Calbee KFC Potato Chips

Not to be confused with these Calbee/KFC potato chips, this new variety has the flavor of the colonel’s secret recipe with a hint of soy sauce and garlic.

Black truffle oil? Risotto? Fancy schmancy, Popchips! Chip Review tried them. (Spotted by Dustin at Costco.)

Atkins Endulge Chocolate Candies

I’m disappointed there isn’t an “A” printed in white on each piece. Or the word “carbs” with a strikethrough. (Spotted by Michael at Schuncks.)

Airborne Gummies

I like to call Airborne, “Airplane,” because I’ve only taken it before walking into the recycled air-filled fuselage of airplanes. (Spotted by Marvo at Target.)

QUICK REVIEW: Tyson Day Starts Sausage Egg & Cheese Biscuit

Tyson Day Starts Sausage Egg & Cheese Biscuit

Purchased Price: $6.49 (on sale)
Size: 4 sandwiches
Purchased at: Safeway
Rating: 4 out of 10
Pros: Better tasting than a bowl of corn flakes. In real life, it looks almost exactly like it does on its packaging. Faster to heat than other breakfast sandwiches, like Jimmy Dean and Special K (45-60 seconds faster). They’re simpler to heat too; just throw the sandwich pouch on to a microwaveable plate (other sandwiches have you wrap it in a paper towel first) and then throw into microwave.
Cons: Not the most flavorful way to start your day. Biscuit has an un-biscuity texture; it’s like a combination of a hamburger bun and buttermilk biscuit. Buttermilk biscuit also has an odd flavor. Yes, it’s a reduced fat sausage, but the sandwich still has 60 percent of your daily saturated fat and 37 percent of your daily fat. Sausage patty doesn’t have a lot of flavor. Eggs lack any butteriness. Not knowing Tyson produces more than chicken products.
