Here are some snacks I have been enjoying lately and encourage you to try out for yourselves.
Late July’s Organic Classic Cheddar Cheese Sandwich Crackers- The crackers are salty, but not too salty, and while cheddar cheese filling is made from organic milk from organic cows, it still tastes just as good as a chemically processed spread. For an extra treat, you can peel two of the sandwiches apart and make one super sandwich as sort of a cheesy paean to the Oreo Doublestuff.
Mi-Del Cookies Vanilla Snaps- These cookies appear rather inconspicuous. Less than exciting packaging reveals a profoundly plain looking cookie belonging unquestionably to the snap family, and also not so shockingly, the taste of this bashful little friend doesn’t at first insist on anything amounting to cookie transcendence. No, it is only after you mash its pulpy remains about your mouth after a few chews that the “organic dehydrated cane juice” kicks in like a rodeo bull on steroids. These are highly addictive cookies and if you do try them, I would advise doing so with some type of supervision. One of the pleasant side effects of the Mi-Del Vanilla Snap is the accumulation of gooey Vanilla Snap paste encasing your molars after you’ve eaten about twenty or thirty of these bad boys. Fear not. This material can be dislodged with subtle shoves of the pinkie finger moving upwards from the gums. Based on the number of cookies you have already eaten, you can find your mouth subsequently filled with what amounts to three or four “new” cookies. The gift that keeps on giving. I read online somewhere that the DEA is working to classify the Mi-del Vanilla Snap as a Schedule I narcotic, so you might want to “snap” some up while you still can.
Milky Way’s new More Caramel Bar- I got one of these by accident, expecting the good old tried and true Milky Way of yore. Milky Way doesn’t always score when it comes to tweaking the product line. One only has to remember the miserable experiment that brought to life Milky Way Dark to ascent to this. And, in truth, misadventures like the Dark will probably scare some people away from this new version of the Milky Way with “More Caramel,” which is ashame, since this bar is one of the hottest new candy bars to hit the market in a very long time. Definitely a departure from the classic Milky Way, despite it differing not so much in ingredients but ratio, the new Milky Way presents itself to the mouth with an overwhelming sentiment of silkiness, a silkiness, it is necessary to add, subject to the task of preparing for a thrilling revelation of caramel. This is a softer, sleeker, smoother bar than its predecessor, a, dare I say it, more European take on the classic American candy.
