NEW WeIRD DifFEREnt Limited and Special Edition Foods Out There April 2021

There is always something New Weird Different Limited or Special Edition out there in the wonderful world of food. You just never know WTFork you will see out there.

Up above is-

WEIRD & DIFFERENT – Tibits Birthday Cake Macaroons. Well I never thought I’d ever come across Birthday Cake macaroons. But are they birthday CAKE if they are macaroons? Aren’t they really just macaroons with added sprinkles (some people call them Jimmies and somebody I used to work with told me they are also called twinkle coat…..I have to say twinkle coat does sound stylish) Go FORKING stick a candle in that!

NEW – Whozeewhatzit??????? It says it’s chocolate with chocolatey crisps and peanut butter…,Might be good. Might suck? Have to try it to know. Weird name for a candy bar. I don’t see a manufacturer name either..????? Guess it’s made by WhoZeeWhatzit?

NEW – Reese’s Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers Peanut butter cups…..Ummm? Now these I am going to try when I find them ????

NEW and maybe LIMITED EDITION – Reese’s mallow top marshmallow flavored creme topped peanut butter cups……These I tried. Someone is on crack if they think that there is any marshmallow creme here….It doesn’t taste bad but it is just cheap very sweet white coating over the cup.

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Trader Joe’s Crispy Peanut Butter filled chocolate peanuts. Oh yes I did and these are pretty darn good……you can go NUTS for them….Sorry I didn’t buy a second bag.

WEIRD – Maud Borup Top of the box reads hello sunshine. In the box is solid white chocolate that looks like a bloody egg (see the FORKING blood?), bacon and burnt toast…….Now that is weird……This as a sandwich is a diabetes sandwich in a box.

NEW (and maybe WEIRD) – Kellogg’s Eggo Blueberry Waffle Cereal. It’s all fun and game till some dumb smuck tosses this waffle cereal into the toaster.

NEW – Kellogg’s Froot Loops with Marshmallows….There are lots of marshmallows these days. This cereal is so colorful I beet it makes you poop a rainbow.

NEW – Quaker Life Cereal in Chocolate…I wonder how Mikey feels about it?

DIFFERENT – Osem brand Bissli Falafel flavored wheat snacks. I did try these because it came in a small bag and I like falafels. These are not shaped like falafels and are shaped like rabbit pellets. The shape is odd and they are very crisp and do taste like falafels….Not bad but a very weird shape and awkward to eat. Maybe they get sprinkled on humus or salads?

DIFFERENT – Agustson Black Seaweed Caviar. ????? Who knew that seaweed lays black eggs?…..Might be good?

DIFFERENT – Field Trip Chickpea Butter in plain, cinnamon and chocolate…..different

DIFFERENT and maybe Weird – The Good Bean Chocolate covered chickpeas….???? I would rather have a chocolate covered peanut, mint, cherry or even a chocolate covered pretzel than a chocolate covered chickpea.

DIFFERENT – Wowza artificially flavored popcorn bar in caramel sea salt. I never heard of artificially flavored caramel…….I don’t wonder what that taste like.

And now for something healthier.

DIFFERENT – Don’t come by whole winter Mellons often.

DIFFERENT – Goya wafers in coconut, guava, mango, pineapple and strawberry. They sound delicious but don’t know.

DIFFERENT – Badia instant purple potatoes. Fresh potatoes are usually better than instant so I’d pass on this one.

DIFFERENT – Lay’s Cheddar Jalapeno flavored potato chips. They sound good but ingredients reads that they are full of buttermilk???????? WTFork?

NEW ( and taste WEIRD) – Lay’s Extra Crunch Kettle Cooked Honey Habanero. These have all kinds of ingredients in them. Blue cheese, sour cream, corn, yeast butter….I think someone was on drugs when they make up the recipe for this……

DIFFERENT – Wawel 70% cocoa with orange bar made in Poland marked Halal and kosher – Sounds delicious!

