My local Sprouts Grocery sells a lot of snacks that I never noticed at my old Sprouts around Phoenix that I used to shop at. I picked up these Pineapple Habanero White Carrot Chips because I previously bought Sprouts Hot Honey Beet Chips that were delicious so I thought these Carrot Chips have a chance on being delicious too!
I open it up.
I take a whiff….Don’t really smell much of anything.
I gobble one down…ICK it’s very salty……
I let sit in my mouth till it melts this time.
I do get the habanero. But it’s salty habanero.
WOW! That last chip was extra spicy…ouch.
There is a slight hint of sweetness but it’s so faint that it is hard to identify as pineapple.
The flavors are too unbalanced to enjoy unless you are a fan of very salty and extra spicy.
I should throw them out!
Not a fan of Sprouts Pineapple Habanero White Carrot Chips.
I haven’t bought a bag of plain M&M’s in a long time until today…..I tried a few and instantly I noticed a difference………They don’t feel or taste the same in my mouth……..I know they are smaller…….I noticed less chocolate when I suck the shells off. Also the ratio is different………Less chocolate makes them seem more sweet and less chocolatey. Then I let my husband try some. He said, “are these the tiny ones?”…..WTFork! Then I went to the internet and found this from wwwFasioncoached.com.
I also found this.
In May 2014 I noticed a few changes in Peanut M&M’s and so far 16 wrote to me and agreed.
This is my May 2014 photo of Peanut M&M’s (above and below)
I happened to pick of some peanut M&M’s recently. Let’s see if they are similar to the 2014 ones. (the photo below)
You know…I think they are even slightly smaller than before……
I found Calbe My Pote White Truffle Premium Potato Chips at my local Seafood City (A California-based Filipino Supermarket Chain) They caught my eye and the ingredients don’t look too bad so I thought I’d give this small bag a try.
Oh WoW! They are made with French Grey sea salt. That salt is very expensive….Ummmm don’t really know what the truffle flavor really is…..Usually artificial is called truffle essence…..maybe they are being tricky here? I’ll try them anyway.
I open the bag up and take a whiff.
I don’t get truffle but I do get a really strong but good potato smell that I don’t usually get when I open a bag of chips…….Like a smell I get when I make mashed potatoes.
I try a chip…They look a little different and seem to have a little bit of skin on them. They are also small, extra thin, and seem free of oil.
Now I taste one……….They do have more potato flavor than what you usually get in a potato chip that are laced with a little bit of truffle taste and are extra lightly salted. But they also seem extra dry. They are different.
Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Calbee My Pote White Truffle Premium Potato Chips I do note that your FORKING Thoughts may indeed differ.
There is always something NEW, weird, different, limited or special edition when we shop for food. We never know WTFork that we will come across when we shop for food.
Up above is-
LIMITED EDITION – Sprite in Winter Spiced Cranberry. Sounds tasty and festive…But you cran-berry taste the lemon/lime now.
NEW – Tootsie Roll candy coated mini bites…….Candy coated candy! MORE calories and more business for dentists!
NEW – M&M’s dark and milk chocolate espresso candies. Kids do eat more candy than adults……Like how many kids drink espresso? Not sure how well this one will sell.
DIFFERENT and maybe NEW – Twix salted caramel cookie bars. Maybe they ran ut of wafers?
NEW – Reese’s Snack Cakes (sorry but this doesn’t look like picture and is not recommended by me)

DIFFERENT – Kit Kat – Blueberry muffin. We’ll see when I get the nerve to try it.
DIFFERENT and Maybe NEW and Maybe? Limited Edition – Twix Silly Rabbit turned the milk pink…….The thought of that makes me gag. Did the silly rabbit have a cut finger? or a bloody nose? Also what happened to the Twix? They look like springtime flowers.
NEW and DIFFERENT – Kellogg’s Avatar Pandora Frosted Flakes with Blueberry Flavored Blue Moons. They are naturally with OTHER natural flavors???? What on EARTH can the OTHER natural flavors be?
