I found a bag of Chimes Orange Ginger Chews at the grocery store checkout stand today. I decided to try them. Yum!

Some white chocolate is just sweet nothing. That's what a lot of people think when they hear "white chocolate". It's not chocolate, they say. It's just cocoa butter and sugar. But...

The other night at Chili's restaurant, Rich and I were served a garnish of sweet pickled jalapeno peppers with our hamburger. Yum!

From Canada Dry - Green Tea Ginger Ale. Tasty!

(Note: this is not a "diet" drink. It's Ginger Ale, after all.)

Pupusas are a tasty Salvadorian specialty, made from a thick hand-patted tortilla stuffed with one or more of cheese, pork, beans, or loroco (a flower bud), then flattened and grilled.

I recently found Acerola juice in our grocery store. The Acerola (Barbados Cherry) grows in Brazil. It has 10x the vitamin C of oranges. The bottled juice tastes a bit like peach juice, lightened with apple. Not sour. Not too sweet. Pleasant.

Trader Joe's sells dark-chocolate-covered toffeed pistachios. Mmmmmmmm.
