The Pringles Scorchin’ BBQ and Scorchin’ Cheddar are rather tasty, but as with most snacks from the major brands, they don't quite deliver on the heat.
Pringles are well-known as the uniformly-sized, stackable potato chips that come in a can and they are one of the main competitors to the big guy on the block Frito-Lay’s. To keep up in the race for snack supremacy, Pringles regularly puts out new flavors to cater to the recent preference...
There was a time when I decided that I had eaten enough ramen in college that I never had to pop open a package of those dried noodles again. Then the Texas Winter Storm of 2021 hit, and I bought some ramen as emergency supplies which included a Tapatio flavored cup of the noodles. After trying those (more on that here), my opinion on ramen changed and I decided to put those back on the acceptable list. In the meantime, I noticed people going on...
I first discovered Indian food way, way (way) back in the 1980s and I have been hooked on the spicy cuisine ever since then. But in all the time that I have been visiting restaurants that serve the native dishes of that country, I never recall noticing a dish called Chicken 65. Maybe it was because I was too obsessed with the curries and the spicy vindaloo (love me some vindaloo), but somehow that bright red chicken dish (no, it’s not...
Potatoes are back at Taco Bell. No . . . not the Nacho Fries. (Hey Bell execs, make those part of your permanent menu.) The “seasoned potato bites” that were available for years before the Bell scaled back its menu during the height of the COVID pandemic are available at the drive thru once again. And that means the Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes and the Spicy Potato Soft Taco are back on the value menu. The Cheesy Fiesta Potatoes deliver a bowl...
Tostitos are yet another variety of chip from the ubiquitous Frito-Lay’s brand and they are basically a round version of Doritos with a slightly different taste. As with all of the chips from that company, Tostitos have had a variety of flavors and variations over the years, and the company is now teasing lovers of spicy food with the new Habanero offering. These are bite-size Tostitos, and according to the website the chips “are seasoned...
Wendy’s has been a contender in the chicken sandwich wars for a while and the spicy version that they offer is sure to please those who like to add some heat to their drive-thru order. But now that burger flipper is taking the game to the next level by combining their chicken sandwich with a favorite spicy appetizer. Here’s what Wendy’s packs between the buns in their Spicy Jalapeno Popper Sandwich: a spicy, crispy fried chicken breast...
According to Sontava! (the exclamation mark is part of the name), their products are not just sauces, but accents. And thick ones at that. They take pride in the fact that their sauces are made from just a handful of natural ingredients, and they should. This is definitely one of the better habanero sauces out there and one that I usually have at the ready in the pantry. The extra hot version of their habanero sauce contains fresh habanero...
