I definitely recommend the regular soy milk over the extra protein version after trying it. It’s not good on cereal, it covers up the flavor and sweetness of my capn crunch lol.
Seconded.
You really need better taste in breakfast cereals, unless you’re talking about Captain Crunch Oops All Berries. 😛
I’m assuming that the intention with these extra protein version is to just drink it like a supplement.
I just had a thought…the cake bites box says “Put ’em in a snack bag!” And yet, they come in packages already…so, um, isn’t that already a “snack bag?”
@HOLLY MAY: I think it’s supposed to be a joke on the 1984 Karate Kid movie. The character Tommy from the Cobra Kai Dojo yells out at the karate tournament, “Put ’em in a body bag”. And the snake on the Cobra Kakes package has blonde hair with a black bandana, which makes it look like Johnny Lawrence from the Cobra Kai Dojo, Daniel LaRusso’s main antagonist.
The character on the Blueberry Cake Bite is wearing a white karata gi uniform like Daniel LaRusso wears, but judging by the white facial hair, I’d assume it’s a spoof of Mr. Miyagi’s character.
Bonsai Bites vs Cobra Kakes. Bonsai Dojo vs Cobra Kai Dojo.
I like your thinking!!! It might be a stretch, and I appreciate your noting this! And if that wasn’t what they intended? It’s what I now choose to believe. 🙂
I was so disappointed with the Powerade Zero Citrus Peach Sports Drink. I did not like the flavor…it tasted like medicine to me.
I don’t like those cake bites. Overpriced for what they are.
Totally agree, and way too dry. I only bought them once when they were on sale. Never again!
Trader Joe’s Aussie cookies are 11/box. Weird number, no? Seems 4/8/10/12 are the standard.
Tony’s Chocolonely will probably get a cease and desist because those labels look too similar to established brand names. I see Twix, Toblerone and Kit-Kat resemblances.
Silk Ultra definitely sounds like lube.
lol 🙂
That black carton is rather ominous.
