Scribbles About Food:Lay's Smoked Gouda and Chives Potato Chips

This is part of the Lay's Flavor Swap Challenge. I think this is different than the Do Us A Flavor... I don't think this was created by anyone other than Lay's... but you vote for which one you like better for a chance to win money. I like the idea a lot.

So for this one they are comparing it to the "old" Cheddar and Sour Cream Flavor... which I don't think I've ever seen... I've never tried... I'm going to compare these to regular sour cream because that's kinda what they taste like to me.

When you first bite into these its like "Wow. That is Cheese." But then there's a bit of a sour cream flavor... and its pretty good. If you really like cheese, I think you'll like this. And these to me taste a little more like chips with french onion dip than the regular Sour Cream potato chips. Maybe because of the chives? Not sure.

I was a little scared of these cause I tend to not like the new flavors... I don't love sour cream chips and when I was checking out at Target the girl said "These are terrible. No one in my family likes them." And I didn't even pick these out to try them. My mom was like "I think I want to try these." And I was like "really? Alright fine." Lol. I love trying the Do Us A Flavor chips... and sometimes I really like them... but I don't often finish the bag. I usually get pretty sick of it.

But these are really good! I was pleasantly surprised by how much I like them... maybe its just because I haven't had chips in a long time... but I really ended up liking these. They're just really tasty! I like them a lot... I think I've had a little too much... lol.

So yes, these are worth a try... I think I'm going to rate them as good as Cool Ranch Doritos. I like them that much! Idk if I'll really buy them again because I think I'm the only one that likes them... and I don't want to eat the whole bag... but they're really tasty!

Bye!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
