ShopRite Mini Cakes

     I'm a big fan of ShopRite's bakery.  They put out some solid products at reasonable prices.  If you're willing to make a trip to the store you can find high quality baked goods for not much more money than a candy bar.

Blogging Finally Paid Off For My Candy

     This past weekend was our first preseason game.  Obviously everyone is psyched.  Apparently nowadays getting psyched means walking up to the resident snack blogger and giving him your spare change.  Am I upset?  No, not upset.  Confused, yes.  But we're overlooking the most important part: after almost two years of blogging, the results are finally rolling in!

I Examine The Implications Of The Dream Team 24 Years Later

     The Dream Team.  If you're a 30ish red blooded American you grew up with them.  They steam rolled the entire world at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona and inspired the bad guys in the Warner Bros' classic hit Space Jam.  That was 24 years ago.

(This was the only picture I could find of the men's team together. What the fuck?)

Mrs. Fields White Chunk Macadamia

     This blog isn't so much to tell you about the cookie as it is to release my anger as to the two Mrs. Fields locations I frequented the most closing down.

Gluten Free Brownies Are Also Moisture Free

     I bought a David's Brownie during a recent snack expedition.  Yes I'm aware it's gluten free.  If I may quote JFK:
"We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too."
What do you think he meant when he said "other things"?  He meant eating gluten free snacks.

Montclair Rugby's 40th Anniversary Celebration

     Montclair RFC is turning 40 this year so we held a party.  What would a party be without dessert afterwards?  Disappointing, that's what it'd be.

     See that?  It's called patriotism.  The Olympics are on and I'm supporting this country I love.

Black Rooster Maple Products

     During my recent trip to Lake Placid we passed a little road side cabin with a "Handmade Maple Syrup" sign.  And I want it on record that for once, buying a sugary product wasn't initially my idea.

New Chips Ahoy Red Velvet Cake

     Let's get this out of the way first: I'm not entirely sure what red velvet tastes like.  That's a fancy people snack and as a man of the people I have not had it in quite some time.

My Review Of The Much Hyped Reese's Cup With Reese's Pieces READ HERE

     There has been a lot of discussion about Reese's new product, the Reese's Cup with Reese's Pieces in it.  I was skeptical at first.  Honestly it sounds a bit like the turturkeykey.

Chocolate Chip Cookie I Found At A Burger King At A Rest Stop

     I'm not a big Burger King guy so I don't know if they all carry this one.  But I found this one at a rest stop in Montvale, NJ over the weekend.  First off, very limited selection of food choices there.  Fortunately for them this isn't a rest stop blog so they won't get reviewed for that.
