If you\u2019re not familiar, DJ Khaled is a musician whose catchphrase is \u201cAnother one!\u201d (Interestingly enough, that\u2019s my catchphrase too, but unlike the good DJ, who uses it whenever he releases a new hit song, I just use it when ordering more novelty junk food.) \u201cAnother Bun\u201d is then, of course, a spin on that alludes to the drink\u2019s cinnamon bun flavoring.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-65256\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun2.jpeg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun2.jpeg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun2.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun2.jpeg?resize=60%2C60&amp;ssl=1 60w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun2.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Said cinnamon flavor was on full olfactory display when I screwed off the top from my bottle and was met by a delicious churro-y smell. Aroma-wise, Another Bun was on point, though I was slightly caught off guard by its appearance. I expected a deeper, darker brown, but the color is more off-white. It looks more like frosting than a bun itself. But as they say, don\u2019t judge a bun by its color. Or was that don\u2019t judge a milk by its cover? In any case, I quickly dispensed with the judging and commenced with the tasting.<\/p>\n<p>Remember those unrealistic expectations I had for what the drink would look like? Well, I\u2019m sorry to say that maybe my judgmental attitude was warranted after all because I was similarly underwhelmed by the flavor. I was expecting a buttery, indulgent, almost overpowering sweetness like that of a Cinnabon. However, this reminded me more of the dry, nearly tasteless cinnamon bun that I was recently served at a fancy but stuffy caf\u00e9. Listen, subtle flavors have their time and place, but I just don\u2019t think they\u2019re a fit for any product whose mascot is a totally rad life-size rabbit!<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-65257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun3.jpeg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun3.jpeg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun3.jpeg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nqanobun3.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>What I\u2019m saying is I wanted more from Another Bun. It gets points for its smooth, creamy texture and fundamental decentness, but it just didn\u2019t taste very different to me than Nesquik\u2019s existing vanilla variety. Yes, there was a hint of nice cinnamon-y warmth and spice, but it wasn\u2019t strong enough to override the primary flavor: milk. Specifically, weirdly artificial-tasting milk. I wish I could compare this to the Cinnamilk left at the bottom of a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but it reminded me more of that hard-to-put-a-finger-on-but-impossible-to-ignore synthetic tang of a bottled protein shake. After searching through what felt like an endless amount of beverage coolers to find this flavor (was DJ Khaled\u2019s persistent shouting of \u201cAnother one!\u201d actually just foreshadowing how many stores I\u2019d have to go to to buy the dang thing?), I was disappointed by how mild and unmemorable it was, especially in comparison to DJ Khaled\u2019s ostentatious personality. I do have to admit that the art on the bottle is absolutely awesome, but it\u2019s probably not a great thing for a consumable product when the best part about it is its disposable packaging!<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, even if I could track this thing down again, I would not purchase \u201cAnother one!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $2.99<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 14 fl oz bottle <br \/>\n<strong>Purchased at:<\/strong> 7-Eleven <br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 5 out of 10 <br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (per bottle) 260 calories,4.5 grams of fat, 190 milligrams of sodium, 41 grams of carbohydrates, 39 grams of sugar, and 14 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to one of his more famous songs, all DJ Khaled does is win, win, win, no matter what.
