Random Junk Food Finds

Had a bunch of finds over the last month or so that for some reason or another I've not put in a blog. If I had to guess probably keeping themes together and just timing. But we'll go with option C: Laziness. Either way its time to give these items some justice in no particular order.

First up was some sushi from Jewel. I was wanting to get into sushi for awhile. Pretty much think I'm the only one in this house hold that likes it as well as not prone to digestive issues. #CastIronStomach. Or would that be #CastIronColon? Either way happened to be at Jewel and saw some sushi on sale so figured why not give it a shot. I understand it not like legit freshly made sushi but hey I'll take what I can.

Okami Super Sriracha Sushi Roll

So Jewel on occasion will have some sushi for sale- I saw on occasion as I have only seen them a couple of times. I'm doubting this area is a big market for sushi rolls but I could be wrong. I ended up going with the Super Sriracha rolls as i'm a big fan of Sriracha. I think its due to the garlic that adds spiciness.  This turned out to not be too shabby and would get them again. I think the drawback outside of it not being fresh is that they're actually pretty pricey at $6 but maybe I'm a cheapskate.  Honestly though it makes me think I should go out and get some real deal sushi in the near future.

Also at Jewel I came across an item that hit a couple of Shariff interest points. Krispy Kreme Banana Crullers. If you notice by the packaging the first point: Limited Time. Second point is Krispy Kreme as it had been a while. The last point was new item. Not sure I've encountered banana mini crullers before so it went directly into the shopping cart.

Banana Crullers.

The final assessment was there was pretty fantastic. I think I've previously reviewed a strawberry version of this and had the same surprise. The banana flavor was throughout the cruller. Typically you see something flavored and its just the glaze or topping. Not these. Banana flavored from start to finish. If you're a fan of banana...PAUSE...then I'd give these a try.

The next item once again got my attention based on the marketing brilliance that is putting the word "NEW" on something. Happened to be going down the freezer aisle and low and behold this bad boy/girl (depending on your sass level) was calling out to me.

Cake & Cookie Fantasy

Cake & Cookie Fantasty? Edy's you're going all rated R on us. Its a combination of red velvet cake
 flavored yogurt with bits of sugar cookie in it. As unhealthy as that sounds- its not terrible bad at only 150 calories a serving. You would think that would be some crazy candy bar level of over 250 calories but it wasn't. Definitely would recommend picking some of this up and giving it a shot.

Oreos seems to be going crazy over the recent years with all types of flavors.  This year would be no different with the two flavors I found.

Firework Oreo and Waffle & Syrup Oreo

Firework oreo might be one of the craziest ideas - or at least something I would never have thought of. Somebody was like hey- why don't we take a regular oreo and add some pop rocks into the filling? Boss was like hell yeah let's do it. I mean granted same boss probably was the person behind the stupid Swedish fish version bit their track record has to be pretty good outside of that. I would say the draw back to this one is you kind of have to savor/eat them very slowly to experience the pop rocks.  Then again if you get them stuck in your teeth you'll have the same effect. Pretty crazy taking a drink of water with some stuck in my teeth. It just more for novelty and no doubt if you have kids they'll love it.

The other flavor Waffle & Syrup should just be named Maple Syrup Oreos. Not really sure how they captured the "waffle" part of it as its just a golden oreo cookie. Maybe I missed it? I mean it wasn't bad but really its like a spot of syrup in the middle of the cookie. If you look at the package you can how they laid it out. I mean it was good but I wouldn't go out of my way to try them or buy them again.

Definitely an unhealthy blog this go around but fear not the next blog should be healthier as it's a couple of home made items from yours truly and Karen.
