S'mores Oreo cookies!

Image
If a month goes by and we don't have a new flavor of Oreo cookies to review, I think something is wrong with the world. It sends me into a panic. Is Nabisco going under? Has someone toppled this cookie giant? Is the sky falling? WHERE IS THE NEAREST BOMB SHELTER?! It goes something like that. Luckily this time around I didn't have to ride that emotional roller coaster because ol' Nabisco just dumped its latest limited edition flavor in our laps, just in time for those summer camping trips. S'MORES OREOS! This package just makes me want a real S'more. Look at that thing!  So what are we dealing with here? Well it's a graham flavored cookie for starters. I'm glad they didn't cheap out on this and just make this out of Golden Oreo's. The graham cookie actually does taste like a graham cracker, but with that familiar Oreo crunch.  Inside lies waiting for you both chocolate and marshmallow creme.  Fun fact, nine times out of ten that you try to open these

Cheez-it EXTRA TOASTY!

If you're like me, you enjoy having a box of Cheez-its around pretty often. They are great for dipping, as a side with a sandwich, or hell, just out of the box. If you've ever found yourself sitting in a beach chair beside a body of water one sunny afternoon with a box of Cheez-its in your hands and suddenly you realize you ate them all? We're probably on the same page.  If that's the case, you probably know the glory of getting one of the burnt ones too, right?  Those browned ones that are kind of like finding hidden treasure in a box. When you look down at a handful and see one and you say something like, "YESSSSS," as you pluck it from the pile so you can savor it on it's own. Some people I know have been wishing for a box of all burned ones for twenty years or more and it never happened. I have overheard one in particular say she would pay multiple times the price to get her hands on a box of all well done Cheez-its. Well, finally the people at Sunshin

Universal Yums! Snacks from around the world!

One of my favorite things to do whenever I'm traveling is take a look in stores and see if they perhaps have snacks or treats that I might not have back in my home town. Come on. If you're reading this blog, you probably do the same thing. There's just some things that are only available in certain areas. But what about visiting other COUNTRIES? That's not as easy. You see, I've been around a lot of the USA but outside? I've only been to Canada. Canada was barely a days drive from where I grew up but when I went there it was like another world. Their Mcdonalds had pizza! They had candy bars I had never fathomed and their milk came in bags! It was crazy.  Now what if there was a service that would bring that experience right to your front door? Well, my friends, there is. It's called UNIVERSAL YUMS and every month they put together a box of snacks from one specific country and deliver it to your front door. You can get one once, or for a gift, or you can sign
