We got this on the Pepsi delivery today, so… I got the first bottle…
Yami: “It’s not bad. Though the strength of the lime flavor is a bit underwhelming…”
Another new Pepsi!
Yami: “To us, this one is WAY better. Though we are fans of peach flavored sodas, you can actually get a very good peach flavor above the Pepsi! We would definitely get this one again!”
Found a pack of these at the Dollar General!
Yami: “It’s fruit punch flavored Baja Blast. Not bad, but… It’s not that desirable either…”

Found it finally!!! Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut!!!
Yami: “The coconut flavor is VERY potent in it… Hmmm… I wonder how it tastes with pineapple juice added…”
At the Publix this morning!
Yami: “It’s mildly vanilla flavored milk. Not bad! It’s a couple days late, but happy Star Wars day!!!”
Wawa started selling these today, so picked up them at 3 for $5!
Yami: “Think of drinking a liquified blue raspberry sour patch kid gummy, but diluted to about 1/3rd the potency. Pretty much exactly that. Really good in all honesty, but would be better at the Walmart price of $1 a bottle instead of the $1.66 a bottle if you buy 3 at Wawa…”

My night snack
Taste Update
The Mtn Dew Lemonade is like their take of the original version.
They should have just called it LEMONDEW. lol
The beef jerky is a mix between not too sweet and not too hearty
The KitKat was amazing
Walmart actually got them in!
Yami: “The green apple is fairly decent, but the watermelon lime has a very muted watermelon flavor. But neither are as good as the sour blue razz. Lol. When you get Powerade, you drink the blue flavor! ”
Yup, definitely my favorite. The one that tastes like blue.
Yami: “AT MAOU’S FREESTYLE MACHINE TODAY!!!”
Mikan: “Sorry everyone… She’s just A BIT excited about peach coke returning…”
Nemesis: “LEAGUES BETTER THAN THE PEACH PEPSI!!!”
Mikan: “I suppose Neme is as well…”

The company has recalled four of its products for containing undeclared preservatives, including a dye that has been linked to cancer, said the FDA.
Four drinks from the Charles Boggini Company, which are sold at restaurants across the U.S. – The company’s Pink Lemonade, Cola Flavoring Base, Yellow Lemonade and Yellow Lemonade X drinks, which are sold in one and five-gallon quantities to food establishments, are affected.
The Pink Lemond drink specifically was recalled for containing FD&C Red No. 40 dye, a food, drug and cosmetic red dye that has been linked to colorectal cancer. The Yellow Lemonade and Yellow Lemonade X were found to contain FD&C Yellow No. 5, which can cause allergic reactions for some.
The Cola Flavoring Base was also found to contain sulfites, common preservatives that can cause issues in large quantities like respiratory issues.
Near everything near every company has been selling for years uses these dyes and chemicals. Hopefully these bans that are going to be put in place at some point will force many to start using natural versions of these. Some could be safely obtained from waste products of other parts of the food industry.
A lot of the sugar alternatives are being found to increase risk of heart attack and/or stroke.
Got a couple of energy drinks for free the other day, so gonna try them over the next couple of days!
Yami: “This… Is… Awful… It DOES NOT taste like a strawberry starburst… The only positive is it wasn’t the $3 they cost at Wawa…”
A llttle energy boost is a plus for work definitely
Free energy drink #2!
Yami: “Okay… This one isn’t too bad… it definitely tastes like raspberry and green tea, which is a significant plus from the last one. However… The one that tasted like Mikan is much better.”
That last statement can be misinterpreted you know…
