NEW WEirD DIFFerent Limited and Special Edition Foods out there November 2021

There is always something new, weird, different, limited or special edition in the wonderful world of food. These days you never know wtfork you will see when you look for food.

Up above is –

DIFFERENT – Live Ocean fully cooked microwavable salmon risotto that doesn’t need refrigeration either. I wonder if it’s fishy? I sure love salmon but I hate fishy salmon.. it is hard to imagine salmon in a cheesy risotto…Maybe the risotto isn’t cheesy? I guess you either get hooked on this or toss it back?

DIFFERENT and maybe WEIRD – Sonoma Gourmet – butternut squash sauce or puree for your pasta….It’s kind of weird…..It looks like baby food too!

NEW – General Mills – Dulce de Leche Toast Crunch…. How good can this cereal be is the little toast guy on the right side of the box looks like he is throwing his guts up?

NEW – General Mills – Lucky Charms marshmallow clusters…..Don’t all the lucky charms have marshmallows in them? I reckon that they accidentally made defective marshmallows that stuck together so they came up with this to sell them.

NEW – Kellogs From Loops Cereal Straws – Leave it to Kellogg’s to come up with something that sucks……..sucks milk..

DIFFERENT – E&C’s heavenly hunks in organic birthday cake cookies….I can’t tell how it is unless I taste it but the picture on the bag looks more like a clump of Rice Krispies with neon extra colored jimmies. It says on the bag that they are ridiculously amazing….???? Maybe they just make you ridiculously great at farting rainbows?

LIMITED EDITION – ENTENMANN’S Little Bites that are pumpkin muffins….Might be good but what is that critter on the front of the box? and why does he look like he is about to barf?

NEW – Pillsbury mini sweet biscuits in honey butter, chocolate chip, cinnamon sugar, and blueberry…..?

NEW (mostly new) – packaged Krispy Kreme bite and crullers in original, strawberry, key lime pie, blueberry, apple cinnamon, chocolate and lemon….???

DIFFERENT – Marvel Cakebites in Hulk Smash ………I don’t know what flavor that is….could be green pea or crunchy frog?

DIFFERENT – Marvel Cakebites in Spiderman……I heard that spiders taste like strawberries…so maybe these cakes are strawberry flavored…..or could also be web flavored….

NEW – Snickers White – I picked this up and took a bite. Then I had to spit out the bite. This doesn’t taste like something edible. I don’t know what it is made of.It’s missing the nougat part…..has a few peanuts…and maybe more gooey caramel type goo……and a lot of white weird stuff…I actually used to love white chocolate but not this bar,

NEW (sort of…1st time I noticed in a store) Chocolove xoxox Ruby Chocolate…..This is the third kind of chocolate made from ruby beans….More chocolate in this bar than from the waxy coating on a frozen ice cream bar that I tried. Might be good!

DIFFERENT – Raaka bananas foster dark chocolate bar…Might be delicious?

LIMITED EDITION – Goldfish jalapeƱo popper flavored….Why The Fork not?

DIFFERENT and maybe WEIRD – Noble Made carrot ketchup…might be good?

NEW – Red Robin sauces in camp fire, buzzard, spicy ketchup, and whiskey river. Who knew?

DIFFERENT – Pickled Planet Beat Kraut….Could be good and it also could be beat……..regular kraut with some added carrots, beets and caraway seeds.

WEIRD – Dang aged cheddar Thai Rice Crisps. I think that this one is weird because I have never seen anything aged cheddar in Thai Food anywhere.

WEIRD – Lesser Evil – Paleo Puffs in no cheese cheese flavor. That can be nothing but weird.

LIMITED EDITION – Cup Noodles PUMPKIN SPICE ramen noodles with OTHER natural flavors…I wonder WTFork are the OTHER natural flavors? Worms? Mud? Spider poop? Could be anything….Just saying

DIFFERENT – Avolov avocado powder….Had no idea there was avocado powder out there.

LIMITED EDITION – Arby’s potato vodka in French Fry and Curly Fry Flavor..????? But Arby’s doesn’t sell alcohol in their restaurants. Oh it’s only sold on-line…???? That is odd.

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Frozen Cocktails tequila margarita, vodka mule, gin melon, rum & cola…????? IDK…since alcohol doesn’t freeze….and they are frozen then there probably isn’t enough alcohol in them to do anything.

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Frozen Rum Skinny Cocktails ??? I’m skeptical about frozen cocktails from my grocer’s freezer.

And there is always a FORKING Oreo

LIMITED EDITION – Artificially flavored apple cider donut Oreo cookies…How good can that be?