LIMITED EDITION – Wakanda Forever Baked Goldfish Snack Crackers……???? I don’t see anything different about the crackers?……Just a Special Edition Paper Bag they come in.
SPECIAL TAILGATE EDITION – Kettle Buffalo Bleu potato chips. I did try them. They are not bad…..My husband thought they just taste like BBQ……..These you have to slow to get all the flavors…When I eat them very slow or lick them I can taste the buffalo and get an after taste of the bleu……….a few days latter……. THEY TASTE COMPLETELY different as you eat more…..They get FORKING HOT……really HOT…..Like make you gag and cough hot….YUK! These are more flavored as you go down in the bag. I stopped eating them.
DIFFERENT – Snyder’s of Hanover artificially flavored Jalapeño pretzel pieces. I bought these hoping that they would taste good……..Oddly they don’t taste like pretzels or jalapeños…….?
NEW and WEIRD – Heinz Beanz Pizza ,,LOL! Beans on a pizza what will they come up with next?
DIFFERENT – Latin Specialties – Tejocotes – Mexican Hawthorn Apples….They are very small apples that are seldom found at our usual supermarkets.

There is always something new, weird, different, limited, or special edition in the wonderful world of food. We just never know WTFork we will come across when we shop for food.
Up above is
DIFFERENT and kind of WEIRD – General Mills Jurassic Park Trix Trax Cereal with marshmallows…….I haven’t eaten this cereal in many decades but it sure looks like they added marshmallows……I have no idea why…..I just don’t know why so many breakfast cereals contain marshmallows……I also noticed that this cereal looks far more saturated with food coloring…..You know what that means….If you eat this you are going to POOP a rainbow.
LIMITED EDITION – Cap’n Crunch’s Red White & Blue Crunch Cereal that is star shaped….I think that this cereal must be a leftover from the 4th of July….It is also pretty darn colorful….Might make you fart fireworks.
NEW – Kellogg’s Naturally & Artificially flavored Frosted Flakes of Corn that are suppose to be cinnamon French toast flavored. As a kid I wanted my Frosted Flakes to taste like Frosted Flakes…..This is strange…….I would eat French Toast if I wanted French Toast. Maybe this cereal can do harm to children’s minds and they become cereal criminals?
DIFFERENT and maybe NEW and Scary – Kellogg’s Frosted Mini Wheats in Little Bites…..The box reads half the size all the flavor. That mini wheat little bite on the box looks like it might eat children……
DIFFERENT and maybe NEW …also SCARY – Kellogg’s High Fiber Blueberry Muffin Frosted Mini Wheats that are naturally and artificially flavored. That mini wheat on the box looks more like a killer Brillo Pad.
NEW – General Mills with natural and OTHER natural flavors (Now WTFORK does that mean?….something like natural vanilla and something like natural dog poo?) Honey Vanilla Cheerios whole grain oat cereal. …..
DIFFERENT – General Mills Caramel and OTHER Natural flavors Dulce de Leche toast crunch. Lower right crunch cartoon guy looks like he is throwing up….Not a good look for this box.
NEW – General Mills Natural and Artificially Flavored Cinnamon toast crunch rolls. Sounds very fattening. Might give you rolls of fat if they really taste like cinnamon rolls?
NEW – General Mills CinnaGram Toast Crunch. ????? Sounds funny …..like you are sending something awful to someone………..like Sin-OH-Gram.
DIFFERENT – Cap’n Crunch’s ARTIFICIALLY FLAVORED Chocolate Caramel Crunch…Jeepers how good can that be?
LIMITED EDITION – Kellogg’s Special K Pumpkin Spice that is naturally flavored with OTHER natural flavors….The natural flavors sound ok but the OTHER natural flavors do frighten me…What could they be?????? Cat vomit? Elephant farts? Anteater boogers?
LIMITED EDITION – Nonni’s Biscotti in dark chocolate pumpkin and pumpkin spice. They sound tasty but I don’t know if they are.
NEW – PoP-Farts – My Bad I mean Pop-Tarts. These are Snickerdoodle ARTIFICIALLY flavored and proudly baked in the USA toaster pastries. (gag!)
