It’s hard to go wrong with Strawberry ice Cream and this Frozen Yoghurt Gelato ranks among the better. It is sweet, tasty and “velvety smooth” as advertised. There isn’t much more to say, though I wonder why the ingredients list includes an undetectable amount of lemon juice.

They’re promoted as the “#1 pork rind in America”. I don’t know about that, but they’re among the better ones on the market. That’s because there’s “smoke flavor added”, they’re not too salted and they come with plenty of big pieces, though there will be those inevitable little hard leftovers at the bottom of the bag.

This Reign really does taste like a Dreamsicle. Or is it a Creamsicle? Either way it’s “inspired by the classic frozen treat”; an Orange Popsicle with vanilla (bean) ice cream on the inside. Why Orange? I don’t know, but the two flavors go well together.
They were one of my favorite treats as a kid, so this drink, which offers 300 milligrams of caffeine for “increased concentration” and “reduced fatigue” but no sugar, should be a nostalgic delight. The one drawback is its grimace-inducing carbonation.

It’s hard to go wrong with a Pizza if you stick to the basics. Palermo gets experimental and misses the mark with this one. It’s an interesting concept; Breakfast is generally my favorite type of meal; but the eggs basically ruin it. Swapping them out for pepperoni and adding in some traditional pasta sauce could make it good, but then it’ll be a regular pie.

Mozzarella by itself isn’t particularly tasty. You have to put it on pizza or bread/fry it to make it good. These Snapps Sticks are a prime example. The cheese in the inside doesn’t have much of a flavor. It’s the “golden coating” they’re “nestled” in that’s most appetizing.

“Is this really here,” I asked myself as I opened and closed and opened again the little window partition thingy, looking out at what, at least on this particular dawn, looked like an enchanted garden. It wasn’t mine; it was my neighbor’s yard; but the view was, along with the dining room I was standing in. I actually had my own dining room. It seemed too good to be true. That’s why I thought I may have been dreaming.
I used to think I couldn’t ponder dreaming in a dream, that I’d instantly awake at the thought, but there I was, in my new apartment, standing in a room I never knew existed. I say “never”, but I’d only lived there for a matter of days if not hours. It was early morning, still dark outside, and I remembered being there the previous day. I hadn’t yet discovered the dining room, but there was another spectacular view at the back.
That back room served as the main living room slash bedroom and its view was even better than the garden. It was higher up, as if I was somehow on a higher floor there than in the dining room, and I could see not only somewhat of a cityscape but what seemed like a neighbor’s roof patio. I could actually look down and see people; spy on them; cooking, relaxing or doing whatever people do on roof patios.
Aside from the views and dining room; I couldn’t believe I had my own (unshared) dining room; the apartment wasn’t much different than the one I have in real life. It was bigger though and the entrance door wasn’t attached to the main room but the kitchen. I remember observing my next-door neighbor; a slim white girl with long brownish hair; before walking in. I later thought of inviting her to my dining room.
“Is this really here,” I’d asked myself; I could actually hear the partition thingy creaking as I opened and closed it; just before waking up. The answer was no. Not only wasn’t the garden and dining room there, but neither was the apartment. It was all a dream. Awaking in my little, albeit new, apartment, with no dining room or practical views, was a disappointment. Still it’s not bad for real life. In fact I quite like it.

![Cape Cod Kettle Cooked Potato Chips : Original [ 40% Less Fat ]](https://marcellee.com/posts/121314.jpg)
These are Cape Cod Kettle Cooked Potato Chips made with “an extra spin in the kettle to remove excess oil for 40% Less Fat”. They’re supposedly “just as delicious as our classic chip”, but they’re not delicious. They’re harder, less crisp, than you’d expect; a matter made worse by the fact that they tend to come crumpled together, giving you no choice but to eat two or three at a time.

This doesn’t taste like any Swirly Pop I’ve ever had. As far as Bang names go, it’s one of the most inaccurate. The flavor is more akin to some kind of fruit; Papaya Pop would’ve been more fitting; though the can makes sure to inform drinkers it “contains no fruit juice”. Neither is there sugar added; it actually includes an impressive amount of vitamins; which makes it healthier than candy.

You’d think they’d somehow found a way to make Seaweed edible when you see it packaged and promoted as Snacks, but no. These, despite being “roasted to light crispy perfection”, are as nasty as you’d otherwise expect. Teriyaki my ass. The taste is more akin to shit; thin sheets of freeze-dried feces; seasoned with powders and sugars.
