Where Fire Meets Flavor: Covering Foods That Bring the Heat!

Spicy Snacks: Tim’s Extra Thick & Crunchy Jalapeno Chips

Bottom Line: These chips deliver a good crunch and good taste along with a nice kick of Jalapeno heat and they stand out among the competition. There are lots and lots (and lots) of jalapeno potato chips out there, many of which are good, though not too many bring the heat. Pretty much every brand has a jalapeno flavor of some sort trying to appeal to those who like a little kick with their crunch. But often times I find that one is not much...

Review: Burger King Ghost Pepper Chicken Nuggets

Bottom Line: Burger King fries up better than average chicken nuggets and the Ghost Pepper version delivers a bit of a kick.

There are plenty of spicy options out there when you are looking for something to munch on, particularly among the salty snacks that promise to bring the heat. But if you are looking for something lower in carbs and/or less processed, you have some options as well. The Cracker Cut cheeses from HEB definitely offer a tasty choice that are low in carbs and deliver...

Hot Sauce Finds: Casa Firelli Italian Hot Sauce

Bottom Line: Casa Firelli Italian Hot Sauce is a rich and complex sauce that brings plenty of flavor with a bit of a kick. I was just recently in the Lake Travis area near Austin staying in Lago Vista and stumbled upon a cozy little Italian restaurant named Broc’s Italian Market & Cafe. While enjoying their fresh and delicious Caprese salad (they make their own mozzarella cheese) and digging into the rather larger portion of their...

Spicy Snacks: Sweet Chaos Jalapeno Blue Cheese Popcorn

Bottom Line: Sweet Chaos Jalapeno Blue Cheese Popcorn definitely delivers on the blue cheese flavor and brings a slight kick as well. There are plenty of spicy chips out there (or at least those that claim to be spicy), but sometimes you might find yourself looking for something different to snack on, and maybe a bit healthier. Popcorn has become a go-to substitute snack of late and there are quite a number of bags of the stuff on the shelf...
