\"kazaam\"\/<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m really skeptical about anything named Kazaam.<\/p>\n

I blame it on the 1996 movie starring professional basketball player Shaquille O\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Neal called “Kazaam.” It took away 90 minutes of my life that I will never EVER get back. It took away $6.50 that I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll never see again. It also made me start my mental list called \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Movies I Can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t Believe I Fricken\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Sat Through.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Kazaam\u00e2\u20ac\u009d was in the number one spot for several years, until it was replaced in 2003 by the American Idol flick “From Justin to Kelly.<\/p>\n

Damn, the things I’d do for a woman.<\/p>\n

The Rice Krispies Treats Kazaam Crunch are basically a chocolate dip away from being a Kudos Bar<\/a>, with its granola, rice krispies, and chocolate chips. I happened to get my hands on the caramel one, but they also come in cookies & cream and rainbow chip.<\/p>\n

They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re good. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re sweet. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re crunchy. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re glorified granola bars.<\/p>\n

Remember when granola was only eaten by dirty hippies who didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t believe in deodorant.<\/p>\n

I do.<\/p>\n

Damn, dirty hippies!<\/p>\n

Anyway, each box comes with eight bars and I went through all eight in two days. So they must be really good or I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m so bored that I have nothing else better to do than eat a box of Rice Krispies Treats Kazaam Crunch and watch Oprah.<\/p>\n

So there are three things I want you to remember from this review: (1) Rice Krispies Treats Kazaam Crunch is good. (2) Shaquille O\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Neal\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Kazaam\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is bad. (3) Hippies should use deodorant.<\/p>\n