NEW and DIFFERENT- David Energy-Packed Mix of ranch flavored lentils, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chickpeas…….??????????

DIFFERENT – Surati Peanut bhujiya – It reads spicy peanuts with spices. Might be delicious?

DIFFERENT – Surati All in one snack mix. Rice & corn flakes, chickpeas, beans, nuts and spices…..Might be good?

And there is always a new Forking Oreo.

NEW – gluten free Oreo Cookies

That was the NEW, Weird, Different, Limited and Special edition foods out there for April 2021. Who knew WTFork I’ll come across next month.

The Forking Truth

Universal Yums – Germany March 2021

Universal Yums is a gift or subscription service for a box of international snacks.

You have three choices of size boxes.

Besides snacks your box comes with a booklet that includes some facts, trivia and a recipe.

I don’t know why but my box is marked reject.

That’s just dandy. WHATEVER

Lets try our first snack.

It’s puffed rice with a thin coat of waxy chocolate. It’s much lighter in texture than the Asian puffed rice bars. I think it might have ground rice powder in it with the texture of almost angel cake holding it together. I like the center of this bar with the ultra light texture. It ALMOST seems like the rice is suspended in angel cake but it isn’t…just taste that way.

Next

They smell tangy……They taste better than they smell…..Sort of like a ketchup taste…..Not awful (“PHEW”) but not something that I would buy.

Next we try the onion rings.

They smell just like onion powder. They have the same texture as softer lighter cheese curls but don’t taste like cheese curls. They taste onion flavored. Light oniony rings…they are ok.

Now we will go for something sweet.

Here are cinnamon almond cream wafers.

They are cinnamon-ee…kinda almond-ee………They remind me of other wafer snacks from all over the world. I think every country out there makes some sort of wafer snack.

Here is premium white chocolate with strawberry rhubarb crumble. I think this is pretty good. It taste like lots of strawberry in a cream……maybe the sour finish is the rhubarb? I think that this was the best of the box.

I saved this for last because I’m not a big fan of marzipan.

Well it’s a stick of marzipan. It’s covered in dark chocolate that isn’t too bad.

That was Germany Universal Yums for March 2021.

NEW Mrs. Freshley’s Reese’s peanut flavored cup cakes and Hershey’s triple chocolate cakes. Could go either way?

NEW – Pepperidge Farms Goldfish Veggie Crackers in Sweet Carrot Flavor………Ok so they might be a little healthier than regular Goldfish crackers….I would call them NEW and IMPROVED.

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Rhythm organic cauliflower bites. I bought this. It’s fried in a special way with little oil. They don’t taste fried…..but they have this really light nice crisp texture. They seem almost like freeze dried but sort of tasty…..but a little too salty…..I think I’ll try them in a salad.

The Forking Truth

My Forking Thoughts on Lay’s Flamin’ Hot Dill Pickle Potato Chips

Lay’s Flamin’ Hot Dill Pickle Potato Chips have been out for a while now but I finally got up the nerve to try them. About a year ago I tried several different flavors of Lay’s potato chips that just didn’t do it for me so I gave up trying new flavors until recently.

These Lay’s Flamin’ Hot Dill Pickle Potato Chips smell just like a jar of dill pickle!

I got to look at the ingredients.

They have a few ingredients that are unexpected like whey and sour cream…..???? Why whey and sour cream? They don’t go into spicy dill pickles!

Here are the chips up close.

The chips are smaller in size and are a little powdery.

I taste one. It’s almost too hot and *****IS*****too vinegary for me.

My husband loves them and is woofing them down.

The chips for me are painful to eat slow.

If I eat them faster they don’t hurt my mouth and they really do taste like spicy dill pickles.

Pretty good and worth a try! …Just don’t eat them slow.

Your experience and taste may indeed differ.

NEW WEirD DifFERENt Limited and Special Edition Foods Out There November 2020

There is always something New, Weird, Different, Limited and Special Edition out there in the wonderful world of food. We never know what we will come across when we shop for food.

