V8 Fusion Strawberry and Banana LIGHT
Some V8s are better than others
by Shanti
Pros: You get a full serving of vegetables.
Cons: Some of the flavors are not as good as others.
I have to admit: I'm not a big vegetable eater. So when I found V8 V-Fusion, I found at least a small way to get some veggy nutrition into my body. But, having tried several flavors, I also found that some are better than others. The mixed berry was ...

Kraft Jell O Gelatin Dessert, Orange, 3 Oz Boxes (Pack Of 24)
Orange Jell-O brand gelatin dessert
by mjhollingshead
Pros: Jello is known world wide
Cons: none noted
As a rule, all flavors of Jell-O brand gelatin dessert have a very nice taste. I like the cool smoothness of Kraft Orange Jell-O Gelatin Dessert, particularly during the fall and winter when the cherry color helps brighten the bleak and ...

Guinness Foreign Extra Stout
It's Worth the Trip
by Bruguru
Pros: Roasty, fruity, sour and vinous, a rare and special treat.
Cons: Can't get it in America.
They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and I have to tell you: it really does. Such is the case for me with Guinness Foreign Extra Stout, a beer I can get only rarely, but when I do, it's a real treat indeed. What, you say, can't you ...

Red Bull Energy Drink 12 Cans 8.3oz
Get That Extra Spring In Your Step With a Red Bull
by rancid1993
Pros: Tasty, Gives You That Little Bit of Energy For An Hour or Two
Cons: Pricey, Must be Cold to be Enjoyable
Red Bull is one of those beverages that I have a hard time justifying when someone asks me why a can is often found firmly grasped in one of my hands. It's not just Red Bull, unless your local 7/11 or equivocal convenience store is having a sale, energy ...

Dinosaur Bar-B-Que
Syracuse: The New Barbecue Mecca?
by Bounty628
Pros: Piles of amazing food at a reasonable price.
Cons: Area where Dinosaur Bar-B-Que is located is rather bleak.
When one thinks about heading off to Syracuse, New York for a November business meeting, the thoughts that immediately come to mind are those of cold, perhaps snow and nights that look almost the same as the day did. Having never ventured off to the home ...

Revolution Tea, Tropical Green Tea, 16 Flow-through Infuser Bags in a Stay-Fresh Container
Revolution Tropical Green Tea is a Unique Tropical Flavor, Light But Enjoyable
by Javelina
Pros: Taste, unique, ingredients, packaging, not bitter
Cons: Not organic (Revolution tea does make organic teas), packaging a little wasteful
I have seen Revolution brand teas becoming more popular in stores, so when I saw this at SuperWalmart, I wanted to try something new.  I just tried another brand of green tea with a tropical flavor and was pleasantly surprised, so I was hoping for ...

Ommegang Brewery Three Philosophers
Establishing a rule of thumb: Ommegang does better with dark beers.
by bkalafut
Pros: Complex in a good way, well-balanced, unique or nearly so.
Cons: Gratuitously high alcohol.
Even though I read this beer's label, which declares it to be 98% ale and 2% ale with cherries added, somehow I expected this to be more like Kasteel Rouge, a simple medium-bodied dark Belgian ale with generous cherry flavor.  Far from it, ...

Yogi Tea Egyptian Licorice Tea 2212 MG - 16 Bag(S)
Tasty Caffeine-free Afternoon Pick-Me-Up
by thedesignbinNew Member
Pros: Caffeine-free, very flavorful, and you don't need to be a licorice lover to enjoy it.
Cons: Some people are afraid of licorice.
I am a big fan of Yogi Teas but the Organic Egyptian licorice flavour is by far my favorite. I love any kind of licorice but this tea does not have a strong licorice taste, so don't let the licorice element intimidate you. There is a slight licorice root ...

Pros: These chips don't pinch or walk sideways.
Cons: Way too salty and spicy. Totally crab-free.
I drove the DeSoto downtown for a lunch like any other. Yours truly and the noontime crowd were packed like sardines into the new deli down at Dorsal and Gill. I was the large Italian... no hots, no oil. On my right was a tuna salad with tomato. To my ...

Barilla Flat Egg Lasagna 9oz Box
Barilla Lasagna - No Boiling means quick delicious dinners

Pros: Can't get any simpler to cook with. Fast, tasty dinners!
Cons: I really can't think of any!
Who doesn't like a big plate of lasagna? At the same time, who has the time to make a real, homemade lasagna with all the trimmings? I know I don't. The trade-off has always been using pre-made lasagnas or, at best, those ruffly-edged boxes of ...
