Kras Tortica Jadro: This square-shaped Croatian wafer snack is filled with hazelnut and chocolate creme. Think Nutella sandwiched between chocolate-colored crispy wafers. Okay overall. 2.5/5.0

Guarna Antartica soda: From Brazil, this soft drink is named after the seeds of the native plant Guarna. The flavor is a tart yet highly diluted fruit drink. Slightly less sugary than other carbonated alternatives. 2.5/5.0

If anyone knows scientifically what causes this phenomena, I'd very much like to know. That is the most interesting thing about this frozen product, which is pretty average flavor-wise. 2.5/5.0
