Do the kiddos still use the word \u201cepic\u201d? I\u2019m asking for a friend because, obviously, I know the answer because I\u2019m totally cool. Wait. Do the kiddos still use the word \u201ccool\u201d? Anyhoo, Pepperidge Farm is using the word that may or may not be hip to help name its latest crunchy fish-shaped snack \u2014- Goldfish Epic Crunch.<\/p>\n
According to the packaging, the snack has a tortilla crunch and big flavor, and that \u201cbig flavor\u201d is available in three varieties \u2014 Ranch, Nacho, and Honey BBQ. While Ranch and Nacho have graced the surface area of previous Goldfish, Honey BBQ appears to be a first for the snack.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The hollow pieces are more massive than regular Goldfish, and they do have an epic crunch that reminds me of rolled tortilla chips, but they don\u2019t have epic flavor.<\/p>\n They\u2019re not completely tasteless, but the seasonings are light in flavor, and they fade quickly, leaving behind mostly the whole grain tortilla base to torture my taste buds until I eat more.<\/p>\n The reason why these don\u2019t do it for me is because, with all three varieties, they\u2019re like diet versions of some of my favorite snacks. Ranch reminds me of Cool Ranch Doritos; Nacho evokes Nacho Cheese Doritos; and Honey BBQ brings to mind Fritos Honey BBQ Flavor Twists (the best Fritos, IMO). I’d rather have the tasty goodness of the originals than diet versions.<\/p>\n However, much like Cool Ranch and Nacho Cheese Doritos, eating Goldfish Epic Crunch will lead to getting the seasoning on your fingers, which will turn your digits into savory suckers after you\u2019re done eating. Although, it\u2019s not as potent as what you\u2019d get from Doritos. But, if you think about it, whatever seasoning ends up on your fingers won\u2019t be on the Goldfish, which is where it needs to be.<\/p>\n My unscientific guess at how much lighter the taste is to those classic snacks would be about 50 percent, which is not strong enough to compel me to keep sticking my hand into the bag to catch more of these Goldfish. I wish they were, to use a Pepperidge Farm trademark, Flavor Blasted.<\/p>\n Overall, Pepperidge Farm\u2019s Goldfish Epic Crunch is something I wouldn\u2019t try again. With regular cheddar Goldfish, the salty and cheesiness makes me want to keep stuffing my mouth with them. But I don\u2019t want to do that with these. They do have an epic crunch, but their flavor is wiggity wiggity wack.<\/p>\n Do the kiddos still use \u201cwiggity wiggity wack\u201d?<\/p>\n DISCLOSURE:<\/strong> I received a free sample of the product.
