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 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????

There is always something New, Weird, Different, Limited, and Special Edition out there in the wonderful world of food. We just never know WTFork we’ll see these days.

Up above is……

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW to stores – Cheesecake Factory famous brown bread. It looks like squishy bread. I wonder if it’s made with cheese cake cheese?

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Egglife southwest style egg white wraps……I’m thinking that these wraps might be thin omelets in a package that they are selling as wraps?

They also come in Italian Flavored. I was going to try a pack but they were a day from expired so I moved on.

DIFFERENT – Egglife Italian egg white wraps… Look at the top of package. It no flour so isn’t this a Forking omelet? I guess nobody would buy thin omelets in a package….But any dumb bunny would buy a wrap.

NEW – Pillsbury soft baked cookies in peanut butter with chocolatey drizzle, chocolate chip, and sugar with drizzled icing. If you enjoy the pillsbury ready to bake cookie dough than hopefully you will like these cookies that are ready to eat.

NEW and possibly WEIRD – Sun-Maid Bites in P.B. & J., Birthday Cake, and S’Mores…This seems very strange to me…Raisins just don’t go into certain things….I doubt anyone really wants them in birthday cake……

DIFFERENT – Food should taste good sweet potato tortilla chips. It says best chip for any dip on the bag. Who knows…maybe it is?

DIFFERENT – WinCo Kettle cooked smoked gouda flavored potato chips with “OTHER” natural flavors. ?????Smoked gouda flavor with OTHER flavors?????? Other can be ANY FORKING THING………Old shoe, road kill, cat vomit, cow farts…….

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Lay’s kettle cooked potato chips in flaming hot limon flavor????? I like lemon and I like hot….????????

DIFFERENT possibly WEIRD and maybe NEW – Good Health(?) Monster Shaped Veggie Chips. They look like cartoon teeth to me.???? Whatever

DIFFERENT and WEIRD – WinCo prime rib and horseradish naturally and artificially flavored potato chips. I have a beef about that I noticed that there isn’t any beef in these chips so how can they be prime rib flavored???????

DIFFERENT – WinCo chili lime potato chips….Well at least they are natural flavored like they should be so they are worthy of a try.

NEW – Mt. Olive Pickle Salsa in mild, medium, and hot. For when you always wished that pickles and salsa were mixed together.

NEW – Mt. Olive real dill pickle juicers…..For when you simply want to be pickled…I guess…..

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Post DUNKIN cereal in caramel macchiato made with DUNKIN Coffee……..It sounds like a beverage that is not for kids……Don’t know if many adults will buy this????

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Post DUNKIN mocha latte cereal made with DUNKIN coffee. Maybe this is an alternate buzz????? I would never eat this…

NEW and possibly LIMITED EDITION – Kellogg’s Together with Pride Cereal……??????????? This can have so many meanings…….

DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – General Mills cinnamon toast chocolate churros cereal. This one sounds tasty but the churro cartoon guys look more like macaronis.

NEW or is it OLD??????…General Mills Golden Grahams but of the Retro Recipe made with real honey….I’d be afraid to eat this. It might be cereal leftover from the 80’s or the 70’s that they dug up and decided to sell as retro.

LIMITED EDITION – General Mills Chocolate/Strawberry Cheerios. This one sounded delicious until I read the box that reads…….with “OTHER” natural flavors….That can be very scary. Other natural flavors could be nasty….

NEW – Duke’s Mayonnaise in Habanero Garlic, Fire Roasted Red Pepper, Cucumber Dill, and Bacon and Tomato………I FORKING Know that these sauces are mayonnaise based but when they add all those flavors to the mayonnaise it isn’t really mayonnaise anymore and is either dip or a dressing…….Isn’t it?

NEW – Sun Maid pure milk chocolate and peanut nutter covered raisins???? Might be good? Sounds better than birthday cake flavored …….any who-

NEW – Jet Puffed Bites – Marshmallows covered in sprinkles as Birthday cake, Chocolate covered and Chocolate mint covered…50/50……Might be good?

