Absolutely honored to be the one to bring you the scoop on cookie butter, a product that’s only been on the market since checks notes 2010!
Oh. I see. It’s been around for a while. And it was a mid-tier hype ingredient for a while, appearing in everything from Krispy Kreme doughnuts to Ben & Jerry’s ice cream to Starbucks coffee, too. Well, shucks.
So you already know about cookie butter. What if I educated you about its origins, instead? THAT’S RIGHT BITCHES IT’S TIME TO LEARN!
Biscoff cookies have been around in Belgium since 1932. There, they’re generically known as speculoos, but Lotu ..read more

Apologies for the photo blatantly stolen off of Walmart’s website, but the item I’m reviewing today actually inspired the whole QQ idea. I bought this on a whim a long time ago, and while I was rearranging the freezer to make room for quarantine food, I figured I’d finally make it.
Was it expired? Maybe! Was it delicious? Definitely! And it was after experiencing this unlikely delight that I looked around and realized that I had more than a couple products that weren’t necessarily new, but were new to me. Stuff I bought on a whim or a panic while stocking up, or, apparently, expired food I ju ..read more

“Our fans love SKITTLES® not just
for its delicious fruity flavors, but for the irreverence and sense
of humor for which the brand is known.”
That quote comes from Skittles’ Senior
Brand Manager Rebecca Duke, and while I won’t place all the blame on
her for every awful Skittles commercial I’ve seen in the last ten
years, her statement does make it seem like she was complicit.
Examples of their irreverence and sense of humor include but are not
limited to:
Pretending their candy is a communicable disease
Showing an adult man with an umbilical cord coming out of his stomach who can taste ..read more

Welcome to my new site, Muncha Libre.
Here, we discuss wrestling-related food and wrestling-related food
ONLY.
…I’m being informed by my Google
search that the name Muncha Libre appears to be taken by a line of
luchador-themed cookie cutters, which are adorable. I guess it’s back
to ol’ Junk Food Betty.
The inspiration for this sudden change
in focus comes from these absolutely darling Nerds ¡Lucha Grande!,
which have apparently been around since 2017. And, it seems, the
Internet hasn’t quite caught up to them either. Not a lot of reviews
out there.
And what a shame, because look at t ..read more

Summertime is in full swing, and we all
know what that means: abnormal heat waves and confronting the
mounting horrors of climate change!
But also, ice cream. Ice cream is fun!
Growing up, I didn’t like chocolate
much, which narrowed my ice cream choices. This was actually a
problem when I was growing up in the late 1800s: your choices were
basically vanilla, chocolate, or syphilis. Anyone who says the past
was better is lying.
Freaks like me chose an alternate path:
the fruity one. And back in the days when indoor plumbing was scarce,
that meant three flavors: lime, orange, or raspbe ..read more

Lay’s is the savory equivalent of Oreos. Their desire to pump out new flavors of potato chips seems like a compulsion. The difference between the two is that, while Oreo just goes straight off the rails, Lay’s always seems like they need a theme or a reason to do this. See: the extensive Taste of America rollout last year, the Passport to Flavor campaign, and of course, the Do Us a Flavor contests, where they basically said, “You do the work, we’ll sit back and judge.”
This time around, the excuse they’ve
decided to make is…music! They’ve teamed up with (read: paid) Bebe
Rexha to make an al ..read more
