Marinela Choco Roles Pina
First off, I've never heard of Marinela before. The package said it's a product of Mexico, which is a good start. My favorite bending robot is from Mexico. A little Wikipedia search of Marinela comes up with nada. Google provided me with better results. A lot of their snack cakes look like blatant Hostess ripoffs but the cookies look pretty promising so I shall be keeping an eye open for more of these bad boys. And if you followed the Hostess bankruptcy like I did, you know (like I did after Googling it 30 seconds ago) that Marinela is now the company behind the beloved Twinkie. Also Marinela has 1.7M likes on Facebook. Baffling that they escaped my knowledge for so long.
Now about the Choco Roles. I'm pretty bothered by the 'Roles.' It should be 'Rolls.' Does the choco perform as a character in some sort of medium? Does the choco provide moral leadership and guidance? No it fucking doesn't. It's a round object that ROLLS when you put it on an incline. (Or on your stomach while you're laying on your couch but that's neither here nor there.) Bad grammar is going to cost you points Marinela!
The snack itself wasn't bad. It just doesn't separate itself enough from other chocolaty cake snacks. The creme was pretty lackluster. The chocolate tasted pretty good, but not great. And the pineapple (that's the pina part, maybe read a book sometime guys) was more of a filler than the focus, but still a nice deviation from the norm. It was a worthy experience but not enough to draw me back. So it gets 5/10 after the grammar issue.