Up above is –

DIFFERENT – Good Value Cheeseburger Onion rings……WOW! How do they do that? And how do you eat them? Do you put them in a sandwich? Do you dip them in ketchup or mustard or relish? They sure are different!

NEW – Yuengling/Hershey’s porter – Maybe it will go well with the cheeseburger onion rings?

NEW – Harpoon DogToberFest German Style Lager. Might be something to woof down?

NEW – For something more out of this world maybe you’d like to sip of Star Trek Wines in red or white special reserve, chateau Picard or Klingon Blood Wine? Maybe we should lock and load some up?

And what goes with wine/

DIFFERENT – Dutch Spicy Kaas Cheese. It’s a pretty looking cheese that isn’t as spicy as it sounds.

NEW – Del Monte Veggieful Veggie Bowls in Roasted Red Pepper with Quinoa and Asian Style with Soy Sesame Quinoa and Brown Rice.

DIFFERENT – Inspired iO Organics Organic Boxed low sodium Red Kidney Bean from Italy. They sound good!

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW _ Trader Joe’s Yuzu Hot Sauce, Truffle Powder Seasoning and Chili Onion Crunch. Tried the Yuzu Hot Sauce on Fish. I like the unique citrus taste and I like that it isn’t too hot. It’s good on fish. I also like the Truffle Powder….It sure beats most of the artificially truffle flavored oils. Haven’t tried the Chili Onion Crunch yet but I was looking for this sort of product.

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Watkins Maple Bourbon Rub. I tasted it and it’s not bad. I think it would be good on sweet potatoes or a butternut squash too!

NEW – Barilla Vero Gusto Red Sauce with Calabrian Pepper. It might be good but I have no idea on why a 20 oz bottle would cost $29.00.

Guess we are ready for some sweets.

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Hershey’s milk chocolate Pretzel Bites and milk chocolate Cookie Bites…Sounds tasty….?

DIFFERENT and possibly NEW – Dole Snack Bites in Dark Chocolate Blueberry Almond….Sounds delicious….????

NEW – Miniature Reese’s Lover Cups – They are deeper chocolate with extra chocolate and peanut butter cups with an extra peanut chocolate coating layer – (Yes I did) I think they are good. I like the perfect size for candy. You can eat just one and it is enough candy. But the full size ones taste better as they have the perfect peanut butter to chocolate ratio. So you have to get fat and eat the whole cup.

LIMITED EDITION – Kellogg’s Eggo frozen pancakes in gingerbread cookie flavor. they look like they have icing and those little hard crunchy balls (that I hate) on them.

LIMITED EDITION – Kellogg’s Disney Frozen II OK cute movie I can see little kids enjoying this. I see the purple leaves in the cereal but they could have done a better job at making the white puffs look like Olaf.

DIFFERENT – Kellogg’s Zucaritas …???? Looks like Frosted Flakes to me?

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – General Mills Jolly Rancher Cereal ….(ick)

NEW – Kellogg’s Little Debbie Oatmeal Creme Pies Cereal…..They look like little wheat bagels placed on top of sour cream to me.

NEW – Toblerone Lava Cakes (available at Wal-Mart) They look and sound delicious but ?????

NEW – Tajin Chili & Lime Crunchy Peanuts…might be tasty?

DIFFERENT – ARTISAN FOODS – Coconut Chips in Golden Turmeric Latte Flavor…..I don’t know what this stuff is….

NEW WEirD DifFERENt Limited and Special Edition Foods Out There October 2020 (many #Pumpkin Spice some #Halloween)

There is always something NEW, Weird, Different, Limited and Special Edition out there in the wonderful world of food. These are a few of what I’ve come across lately. Up above are –

NEW – Sugar Cookie artificially flavored M&M’s Candies. WOW this year really sucked. Had only like two new flavors of M&M’s this year. WTFork sugar cookie is artificially flavored? I have no idea why this candy is artificially flavored. All that is in a sugar cookie is sugar, flour, egg, butter and vanilla. I might try them but I’m not too optimistic.

