October 2019 Ogdensburg Oddities

Beetology beet juice

Pringles Roasted Turkey

Pecan Pie M&Ms. I am pretty sure I have seen these before and they were gross

The mystery oreos smelled like snickerdoodles.  Some other people described the taste as vanilla frosting from a can.  I did not like the cinnamon coke.

Two new buffalo hot wing flavoured items, chips and popcorn.

Betty Crocker Brittle Mix. I did not make any yet but I have read that Duncan Hines copied this also.

April 2017 local items

Riviera Collectin Parfaits were finally on sale so I decided to try them. Just tastes like regular yogurt but triple the price.

Nestea is finally copying a product that's been available in USA for decades: half lemonade + half iced tea.

Laurena sardines in a bag

Chapman's Pistachio ice cream bars: good taste and like 1/2 the cost of Haagen Dazs

Two new revolting flavours of Pizza Pops: Poutine and Hawaiian.

Old Dutch Crispy Bacon chips: pretty good

Discounted after-Easter chocolates

I got this rice at farm boy

This one was also from Farm Boy and it was inedible. Very disgusting and salty.

Less than 80% peanuts from Bed Bath and Beyond.  Don't bother!

Old Dutch chips came out with Dutch Gourmet chips

Spaghetti squash in instant pot.  8 minutes to cook.

Megaload Peanut Butter & Strawberry Jelly.  The name is embarrassing and I think it sucks without the chocolate.

H2 Rose drink from Sobeys.  It was delicious but not worth the price.

Orange chicken inthe Instant Pot.  I found this recipe on facebook and I hate wine so the sauce was kind of overpowering.

Kettle Brand Red Curry Potato Chips - they taste nothing like Thai red curry

Betty Crocker Pineapple Upside-Down cake mix - it actually had a small can of crushed pineapple in the box!  I thought it tasted gross but Mother liked it!

Ruffles Poutine chips - yuck

I got these last week in Costco out of curiosity. OMG they were disgusting.  I haven't tried Krispy Kreme donuts too many times since they only sell cold ones here sometimes.  From what I remember, a hot one is good.. But these were really bad - with each bite I had a feeling of eating lard or something meaty.  Very very greasy. 

This made me lol in Walmart.  The lady sucking back the sandwich.. right beside those creepy footlong frankfurters.

It's that time of year.. I made a Jell-O cake for the strawberry social party at work.

I got these in Mac's convenience store, klondike mint and banana taffy.  Did not try them yet. I left them in my cubicle for coworkers to sample.

First round of dessert from strawberry social.  They were all really good.

Second round of dessert from strawberry social.

Big Bone BBQ and Wicked Wings is supposed to be open today.  It replaced Mojo Fresh.

Here is the menu

Finally I tried a sandwich from Franks Bakery and Catering.  This is #11 White Girl. It took me all day and I didn't finish it. Huge portion size but very fresh.  It had lettuce, tomato, mayo and mustard but you can't tell that from this pic.
