QUICK REVIEW: Panda Express Golden Szechuan Fish

/ / Reviews

Panda Express Golden Szechuan Fish

Purchased Price: $9.57 (2-entree plate with premium)
Size: N/A
Purchased at: Panda Express
Rating: 5 out of 10
Pros: It’s Panda Express’ first fish product that’s been rolled out nationwide (They’ve been testing other fish dishes over the past few years). Tender, flaky fish with a pleasant fishy flavor. Sugar peas were crispy. Made with 100 percent wild-caught North Pacific Cod. Edges of battered fish were still crispy even though it was sitting in sauce on the drive home.
Cons: Having to pay a $1.25 premium for it; doesn’t taste like it’s worth the additional cost. Szechuan sauce tastes watered down and is more spicy than flavorful. The fish itself has a stronger flavor than the sauce. Ugh…Enough with the red bell peppers; it seems like it’s in 75 percent of Panda’s entrees.

Sriracha Pringles

Why hello there, sriracha bandwagon jumper, who I thought would jump on the bandwagon much sooner than this. (Spotted by Dustin at Walmart.)

Here are some interesting new and limited edition products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers. If you’ve tried any of the products, share your thoughts about them in the comments.

Talenti Caramel Apple Pie Gelato

I’m poking my computer’s monitor with a spoon because of this photo. WANT! On Second Scoop has a review. (Spotted by Josh at Target.)

Edy's Ourshine Fruit & Veggie Bars

Are those beets? If so, I feel sorry for beets because they aren’t in the flavor’s name. There’s Tangerine Carrot, but no Blueberry Beet. Dwight Schrute would not approve. (Spotted by Lindsay at Target.)

Edy's Seasonal Picks Grapefruit Outshine Fruit Bars

These are available until March, so after that you’ll just have to enjoy regular grapefruit. (Spotted by Lindsay at Target.)

Blueberry Acai Starbucks Refreshers

Thank goodness there’s a new Starbucks Refreshers flavor. I bet folks were getting sick of the other flavors. (Spotted by Charmi at Walmart.)

Cape Cod White Cheddar and Kettle Corn Popcorn

Cape Cod White Cheddar Popcorn isn’t new, but due to popular demand the company brought it back. Kettle Corn is new, which seems strange because if Cape Cod had popcorn before wouldn’t they have had kettle corn. It seems like an obligatory popcorn flavor. (Spotted by Leah at Walmart.)

Ha?agen-Dazs Tiramisu Gelato

The Häagen-Dazs Caramelized Banana Chip Gelato makes me miss Häagen-Dazs Bananas Foster ice cream. Oh wait. Just learned it’s a 7-Eleven exclusive. (Spotted by Josh at Target.)

It was surprising to learn TCBY bought Mrs. Fields years ago, which makes it even more surprising they didn’t pair the two earlier. But it was even more surprising to learn TCBY and Mrs. Fields still exist. (via PR Newswire)
