Pepperidge Farm Pizza flavored Goldfish: I stopped buying regular cheddar Goldfish after I found they got really salty a few years ago, but I was at a grocery store with few snack options and realized I hadn't had pizza Goldfish in a long time. Overall, I find them less salty than the cheddar ones, and they have a zesty tomato flavor similar to a mild form of Totino's pizza rolls (which I love, by the way). Probably the best of the original, non-xtra flavored Goldfish crackers. 3.0/5.0

Cedar's Classic Original Hommus with Hommus Chips Snack Pack: I purchased this snack pack from my lab's leanbox, and it's about what you would expect. The chips are a bit like Fritos, but thinner and less unhealthy. The amount of hummus is generous and has a decent garlic-y flavor. 3.0/5.0

Happy Lemon Yakult Lemon Slushy: I returned to the Happy Lemon in Boston (located in the Arcade Mall in Downtown Crossing) and ordered a Yakult Lemon Slushy drink this time. Yakult is a popular Japanese yogurt drink that comes in cute plastic containers. The texture of the slush was good but melted quickly in the summer heat. The boba was much improved from my first visit, with a good amount of give. Overall, the drink was on the sweet side but balanced out by the acidity of the lemon drink. 3.0/5.0

Momofuku Milk bar Cornflake chocolate chip marshmallow cookie: Not actually the kitchen sink cookie (there is an actual branded one here), this chewy cookie was too sweet for my taste, but I did appreciate the texture. Cornflakes add a surprisingly substantial and welcome flavor. 3.0/5.0

Shake Shack Root Beer Float: I'm a fan of Abita root beer, which is on tap at Shake Shack, so I was curious about their Root Beer float. The one size is very substantial and comes in a tall container with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. The quality of the ice cream and soda were both good, and together, they tasted exactly like what you would expect a solid root beer float would taste like. However, I did find because there was so much of it, the flavor become very one-note after several sips. It would be great... (read more) 3.0/5.0

Kind Maple Glazed Pecan and Sea Salt Nut Bar: A granola bar with a variety of textures: there are crunchy nuts and crispy grains, but they're bound together with a sweet and chewy maple glaze. The maple was very sweet, though the bar clearly marks that there is only 5g of sugar (it's not a very big bar, though). The sweetness is also offset by the sea salt, which has a prominent flavor. 3.0/5.0
