Check what i got in the mail! collab with : Cherry Slurpee Tw***ies!

If you didn’t notice these on 7/11 day when you were grabbing your free slurpee, then that’s probably cuz these were hiding in the store. They’ve been out for a minute and every time I see them it’s usually near the coffee or ice cream. Why not put the display RIGHT next to the Slurpees OR on the checkout counter?!?! Is this true for all locations or is my local 7-11s just dumb for this.

Also, the taste on these is good. They captured the most important part of the Slurpee IMO. That tart/tang taste accompanied with an overly sugary sweetness. Remember tho, this is still a Tw***ie. You’re not drinking a Slurpee. Check your expectations.

Thanks for sharing, Hostess!!

If you aren’t eating these every morning this week, are you even American?!?!? LOL totally kidding. But I am real happy that brought back these Team Cheerios and chose a frosted berry flavor. Great stuff IMO.

A fellow foodie found these CHILI CANS in their local walmart. How wild!? I knew Jack Links was branching out but…chili?! I’m game to try some. Hopefully I can find some near me soon. This will be great in about 2 months.

Great find, Nic!

Some of you may recognize the name, others may not. BUT, the fun people at sent me a promotional box to showcase their latest drink (just in time for ) Hard Soda Pop!

NYF’s Hard Soda Pop comes in Lemon Lime, Cola, Cherry Cola, and Strawberry Vanilla. While I haven’t had a chance to try all the flavors yet (it’s only noon as I’m writing this) I did think they tasted just like they sound. Great job, NYF’s. I personally don’t drink the hard soda/seltzer stuff because I like beer too much, but these were def better than some of the others I’ve tasted.

If you’re interested and looking, these should already be popping up on midwest shelves—I saw some at Jewel-Osco/Albertson’s recently. I believe the official state list (as of now) is ID, IL, IN, MI, MN, OH, OR, PA, WA, WI. Being a midwest producer, I would imagine this is just the start and if it takes off, they may expand.

Side note: NYF’s Root Beer holds a special place in my heart for various reasons, but when a small town brewery (pun intended) out of Wauconda, IL gets HUGE hype and goes nationwide (technically worldwide), I’ll always back them.

I enjoy the fact that knows July is too early to be releasing Pumpkins, BUT many people still want it. Starting today, will ship a specialty “fan first” bag of Reese’s Pumpkins to your door. These will be on shelves soon, but if you HAVE to have them now…Reese’s got you. Reese’s.

Visit Shop.Hersheys.com to order yours now. Pic and info provided by Reese’s. Please note: the carvings on the Reese’s Pumpkin are not on the actual product.

If you haven’t seen it on shelves, and have teamed up for your snacking enjoyment! They sent me some free samples of the collab that’s all over the -ish mini bags. Mini Love Corn bags are great for snacking at the office, on-the-go, and nearly anywhere else. Find these available at Targets, Krogers, HEBs, Sprouts, Stop & Shops, ShopRites, Ralph’s, Erewhons, Thrive Market, Fred Meyers, Meijers, Whole Foods, and the obvious Amazon.

Thanks for the samples, Love Corn!

For some, this is HUGE. has launched their sauces in-store! They sent me a free sample since I’ve never had Zaxby’s. (Don’t @ me, lol)

It’s primarily a southern chicken chain but they’ve been expanding through the years. The closest may be Indianapolis, but even thats a 4hr trip for me. . If you had to compare this chain to someone who’s unfamiliar, it’s probably best to say they’re direct competitor to the FIL-A brand so many people know. They offer chicken in various forms; wings, fingers, sandwiches, nuggets, salads, and newly, tacos! Plus, they have multiple sauces; Zaxby’s sauce, Spicy Zaxby’s, Tongue Torch, Wimpy, Sweet & Spicy, Buffalo Garlic Blaze, Hot Honey Mustard, Nuclear, Strawberry, Avocado Ranch, and a bunch of other classics.

To all those looking to grab these 3 on shelves (and only these 3, no other sauces are coming yet) check SOUTHERN Walmarts, Kroger, Winn-Dixie. If you’re not in the south near a Zaxby’s, you can grab some on Amazon too.

I love sauces, so I’m hyped for these. I actually take the FIL-A sauce and add something spicy to it all the time, but now I won’t have too. Tho Zaxby’s is different than it’s competitor, it’s still a great sauce for chicken and in it’s spicy form is excellent. Huge thanks to Zaxby’s for sharing all 3. I hope you launch more next year!

The kind people at sent me free samples of their oat milk-based queso(s) and spray cheese! I know not everyone is a fan of spray cheese/can cheese/aerosol cheese, but I grew up in the 90s and this is part of my childhood. Plus, with my oldest daughter being lactose intolerant, she and I are always down to try non-dairy cheeses.