NEW – Hershey’s Kisses in sugar cookie because you can’t get enough sugar cookie flavor even if you get the sugar cookie M&M’s too. There are so many cookies this time of year….Speaking of cookies…….

NEW – Nestle Hocus Pocus Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookie Dough with added morsels and candy gems. Might be fun for kids………..the the added morsels sort of scare me. Sounds like they made the cookies and someone tampered with them and added morsels………??????

NEW – Ben and Jerry’s Cookie Dough in Gingerbread and Cinnamon Bun. I don’t get this. Maybe someone might want gingerbread but cinnamon buns are not cookies so how can there be cinnamon bun cookie dough??????

NEW – Good Value (?) Orange Glitter Syrup with Natural Flavors (what are the natural flavors?….could be vomit….could be fart gas?)……..also made with edible glitter…..Now your poop can sparkle too….

DIFFERENT and maybe WEIRD – Yellow Pumpkins…???? IDK maybe they are sick and anemic? Maybe that is why I found them at Safeway?

LIMITED EDITION – Kit Kat in naturally and artificial flavored Pumpkin Pie …….? Guess the natural and artificial flavors might run a little like Frankenstein…..A little natural and a little un-natural?????

LINITED EDITION – Jelly Belly Pumpkin Pie Jelly Beans….This brand is usually very good so I tried them. After a few they went in the trash. 🙁

LIMITED EDITION – Swiss Miss Hot Coca Mix in Pumpkin Spice…..why not? everything else comes in pumpkin spice…..

LIMITED EDITION – Hostess TIGAR TAILS Twinkies…..I don’t know what flavor is tiger tail? I know the tail is connected near the butt hole so why would anyone want tiger tail flavored? Just look at that Twinkie…..Looks like it’s constipated or about to poo?

LIMITED EDITION – Little Debbie Pumpkin Delights Cookies.. It bugs me that they look like giant ant heads to me and not like jack-o-lanterns.

LIMITED EDITION – Little Debbie Pumpkin Spice Rolls…For when you need an extra roll or two around your muffin top.

LIMITED EDITION – Stauffer’s Artificially flavored Pumpkin Spice Snaps…..For those days when you are feeling un-natural and want the original recipe because the second one was even worst. Ohhhhh Snap!

LIMITED EDITION – Pirouline pumpkin spice creme filled wafers. …..might be natural? Don’t see artificial printed anywhere?????

LIMITED EDITION – Moon Pie Minis in Pumpkin Spice………… I would call Moon Pie Minis Space Rocks…Better than calling them Mud Pies.

LIMITED EDITION – Reese’s KING SIZE 2 pack White Pumpkins……??? It looks scary..????

LIMITED EDITION – Junior Mints with black and orange centers….WOW I’m glad I didn’t;t buy them. The black centers might make my teeth black. The Halloween Junior Mints used to just come with orange centers.

DIFFERENT – Hardbite hand crafted style carrot chips. I reckon if they are “hand crafted style” that they aren’t actually hand crafted…?

DIFFERENT and possibly WIERD – Melinda’s Thin and Crispy Banana Chips in Sour Cream and Onion Flavored………I don’t know about you but I would never think of sour cream and onions on bananas……

DIFFERENT – Millers sweet and spicy banana pepper mustard in miild and hot. Might be delicious. I love banana peppers.

DIFFERENT – The Foraging Fox Beetroot Ketchup in original and smoked. Sounds delicious……but why are they only showing the fox butt on the label? Looks like he pooped into the bottle.

WEIRD – Chocolate Works chocolate covered Cotton Candy Pretzels with pink strawberry sugar crystals. I have a feeling that these wouldn’t mix well with beer or mustard.

NEW – Cheetos Mac ‘N’ Cheese in flaming hot, bold and cheesy and cheesy jalapeño…..Maybe they pair well with Tiger Tail Twiinkies?

