Limited Edition Dill Pickle Wheat Thins

I’m a big fan of Nabisco’s Dill Sea Salt & Olive Oil Triscuit, so I think these look dill-ightful, dill-icious, and dill-ectable. (Spotted by Nick at Hannaford.)

QUICK REVIEW: Panda Express Shiitake Kale Chicken Breast

Panda Express Shiitake Kale Chicken Breast

Purchased Price: $7.89 (2-entree plate)
Size: N/A
Purchased at: Panda Express
Rating: 6 out of 10
Pros: Panda Express’ healthiest chicken entree (lowest in fat, saturated fat, sodium), so if I feel guilty about getting Orange Chicken, I’ll feel less so if I order this as my second entree. Tender chicken. So much broccoli that they should’ve called it Broccoli Lovers Shiitake Kale Chicken Breast. If you drink too many smoothies and salads with kale, here’s a different way you can consume kale.
Cons: The gingery sauce didn’t really excite my taste buds. It has less sodium than most Panda Express entrees, but the sauce also has a really salty flavor, which made my taste buds a bit irritated. Shiitake mushrooms don’t bring anything to the flavor table. A slightly embarrassing amount of kale; I can get more kale for $1 at a farmer’s market when it’s closing.

QUICK REVIEW: Planters Cocoa Peanuts

Planters Cocoa Peanuts

Purchased Price: $1.99
Size: 6 oz.
Purchased at: Safeway
Rating: 7 out of 10
Pros: Peanuts are well coated in cocoa powder and stays on the peanuts. Mild cocoa flavor reminds me of hot cocoa powder. Smells like a Butterfinger. Honey and salt on peanuts also help give them a nice sweet and salty flavor. If your taste buds love the one-two punch of chocolate and peanut butter, they will like these. These will get me to eat more peanuts.
Cons: Comes in small six-ounce container, which is half the size of Planters standard cardboard containers. Occasionally, they’re a little too salty. Cleaning the cocoa powder on fingers is a mostly salty experience. If having too many sweeteners bother you, there are four in the ingredients list: sugar, honey, corn syrup, and fructose.
