Snickers with almonds - very addictive

D'Affinios cheese - brie-like, but more buttery...yum.

M&M's Minis are great...they remind me of Sixlets.
Though, I like the packaging of Sixlets better.
It was fun to shotgun those things...

Mint Skittles are also very tasty....and perfectly minty.

OH! Last week I had a buffalo chicken pizza. Wing sauce instead of pizza sauce...lots of spicy white meat chicken....decent amount of cheese....and bleu cheese/ranch on the side. "You got buffalo wings on my pizza! You got pizza on my buffalo wings!" VERY tasty.

now that sounds sinful...wings and pizza together, melded into one perfect creation? do tell, where do i procure such a culinary delight? i'm totally serious. i want to try this.

new foods. hmmm. i'm pretty broke lately, but i'll testify for the chips ahoy you heat up in the microwave so they are hot and gooey like fresh baked... those were A-OK!

sixlets are so hella awesome...the fact that you can snap open the top and pour the whole thing in your mouth is a beautiful thing.

NERDS ropes. yeah, they look pretty disgusting - but very yummy - especially if, like me, you're a sucker for tart, chewy candy.

thank the good lord for finally making caffeinated 7up. i try to drink it every morning to settle my stomach, but it just doesn't have the caffeine i need when starting my day at 4 a.m.

I'm always looking for new and/or unusual foods to try. I give a big thumbs up to the new Indian place in town, Cumin. They call it 'modern Indian' but I called it just plain yummy and its BYOB, so it keeps the bill down.

I just got the Sweet Potato Queens Big Ass Cookbook and Financial Guide - lots of funky recipes to try and they all sound sinfully good.

I've been on a kick of eating food with Thai basil or lemongrass.....or chocolate, etc etc....:D

I had it a GA Tech hang-out in Atlanta - Rocky Mountain Pizza. So...I don't think you'll find it in Athens. But, now that you know the possibility exists - I would highly recommend trying to make your own. I'm going to do the same. I'll let you know if it tastes anywhere near that tasty.

A-friggin'-men and Halle-friggin'-lujah. The only place I can find 'em is Bob Evans for some odd reason, but damn they chase down a Sunshine Skillet like no one's business.

They sell them at Sam's club, or at least they used to, back when I was still working there. You could have them in bulk!

Where's this Cumin?? Do we have any BYOB places here in Cincinnati?? Chicago has plenty..

My favorite new food... Hmm... Good question... Hmm... Diet vanilla coke still isn't considered a food??

Sixlets rawk. I used to get little bits of plastic in my mouth 'cos they'd come in those little packs that we'd rip open w/ our teeth.

Tanino's on Pike Street and Bistro Biago's on Ludlow are both BYOB Italian places. Both are very yummy.

There are other places, but I am at a loss right now.

Cumin is in Hyde Park on Erie, right next to Hap's Irish Pub.
Haven't been there yet. Tried to go once, but it was PACKED.

this isn't really new, but since you can only get them once a year, it's kind of like rediscovering their goodness all over again: Girl Scout Cookies. God Bless those girls. Frozen thin mints anyone? and what about Edy's girl scout cookie ice cream to go along side. ah, heaven.

Cumin is on Erie, right by Haps. Its really good - I went Sat night and yes, I had to wait about an hour for a table, but the food is really good (and not expensive). Its cool on the inside, nicely decorated. But it doesn't have many tables so you must go early or late, otherwise be prepared to wait and wait (like me - I waited at Haps). Cumin is one of the few BYOB places in the city.

Dayton-ish is the test market for the new "border fries" or whatever. I don't know, my dad loves them.

This isn't the first time TB has had fries either, they did several years ago too, or maybe Dayton was just the test that time too.

Be advised:
Anyone interested in being my friend for life should send 5 boxes of the blueberry-flavored Crisp'ums.
http://www.quakeroats.com/qfb_OurBrands/Quaker/Snacks-Bars/crispums.cfm

I just got a bag of these on a whim from the Vendo and I'm ready to stick my whole head in the bag to lick out all of that blueberry goodness.

word, their honey mustard and onion is fantastic--just be prepared for people to not come near you until you rinse with listerine and then brush...it's murder on fresh breath...

The new Berry Burst Cheerios with those freeze-dried (what my sister calls "astronaut-style") strawberries. Trouble is I can't help but scoop out extra strawberries every time I have a bowl and am eventually left with half a box of plain ol' Cheerios . . . hmm, oh well.

Speaking of dark chocolate, (and I frequently do,) M&M's have issued their dark chocolate m&ms again, this time without the Star Wars special bags. Will they be available all of the time? Dunno. But I got some and they're yummy. :)

Also a big fan of crispy rice/sesame crackers from Trader Joe's. Those babies are the crunchiest crackers I've ever had and they're delish.

Yes! Those are very tasty. Expensive, but tasty. I don't know how you can stop at 3, though.
