Cap'N Crunch's Cinnamon Roll Crunch Cereal



Before we begin with all this Christmas business.
I need some breakfast.
And why not some really "healthy" cereal?
This is not my first time trying Cap'N Crunch's cereal.
More reviews are sure to come.





Some people eat cereals for breakfast, some eat cinnamon rolls.
And why not combine the two?
This cereal is supposed to infuse the taste and sensation of eating cinnamon rolls.
From the cinnamon taste to the creamy frosting.



Upon opening the package, the room is filled with a nice cinnamon roll scent.
It is almost like you just took some newly baked rolls from the oven.
Filling a bowl with cereal and some milk made the cereal crackle a bit.
They are pretty nice and tastes a lot of cinnamon.
Although I can not taste the frosting, it is almost like eating cinnamon rolls.

Saturnus 1893 Med Smak Av Hallon & Lakrits



We are now halfway between Halloween and the Christmas season.
And what better way, than to celebrate with a kind of hybrid.
I have written before that mulled wine is a big part of Christmas here in Sweden.
And mulled wine is what we have here.
But for some reason it is flavored with something I wrote about on Halloween last year.
Hallon-Lakrits-Skallar. Or Raspberry Licorice Skulls in English.
Yes, this mulled wine is flavored with a Halloween candy (sort of).
I do not really know what went through their heads when creating it.
But it must have been both something sinister and jolly.



The packaging is pretty standard.
The company, some text and the aforementioned candy at the bottom.
Nothing fancy.
The liquid is a very dark red color.
And has a smell of regular mulled wine but also a hint of raspberry and licorice.
It is quite weird. Because it is nothing you would expect from mulled wine.
But what about the taste? Is it more jolly than sinister?
Well, no. It is very strange.
There is of course the taste of regular mulled wine.
But also a strong taste of candy, raspberry/licorice candy.
It is a bit to sweet actually.



Now I think I have to go watch Nightmare Before Christmas.
It is also an hybrid och Halloween and Christmas.

Mountain Dew White Out



Mountain Dew White Out was the final victor of a flavor testing in 2009.
Out of the three finalists, this was the one most voted by testers.
And with good rights, because it is very nice.



White Out is a citrus version of the regular Mountain Dew.
I do like the can, it is very arctic.
Which is also the theme of the liquid itself.
Which is almost snow white.



It has a very nice light citrus smell that makes the whole room smell nice.
And the flavor? So refreshing.
Lots of citrus flavor, but not stingy or tangy.
Just nice and refreshing citrus flavor.
One of my favorites.

Brach's Candy Corn



This is the real Halloween candy.
Or at least, the candy that is famous at Halloween.
You see it in movies, in TV-series and the likes.
They are as famous as Halloween itself.

According to the package.
Each year Americans consume enough candy corn to circle the earth 4.25 times.
That is crazy and a little bit scary (hey, it is Halloween).
Funny enough, they are made in Mexico.



The packaging is kind of nice, orange is an Halloween color.
And it is nice to be able to see the candy.
Because the colors of the candy is awesome.
A yellow top, orange center and a white bottom.
Corn never looked this good.

Strangely enough they are not made with sugar, but with (real) honey.
They smell like, well, candy corn i guess.
I am not sure if I have smelled something similar before.
They are pretty chewy and that is nice.
The honey gives them a weird taste actually.
Or maybe there is something else.
What I am trying to say (write) is that they taste weird.
Like honey mixed with other unnamed flavors.



I must say, I am a bit disappoint.
I do not understand what all the fuzz is about.

Have a scary Halloween! < insert satanical laughter >

KitKat Pumpkin Pudding



I do not think I have ever eaten pumpkin pudding.
But there is a first for everything.
And now I get to do it in Japanese chocolate style.
Most people would not really be scared of a chocolate bar.
Much less a KitKat?



But, come on... Just look a that pumpkin on the bag.
He has created a kind of symbiosis with the chocolate.
And he is a really evil dude.
Those kids in the corner disappeared after I took the picture.
He ate them, right of the package.
His buddy, the "friendly" ghost, repainted the whole package black.
Inside the bag there are different small packages of KitKat.
All depicting kids with different Halloween costumes.



The chocolate is milk chocolate based.
It does not really smell like anything but chocolate.
Come to think of it, what does pumpkin in chocolate smell like?
I do know what pumpkin should taste like, and it is nothing like this.
The coconut flavor is overwhelming.
Maybe it was not coconut?
Maybe it was poison?
Damn you evil pumpkin!
And your ghost to!

Halloween Nuggets



These have haunted my fridge for what feels like an eternity.
I finally got tired of the moaning.
It was really making the other foods distraught.
So I thought... It will be Halloween soon.
Why not eat some zombie chicken nuggets?



Judging from the box, the scarecrow watches over the zombie chickens until they are ripe.
He loves his job. Why would he not?
He gets to kick zombie chickens around all day.
I guess his master in the castle has a craving for zombie chickens.
Who here does not have such cravings?
The cat looks a bit embarrassed, maybe he walked in to the wrong box.



There are nine zombie chicken nuggets in the box.
All shaped like objects of Halloween.
We have six ghosts, two pumpkins and a bat.
The bat is my favorite.
He is the king of the Halloween nuggets.



Really, they are just regular chicken nuggets.
They smell and taste like regular chicken nuggets.
So there is nothing to worry about.
Except, they are zombie chicken nuggets!
Who wants to eat you!
Eat or be eaten!

Ghostbusters Slimed! Energy Drink



Even ghost hunters needs some extra energy sometimes.
Even if they have a cool pimped out ambulance called ECTO-1.
I am of course, talking about Ghostbusters.

I grew up with the films and TV-series.
And I really love them.
I know Slimer did not get that much screen time in the movies.
But as I can remember, he had more time in the series.
A nasty but friendly ghost.
Why should he not get his own energy drink?



The can is lovely. There he is, his nasty self.
Of course I could not get a good picture of the liquid.
Because it is really green. A lot like slime.

Suspicion soon arose when i noticed it smells just like an ordinary energy drink.
It also taste just like any other energy drink.
That made me sad.
But, then I remembered its green color.
And I can finally say... I got slimed!
