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

\"Ha?agen-Dazs<\/a><\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Ha?agen-Dazs Peanut Butter Pie Ice Cream
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $3.99 (on sale)
\nSize:<\/b> 14 oz.
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Safeway
\nRating:<\/b> 9 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Rich peanut butter flavor that makes me want to spread it on a piece of bread and then top it with jelly. Holy crap! It’s loaded with chocolate cookie pieces and peanut butter ribbons<\/a>. Smooth ice cream. So much peanut butter flavor. So good it makes me wish it was a pint instead of 14 ounces.
\nCons:<\/b> Being limited edition. Those with peanut allergies, stay far away. Still only 14 ounces.
\nNutrition Facts:<\/b> 1\/2 cup – 310 calories, 21 grams of fat, 10 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 70 milligrams of cholesterol, 130 milligrams of sodium, 23 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, 19 grams of sugar, 7 grams of protein.<\/p>\n

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

Item:<\/b> Lean Cuisine Spa Collection Salmon with Basil (New Recipe)
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $3.50 (on sale)
\nSize:<\/b> 9 5\/8 oz.
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Safeway
\nRating:<\/b> 5 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Not completely horrible. Bland basil sauce. Decent sized piece of salmon. Awesome if you love peas! Lots of vegetables. It’s a new recipe, which means the previous recipe was worse than this.
\nCons:<\/b> It’s a new recipe, but I think they need another recipe. So many peas that they should rename it Lean Cuisine Spa Collections Peas with Salmon.<\/a> Salmon was a bit dry. Not enough basil sauce to coat pasta and salmon.
\nNutrition Facts:<\/b> 250 calories, 2.5 grams of fat, 0.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 1.5 grams of polyunsaturated fat, 0.5 grams of monounsaturated fat, 20 milligrams of cholesterol, 500 milligrams of sodium, 450 milligrams of potassium, 38 grams of carbohydrates, 4 grams of fiber, 6 grams of sugar, and 19 grams of protein.<\/p>\n

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

Item:<\/b> DiGiorno Pizzeria Primo Pepperoni Pizza
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $5.99 (on sale)
\nSize:<\/b> 18.7 oz.
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Safeway
\nRating:<\/b> 8 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Makes regular DiGiorno pepperoni pizza taste like swill. Lots of pepperoni evenly distributed.<\/a> No artificial flavors. Noticeable amounts of basil, oregano, and thyme that gave the pizza a nice herb flavor. Crispy crust. Preservative free crust. Sauce had a nice bold tomato flavor.
\nCons:<\/b> If it’s better than a regular DiGiorno pepperoni pizza, why keep selling that swill known as regular DiGiorno pepperoni pizza. As bad for you as DiGiorno’s regular pepperoni pizza. Cheese seems to be the same stuff from their regular pizzas.
\nNutrition Facts:<\/b> 1\/4 pizza – 340 calories, 130 calories from fat, 14 grams of fat, 6 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 30 milligrams of cholesterol, 800 milligrams of sodium, 39 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of fiber, 3 grams of sugar, and 14 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
