The Snack Report: Peanut Butter Pretzels Are the Best
One of the greater luxuries I’ve witnessed come with the dawn of the 2010s was the rise of peanut butter and pretzels as a food pairing, specifically in one single item. Basically companies take a pretzels nugget and inject it with a creamy peanut butter filling, resulting in a snack food that can best be described as “Holy shit these are awesome!” Unfortunately they were often hard to find and the companies that did make them usually kept them confined to small 16 oz. containers that could easily be devoured in a single airing of Breaking Bad. (Or two to three episodes of Transformers)
Cue dramatic pause, “Until now!”
What’s more amazing is that I actually purchased a Herr’s product.
The Cereal Report: Count Chocula is back!
Everybody loves Halloween. Everybody loves cereal. Naturally General Mills had a stroke of genius when they decided to market the only Halloween-themed cereals out there as limited-time-only available during the month of October, a few years ago. Now the return of Count Chocula (as well as Frankenberry and Booberry) is yet another time-honored tradition that we can all look forward to every Fall.
Awesome way before Twilight thrust vampires in and out of vogue.
The Cereal Report: Cap’n Crunch’s Cinnamon Roll Crunch
I’ve been a longtime fan of all things Cap’n Crunch. Original Crunch, Berry Crunch, Peanut Butter Crunch, Christmas Crunch, Choco Crunch, Oops All Berry Crunch, Treasure Crunch, Home Run Crunch, Cosmic Crunch, Halloween Crunch, Forrest Gump Parody Crunch, Choco Donut Crunch…
Shrimp Scampi Crunch…
So you can imagine my unbridled joy when I looked into my cabinet one day and randomly found a box of Cinnamon Roll Crunch, without even being aware that existed. Normally I’m quite up-to-date on the latest cereal news (I’m so cool I know), but these somehow made it under the radar. I tore that box open faster than any of my college acceptance packages, in anticipation of the prospect of a brand new Cap’n Crunch.
Right off the bat, I was disappointed. Sad face.
