This snack specimen was procured through a rare trip to a far off Wal-Mart, and though at first glance it appears to be a regular bag of Cheetos chips, closer inspection reveals that this is something a little different.
What makes these Cheetos special? As the package claims, not only are they GIANT, but they are also engineered to turn your tongue blue upon consumption. Looking over the package more, you will also learn these are available only for a limited time, and this snack appears to tied into Halloween, as there are bats flying into the picture on the front, as well as what appears to be a fence similar to what you would find around a graveyard or perhaps a haunted mansion at the bottom. There is also a sign in the bottom left proclaiming the curious and slightly baffling phrase “Saturday Night Come Alive”. Chester Cheetah is seen in the middle, over-excitedly licking a GIANT Cheeto ball.
So, how about the snack inside? Well, upon tearing into the bag, you are greeted with unassuming, albeit large (think big marshmallow sized) Cheeto balls. Popping one between my mighty jaws, I found the texture to be a little coarse, almost threatening to scrape my mouth as I ate…The taste is about what you would expect from a puffy type Cheeto snack, though I found the flavor to be a little subdued, and the texture is what I would notice the most while eating these. As for the color changing properties, they do indeed change your tongue blue, though more of a pale hue, rather then the deep dark blue as modeled by Chester on the front of the package.
Overall, well, these are cheetos. Of all the cheeto brand snacks, these are probably my least favorite. The rough texture, weaker taste, and tongue tinting additives did little to win my favor. I would suggest sticking with the superior Natural Cheetos, or any of the other cheeto branded snacks for that matter. Still, if you want something novel, these are to my knowledge the only cheese flavored, cheetah endorsed snacks that can turn your tongue blue available.

One of my friends recently told me about this bacon chocolate bar she had tried. Huh? Bacon and chocolate? I am a big fan of the sweet and salty (or savory) combo, but even this sounded a little out there. So naturally, I had to try it for myself. Vosges Haut Chocolate was nice enough to send us some samples of their Mo's Bacon Bar, in both the milk and dark chocolate varieties. The founder of the company, Katrina Markoff, came up with the idea of integrating bacon and chocolate while eating chocolate chip pancakes and bacon one morning. She found that the sweetness of the chocolate chips and syrup were perfect in complementing the saltiness of the bacon.
Okay, so I was skeptical when I first saw this. It appeared to be some sort of nuclear substance at some kind, due to its incredibly bright green hue and dangerous packaging. I approached with caution, and after confirming the bottle was indeed safe to touch with my bare hands, I proceeded to investigate.
We picked up this drink in the 'Organic' section of our local grocery store. Why? The slick look, and the Blackberry flavor(A rarity in the carbonated drink market). That's all it took to get our attention and pick a can up. They're sharply designed 8.5oz cans and look great.
Novelty foods can be a fun experience. You never really know if the fun food your looking at will have a good taste to match. I liked the idea of the Peanut Caramel Cob. It's popcorn, peanuts, and caramel fashioned into the shape of a corn cob. The green corn husks on the plastic wrapper add to it's clever packaging.
