Trader Joe's pumpkin cereal bars: Another pumpkin seasonal item, this snack tastes true to its flavor, with a spiced pumpkin pie interior containing ingredients such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. Like most cereal bars, it's on the sweet side. A great filling snack in between meals and a good value at $2 for a box of 6. 3.5/5.0

Trader Joe's pumpkin pie mochi flavored ice cream: 'Tis the season for an insane assortment of pumpkin flavored products at Trader Joe's, including pumpkin spiced pumpkin seeds. This TJ branded mochi ice cream is so similarly packaged to the Mikawaya brand they also carry that I wonder if it was a partnership. Anyhow, the spiced pumpkin flavor of the ice cream is quite good: rich, creamy, and of the season. But where the dessert fails is the graham cracker bits embedded in the ice cream, which have a dense texture and clearly do not freeze w... (read more) 3.0/5.0

Savoritz Ancient Grains sriracha crisps: This bag of crisps is from Aldi, the German supermarket chain, and contains thin brow-rice crackers with a variety of other grains such as quinoa and amaranth. Interestingly enough, the ingredients do not list the actual sriracha branded sauce but has its own seasoning blend.

Specialty Selected strawberry soft licorice: Australian "licorice" that luckily tastes nothing like the classic herby snack. Instead, the candy is very sweet, thick, and more gummy than chewy. The type that get stuck in your teeth. Very filling. Substantial. But too sweet. 3.0/5.0

GoodBelly tropical green flavor probiotic drink: I really liked the cranberry watermelon flavor of this brand so I decided to purchase another kind to try. Unfortunately, this one is as bad as the other was good. The juice contains fruit purພ such as banana, pear, and mango and greens such as spinach, alfalfa, and parsley. The flavor is not balanced and somehow manages to recreate the taste of aspartame with all natural ingredients. It's also overly sweet, perhaps to cover up the flavor of the vegetables. The result is a drink that neither... (read more) 1.5/5.0

Mini Takis Zombie Nitro Flavor: Of all the snacks in my first #munchpak, I was most anxious about trying this one. First, I've rarely seen this brand outside of convenience stores and gas stations. Next, the green color of the \"zombie\" themed flavor screams artificial. But I found myself pleasantly surprised that the snack wasn't actually bad. The chips texturally are like rolled up Fritos, making them pretty dense. What makes the snack stand out is its habanero and cucumber flavor combo, which is reminiscent of green s...
