Mmm…churros. They’re a staple at carnivals, amusement parks, sports stadiums, movie theaters, Renaissance Fairs, Civil War battle reenactments, and underground cockfights. But now you can get them any time you want, without having to pay admission, dress up in clothing with poofy shoulders, or choose whether you’re a part of the Union or [...]

There are a whole bunch of you who didn’t win the Twin Lotus Herbal Toothpaste from Thailand and are probably disappointed about that. But think of all the gagging you would’ve gone through if you had won. Think about the brown paste coming out of the tube and occasionally making farting sounds. [...]

According to the Oral-B Indicator Floss’ packaging: BLUE FLOSS effectively removes and reveals plaque. La SOIE DENTAIRE BLEUE enleve et revele la plaque de facon efficace. I’m not sure why blue floss is more effective than other colored floss when it comes to revealing and removing plaque, because I’ve used green and red floss and they [...]

(Editor’s Note: Today’s review was written by new TIB writer Reprobate, who you can read about here.) Ah…Subway, the only chain restaurant publicly endorsed by a formerly fat guy. I especially love their new marketing gimmick advertising the $5 footlong where everyone shows five fingers and then parts their hands about a foot apart. [...]

A new writer premieres at The Impulsive Buy and takes it to new heights…of lows, that is. I realize this opening smacks of cliché, but I couldn’t think of any other way to introduce myself as the new writer to this fine site. Hi, I’m Reprobate, a fan of the site since 2006, and for [...]

I’m waiting for Japan to come out with a Pepsi that tastes like Pepsi. (via Mike’s Blender) I’m going to eat these to avenge the death of Newman in Jurassic [...]

I’m a sucker for packaged foreign foods, like Mario is a sucker for gold coins and princesses who always get captured. It’s like I’m a less adventurous Anthony Bourdain, not willing to consume things that produces bodily fluids or things that are still alive. I’m not sure why I get a kick out of packaged [...]

Dipping a chicken patty into a sauce like you’re trying to get it to admit it’s a witch sounds like a great way to ensure there’s flavor in every bite, such is the case with the new Wendy’s Flavor-Dipped Chicken Sandwiches, but a sauce soaked piece of chicken is also a spectacular way to ruin [...]

Good news for people who love the idea of delivered food but hate eating Domino’s pizza! These oven-baked sandwiches are actually pretty tasty for something that comes from a nationwide pizza chain. That probably isn’t say much considering most new products from these companies usually involve various varieties of pizza dipped in ranch dressing, but [...]

Here are a few reviews from the past week posted on some of my favorite product reviews blogs not named The Impulsive Buy. Thank goodness Red Bull has finally decided to deviate from their usual boring missionary position flavor and get a little more kinky with their flavor choices. (via Gigi Reviews) I enjoy mochi ice [...]
