Here are some quick reviews of new-ish products we’re too lazy to write full reviews for:<\/i><\/p>\n

\"Wrigley's<\/a><\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Wrigley’s Hubba Bubba Dr Pepper Bubble Gum
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $1.49
\nSize:<\/b> 5 pieces
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Walgreens
\nRating:<\/b> 7 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Tastes almost like Dr Pepper. Soft chew when it has flavor. Flavor lasts for a few minutes. If I had the ability, I could blow bubbles the size of my head with this gum. Sweetened using sugar, corn syrup, and artificial sweeteners.
\nCons:<\/b> My inability to blow bubble gum bubbles bigger than my fist (I have small fists). Only five pieces. Not a soft chew after the flavor goes away; it gives my jaw a low impact workout. I feel like I need to brush my teeth after chewing it.
\nNutrition Facts:<\/b> N\/A
\nOther reviews:<\/b> TV and Gum Are Awesome<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Doritos<\/a><\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Doritos Jacked Ranch Dipped Hot Wings
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $3.50 (on sale)
\nSize:<\/b> 10 oz. bag
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Safeway
\nRating:<\/b> 7 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Pleasing tangy hot wing sauce flavor with a bit of creaminess. There’s a slight chicken flavor thanks to the ingredient chicken fat. Hearty crunch. Huge chips. New Doritos logo.
\nCons:<\/b> Red hue makes them look evil, but they aren’t very hot. Not as addictive as most other Doritos varieties. Smelling them will burn nostrils, just like real hot wings. Not for MSG haters.
\nNutrition Facts:<\/b> 1 oz. – 130 calories, 7 grams of fat, 1 gram of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 290 milligrams of sodium, 17 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, 0 grams of sugar, and 2 grams of protein.
\nOther reviews:<\/b> Junk Food Guy<\/a>, Brand Eating<\/a>, Chip Review<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Tostitos<\/a><\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Tostitos Cantina Thin & Crispy Tortilla Chips
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $3.00 (on sale)
\nSize:<\/b> 9 oz. bag
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Safeway
\nRating:<\/b> 6 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Tastes like other Tostitos tortilla chips. Simple ingredients. Crispy. With some Corona beers and these chips, you could make your Taco Bell meal seem like it’s from a cantina.
\nCons:<\/b> Tastes like other Tostitos tortilla chips. Too fragile for thicker salsas.
\nNutrition Facts:<\/b> 1 oz. – 150 calories, 8 grams of fat, 1 gram of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 110 milligrams of sodium, 18 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of fiber, and 2 grams of protein.
\nOther reviews:<\/b> Spoil Your Dinner<\/a> <\/p>\n

\"Burger<\/a><\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Burger King Loaded Tater Tots
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $2.99
\nSize:<\/b> 8 pieces
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Burger King
\nRating:<\/b> 6 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> At times, it kind of tastes like a loaded baked potato. Slightly crunchy exterior. Longer than BK’s Cheesy Tots. Better than Burger King’s fries. Available in 8, 10, or 12 pieces. BK’s changing menu.
\nCons:<\/b> Not a lot of bacon flavor and can’t taste the bacon at all in some tots. Light cheese flavor. Potatoes inside looked more like mashed potatoes than tater tots.<\/a> Not as satisfying as BK’s Cheesy Tots. Made with partially hydrogenated oil.
\nNutrition Facts:<\/b> 380 calories, 22 grams of fat, 7 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 640 milligrams of sodium, 36 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of sugar, and 10 grams of protein.
