Knott's Berry Farm Knotts Raspberry Shortbread Premium Quality Cookies (Pack of 8) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you're here because you love the little 2-pack snacks of Knott's Berry Farm Premium Raspberry Shortbread Cookies distributed on United Airlines international flights... well, you're in for a HUGE disappointment. Yes, both are made by Knott's Berry Farm. Yes, the picture of the cookies on these packets look exactly like the cookies distributed by United. NO, the cookies are NOT the same.

Although the size of the cookies are the same, the raspberry filling in the center of the cookies are VERY DIFFERENT. The cookies sold here have only half the filling of the cookies distributed by United, and the filling of the cookies sold here is tougher, not as fresh, and less chewy than that of the filling of the cookies distributed by United. It is a significant enough difference between the two cookies, and I am utterly shocked that Knott's Berry Farm is willing to sell these two different cookies under the same name and similar packaging.

Lay's Potato Chips, Salt & Vinegar, 1.5-Ounce Large Single Serve Bags (Pack of 64) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)All the local grocery stores/chain stores used to carry Lays Salt and Vinegar chips - which are my husband and daughter's favorite! Then they were NO where to be found!! I live in LARGE metropolitan area in TEXAS!!! I wrote to Frito-Lay - and they were NOT helpful - they just said "not all items are available in all markets and you cannot direct order"

Doing a search for the individual packs of Baked Lays for school lunches (another impossible to find item) - I found these! My family is sooooo happy!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Uranus Crunch - Nori Maki (mochi crunch) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I normally don't eat anything I can't pronounce. This rules out any sort of Hawaaian food - unless, like this product, they give it a pronounceable nickname. It's difficult figuring out how to say "mochi", but I'll bet "Uranus" rolls right off your tongue. A perfect treat to whip out when you have unexpected company.

Soken Fat-Free Ramen, Wasabi with Green Tea Noodles, 3-Ounce Packets (Pack of 12) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wanted to give this 2.5 stars but that isn't possible.If you are in the mood for Ramen, great, but if you are actually going after the flavors of wasabi or green tea, it's not really there.Even the package says the following:

Soken Wasabi Ramen is Fat Free natural food at it's finest.Delicate non-fried noodles (with green tea) are combined with a sumptuous broth of salt and wasabi (Japanese horseradish) to create this gourmet delight.

It says salt broth.And it says they are noodles with green tea not green tea noodles.

To put it in perspective green tea is the fourth listed ingredient in the noodles (spinach comes before green tea) and each package is 2.5 servings with each serving giving you930 mg of sodium (39% of your daily amount)the total package is 97.5%.It really is a salt broth.The Wasabi comes in a small packet and with all the salt, really does not stand out.At most you almost taste it as it is going down, but not enough for it to even be a refreshing after though.

Basically, this ramen is great if you are in the mood for salty foods, though I find the broth too salty to consume so whatever coats the noodles is what gets eaten.If you are looking for a nice unique flavor though, this is not it.

Kettle Chips, Yogurt & Green Onion, 5-Ounce Bags (Pack of 15) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you've ever had a Kettle chip then you know that these are some of the best if not the best chips made in terms of quality, crunch and flavor. If you've never had them, you don't know what you're missing. So I will just review the flavor.

This yogurt thing seems like kind of a gimmick to me.Yes yogurt is in the ingredients but I can't really taste it.Then again yogurt doesn't really have much a flavor anyway except kind of like milk.It's the fruit in yogurt that gives it flavor.Many flavors of chips have milk as an ingredient so I don't see much of anything new here.To me these just taste like sour cream & onion chips. Albeit very, very good sour cream & onion chips. Sour cream is even one of the ingredients listed.Kettle chips also makes a sour cream & onion flavor although it doesn't seem to be sold by amazon at the moment.I am curios as to which of these two flavors are better. So these are great sour cream & onion chips that have some yogurt in there somewhere.

All yogurt should be this lucky Light and breezy, these chips are a little different -- a hint of onion, a swirl of creamy yogurt, wrapped up in a crunch you can write home about.

