Light is right. I can’t detect any Vanilla. This Monster tastes like milk with a little coffee (Java) and sugar; the can takes a shot at Starbucks by boasting how it has “way less”; added. You could probably match its exact flavor with the correct ratio of just those three ingredients, but it “tastes good” as advertised.
my rating : 4 of 5
Not only does the Crust Rise; it’s “Italian-Seasoned”. That makes it taste better than plain bread, though it’s of course the Pizza itself that’s the best part. Is it as good as a pie served fresh from the Palermo Villa? Probably not, but it’s damn good for one you buy from the store and bake at home.

Ferocious Beauty is a stretch, but this album sounds pleasant enough on the whole. That has less to do with the vocal melodies of Margo Timmins than her band. Their music; mostly modern folk; is soft and soothing to the point where one wonders if the project would’ve been stronger as an instrumental. The best song is Circe And Penelope, based on the characters from Homer’s Odyssey.

![Freschetta Kitchen Fresh Pizza [ Naturally Rising Crust ] : Pepperoni](https://marcellee.com/posts/120230.jpg)
The Kitchen Fresh bit is somewhat of a misnomer; it comes boxed from the grocery store; but this is one of the better frozen pizzas available. That’s partly due to the Naturally Rising Crust; it’s main selling point; which comes out soft and fluffy.
I like to eat the crust first, in fact, before getting to the yummiest part; the pizza itself, made with “mozzarella and parmesan cheeses”. It’s also topped with Pepperoni, which are a tad disappointing because they’re not as crispy as they look on the box.

This Super Enrgy drink isn’t bad at first sip; it does taste like Mango Peach; but the more you drink the worse it gets. The can promotes the fact that there are “no artificial sweeteners”; it’s “made with monk fruit and stevia”, but that’s part of the problem. It’s not sweet enough to counter its nasty beer-like aftertaste.

Don’t Waste Your Time listening to this album if you’re looking for something new and original. Almost every song is a partial cover of a song from the 1970s or 1980s. That’s also what makes it sound better than it should, especially during the chorus breaks where most rap music falters. The best track is Thigh Ride, based on the Tawatha single.

This goes from being a song that’s barely good to something special near the end. That’s when the busy, albeit funky, beat is stripped down to its bare bones; muffled drums, a piano and orchestral synths; to reveal a beautiful chorus.
What was unappreciated until that point is the harmonies and melodies of Stevie Wonder’s background vocals. It’s a throwback to his 1970s heyday and, on a hymn about “God”, damn powerful. I wish the whole song sounded like that.

I’m no Patriot, but you don’t have to be to enjoy these Cupcakes; a “limited edition” because they’re made specifically for Independence Day. They apparently come in two designs; the top red and white colors swapped; but the key is to not eat too many as the sugary sweetness; they would taste better without the creamy filling; can become overwhelming.

Why so many otherwise (naturally) attractive females choose to doll themselves up till they look like trannies is a mystery to me. Ice Spice, rarely seen in public without aesthetic makeup; I call it fakeup; and her signature hairdo, is a prime offender. Pics from before she was famous suggest there’s a cute girl underneath.
Her best quality is her light beigy skin tone, which does wonders for her physical appearance. As far as Spices go, she’s about the color of ginger powder, which is just lovely. There aren’t many (any) parts of her body I wouldn’t put in my mouth, but she wouldn’t look nearly as tasty if her skin resembled, say, black pepper.
She’s thicker than I normally go for; I prefer thin girls and she has some definite meat on her bones, particularly from the waist down; but she’s no Lizzo. Her dimply thighs are actually a sexual turn on; again the color helps; and I’m sure that ass would provide a warm cushion for any guy lucky enough to hit it from the back.

I’m starting to think a lot of these Bangs are the same drink with different labels. This one is supposed to come with a Citrus Twist, but, despite the inclusion of citric acid as a main ingredient, I can’t detect the taste of oranges, lemons or any such fruit. It’s just sweet; thanks not to sugar but sucralose; and otherwise basically flavorless.
my rating : 3 of 5
You’d think this Yogurt would taste disgusting. It’s basically just solidified Milk, albeit Whole (real) Grade A milk, with bacteria (cultures) in it. Even with no sugar or any other ingredient to sweeten it; just living beings with friendly names like S Thermophilus; it’s actually okay. Imagine the kind with the Fruit On The Bottom before you get to the bottom.

“My head is pounding to the beat of the drum,” a drug and sex addicted Eminem announces. That beat is the best part of the song. It’s a Dr Dre production and one of his sleekest; Mark Batson serves as co-producer; not just for the drums but the twangy synths and sneaky bassline that comes at the end of every fourth bar.
It’s an introduction slash return song; a cliché concept for a rapper whose past titles include My Name Is and I’m Back. Why it doesn’t start the Relapse LP is beyond me, but, after the mediocrity of his previous two (Show/Encore) albums, Eminem is indeed “resuscitated and rejuved” when it comes to lyrical prowess.
