Turkey Hill Frozen Dairy Dessert : Peanut Butter Ripple

Turkey Hill Frozen Dairy Dessert : Peanut Butter Ripple

This is ice cream. The Frozen Dairy Dessert bit is a silly legal (FDA) description. There’s no Ripple in it though, so fans of Sanford And Son may be disappointed. It’s swirls of Peanut Butter that blend with the (artificial) flavor of vanilla. It’s good, yes, but not as good as stirring your own peanut butter into a bowl of (real) vanilla ice cream.

Mainstays Plate [ Black ]

Mainstays Plate [ Black ]

What I like most about this (“dinner”) Plate is the two-centimeter rim, which stops food from spilling off the edge; a common problem for big eaters like myself. That remarkable attribute, along with its specky Black appearance; the specks look like stars in outer space; easily counters the flaw of being prone to visible scratch marks from spoons and forks.

Lay’s Potato Chips : Classic [ Lightly Salted ]

Lay's Potato Chips : Classic [ Lightly Salted ]

This Lightly Salted version of Lay’s Classic is, for salt avoiders like myself, the quintessential Potato Chip. The original version is a little too salty and a plain (unsalted) version would be too bland, so it’s a perfect middle ground. The only other ingredient, other than Chips and salt, is cooking oil.

video review : Jurassic Park 3

video review : Jurassic Park 3

Our third trip to Jurassic Park is more entertaining than it should be. Steven Spielberg steps away from the director’s chair and hands the eggs over to Joe Johnston; the director responsible for shrinking The Kids. The result is an oversized monster movie that’s formulaic and predictable; main characters being saved in the nick of time and such; but also fun and occasionally funny. “I like the first one more”, but it’s better than The Lost World.

Uno Pizzeria Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza : Cheese | Pepperoni

Uno Pizzeria Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza : Cheese | Pepperoni

This isn’t just Deep Dish Pizza, it’s the original. The Chicago Style variation was, according to the box, “developed” by Ike Sewell for Uno in 1943. “When people tasted it, they wanted more of the same and the lines have been forming ever since to get into the restaurant.” I don’t blame them. It’s good stuff. What’s interesting is that the plain Cheese version is actually better than Pepperoni.

3D Energy Drink : Candy Blast

3D Energy Drink : Candy Blast

The name is too generic. It should be Skittles Blast because that’s what this 3D tastes like. That alone makes it easily one of the best (tasting) Energy Drinks I ever had because Skittles is my favorite Candy. It could’ve been one of the best drinks period; imagine Skittles liquified; if not for the carbonation.

audio review : Like A Stranger ( song ) … Fine Young Cannibals

This is a good song that gets great near the end. That’s when singer Roland Gift is joined by a chorus of women he still manages to sound more effeminate than. “You’ve been too long in the institution,” they go and it sounds like the finale of a glorious Broadway musical. The storyline has to do with a gay man’s fears in regard to his abusive ex-lover being released from prison.

audio review : The Other Level ( song ) … Bushwick Bill

Bushwick Bill is having a threesome with “two of the finest bitches around”, but they’re not the only ones enjoying themselves. Listeners are treated to not only a fun little sex story, enhanced with ad-libs and sound effects from the girls, but a raunchy beat enhanced with a sample from Love Hangover by Diana Ross; the part where Ross sighs like she’s getting fucked.

I’ve never been overseas, but I’d love to spend a few nights in Brasil. Her cute rat face, the beady eyes and pointy nose of which remind me of a younger (pre-facelift) Jennifer Love Hewitt, alone makes her an MMA fighter I’d help save money on towels by volunteering to lick the sweat off of between rounds. Her cup size is a lowercase A, but that’s okay. She’s a Special One nonetheless.

audio review : How Ya Move Out Here ( song ) … JT Money

The best part of this song is the bassline. It reminds me of MC Eiht’s Strawberriez N Cream. Bang the beat while driving thru the hood, taking mental notes from OG JT. “It’s How Ya Move Out Here,” he suggests, meaning you (“niggas”) should be careful about bringing a lot of attention to yourself, especially when it comes to flexing and flossing. It could save your life.

Cheetos : Crunchy

Cheetos : Crunchy

When it comes to snacks, Cheetos are a tasty alternative to Doritos. The question is whether this original Crunchy version is better than the Puffs. If so, it probably has something to do with the comparatively dense texture and shape, which to me brings to mind Bamm-Bamm Rubble’s club, and cheesier coating.

Berry Pebbles

Berry Pebbles

The only complaint I have about this cereal is the name. It’s supposed to serve as an alternative to Fruity Pebbles, but Berries are fruits, so it doesn’t really make sense. It does indeed have a “berry flavor”; the taste and look are reminiscent of Smurf Berry Crunch; and it is good. Better than the original? Perhaps.
