Snack Time

Baken-ets Fried Pork Skins
Admitting I eat these is hard. Pork rinds? Really? Ugh. I am such a fat kid.
Anyway I love pork rinds. Yummy. But I am really picky. I like the ones that are kinda hard but not too hard. And I really like the ones w/ more "flavor." They can really be hit and miss. One bag might be awesome and the next not so much. And they always make me super thirsty.
I don't eat them too much, I seem to get burnt out real quick. And I haven't ever found a brand I like more then the others. Grocery store, gas station, whatever.

Snack Time

I am broke so on the way to work I wrote a hot perfectly fund covered check, to get food for lunch/dinner today. And I went to the place I knew I would never over spend. A drug store. Ah hahahaha. I always get more then I go in there for. I am a drug store junkie. I should have bought something to help w/ these headaches I am having. Whine. Pout. Sob. Sad face.
Anyway, snacks.

#1 - Goldfish crackers Xtreme Cheddar
I never buy these. I don't think I like cheese flavored crackers. Cheese Its, Nips, goldfish. But if you eat them around me, I will eventually ask for a couple and I always like them. I don't know why I pretend like I don't. Weird. So as usual they are just as expected. Salty "cheese" crackers. Goldfish are so convenient. Especially for my type of work. Since I work on the phone sex line I cant eat things that take a long time to chew. Its very rude to chew and/or crunch in someones ear. Since these were of the FLAVOR BLASTED persuasion these smiley goldfish were like the best chip over and over. Lots of powdered seasoning. Yum.

#2 - Flipz Milk Chocolate

After the salty, I needed something sweet. And chocolately. I kept walking down the snack aisle and saw cookies, jerkey, nuts, pretzels...oooo Flipz. I tried this once when they first came out and really liked them. Then I started making my own for awhile. I remember my grandparents thinking I was crazy for combining sweet and salty. Like I was the person who invented that. I do remember one specific argument conversation with my gpa regarding chocolate covered pretzels. He was insistent that I was a moron for mixing sweet and salty. I tried to explain that this was a common occurrence. That it was really quite good. He would hear nothing of it, and walked off in disgust. Anywho, sweet and salty is really good, but these aren't that salty. Its more like salt less pretzel. Its still good tho. Good amount of chocolate to pretzel. They also make a, or used to make a gram cracker one. Those were really good. I cant find those any more tho. Bummer.

Jack in the Box Cheesy Fries

Tonight on the way home I wanted a fountain coke from Jack in the Box. The one by my house is always the perfect level of syrup vs carbonation. So anyway, the line was kinda long and I feel silly just getting a coke so I ordered some cheesy fries.
I dont know if this is on the menu at all the JITB's. I had actually be ordering this for a few years of the menu. I don't know if I like the menu version. The order size of the fries are a small maybe. The new fries are pretty good. Crispy and salty. The cheese is the same they have been using for the Bacon Cheddar Potato Wedges. Its like an American cheese, nothing fancy.
For $1.99 I think I'd rather get 4 of their greasy tacos.
