\"Lindt<\/p>\n

Lindt Dubai Style Chocolate Bar<\/h3>\n

Unless prices start going down, this might be my first and last Dubai-style chocolate bar. This bar, which was not that much bigger than a Left or Right Twix, was over six dollars. Yes, it shouldn\u2019t have been surprising since other Dubai Chocolate products on this site have had Dubai-ble, I mean, double-digit prices. Now that I\u2019ve tried it, I have to admit its flavor and textures are really great. However, I can\u2019t say I would regularly pay its price to experience them.<\/p>\n

\"Lindt<\/p>\n

The creamy Lindt chocolate pairs wonderfully with the even creamier, crispy pistachio-flavored filling. It\u2019s all like a melted milk chocolate Nestle Kit Kat with pistachio-flavored creme between the wafers. Oh geez, that last sentence almost convinced me it\u2019s all worth it. I could spend the six dollars on another bar, or spend it on a few bags of holiday-shaped Reese\u2019s after Christmas at 50 percent off. The latter sounds like a better deal.<\/p>\n

Liquid Death Severed Lime and Doctor Death<\/h3>\n

\"Liquid<\/p>\n

I\u2019m attempting to spear all the Liquid Death flavors. These two are the ones that readers said I should smash. Ugh. How does Liquid Death cram violent verbs into its names so easily? My fingers can\u2019t keep stabbing my keyboard to stuff violence into every sentence. Ugh. They\u2019re dead.<\/p>\n

Oh, they\u2019re alive again to type how much I enjoyed both sparkling water varieties with the right amount of flavor. Severed Lime has a light lemon-lime soda vibe, while Doctor Death has a Dr Pepper-like flavor. Although I got more recommendations for Severed Lime, I loved Doctor Death much more. But both make me regret not getting on the Liquid Death train earlier. So much hydration I missed out on. If you\u2019re not into Bubly or La Croix because you want more flavor from your sparkling water, Liquid Death will give you what you want. Now that I\u2019ve consumed and liked three flavors, I want to buy all the different variety packs on Amazon.<\/p>\n

Nerds Strawberry Punch Juicy Gummy Clusters<\/h3>\n

\"Nerds<\/p>\n

As I mentioned many times on this site, Nerds Gummy Clusters surprised me. I didn\u2019t think something as simple as sticking Nerds candy to a gummy would be so pleasing. But after trying it, I was hooked. Since its introduction, other flavors have been introduced, all of which are great. However, I think its latest evolution makes it even better.<\/p>\n

\"Nerds<\/p>\n

Think of these as Gushers candy inside a Nerds coating, but with a better gummy candy. The liquid-filled candy creates larger clusters and gives the candy three levels of texture: chewy, crunchy, and gooey. I absolutely love chewing on these. Then there\u2019s the flavor. Nerds have a sourness to them, but the gummy candy and its filling amp up the sweetness, giving the candy an almost equal balance between sour and sweet. It\u2019s a difficult candy for me to put down. This should be the default Nerds Gummy Clusters.<\/p>\n

Too Good & Co Sweet Cream Coffee Creamer<\/h3>\n

\"Too<\/p>\n

After trying to gain some market share in the crowded yogurt market, next to its cousin, Dannon, Too Good & Co is now attempting to get into the crowded-but-not-as-crowded-as-yogurt coffee creamer game next to its cousin, International Delight. I guess it\u2019s competing with Coffee mate\u2019s Natural Bliss line.<\/p>\n

Along with this Sweet Cream flavor, there are also Lavender (seasonal) and Roasted Vanilla varieties. The creamers are made with real milk, have 40% less sugar than leading coffee creamers, and have no artificial sweeteners, artificial flavors, added gums, oils, or preservatives, and come in small 25.4-ounce cartons.<\/p>\n

As someone who buys mainly sugary coffee creamers with artificial flavors, added gums, oils, or preservatives, and sometimes artificial sweeteners in 32-ounce bottles, I enjoyed the mild but sweet taste and the creaminess from this Too Good & Co creamer. But I wouldn\u2019t replace my usual choices with it. Much like the Natural Bliss line, price is an issue. These natural products are more expensive. And on top of that, it comes in a smaller bottle.<\/p>\n

Bloom Pop Limited Edition Winter Pomberry Soda<\/h3>\n

\"Bloom<\/p>\n

Is this supposed to be pomegranate- and cranberry-flavored? I ask because it tastes like a cranberry soda to me. And I\u2019m pretty sure the “pom” in pomberry isn\u2019t for pomelo. The ingredient list says it has cranberry juice, but no pomegranate juice. However, it does have pear juice. Maybe the “P” in pomberry stands for pear, while the “om” stands for something else. Of course, all of this confusion could\u2019ve been avoided if this soda\u2019s flavor were called cranagranate, which is a 100 percent better name than pomberry. Om well. Anyhoo, this tasty cranberry-flavored soda has prebiotics and a tiny amount of sugar, but no fiber, which is a bummer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
