Kroger Maple Glazed Donuts

Kroger Maple Glazed Donuts


What Is It: Cake donuts glazed with maple frosting.


Packaging: It kinda has autumn colours on it with orange leafs and such. Kinda nice.

7 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: These kinda tasted funky to me. The cake part was fine and there was maple in the frosting but it ended up tasting almost like a sausage link. I don't know if it was my mind like connecting maple to maple sausage links but every bite reminded me of eating sausage and it was a bit disconcerting. There are better sweets out there for sure.

SweetTart Chicks, Ducks, and Bunnies

SweetTart Chicks, Ducks, and Bunnies


What Is It: Standard tasting SweetTarts in the shape of Easter things. Yellow (lemon), green (lime), pink ( cherry), purple (grape), and the blue (sour blueberry).


Packaging: It comes in a green bag with lots of pictures of the product characters on it. Pretty cool.

7 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: Well it's pretty simple. If you like SweetTarts then you will like these because they are the same thing. I do like all of the fun Easter shapes so that's a good thing. As for the flavours blue is still my favourite with the perfect combination of sweet and really tart. The cherry is close behind and then the yellow and the others. All in all a delicious Easter treat for all.

Vermont Cracked Pepper Beef Stick

Vermont Cracked Pepper Beef Stick


What Is It: A beef and pork stick with cracked pepper in it.


Packaging: It comes in a green wrapper with all of the information on it. Not much to it.

3 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: A darn good stick if you ask me. Great meat flavour and the black pepper while not overpowering was definitely present and delicious. Not much else to say on this one. Very simple but very delicious and a good way to spend a dollar at Kroger.

Totino's Pizza Rolls

Totino's Pizza Rolls


What Is It: I got three different kinds of Totino's Pizza Rolls that I know of Cheese, Pepperoni, and Combination (pepperoni and sausage). All have some pizza sauce and are wrapped in a golden crust.


Packaging: All come in a yellow bag with pictures of their respective ingredients. Nice looking bags I think.

7 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: This is one of those quick and easy dinner or snack options that are very inexpensive. All of these taste similarly with the cheese having plenty of cheese in it the pepperoni having good spice and the combo having a good balance of flavour. I really like these a lot for both a quick entree or just as a snack.

Hershey's Cookie Layer Crunch

Hershey's Cookie Layer Crunch


What Is It: A chocolate candy bar with shortbread, caramel, and marshmallow ( I think).


Packaging: A nice looking Hershey brown wrapper with all of the information and a small picture of the inside of the candy bar. Good enough.

6 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: This is one of my current go to candy bars. The crunch from the shortbread combined with the richness of the chocolate and the gooey goodness from the caramel and it's a dandy piece of candy. Great stuff.

Lays Southwestern Queso Chips

Lays Southwestern Queso Chips


What Is It: As the name suggests this is queso flavoured potato chips.


Packaging: It comes in a blue/green bag with a picture of a bowl of queso at the bottom. Pretty snazzy.

9 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: This was not one of my favourite flavours that Lays has brought to us. It was more of a salsa flavour than queso and it just didn't work for me. I don't know what specifically was wrong with it rather it was a flavour clash or what but it just didn't taste good to me. Not much else to say. Try one of their other great flavours.

SweetTart Jellybeans

SweetTart Jellybeans


What Is It: SweetTart flavoured jellybeans. Green for lime, pink for cherry, yellow for lemon, orange for well orange, blue for blue raspberry, and purple for grape.


Packaging: It comes in a pink bag with the logo written really big. Middle of the road.

5 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: One of the good thing about Easter season is different kinds of jellybeans. These are one of the better ones out there. As you would expect with SweetTarts they're very tangy which makes them unique. As with most fruity candy types the cherry is my favourite. I mean tangy cherry. It doesn't get any better than that for me. The blue SweetTarts are among my favourites too but I don't think the blue jellybean quite contains the epic tangyness of the blue SweetTart. Still good though. The orange and lemon were really good and the grape and lime were fine for what they were. Lots of tangy goodness here and worth picking up.

Trix

Trix


What Is It: Fruit flavoured corn puff cereal.


Packaging: Since this is aimed at kids this is a really colourful and fun box with the patented Trix rabbit and lots of other fun things on the red box. Great stuff.

9.5 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: If you like fruity flavours than this cereal is for you. Red (strawberryI think), purple for grape and yellow for lemon are all here. Put it all together and every bite is a fruity explosion in your mouth. There are cereals I like more than this out there but if fruity flavours are what I'm in the mood for than Trix is what I pick up. Besides it says "Trix Are For Kids" so how can I not pick this up?

Screamin Sicilian Pizza

Sceamin Sicilian Pizza


What Is It: A frozen pizza loaded with different cheeses. Included are mozzarella, parmesan, Romano, and white cheddar.


Packaging: This is one of coolest things I've ever seen in my life.

Best Box Ever out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: As awesome as the box is the pizza isn't far behind. The sauce is passable but the cheese is where it's at. The mozzarella was on point and plentiful and I also especially liked the sharpness of the white cheddar. The crust was also a good one. This was on the level of most restaurant pizzas. Buy this.

Lindt Excellence Intense Orange

Lindt Excellence Intense Orange


What Is It: A decadent dark chocolate bar infused with orange flavour.


Packaging: Well this is definitely a fancy looking wrapper with lots of snazzy writing and a really cool picture in the center with the chocolate like coming out of an orange. It sold it to me.

10 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: This was a fantastic chocolate bar. A great combination of the bittersweet dark chocolate and tons of orange citrus flavour. I'm telling you I got punched in the face by orange here and absolutely loved it. This was my kind of chocolate bar here.