Different and maybe NEW – Haagan – Dazs Dulce De Leche Churro Ice Cream Bars and Haagen – Dazs Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzel ice cream bars. Ummmmm They both sound good…I might have to break down someday and try some…?
I saw a few different snack foods for dogs that I never saw before
DIFFERENT – Dentley’s chicken feet….I was thinking that my dogs would really love to eat chicken feet….but they were from over seas and I wasn’t sure if ok……
DIFFERENT – Dentley’s Thai Chews with coconut and fish skin…….Who knew that you could buy Thai food for your dog? Also from over seas. I try to buy only dog treats made in the USA.
SPECIAL EDITION – Pringles Glow in the dark Cheddar-rrrrrrrrr and Sour Scream and Onion. Why would you want to eat glow in the dark food? It probably makes you glow in the dark poop.
LIMITED EDITION – Crafty Cooking Kits – Spider Web pretzel kit.I found them at Big Lots but I bet you can find them on the web.
So there is usually something Oreo.
DIFFERENT – Nabisco Dark Chocolate Oreo Cream Cookies.
Different – Nabisco Peanut Butter Flavor Cream Oreo Cookies
Well that was the NEW, WEIRD, DIFFERENT, Limited and Special Edition Foods for October 2022. Who knows WTFork we’ll come across next month.
I spotted this White Chocolate Lemon Meringue Bar at my local AJ’s Fine Foods and I had to try it.
I open it up carefully. I attempted to break off one brick….That didn’t work.
These bars have lots of filling and the white chocolate is very delicate and almost soft.
I taste the broken ends. The lemony part is really great and sure does taste like really good lemon meringue filling…Like the right tart and the right sweet……the right amount of lemon……….The white chocolate is pretty good for white chocolate but it does end with a sweet finish like it should like some meringue. (I hate when meringue taste like egg whites…ick)
I think that this flavor is pretty good but they’ve forgotten that lemon meringue is a pie and should have some crumbs for crust. A few slightly salted cookie crumbs on the bottom would have balanced it all really well………But it is still pretty good anyway.
Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Hammond’s Lemon Meringue White Chocolate Bar. Your FORKING Thoughts may indeed differ.
The Reese’s Big Cup with potato chips have been out for a while but today I finally broke down and tried one.
I open it up.
Mine is slightly defective. I don’t want to know what it’s been though.
I cut it in half.
Lets take a closer look.
At first I thought that they left out the chips but I can see some in there……..
I start on the end.
Wow…that is a good amount of Reese’s chocolate….I never had that much before….I kinda like that……..
Now for a bite into the peanut butter. The peanut butter taste good like it normally does….but……
Not what I was expecting…
SUPER CRISP CRUNCHY HARD small pieces of wavy or ridged potato chips that are tasteless but so crunchy that they seem like coated with something like ceramic. I have no idea how they sucked out all the flavor from the chips? I also have no idea how they got them so oddly hard like ceramic. I was almost worried that I could damage my teeth.
I pulled one out of my mouth.
They’re not bad…….I think the best part is the thick chocolate that you wouldn’t normally get with a Reese’s…..For a Big Cup they really aren’t so big and are less than 200 calories (180 to be exact). If you don’t mind super hard crunches in your Reese’s cup they are pretty good…..but the chips are strange and for me too crunchy……..I was afraid I’d damage a filling or chip a tooth. I will go chipless next time.
Those were my FORKING Thoughts on Reese’s Potato Chips Big Cup. Your FORKING Thoughts on Reese’s Potato Chips Big Cup may indeed differ.

Up above are –
DIFFERENT – Ikea Festlight pickled mushroom potato chips……..Never did I come across pickled mushroom potato chips. They sure are different.
DIFFERENT – Ikea Festlight pepper and leek flavor potato chips…These ar only slightly different because we see chive and onion a lot and we also see pepper. But still I haven’t actually noticed leek before so that is just enough to be different.