Mr. Z Premium Cuts Beef Jerky Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I liked this jerky. It's got a good flavor, the pieces are a nice size and texture, and it's from grass-fed beef (no organic claims, however). It's imported from Brazil. The price seems to be comparable with grocery store prices, although I liked it better than the typical grocery store brands. The original flavor is salty - no sweetness. The 4-oz bag is a good size to have - more than one snack, but it probably won't dry out before you eat it all.

The positives:
1. Grass fed beef
2. Good texture, not too hard
3. Mostly even strips of bite sized pieces, not too big or chunky
4. Good flavor

The negatives:
1. MSG
2. High sodium (not excessive compared to most beef jerky, but it's still a lot of salt)
3. A zipper top on the bag would be nice

Swedish Fish Red Fish Soft & Chewy Candy, 5-Ounce Bags (Pack of 12) Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Swedish Fish is some of the very best candy I've ever had--and you can take that from me, an increasingly aged old man who's eaten a lot of candy in his day!LOLSeriously, though, these little red fish shaped candies are indeed every bit as soft, chewy and delicious as they say they are! Their sweet cherry flavor is something you can easily get hooked on--stock up on these before any storm hits!SMILE

Although they are a fat free food they contain sugar; and sugar can turn to fat in your system if you're not especially active. Eat these with this caveat in mind. Sugar is not exactly the greatest thing for your teeth, either, so if you need a sugar free treat for any health reasons, you need to pick another type of candy.

The Swedish Fish come in easy to handle five ounce bags; each bag is easy to open and you don't have to close it up tightly again for the candy to remain fresh. As long as you're going to eat the five ounce bag within a few days you don't have to worry about freshness.

Overall, this candy is great to munch on when you're at the movies or anytime you get a craving for some really yummy, chewy candy. Enjoy!

Glico - Chocolate Pocky 2.82 Oz. Review

---

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pocky is one of those snack foods that make you think you are not really eating anything bad because it is light and crunchy, and you could eat a box of them and feel as though you have eaten nothing.The center is a very mild flavored cracker or cookie that has a mild taste similar to an animal cracker.The cracker is coated at one end with a mild milk chocolate.The end result is a pleasant, mildly sweet taste.

I enjoy Pocky, but they can be a bit of a mess in the hands of a child.My children have eaten them in the back seat of our car and if a Pocky should break the slender stick easily falls into the seat; the soft chocolate will soon color your car seat, and more if the temperature in the car should melt the chocolate.Also, sometimes Pocky will crumble and the crumbs are as bad as crackers.

Chocolate Pocky remains a favorite with our family, though we have tried the strawberry and occasionally buy it for a change.I recommend this treat for people who prefer a subtle cookie flavor and a light snack.

Product Description:
Heat Sensitive - The delicious Pocky toppings (chocolate, strawberry, whip, etc.) were developed to melt in a persons mouth, around 98 degrees and therefore are heat sensitive. If a Pocky topping should melt just place them in an average room temperature and they will cool but stick together. Melting does not affect the edibility of the product.

Pacific Gold Marketing Purple Large Round Tub Pistachios, 20-Ounce Package Review

(More customer reviews)Pistachio Recall
Salmonella Scare
Last Edited: Tuesday, 31 Mar 2009, 10:57 AM EDT
Created On: Tuesday, 31 Mar 2009, 9:38 AM EDT

FRESNO, Calif. - In another food scare sure to rattle consumers who watched the national salmonella outbreak in peanuts unfold, federal food officials are now warning people not to eat any food containing pistachios, which could carry contamination from the same bacteria.

The Food and Drug Administration said central California-based Setton Pistachio of Terra Bella Inc., the nation's second-largest pistachio processor, was voluntarily recalling more than 2 million pounds of its roasted nuts shipped since last fall.

"Our advice to consumers is that they avoid eating pistachio products, and that they hold onto those products," said Dr. David Acheson, assistant commissioner for food safety. "The number of products that are going to be recalled over the coming days will grow, simply because these pistachio nuts have then been repackaged into consumer-level containers."

Two people called the FDA complaining of gastrointestinal illness that could be associated with the nuts, but the link hasn't been confirmed, Acheson said. Still, the plant decided to shut down late last week, officials said.

The recalled nuts represent a small fraction of the 55 million pounds of pistachios that the company's plant processed last year and an even smaller portion of the 278 million pounds produced in the state in the 2008 season, according to the Fresno-based Administrative Committee for Pistachios.
