfriend went to Louisiana last month for two weeks to visit family, while he was there he went to the famous Cafe Du Monde for coffee with chicory and a big plate of sugar dusted beignets. Since he knows that I run this blog, and that I love trying new foods (especially famous ones), he bought a box of instant beignet mix and a tin of coffee so that I could experience the same yummy treats.

Quickie Review: Spicy Pulled Pork Pizza - Papa John's: NJ

Spicy Pulled Pork Pizza - Papa John's: NJ
I'm back from Baltimore! I was hoping to update each night from my hotel room, but the wifi was an absolute mess. (I should have known better. 30,000+ people and free wifi? It never had a chance.)  I'll be posting more about that on my art blog, but right now I need to get back into the swing of things, so to kick things off I have this quickie pizza review.

Oreo Creme Filled Chips Ahoy! - Wegman's: Cherry Hill, NJ

Oreo Creme Filled Chips Ahoy! - Wegman's: Cherry Hill, NJ
I picked these up on the same day as the Birthday Frosting variety. Admittedly I am more of an Oreo cookie fan than the creme filling, but I couldn't pass up the chance to try something new.