First to try was the queso blanco and the medium queso. Like many milk-alt queso dips, it did not have a strong cheese taste and seemed watery, but that’s typical from what I’ve seen. I have yet to find a queso that’s just like the real thing. These were ok overall but not my major interest. I really wanted the spray cheese…and they didn’t disappoint.

These are classic canned spray cheese. You can tell in the classic cheddar flavor that it’s not real cheese flavor, but it’s tough to notice in the smokey one! The smoke element masks the cheese taste a little and impressed me. The classic cheddar was really good but the smoky cheddar was great. I killed the little cracker pack and then hid the smoky can in my office. Lol. My kid doesn’t get it and I’m not going to try and explain.

Great work on the spray cheeses ! Find these online and in some Fresh Market stores, Whole Foods, and other similar specialty stores.

Ignore the prices because I moved the boxes for a good photo, but check out what’s new in the freezer aisle! My local had some gooooood looking ice cream bars. !! Which you taking first?!?

Please note: this local grocery store is more Italian than most and has a wonderful selection of global ingredients and items. There’s a very good chance you will not find all of these things in your average big box grocery store.

I want to start with an apology to for not sharing this closer to the 4th of July BUT in my defense I was on vacation and the box literally arrived as I was leaving. Lol.

Still, thank you to Cookie Pop Candy Pop for their free box of goodies to celebrate the patriotic holiday so many of us like. Love that slogan “Let’s Get Poppin’” too! And if you look at the bottom of the second photo, you’ll see a coupon code you can enter for 20% off when you shop at CookiePopCandyPop.com until July 31, 2024.

And while you look at that, I get to eat the popcorn now. Cheers!!

*sigh* I cant stress this enough. Please, let’s keep the holidays IN their respective seasons. It loses something if you can find it 75% of the year. Thank You, signed — the majority of people that eat this stuff.

I thought I shared this, but I must have forgot! Big shout out to for sending free samples of their hydration drinks AND energy drinks. I’d never drank Prime prior to this. It tastes pretty good! I can’t say I feel more hydrated or more energetic than others, but the fact that I’m getting the benefits of what they promote, I’d call that a win! Thanks Prime!!

Happy Birthday !! 100 is a BIG accomplishment. I don’t think I’ll make 100 at this rate, but if I do, I’d do the same thing. A birthday cake flavored sucker is one of the best ways to celebrate. In the meantime, thanks for the free samples!

Find these in many stores that sell Dum-Dums.

Big day for with launching their Mint Chip Oreo Cookies! As many of us snack-obsessed peeps know, these started hitting shelves a week ago, but today is the official day. yay!! Have you tried them what’s your thoughts??

BIG shout out to for sharing their latest and greatest drinks with me (for free). I’ll be honest, I’ve never had Alani Nu energy drinks before and these were good! I especially love the mini cans, cuz maybe I don’t need 200mg of caffeine, I just need 100?!! Lol.

Of the 4 flavors shown (Peach, Pink Slush, Orange Kiss, and Cherry Twist) I liked Orange Kiss the best. Probably because they were trying to make it taste like Sunkist and they nailed it. Lol. Thanks for the free samples, Alani Nu!!

Shout out to for restocking my pantry last weekend. I think they sent it for Father’s Day or something but I’m not going to question it. These half pretzel + half pita chips are goooood. Thanks !

Oh man! I forgot to post about the latest release ONLY found in and . Infinite Swirl is the flavor name and it boasts a pineapple and berry flavor profile that I can confidently say ROCKS. I love when Mountain Dew adds in pineapple and any berry flavors they’ve made are usually winners too. So this combo is already up a peg IMO and it delivers. I get big Slurpee vibes and I think thats on purpose and I’m not complaining. Great stuff Dew. Keep um comin!

Obviously found at my local 7-11 cuz thats one of the only places they’re sold. Lol.

This is THE YEAR of Mint Oreo. Get excited y’all. I feel like they aren’t done yet. Lol. Official Launch of Mint cookie is on Monday, July 8th. I bet it’s out a week early in some spots. So, who will be rockin Mint Oreos at their 4th of July party?!?

Pain is Good. An excellent name for a hot sauce IMO. These guys sent me a free sample after we chatted about their main hot sauce they are known for: Da Bomb! (As seen on ).

Going down the rabbit hole, the company makes a TON of hot sauce and spicy things. In the Pain is Good line, they have 33 products of all different flavors and levels of spice too. Some a REAL unique like Trinidad Scorpion BBQ sauce, Harissa, 100% Pain, and Garlic Bloody Mary mix—to name a few. They have more too! This was just the Pain is Good line. There is even a Kansas City Grillers Pack for fans (they live near KC). Idk, I’m impressed for a company I haven’t heard much about initially. Bravo.

