First Street Bar Mix Sweet & Savory $9.99 41 oz @ Smart and Final

It’s not everyday or even bi-weekly that I would go out of my way to buy a giant can of mixed nuts but every once in a blue moon, if I wanted something to snack on that is a mix of nuts with pretzels, especially when drinking some beer, these go really well with beer.  MGTOW Umbrella Against The Starts Bottle Opener W/ Built-In Flameless Cigarette Lighter I’m not entirely sure why beer go well…

Forrelli The Original Saltine Crackers 8 oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

I’m going to preface this post by saying that these saltine crackers are unusually satisfying to eat and I can’t quite put my finger on it, as to why that is.  MGTOW T-Shirt – Goo Wak Jai Growing up, I didn’t used to like saltine crackers because they were just crispy crackers that were salty to the taste but is otherwise very plain to eat. It was definitely not my first choice when it comes to…

Sobisk Snack Pack Bites Chocolate Mini Breakfast Biscuits 5-pk 3.70 oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

If I’m being honest, which I am in pretty much all of these product reviews, I’m not too sure why these are called mini breakfast biscuits. I don’t even know why these are even labeled as a breakfast item either, as there’s nothing about these that scream at me “This is a breakfast item’ quite like cereal or bacon, eggs and hashbrowns, you know what I mean? MGTOW T-Shirt – Goo Wak Jai It could…

Fiddle Faddle Caramel Popcorn with Peanuts 6 oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

I have been on a bit of hiatus between the May 2025 to roughly around middle of August 2025 due to work and my boss leaving suddenly becuase of work burnout so I was spending a bit of time trying to look for another job, which has eaten up the bulk of my free time. Now that I have stopped looking for a bit, due to being put on a waiting list for a few LA County jobs that I recently applied for…

Fiddle Faddle Butter Toffee Popcorn with Peanuts 6 Oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

Like the previous review about Crunch n’ Munch, Fiddle Faddle is yet off brand version of the popular kids snack ‘Cracker Jack’ and honestly, just like the Crunch n’ Munch that I had previously, it’s definitely a taste that I could do without. MGTOW T-Shirt – Men Gagging Their Orbiting Women Oddly enough, I looked up the brand, Conagra Foods and apparently, it’s like a brand conglomerate that…

Crunch 'n Munch Buttery Toffey Popcorn & Peanuts 6 Oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

Crunch ‘n Munch reminds me of the Cracker Jack boxes of caramel popcorn with peanuts and I’m not particularly fond of eating it either. On top of that, Cracker Jack reminds of my middle school and high school days, which for the bulk of the schooling experience was definitely subpar. It was a popular snack sold at the ‘store’ for both schools that I went to: Nightingale Middle School and Abraham…

Greta Cracker with Garden Vegetables 4.23 oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

The Greta Cracker with Garden Vegetables are rather interesting in an overall grand scheme sort of way. These are essentially saltine crackers but with vegetable flavoring and when framed in such a manner, it really doesn’t sound nor taste all that appetizing but this brand happened to have nailed the down flavor correctly.  MGTOW Credit Card Bottle Opener – Goo Wak Jai I don’t really know how…

Crunchy Rice Rolls Original White Rice 7 Rolls $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

I was expecting these to taste more like a rice crispie but boy was I wrong in that anticipation. MGTOW PSA Tote Bag- Forget Skanks, Make Bank This neither tastes like a rice crispie nor really any grain-like sticky snack whose texture is totally foreign. It doesn’t have a texture that I have ever tasted before prior to this point. With that in mind, the texture is more like hard nuts glued…

Sunbest Fruit & Grain Bites Strawberry 4-pk 3.5 oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

I had a pretty good idea that I would like these seeing as I’ve had a pretty positve experience of their other products thus far. These are essentially the ‘bite-sized’ versions of their small cereal nutrition bars that they had previously sold at the Dollar Tree. MGTOW T-Shirt – Goo Wak Jai Rather than a single larger bar, they quite literally cut these up into four miniature-sized cereal…

Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookie 11.8 oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

I stumbled upon these Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies quite by accident at the Cypress Park Dollar Tree location. I wasn’t really expecting to find these, or for that matter, was actively looking for them but since I saw them on the store shelves, I scooped one up to try out. MGTOW T-Shirt – Goo Wak Jai So far to date, I haven’t yet been disappointed with any peanut butter flavored cookies and/or…

Lil Dutch Maid Coconut Bar Cookies $1.25 10 oz @ Dollar Tree

Let me preface this review that I’m not really a fan of coconut. I don’t hate it, per se, but I also don’t particularly like it. I would group ‘coconut’ as one of those flavors in food that I don’t really care much for in tasting again unless it’s associated with a childhood memory that happens to be positive. In particular, coconut-flavored cookies just happens to be one of those childhood…

Sobisk Rich & Crisp Snack Crackers 6-pk 9.5 oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

I had a vague inkling that these were essentially soda crackers, which to me, at least based on my brief Google search isn’t the same as saltine crackers. MGTOW PSA Parody T-Shirt – Take Resources To me, saltine crackers are more crispy, flaky, airy, with a moderate salty flavor but these didn’t really have the same texture as an ordinary saltine cracker. These were more firm, a little bit more…

Global Brands Scottish Style Shortbread Cookies $1.25 4-pk 8 oz @ Dollar Tree

I wasn’t too sure what to expect from this 5-pack of shortbread cookies but just from the naming alone, I had a clue as to what it was going to taste like. I was imagining it to be similar in taste and texture to those European-style shortbread cookies that I had previously that were also from the Dollar Tree but the texture was ever-so-slightly different from that. MGTOW Umbrella Against The…

Moon Pie Minis Vanilla 6-ct 6 oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

Out of the three moon pies that I’ve had thus far, the vanilla one is real winner. This one had to have been the originally released flavor to start because the taste profile of this is like eating a twinkie but in a form of round pie with the added bonus of a marshmallow filling–which, mind you–I was never really a fan of marshmallow to start with but in this moon pie, the marshmallow fill added…

Clancy's Beer Cheese Kettle Chips 8 oz $1.99 @ Aldi

I always look forward to new flavorings that Aldi’s private label churns up and it’s been a good long while since the Clancy brand has churned out something new for a change. I kind of feel like it’s been at least a couple of months since they last released something new to try out. In that regard, the very last time they released something that was beer-flavored potato chips, that was the rare…

Clancy's Reuben Kettle Chips 8 oz $1.99 @ Aldi

It’s been a hot second since I’ve had anything new to try out at my local Aldi in Alhambra so far as chips and snacks are concerned. It’s been their regular lineup for the longest time in the past year or so, with inflation on the rise again since Trump resumed control of the USA. MGTOW T-Shirt – His Stomach, His Choice The word itself, ‘Reuben’, doesn’t really remind me of anything specific. In…

Oven Baked Fudge Mint Cookies 9 Oz $1.25 @ Dollar Tree

I set the bar pretty low on this one as you may know, I’m not really a fan of mint, just in general. Mint on a chocolate-covered fudge cookie is not something I would actively go out of my way to buy. If anything, I’d buy a regular chocolate-covered cookie than one with a mint flavored component to it.  MGTOW T-Shirt – Men Gagging Their Orbiting Women This cookie is pretty similar to an…
