Lay’s Argentinian‑Style Steak with Chimichurri chips

 some kind of limited time thing for the FIFA world cup this year.

apparently they had this flavor out before were never saw it. there's also a Brazilian-Style Garlic Sauce and a Wavy French Onion Soup chip.  according to all-recipes lay's will have 40 flavors out, but most will not be in the united states. we have no interest in trying the french onion or the garlic sauce.

the flavor of these chips is overwhelming herbal of the chimichurri & nothing of the steak. 

will not get again.

Zaxbys Zax Sauce

 my brother discovered this at wal-mart a few days ago. so we decided to try it.

we put it on chicken patty sandwiches (with medium cheddar & sandwich pepperoni), but could not really taste it. so, we put some on a plate & tipped our fingers in it to find out what it tastes like. i guess it is better as a dip than a condiment.

it is like a spicy ketchup/mayo combo. possibly based on thousand island dressing. as many "special" sauces seem to be.

there isn't a zaxbys in like 250-300 miles of here, but now we know what their "zax sauce" is like.

random summer-like heat

 it's been around 90 degrees the past couple of days. i don't like it.

it is supposed to cool off to more reasonable spring-like temperatures soon.

the weather

 firmly in the spring-like category.

although accuweather.com says it is cooler than it is supposed to be this time of year.

i do not look forward to hotter weather.

tried Kefir

 we figured we needed more probiotics & decided to try kefir.

according to google kefir is a tangy, probiotic-rich fermented drink made from kefir "grains" (a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast) mixed with milk or water, resulting in a slightly fizzy, yogurt-like beverage packed with vitamins, minerals, and protein.

we got a raspberry flavored one from target & it is more sour than "tangy." and thick, like a drinkable yogurt.

would not get again. we are thinking of sticking to regular yogurt for probiotics from now on.

dirty mountin dew

 in this case "dirty" means that it has a vanilla cream flavor added.

it's the fad right now. taco bell has some drinks like this. i think it might be just a pepsi company thing.

anyway, my brother discovered a 20oz dirty mountain dew at wal-mart a few days ago & we got one to split.

it has a vanilla-y smell & a lemon-ish taste with a bit of vanilla. not horrible. and not something to get again.