NEW – Kraft Pumpkin Spice Macaroni and Cheese……..This can not be good…I think the “D” stands for “Don’t touch this” just “Don’t”

LIMITED EDITION – Thomas English Muffins in Banana Bread……I’m confused….are they muffins or banana bread?

DIFFERENT – Taste of the South Fried Pickle and Ranch Dip…sounds tasty but wouldn’t the fried pickles get soggy?

This next one is even more different and WEIRD.

WEIRD – Brach*S Turkey Dinner Candy Corn in green beans, roasted turkey, cranberry sauce, ginger glazed carrots, sweet potato pie and stuffing WOW! Reminds me of something from Willy Wonka.

Then there is unfortunately…..I mean usually a new Oreo Cookie out there.

NEW – Family size dark chocolate Oreo Thins.

Oh BOY there’s more!

LIMITED EDITION – Boo hoo Oreo Trick or Treat Packs …My bad not Boo Hoo but just BOO!

Oh MY What have we Done to deserve even more Oreo………

Limited Edition – Oreo Spooky Graveyard Chocolate Cookie Kit…..Can you dig it?

That was the New, Weird, Different, Limited and Special Edition Foods out there for October 2020. Who Knows WTFork I’ll come across next month.

My First Box of Universal Yums – Columbia

I’ve subscribed to a subscription of Universal Yums at www.UniversialYums.com .They send you a box of International snacks. You can subscribe or gift in a number of ways. You also have to choose from three different sizes of snack boxes. The basic Yum Box is 6 snacks, a 12 page booklet with trivia, games and a recipe and runs around $15. a month. Next is the Yum Yum Box it is all that and they say more……and comes with 12 snacks and runs around $25. a month. The largest box is called The Super Yum Box. It is similar to the Yum Yum Box but comes with 20 snacks and runs around $40. a month.

I signed up for just the basic Yum Box (around $15.) that comes with 6 international snacks plus extra. My first box came with all kinds of treats from Columbia. I forgot to take a picture of just opening the box. This is my box after a few days of snacking.

It comes with a booklet with some facts about Columbia.

It also came with a recipe for arepas.

Some fun trivia.

Here are all the snacks.

Mayonnaise flavored potato chips, coconut wafer bar, lemon bacon chips, white chocolate cookie nuggets, a nougat chocolate bar and some sort of confection that is a mash-up of marshmallow and gummy in the shape of penguins.

They also included a surprise bag of a couple other things.

Coffee taffy and a passionfruit bubblegum pop. The coffee taffy tasted just like coffee. Had the texture of taffy but got softer. The passionfruit pop tasted like passionfruit but mixed with talcum powder. I didn’t take it to the bubblegum center.

We tried something that looked sort of familiar…..

Cookies and Cream White Chocolate Nuggets.

They taste like smashed up Oreos with extra frosting that is waxy. If you like Oreo cookies then you will like them.

Then we opened up this one.

It’s a chocolate bar filled with marshmallowy choco-nougat. Outer coating was a little waxy but did have a cocoa taste to it. Marshmallowy nougat isn’t my jam so we go to the next one.

Lemon Bacon chips (oy vey)

They don’t actually have bacon in them.

Pelllet (cooked) style fake bacon

They don’t taste like bacon but they are so artificially sour that they are painful to eat.

This next one looks cute.

They smell like Juicy Fruit Gum.

They are penguin shaped and are like a cross between a marshmallow and a gummy. I guess they are a fluffy gummy penguin.

These aren’t bad. They taste like coconut wafers. These are ok.

Artificially flavored mayonnaise potato chips……(why?)…They smell like normal potato chips……they are powdery and have an odd sour finish…….Or maybe it’s a chemical finish?

There is a YUM scorecard to fill out.

While I didn’t particularly enjoy any of the snacks from Columbia I still enjoyed the adventure. That was my first box of Universal Yums.

I wonder WTFork Universal Yums will send me next time?