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

There is ALWAYS something NEW, weird, different, limited, and special edition out there in the wonderful world of food. We never FORKING know what we will come across when we shop for food.

NEW – Post Fruity Pebble Crisps. It reads on the box that these are crispy rice crisps. Well Fruity Pebbles are made mostly from rice. Some of the other ingredients are artificial colors and artificial flavors and natural fruit flavors too.

NEW – Post Cocoa Pebbles Crisps. These have natural & artificial chocolate flavor in them….yabba dabba don’t!

NEW – Post Cocoa Pebbles milk chocolate barXL and Post Fruity Pebbles candy bars……made by Frankford….same company that makes those cheap Christmas and Easter Chocolates………..

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Cap’n Crunch’s Oops! All 3X BIGGER MEGA Berries snack pouches – Well I guess if you like Cap’n Crunch Berry Cereals then you might like the Mega Berry Snack pouch? But with all the coloring I see in them you are bound to fart a rainbow.

NEW – POP-tarts in frosted chocolatey churro……(it doesn’t look like a chore?) naturally and artificially flavored….doesn’t sound like the best? But it is baked (unlike a real churro)

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – All natural KA-super grains POP! in cinnamon churro puffs…Maybe they are good?

DIFFERENT – Portabella Wild Mushroom Jerky in three unique flavors – roasted garlic black pepper, sesame ginger Korean chili, & sweet balsamic golden fig…….I can’t see myself eating a chewy mushroom…WTFork knows ….they might be good!

WEIRD – Crispy Dillies – Pickle flavored fried cucumbers. I picked this up because it was so weird…..I ate a few and they are crisp and taste very much like a pickle but have extra acid in them…I almost can’t eat them…(but I am extra sensitive to acid taste in food) They might? be good in a salad with something thick and creamy to mellow all the acid….but they are WEIRD!

DIFFERENT – KA super grains POP Red & Green Sriracha Puffs. I thought these did sound good so I bought them…..The puffs all look the same but some have too much acid in them and make my mouth hurt. I didn’t think they these puffs were awful but I would never buy them again.

NEW – Kettle Brand Krinkle Cut Truffle & Sea Salt potato chips……I was pretty excited to see this but when I saw that this bag only cost $3.49 at A.J.s I figure that they can’t afford to buy real truffles at that price………or not enough truffles to taste anything anyway.

DIFFERENT Boulder Canyon Sweet Vidalia Onion Kettle Style Potato chips does sound tasty!

DIFFERENT & WEIRD – UTZ..??? Something called Daisies that are Forking Pretzels covered in naturally and artificially birthday cake…..Daisies…WHY?…..Birthday Cake on pretzels….(ick) Someone on drugs must have thought this mess up.

DIFFERENT – Mtm Dew in another different flavor called Baja punch….now that one I’m guessing might taste like punch.

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Nellies free range sous vide egg bites….? One is uncured bacon and pepper jack cheese flavored…….You only get two bites for $3.99……so it makes more sense to just buy a FORKING carton of eggs so you can get at least 12 bites for like $1.50…..Just saying….

LIMITED EDITION – Van Leeuwen Kraft Macaroni & Cheese French (???French howTFork can Kraft be French?) Ice Cream. It doesn’t look like any macaroni is in the ice cream so how can this be macaroni???? I guess it is just Kraft cheese flavored?…Well they don’t sell Van Leeuwan anywhere that I know of so I guess I won’t get to try it…darn!

NEW – Miniature rockit apples…? They FORKING LOOK like crabapples to me.. Now I’m feeling crabby.

DIFFERENT and maybe WEIRD – Foreal Foods Coconut jerky….Sounds a little weird.

So far there has always been either a NEW or LIMITED EDITION Oreo

LIMITED EDITION – Nabisco artificially flavored strawberry frosted donut with edible glitter. I’m so glad that they used edible glitter instead of the normal inedible glitter. Maybe these cookies with the artificial flavor and glitter will make you fart a cloud of sparkles.

The Forking Truth

My Forking Thoughts on Lay’s Spanish Tomato Tango Potato Chips

I picked up this bag of Lay’s Spanish Tomato Tango Potato chips from the Asiana Market in the Deer Valley part of Phoenix. These chips are from India…..I thought they’d be from Spain since it reads Spanish on the bag. Well Spanish sounds good so lets give this bag a try.

It’s a very small bag of chips and it only weighs around 2 ounces.

Here’s the back of the bag.

Here’s the ingredients.

I’m so glad that they used edible vegetable oil instead of inedible vegetable oil. I see that some flavors are natural and other flavors are identical flavoring substances…LOL!

I open the bag and take a whiff.

