Brutalmoose watches VHS tapes about how to throw a Tupperware party.
My grandmother was the queen of Tupperware. One of things of hers that I inherited is the "How to Throw a Tupperware Party" book, which was probably the forerunner of the tape. But I never realized the multi-level marketing aspect to it before. We were constantly bombarded with new Tupperware but I don't remember ever hearing a pitch about becoming a salesperson once.
By the way, I was in the era to experience both the Sunkist vitamins and the kids' toothpaste. They were both awesome. I used to want to eat the vitamins like candy and then I'd wonder if that meant I was addicted to drugs.
As the title suggests, BrutalMoose tries freeze-dried/camping food. It doesn't go great.
It's weird to me to see someone so unfamiliar with astronaut/freeze-dried ice cream. I've loved that all my life. The "sandwich" part of the ice cream sandwich is not great, but the ice cream is wonderful.
I have never seen "Paul Blart Mall Cop" and no nearly nothing about it. Have I made a mistake? Further, is it so good as to warrant 7 viewings? We shall see.
It's been almost 3 years since I saw this video...
And since then I've been on a quest to find one. It seemed futile given the "It's only available from Washington" nature but, who knows, maybe apple smugglers would create an apple black market at some point.
Well, yesterday I noticed a market near me was offering Cosmic Crisp Apples so I made the trip and was successful.
My review? Having had one, I can definitely say it tastes like an apple. If you're looking for a weird food adventure, this isn't it. It's 99% apple flavor with 1% extra sweetness - the news stories that say extra sugar content are accurate here. But if you've ever had apple cider, you can imagine how these taste. But the scientists that created it were breeding towards longer shelf life rather than flavor so expecting anything different was my mistake. On that subject, the above video makes reference to people claiming Cosmic Crisps could last a year, but I find no websites claiming that now and I have no interest in testing it myself.
So if I was going for flavor, what should I be hunting for? Well, according to applerankings.com, the SweeTango Apple is the greatest of all-time. Dang it, they were available at the store I was just at and I passed right by. Well, I'll look for those sometime. Deciding to review an apple was kind of a joke, now I see apple reviewing is serious business and people are going to come to my blog and be disappointed.
