Rice Krispies Treats Kazaam Crunch

By Marvo | December 8, 2004

Kazaam Crunch

Editor’s Note: Oh, sorry for the late review today. If you read yesterday’s review, you’ll understand when I say, “Withdrawals suck.”

I’m really skeptical about anything named Kazaam.

I blame it on the 1996 movie starring professional basketball player Shaquille O’Neal called ”Kazaam”. It took away 90 minutes of my life that I will never EVER get back. It took away $6.50 that I’ll never see again. It also made me start my mental list called “Movies I Can’t Believe I Fricken’ Sat Through.”

“Kazaam” was in the number one spot for several years, until it was replaced in 2003 by the American Idol flick “From Justin to Kelly.”

Damn, the things I’d do for a woman.

The Rice Krispies Treats Kazaam Crunch are basically a chocolate dip away from being a Kudos Bar, with its granola, rice krispies, and chocolate chips. I happened to get my hands on the caramel one, but they also come in cookies & cream and rainbow chip.

They’re good. They’re sweet. They’re crunchy. They’re glorified granola bars.

Remember when granola was only eaten by dirty hippies who didn’t believe in deodorant.

I do.

Damn, dirty hippies!

Anyway, each box comes with eight bars and I went through all eight in two days. So they must be really good or I’m so bored that I have nothing else better to do than eat a box of Rice Krispies Treats Kazaam Crunch and watch Oprah.

So there are three things I want you to remember from this review: (1) Rice Krispies Treats Kazaam Crunch is good. (2) Shaquille O’Neal’s “Kazaam” is bad. (3) Hippies should use deodorant.

    You tell me not to see this movie, but yet, there is an Amazon link to buy it? Is this some kind of mind game? :D

    Aymie - I put the link there in case people want to find out for themselves how bad Kazaam was.

    Kazaam, the movie, was terrible, I must agree. Anything other than basketball that Shaq lends his name to has had a bitter taste ever since.

    I saw how bad Kazzam (the movie) was for myself.

    And now I want a rice crispy treat. Just one of the average ones though.

    Oh, and thanks for the “cute” compliment for Haruko. But she’s not as big as the pictures make her look. She’s actually the smallest of my 4 rats, and smaller than alot of rats her age.

    Her daddy, however, is GI-NORMUS!