Gosh these chips smell really strange…

I smell sweet. I smell fried. I slightly smell cinnamon and a lot I can’t identify….Lets spilll some out.

The chips have ridges and are covered in an orange powder.

I taste one…..

It’s very strange.

It’s sour and sweet with other flavors that are laced with clove.

The sour is very strange….It’s not a normal sour like lemon or vinegar ……it’s more like tomato sauce that isn’t made right. Like when you don’t cook tomatoes enough or when you cook them too much and they start to ferment. Then you taste sugar like they attempted to fix the tomato sauce. I also taste the black pepper…..There are other flavors but they are overpowered by the clove that is really gross here.

Lay’s Spanish Tomato Tango Potato Chips is one of my all time least favorite flavors that I have ever tried.

Your opinion may indeed differ.

My Forking Thoughts on Universal Yums Spain April 2021

Universal Yums is a international snack box gift box or subscription service. You have a choice of a few different size boxes.

They all come with snacks and a booklet with games, trivia and a recipe.

This month the snacks are from Spain. My expectations were pretty high because Spain is well known for having amazing foods and astonishing canned fish. (I was hoping for some really great canned fish)

I got a squashed cake. The cake is soft and the filling is very paste-tee……

Next are spicy mango gummies. They smell sort of like mango. They are not spicy. Not a favorite. It’s like gummy whipped taffy with a weird flavor.

These smell awful. They smell just like when you walk by an old fryer with old oil. They are suppose to be bacon and cheese flavored bugle shaped corn snacks. But they don’t have bacon or any cheese in them. Won’t get fat eating these….

This month I got a Yum Bag….Usually we get a Yum Bag but last month I didn’t. the top candies are Spanish Chocolate Toffee. They are soft like Tootsie Rolls…After a few chews all the chocolate flavor disappears and it’s like edible plastic. The pistachio candies on the lower end of the Yum bag are suppose to be soft and rich?….I think I got defective candies because mine are hard and are strong enough to pull my teeth out. It taste like the flavor is sprayed on. After about a second you don’t need the candy anymore.

Next are little sugar coated caramels……..They taste good but do have a slightly artificial finish……

Last snack

Lemon pepper potato chips……They smell like normal potato chips…..They are nice and crisp in texture. For me they are too acidic….I can’t eat them but my husband can…Bah they were almost good with a nice potato flavor.

Those were my thoughts on Universal Yums Spain 2021 Your opinion may differ!

My Forking Thoughts on Lay’s Whacky Hot ‘N’ Sweet Chilli (Chili) Potato Chips

I picked up this bag of Lay’s Whacky Hot ‘N’ Sweet Chili (spelled Chilli on bag) Potato Chips from the Asiana Market in Deer Valley Phoenix Arizona. This bag is from India so it is not a flavor that you will find everywhere. I like Chili and Sweet can be ok so I decided to give this bag a try. It’s a very small bag with very little in it.

The bag only weighs 2 ounces.

The ingredients look pretty good for flavored potato chips.

I’m so glad that the potato chips main ingredient is potato and they used edible vegetable oil instead of inedible vegetable oil.

I open the bag and sniff them.

They smell really odd. Something like tahini mixed with a frozen pizza.

The chips are smaller in size with ridges and do have a powdery surface.

I get scared to taste them.

I taste one….

It’s very spicy but not too spicy and it is sweet.

They are more savory than sweet with a tiny bit of onion and garlic an also an odd taste in the background.

You get the odd taste more near the

bottom of the bag.

It’s something like soy sauce.

Those were my Forking Thoughts on Lay’s Whacky ‘N’ Sweet Chilli Potato Chips.

Your Forking Thoughts may differ.

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.

My Forking Thoughts on Surati Cheddar JalapeƱo flavored Potato Tubes

I found some different foreign snacks from Asiana Market in the Deer Valley part of Phoenix Arizona. Here are Surati Cheddar JalapeƱo flavored potato tubes. I found them in the India aisle but this snack is from Canada.

The front of the bag is marked suitable for vegetarians.

The ingredients are a mix of mostly natural and some chemical.

I open the bag and take a sniff.

It smells sort of cheesy and I do also smell chili powder.

I spill some out.

They are shaped sort of like French Fries but with. slightly hollow centers. They are dusted with seasonings.

I taste one.

It’s very spicy but it doesn’t burn with a natural cheesy flavor. It’s actually very tasty but the texture is unlike anything I ever tried before. It’s ultra light and airy. It’s so darn light and airy it would be easy to woof down this 3 1/2 ounce bag.

I might buy them again.

Worth a try if you can do spicy.