Now, about the sriracha. I was only able to taste one drop because the shipper busted the seal on the bottle and I didn’t want to risk anything. So, I just tasted a tiny tiny bit. Lol. It was good from what I tasted. So really, I’m just here to share the news that the makers of Da Bomb Hot Sauce from Hot Ones, also makes a bunch of other sauces. Check them out online at SpicinFoods.com!

Its Back! Salsa Con Queso ! And they have quite the promo going on now too. Deja tu Huella (Leave Your Mark) is a contest to find the next Deja tu Huella Ambassador and win $25k AND go to the Billboard Latin Music Week celebration with Cheetos. Each bag has a QR Code to scan to learn more.

FOUND at my local 7-Eleven but these should be many places by now. Cheers!

I was a free sample from and didn’t think much of it UNTIL I did a little research. Hear me out if you have 2 minutes to read this.

I know youre thinking, big whoop, “another chicken nugget maker,” but they have history. 2 major things to note: 1st—Pilgrim’s is a global company and one of the largest chicken producers in the US. So, they aren’t brand to chicken. 2nd—They also make . That’s the chicken that people are comparing to a major brand with the “fil-a” in the name and claiming to have the best organic chicken in the freezer aisle. This is the same company! (Just not organic and more affordable, lol.)

So, let’s talk chicken! They sent me their classic Ultimate Nuggets, the Cheesy Jalapeño Nuggets, and the Zesty Ranch Mini Nuggets. Not pictured is also a Classic Mini Nugget, a Buttery Nugget, and a Chicken Pot Pie Nugget. They have quite the line-up and nd they’re good! I air-fried mine and they didn’t explode from cheesy, they remained juicy and tender, and had a good breading and crunch. Definitely worth a try, IMO. I want a real spicy one tho. The Zesty part of the ranch was not spicy, it was herbaceous and the jalapeño is a fresh jalapeño taste, not a hot one. Let’s see a buffalo or a Hot Honey Nugget eh??

Find these at stores in the Chicagoland area or other stores. OR visit their website PilgrimsUSA.com and use their product locator to see where it’s sold near you.

Thanks for sharing, Pilgrim’s!!

The fun elves at sent me a free promo box for their latest collab and I’m conflicted for which I’m more excited about! The return of the tasty Rocky Road Fudge Stripes, one of my fav cookies. Or the Despicable Me 4 coming out on July 3rd?!!

With this promo box, I get to celebrate them both! But I don’t think the theaters will let me bring in a whole sleeve of these Fudge Stripes while I watch it. Fun fact about these cookies, there are 4 unique designs based on the characters. The more important fact: the chocolate & almond shortbread cookie still has the marshmallow fudge drizzle on it. .

Thanks for the packs, Ernie!

A few cool things to note about this summer. First, thanks to Dew for this EPIC and the free samples.

But mainly…It’s time…for the first-ever MOUNTAIN DEW COOLER QUEST. Starting June 20th, 50 coolers will be hidden in 10 different locations across the country with swag and/or dew inside. And I assume the dew may be cold, cuz this is a LEGIT cooler and everyone should check um out.

Head to MtnDewCoolerQuest.com for more info!

Thanks, Dew!!

On a picture note: I tried to think of the most American thing since took an awesome pic at the beach and I was inspired at my kid’s softball game. Decent pic, I’d say!

I’ll go on a rant later in my threads, but can we acknowledge the flavor idea here. is rolling out a new Smoked Butterscotch coffee flavor in K-cup form. I bet they’ll have other forms for this fall flavor, but huge props to Starbucks for tweaking a flavor an elevating it just a little more (note: I like smokey things) and a bigger kudos goes out to Nic for finding this on Walmart shelves already.

Yes, this is a fall flavor dropping in mid-June. If you didn’t pick up on the first line of this post, this is the topic of my rant later. Fall is fall. Not before the first day of official summer. Get your act together Starbucks.

Craft. Butter. Such a weird concept but at the same time, not weird. I bet this is probably good. So, I blame the label of “craft butter” that’s making it seem weird to me. Why not specialty butter or artisanal butter or just flavored butter?! Idk, it’s just my take. What do you say?

A giant in the spreadable space has accepted the challenge to create their version of the greatest combo known to humans. Peanut Butter & Chocolate spread.

Not sure if I’ll get a sample or not, but I did see this on shelves at my local in both jar and to-go forms. I’m still waiting to taste some and I’m slowly losing it. Haha. Have you tried this? Does it compare to the KING of ChocPB? Can it stand on its own as an alternative to the King?? Share your thoughts below.