NEW Limited Time Only Available at Safeway…..Rockin Nut Road M&M’s…….My husband picked them up for me……….They taste sort of like peanut M&M’s that are an off batch…..Very similar but with an added OFF taste. My husband won’t eat them so I have to toss the bag out.

LIMITED EDITION – KitKat in fruity cereal flavor…..IDK? Some KitKats are good and some are not good…..I think if I wanted FORKING Fruity Cereal…I’d eat cereal and not a fruity cereal flavored KitKat….Well that’s just me….You might differ.

NEW – Drizzilicious – S’Mores mini rice cakes with dark chocolate drizzle….might be good! I bought the other flavor and it was good!

NEW – Drizzilicious – mini rice cakes with cinnamon swirl white chocolate drizzle…These surprised me….They really are good and only 90 calories for almost half the bag or 21 mini rice cakes.

DIFFERENT and possibly NEW – Ben & Jerry’s Justice Remix’d ice cream. It’s Cinnamon and chocolate ice creams with cinnamon bun dough and spicy fudge brownies. I think this ice cream would be so much better if they mixed in fresh baked cinnamon buns instead of raw cinnamon bun dough. I think raw cinnamon bun dough sounds HORRIBLE….LISTEN WORLD !!!!!! NOBODY FORKING EATS RAW CINNAMON BUN DOUGH. Someone must have been on drugs to think up this flavor.

There is always a New or Limited Edition Oreo Cookie.

LIMITED EDITION – Nabisco Oreo Cookies with THREE layers of cream AND popping candy…..so you can do banging farts that come out striped.

LIMITED EDITION – NBA Dy-Nasty….opps..my bad…….I mean Dynasty Oreos. Same old flavor. They just look different.

My Forking Thoughts on Universal Yums – Turkey 2021

Universal Yums is a gift or subscription service for a box of international snacks. You have a few different size choices.

I get the basic Yum Box and it comes with a booklet of facts, trivia, a recipe and information about my snacks.

Lets try a snack.

Ummmm…Now these are tasty! They are little cookies filled with a chocolaty filling that is laced with a small amount of hazelnut and tahini. These are tasty…Now they are gone.

We got a Yum bag with Mastic Toffees and Melon and Lime Chews.

Oh joy……..(not really)…Turkish sour watermelon gummies. I just don’t do gummies and ESPECIALLY Don’t FORKING do sour gummies. But I will ask my husband to eat one.

Next is a coconut & coffee snowball cake.

I like coconut but never liked coffee so far. I thought maybe I haven’t had good coffee yet and that is why I don’t like coffee? I tried two bites. I think I would like this if I liked coffee. The cake is moist with a nice texture and the exterior is very unique. The center cream isn’t terrible. I would like this if I liked coffee, Coffee just taste like bitter coffee grinds to me……

Next……

Baharat spiced cracker chips in taco flavor…??? They are odd to us….They are very powdery chippy crackers……..The powder texture sort of bothers me more than the odd flavors….They are very salty, they are onion-ee, there is sweetness to them, They finish very sweet….They sort of stick to my teeth.

Only two treats left….

Here’s tahini halva…..Not bad…It seems like light fluffy frosting that taste like sesame seeds instead of something too sweet.

Last treat

These are just plain chickpeas that are salted. These are GOOD! The texture doesn’t break my teeth like most bagged chickpea snacks. These you can actually eat in salad and do have a nice natural chickpea flavor. These I would buy if I saw in the store.

Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Universal Yums – Turkey 2021

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.

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.

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

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?

And now for something healthier.

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!

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.

The Forking Truth

My Forking Thoughts on Surati Cheddar Jalapeño flavored Potato Tubes

I found some different foreign snacks from Asiana Market in the Deer Valley part of Phoenix Arizona. Here are Surati Cheddar Jalapeño 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.
