Snickers : Cinnamon Bun

Snickers : Cinnamon Bun

If you bite into this candy bar expecting it to taste like a Cinnamon Bun, you’re in for a disappointment. There’s a hint of it, but the (“artificial”) flavor is almost undetectable. It basically just tastes like a Snickers bar to me, which has always been a good thing.

Breyers Frozen Dairy Dessert : Salted Caramel Swirl [ No Sugar Added ]

Breyers Frozen Dairy Dessert : Salted Caramel Swirl [ No Sugar Added ]

The toffee pieces aren’t nearly as big as the picture on the carton suggests; they’re tiny; but this Salted Caramel Swirl ice cream; okay, Frozen Dairy Dessert; seems too good to be true. That is to say your taste buds will have a hard time believing there’s No Sugar Added. The plain Vanilla version is good too, but this is better.

Krystal burgers : Original

Krystal burgers : Original

The obvious comparison here is to Sliders; the first Krystal restaurant was reportedly inspired by White Castle almost a century ago; which are better, but not by much. The style and taste are nearly identical; both are damn good and more fun to eat than full-sized burgers on unsteamed buns; but Krystal adds mustard, the signature sharpness of which serves as a minor distraction.

Wendy’s 4 For $4 Meal : Junior Bacon Cheeseburger

Wendy's 4 For $4 Meal : Junior Bacon Cheeseburger

This is the best of Wendy’s 4 For $4 Meals when it comes to both value and taste. It’s the “Applewood smoked” Bacon Cheeseburger that sells it; it can be argued that being a Junior gives it the psychological impression of tasting better simply because you have less of it; but there are ways to improve it even more.

As a mayonnaise man, what I like to do is ask for two or three extra packets; they’re free; and add it to the burger. It’ll start to run off the sides when you replace the top bun, but that’s okay because it serves as a fry dip. My favorite customization though is to select for the drink not an actual beverage but a Vanilla Frosty.