LIMITED EDITION – Van Leeuwen – Wild Blueberry Shortcake….??? Might be delicious if you are in the mood for LITTLE blueberry. (Get it?…Wild blueberries are very small)
LIMITED EDITION – Van Leeuwen – Kraft Macaroni & Cheese French Ice Cream…I’m not a big fan of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese so I doubt this one will do it for me but if the little blue box does it for you then please go and indulge.
Limited EDITION – Van Leeuwan Royal Wedding Cake with Elderflower & Lemon French Ice Cream. You can get the last lick of a royal wedding with this flavor of ice cream.

NEW – Capt’n Crunch’s artificially flavored Berrytastic pancake mix……..(ick and it’s scary looking too!)
NEW – Capt’n Crunch’s Ocean Blue Dish soap……OOPs! I mean artificially ocean blue maple syrup……….Gosh no wonder why there are so many whack jobs out there……

WEIRD – Mrs. Butterworth’s EPIC Post Fruity Pebbles Pancake Mix. This is not what sweet dreams are made of. Just add water and get a nightmare.
DIFFERENT – Lorissa’s Kitchen – Korean Barbecue Beef Jerky. Sounds tasty…might be good…or just jerky……but not Jamaican Jerky.
DIFFERENT (and expensive around $9.@) Jcoco Chocolate Bars in Crisp Quinoa Sesame, Black Fig Pistachio, and Boharat Spice. They are different!
DIFFERENT – Love Cocoa by James Cadbury…..Strawberry Champagne White Chocolate…..Every bar is a donation for one tree. Sounds great and buying a tree is wonderful.
DIFFERENT – Ikea Beloning milk chocolate with lingonberries…Sounds tasty to me!
DIFFEERENT – Ikea Beloning milk chocolate with wild blueberries. This one also sounds delicious to me!
NEW – Kellogg’s Corn Flakes with Cinnamon…Now that one sounds good…Corn Flakes were always boring.
NEW – Tropicana – Crunch cereal crunchy almond cereal made for O J (OJ Simson?) instead of milk…? ???????????
NEW – Hostess Boost JUMBO caffeinated donettes………in (my least favorite flavor of all time) Chocolate Mocha and Caramel Macchiato……..I don’t know??? It gets weird when they add caffeine to junk food……just saying.
Not always but there usually is some sort of new or limited edition Oreo Cookie.
LIMITED EDITION – Nabisco Firework Oreo Cookies with POPPING Candy. Maybe these Oreo cookies make you fart fireworks?
Well that was the NEW, WEIRD, DIFFERENT, limited and special edition foods out there for May 2022. Who knows WTFork I’ll come across next month.
I was food shopping at my local Fry’s supermarket and came across these Kroger Reuben Potato Chips…….I thought to myself I gotta try them. I glance real fast at the ingredients to make sure nothing really strange is in them.
They do have some chemicals in them……
Then I happen to notice that the chips are marked kosher and dairy.
I can be now be relieved that they aren’t made with castoreum (beaver butt juice actually from a gland by the butt) because beavers are not a kosher animal to eat. Castoreum is never listed as an ingredient because it is a flavoring. It is listed as natural flavor because that is what it is.
I get the bag home and take a whiff.
It truly DOES SMELL LIKE A REUBAN!
Incase you are not familiar with a reuben it is a sandwich made of corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, Russian dressing on grilled rye bread or Russian pumpernickel.
The chips are slightly speckled, a little powdery, and are extra crisp.
I gobble a few down……
They are very tasty but at first they taste mostly like mild sauerkraut …….it maybe only slightly cheesy and laced slightly with a rye bread taste.
I eat one very slowly and it taste completely different.
When you eat them slowly you get the rye taste dominating the other flavors.
They are very tasty and extra crunchy.
Those were my Forking Thoughts on Kroger Reuben Potato Chips.
There is always something new, weird, different, limited, or special edition out there in the wonderful world of food. We just never know WTFork we will come across when we shop for food.

NEW – Quaker Oats instant grits in hot & spicy jalapeño cheddar that is naturally & artificially flavored……????…..is it the jalapeño or the cheddar that is the artificial flavor?????? Or maybe it’s a combination of both…ugh!
