Wiggy Walgreens Wonders

Well they're 'wiggy' which I count as awesome, wiggy is usually a definition reserved for those who are tripping or high on something, nervous or just flat out weird and 'eccentric' but honestly I count all of those except for in the most pathetic of cases to be pretty awesome because usually watching someone who is 'wiggy' is pretty damn funny and cool.

Shit that is wiggy and yes, objects can be wiggy too are as a rule pretty goddamn cool.

It should then be no surprise that through James' trips to Walgreens that he's brought me so many things that are in fact wiggy and awesome. Walgreens seems to have a cache of cool shit and I've got to say, I love it. The best snacks I've ever had in my life have largely come from Walgreens and I'm sure that in the future I'll be introduced to many more. Tonight we'll touch on two such snacks, awesome offerings one of which was from the past that I finally got to getting into and another of which was a newer offering, a surprise just because.

So let's hop in without further adieu!

Russel Stovers Cookies 'n Cream Nest:

May I just state that these things thoroughly fuck with me? Okay.. Let's explain this, shall we? The bastards make, the bastards being any number of companies who do the Cookies 'n Cream bit the same damn product with dozens of variations on the fucking name from Cookies 'n Creme, Cookies 'n Cream, Cookies and Cream, Cookies and Creme and many others I'm sure I can't think of right off the top of my head. WHAT THE FUCK? Decide on a goddamn name, IT'S THE SAME SHIT!

It's essentially a biscuit made of White Pastelle (White Chocolate) which is fucking delicious with bits of crushed biscuit and creme inside.. It's a fucking chunk of White Chocolate with Oreo nestled in throughout the damn thing, hence the 'nest' bit and you know, it surprised me.. This thing was really fucking good.

The first bite revealed the tiny little bits of biscuit inside, barely enough to justify the 'Cookies' bit but they were noticeable taste-wise and perhaps it was for the best because they didn't over power the White Chocolate, the White Chocolate being quite sweet and a little bit 'waxy' in texture before it melted and became more creamy and ultimately pleasant when mixing with everything else.

I could definitely see myself getting a little addicted to these.. The one I had didn't last long and it's not just because it was small.

7.5/10 Big Cat Paws. Definitely try it if you can, Russel Stovers makes some goddamn good candy/Chocolate.

Walgreens Australian Liquorice:

I've had this one for a while now in fact older visitors of my blog will remember I posted about it in the past but I never really got to actually trying it and so my review of it was rather short and rather presumptuous. Now I have and it's back for it's due.

From the get go I'll state that Australian Liquorice is much different from what those in the U.S. are used to. 'Twizzlers' which is what most people in the U.S. consider to be Liquorice is not fucking Liquorice, it's a bastardization that tries to pass itself off as Liquorice, it's a fucking lie. A dirty fucking lie.

That's American Liquorice right there. This is what Americans are used to and frankly it's just not as good. Take that and compare it to say.. Oh, this;

This is Australian Liquorice, this is the good shit and it's better than any American crap that any company Twizzler or otherwise could pump out.

Thick almost jelly-like pieces make up this candy and it's goddamn delicious. While I prefer the 'original' flavour, IE Black Liquorice this is Raspberry and hey, I'll take what I can get.. Believe me, I'm not disappointed or unhappy to have genuine Australian Liquorice, just confused as to how goddamn Walgreen's is selling Australian Liquorice here in Alabumfucknowherebama.

Each piece is as mentioned extremely thick and almost jelly-like, they chew wonderfully and don't really stick to your teeth that badly, they're extremely sweet and that's not a bad thing and the Raspberry flavour is amazing and powerful, it really leaves an impression and is quite addictive. I could easily eat the whole bag of these if I weren't careful but at 290 Calories for only 5 pieces I think I'll avoid that, they're pretty bad for you..

No matter how bad for you they are, they're nostalgic as hell and decadently delicious.

9.5/10 Big Cat Paws - You get the chance, try these.. No questions asked.

Dinner:

Hooooooly shiiit is all I have to say about dinner tonight which was beyond flawless and perfect and just reached a new stage of unbelievable. Tonight's dinner for James was very simple but just weaved together on a whole different level than recent dinners, it's a very basic Niwatori Teriyaki (Teriyaki Chicken) and consists of Chicken and Mushrooms cooked in a buttery Teriyaki (home made) Sauce sitting on a nice bed of Steamed White Rice with a side of Strawberry Anpan (Sweet Roll)

To quote James this dinner was 'Very damn good'.
