The Reese’s PB&J cups come in strawberry jam and grape jam. I picked the strawberry jam because the grape one says right on the front artificially flavored so I thought the strawberry would be better? It’s marked U and D so it doesn’t contain any Castoreum so it’s safe to eat.
It looks different than the picture.
LOL – I thought the top would be embellished with peanut butter and jam.
I cut in half and I see the strawberry jam is near the bottom of the cup.
I try some.
It tastes mostly like a Reese’s Cup.
The strawberry jam doesn’t bring much to it.
It’s not terrible but the jam is a waste because it doesn’t have much flavor to it. It’s just there to give you less Reese’s.
Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Reese’s PB&J Strawberry Jam Big Cups. Your FORKING opinion may indeed differ.

Made gnocchi a bit different. This was just leftover ziti filling and I just added flour till it felt like gnocchi dough. Came out perfect and delicious.

Fun NEW Limited Edition Lay’s Potato Chip Flavors recently came out and two of them I had to try.
One is – Korean Style Fried Chicken (Wavy)
The Other is – Thai Style Red Curry
One taste FORKING AMAZING and the other is over seasoned powdery and weird.
Sadly the loser is Korean Style Fried Chicken.
It taste like mostly too much paprika, dry garlic, dry onion, and a sort of burnt chicken taste, maybe with other flavors. It doesn’t really taste like food. It tastes like seasoning mix that you’d add to something but with a burnt chicken kind of taste.
The “WINNER” by a long shot is clearly the Thai Style Red Curry. GOSH AND YUM! this one is delicious! Even the actual chips taste better and taste like potato chips that were dipped into actual Thai Red Curry.
I’m just showing off just a few of the recipes that you can find here on www.TheForkingTruth.com

According to EVERYONE on the internet Kitchen Aid Stand Mixers are by far the best that any home cook can buy. I had mine around 15 or so years and noticed that it seems to make noises and gets so hot I think it might catch on fire. I read that the average age for a Ktchen Aid Mixer to last is about 15 years so maybe I’m due to replace it.
Recently I noticed that Kitchen Aid Mixers were on sale at Costco so I picked out a new one. When I picked it up I noticed that it isn’t as heavy as my old one……..?
I made a batch of dough and I wanted it to mix for ten minutes.
Then after 4 minutes it stopped.
I tried a few more times to start it up.
I returned it back to Costco. I still have my old Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer. Maybe it will work a few more times?
Just Showing off some food I made. The recipes or variations of the recipes can be found here just use the search.
Not everything but most were for gatherings.

Rye Rolls
Made deviled eggs with Peruvian Sweety Drop Peppers.
Pate a Choux, Chocolate, Chocolate Mascarpone, Lightly Macerated Strawberry
These look much prettier that what my photo shows. The Pastry (Pate a Choux was piped and looks like the Deviled Egg Swirls. I thought a light dip of chocolate would be good (and it was) The Chocolate Mascarpone was being given away at my supermarket yesterday. It seemed a little dry to me but I didn’t want to change it and added strawberries that I lightly macerated. People went NUTS over them.
Everyone likes pizza or just about everyone. I made pizza and pizza rolls. They really are the same just put together different. To my surprise the pizza rolls went first. I guess they are easier to just pick up and take.
Corned Beef & Cabbage Hand Pies
Corned Beef & Cabbage Hand Pies
For one gathering I brought this –
Chipotle rice corn cheddar with potato string wrapped peppers
Smashed red mini potatoes topped with duchess potatoes
Corned beef and Cabbage hand pies
Cherry filled cookies with chocolate drizzle
It was a morning group so the cookies and potato bites went first followed by the stuffed peppers but it all eventually went
The next day had a St Patrick’s Party and brought a big box of corned beef and cabbage hand pies and a small tray of smashed mini red potatoes topped with duchess potatoes. They went like lightning there.
This next one coming isn’t for a gathering but is worth showing off. Just starting out a pastrami.
This gets cooked up with water to cure the brisket.
This needs to sit in the refrigerator and cure for give or take a week and then it gets smoked.
Sprouts Farmers Markets Grocery Stores are a chain of food markets with Phoenix Arizona Headquarters. They offer a wide selection of natural and organic foods.. They also offer vitamins, bulk items, frozen foods, a deli, pet foods, health, beauty, and more.
Often I buy the organic ground turkey for making meatballs or meatloaves.
I buy mostly produce here for two reasons.
One reason is that certain things like carrots, radishes, and broccoli taste noticeably better than from my big grocery stores.
The other reason is because of the tremendous sales they periodically have.
Anyways below are just a few of the dishes I made with Sprouts Produce.
Stem Broccoli with Peanut Gojogang Sauce
Butternut Squash with Apple Salsa
Carrots with oranges and pistachios
Brussels Sprouts are often a managers special…..I don’t mind.
One day they had farmers cheese for only 99cents a tub so I made blintzes
But sometimes I see strange things here.
I also think that it is strange that they put kosher foods next to pork crumbs
That was a little taste of my local Sprouts Farmers Market Grocery.
Showing Off is just showing mostly just food that I make for gatherings or somethings that are special.
Up above is pizza with burrata and balsamic, sweet potato pies with cumin seeds, allspice, cinnamon, and nigella seeds, and fresh mozzarella and parmesan pizza.
