Stouffer's Frozen French Bread Pizza

Stouffer's Frozen French Bread Pizza


What Is It: A two pack of frozen French bread pizzas. 


Packaging: It comes in an orange box like all Stouffer's products. It has a huge picture of the product covering most of the front of the box. It gets the job done.

7 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: This is a pretty high quality take on a frozen pizza and certainly the best of the French Bread variety that I know of. The crust is a really nice and crispy one as long as you cook it properly. The sauce is a pretty good one although there's a bit too much on there for me. Plenty of cheese and pepperoni finish it off very nicely. Sometimes if I really want to make it extra delicious I'll add some extra mozzarella to the top of it too. High recommendation.

Mike And Ike's Butter Popcorn Candies

Mike And Ike's Butter Popcorn Candies


What Is It: Butter popcorn flavoured chewy candies.


Packaging: A very fun looking box yellow in colour to represent the popcorn. Lots of fun artwork like the bucket of popcorn and little popcorn kernels. Really cool.

9.5 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: Mike And Ike's does some of my favourite flavours of candy out there. They push the envelope and come up with a lot of fun and innovative flavours. This however was not one of them. The combination of what should be a salty snack with the super sugaryness of Mike And Ike's candies just made for a very bizzare taste in my mouth. They did a very buttery take on the popcorn but like I said it should not be sweet. It makes me want to go to the theatre and get a big thing of real popcorn and a big box of some other flavour of Mike And Ike's.

Kellogg's Corn Flakes

Kellogg's Corn Flakes


What Is It: The original corn flake breakfast cereal. 


Packaging: It comes in the traditional white box that I always remember it in with a green rooster and a bowl of cereal on it. Very attractive. 

8 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: A lot of people say that this is a boring cereal but I totally disagree. I always find this to be one of the most satisfying breakfast's out there. I like to add a spoonful of sugar to sweeten it a scosh and go to town. The natural corn flavour of the flakes, combined with dash of sweet that I add with the sugar, washed down by the milk make for a darn good bowl. Sometimes you can't beat the old classics.

Pringles BBQ

Pringles BBQ


What Is It: Bbq flavoured Pringles. 


Packaging: They come in the trademark Pringles can coloured brown representative of the bbq. There is some cool artwork on the front bottom as well. Good stuff. 

7.5 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: This is not the best effort from Pringles here. A very uninspired bbq flavour. It's not overly spicy or sweet. It's just kind of there. It's not like inedible or anything but it's not the delicious chip that Pringles usually produces. I would say take a pass on this on.

Chex Mix Cheddar

Chex Mix Cheddar


What Is It: This a snack mix consisting of pretzels, 2 kinds of grid like textured crackers one having stronger cheddar flavour than the other, and little triangle cheese wedge cracker pieces.


Packaging: It comes in a very attractive orange bag locks of cheese decor on it and some pictures of the product on the bottom. Looks cool.

8 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: This a very popular and probably the easiest to find kind of Chex Mix. As you would expect they infused tons of cheddar flavour in all of the mix. Even the pretzel pieces have lots of cheddar. The rest of the mix also has great flavour with varying degrees of cheddar flavour on each different kind of piece. A pretty good mix albeit a safe one.

Kid Cuisine Meals

Kid Cuisine Meals


What Is It: They are t.v. dinner's made for kids. The 3 I'll be looking at are Bug Safari Chicken Breast nuggets which come with fun shaped chicken breast pieces, mac and cheese,  corn, and little chocolate cookies with x's and o's for the tic tac toe game on the back. The second was Galactic Chicken Nuggets which have the same as the first except that the nuggets are just ordinarily shaped. The last one is the Pizza Paint Cheese Pizza. It comes with a cheese pizza, corn, and a brownie. 


Packaging: Kid Cuisine comes in blue boxes with fun games on the back and fun stuff on the front. Great kid themed packaging. 

8 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis:  The two chicken nugget meals are very similar as they have pretty basic frozen chicken nuggets similar to what you would get in like a Banquet frozen dinner. Corn is corn, the mac and cheese was pretty decent and the cookies were pretty good. The pizza I liked better than than the nuggets. An average soft type of crust and an okay sauce. Plenty of cheese is also included. Corn is still corn and the brownie is rich and delicious. Despite the fact that these meals have average at best food they are still ideal for kids or even adults like myself for like a 4th meal or snack. And they're so fun.

Snickers

Snickers


What Is It: One of the most popular candy bars it comes with chocolate, caramel, peanuts.


Packaging: It has one of the most recognizable candy wrappers out there with the brown wrapper with Snickers across the middle. Not that exciting but it works for them.

6 out of 10


Taste/Final Analysis: While there are more exciting candy bars out there this is like old faithful. It's one of those candy bars that I won't go out of my way for but I'm never disappointed to eat one. The milk chocolate on the outside combined with caramel and peanuts on the inside make for a delicious and kinda filling candy bars put there (hence the "Hungry? Grab a Snickers" jingle they use.) All in all like I said it's a darn good candy bar if not unspectacular.
