thomas croissant bread

 from the people who bring you english muffins and bagels, comes a new product; croissant bread.

it is very much like a croissant. we had it toasted with butter and un-toasted with butter. it was slightly better toasted, which is probably why they say to do that on the front of the package.

it's more money than regular bread, and even if it wasn't we would not get it again.

aldi's Party Cheeseburger Flatbread*

 another pizza with unusual topping for aldi.

not very good, didn't taste much like a cheeseburger. flatbread pizza is always too tough and has an odd taste.

was vaguely amused by the knock-off heinz ketchup & french's mustard bottles as decoration on the box.

 

*this is listed as Cheeseburger Party Flatbread on their site, but the box has the word "party" first.

winter is not over yet

 despite a few days of spring-like temperatures, it is still winter.

temperatures are dropping off and there is a chance of snow the next few days.

Nutty Buddy Cream Pies

a new thing from little debbie we got from wal-mart.

it's a different from of their popular nutty buddy wafer bar with peanut butter, coated in chocolate.

even though it's supposed to be the same stuff, it did not taste the same. i think the wafer/crust was different, it had kind of an oddly dense feeling when biting into it.

nutty buddy bars, even the wal-mart brand, are much better.

bettergoods soup

 bettergoods is this new line of food products at wal-mart. they're supposed to be better than their great value line. but everything we've had so far was either bad, or meh.

their soups that come in jars are decent.

tomato, orzo and spinach--not bad, kind of spicy.
tomato three cheese bisque--it was OK, like regular tomato soup but cremaier.
creamy hatch chile and sweet corn chowder--very hot, could not tast anything else. i told my brother that we should not get it, but he insisted.
southwest roasted tomato black bean--very spicy, could not taste much beyond that.

will not get any of these again.

Chicago's Home Run Inn pizza

 i never heard of this restaurant before finding this brand of frozen pizza at wal-mart.

they must put some kind of stuff on it to make it smell/taste like it's from a wood-fired oven. it is not good.

according to their website this is a thin crust, but it looks like a regular crust to me. what they call ultra thin looks more like the thin crust i'm used to seeing.

chuck e. cheese frozen pizza

 saw this at wal-mart & decided to try it. it was very meh and the crust reminded me of the pizza we had in school (which wasn't good).

people say they go to chuck e. cheese for the pizza. but if it's like this i don't see why they do.
