Whole Foods okra chips: Seemingly deep fried pieces of okra that are thick enough that biting through can be a challenge. Herby, nutty flavor. Intriguing but not particularly delicious. 2.5/5.0

wildwonder Peach Ginger Prebiotic and Probiotic Drink: I've had probiotic drinks, but this is my first time (knowingly) consuming a prebiotic drink (consisting of dietary fibers to further facilitate gut health). Though ginger is the first listed ingredient, I didn't find the drink to have as strong of a ginger flavor as I'd prefer. Additionally, even though it contains a mix of fruits (including peach puree and juice, and monk fruit), only 7% of the drink is juice. It tasted like a lot of things combined that didn't quite balance together (i... (read more) 2.5/5.0

Yamazaki Biscuits Co Nori Chip Star Potato Chips: These chips are like Japanese Pringles, with more Asian flavors than you would normally find for Pringles.

Yaya’s Herb and garden vegetable popcorn : More herb than vegetable, this popcorn tastes strongly of oregano and olive oil. Because of its one-dimensional taste, it has been sitting in my pantry for several months now, an unheard of amount of time for any snack in my apartment. Would not recommend, but the popcorn otherwise (fluffy and light) is good enough that I would consider trying Yaya’s other flavors. 2.5/5.0

Yogurt Pump Red Raspberry Frozen Yogurt: During my visit to Chapel Hill, I tried to seek out local ice cream shops and found the independently-owned Yogurt Pump among Ben and Jerry's and Coldstone Creamery. On offer was about 8 different flavors, ranging from salted caramel to red velvet cake. After sampling the strawberry lemonade (which was extremely sweet), I asked what the least sweet options were, to which the response was Vanilla or Oreo. That was worrisome. But I ultimately decided to order a small serving of the red ras... (read more) 2.5/5.0
