Review: Not Your Father’s Ginger Ale

As we approach the end of another crappy year, we thought we would review some booze.  New Year’s Eve is for drinking, after all.  New Year’s Day is for nursing a hangover.  With more booze. We can make anything a drinking event. So, in honor of New Year’s, we have for you a review of Not Your Father’s Ginger Ale. Recall our review on Not Your Father’s Root Beer. Herman saw this stuff while browsing through the liquor store one day.  Denny then picked some up a few days later.  A review was born. Oh look, a bottle of booze!…

Article: We Got McScrewed on McDonald’s McPick Two Menu

Hello ladies and gentlemen, Denny here.  Although Herman got McScrewed too, I am writing this one.  Because I’m pissed off.  I’m usually pissed off.  But that’s not the point right now. By now, you already know that McDonald’s has gotten rid of the regular “dollar menu,” and replaced it with the “$1 $2 $3 value menu.”  Part of the new menu includes the $2 McPick Two menu.  The way this new menu is supposed to work is that you pick two items from the list (McDouble, small fries, McChicken, 3 piece mozzarella sticks), and you pay two bucks.  Easy enough,…

What Herman Made: Aged Eggnog (Updated)

This article has been updated with Herman’s thoughts after letting the eggnog age for 3 weeks. See the additional notes at the end. Hello, Snobs. Herman here. With Thanksgiving wrapping up I thought it would be a good time to start thinking about Christmas and the fewd and booze related to such. In fact, I have a perfect recipe for What Herman Made, and since it takes a couple weeks to sit, the first week or two of December is just right to make it. Aged Eggnog. Personally I had never heard of “aged” eggnog before and was definitely intrigued….

Review: Starbucks Holiday Spice Flat White (New/Limited Time Only)

Merry Christmas, Snobs! We are here with another Christmasy review for you, our dear readers.  Think of it as our gift to you! Starbucks has a new holiday drink for your pleasure (or substitute your own word for pleasure!).  We have already told you why we cover Starbucks (remember our review of the Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte), so we won’t do it again.  The bottom line is, we like coffee.  This drink is marketed at Christmas.  Good enough for us. Starbucks’ website says, “Our new Holiday Spice Flat White combines Christmas Blend Espresso Roast with velvety-steamed whole milk infused with…

Review: Triscuit Cranberry & Sage Crackers (Limited Edition)

The holidays.  A time for caring.  A time for family and friends.  A time for…yeah yeah yeah.  It is a time for fewd and booze, people. That said, we can get into the holiday stuff.  This is certainly true after a few beers.  Or ten. In trying to feature some Christmasy noms, Herman came across Cranberry & Sage Triscuits.  Triscuits are good.  Crackers are good to slow down a buzz.  You see where this is going… So we decided to give them a shot.  Yes, it’s Christmasy, you people!  And we like regular Triscuits, so why not?! Truscuits now come…

Review: Taco Bell Boss Nachos (New)

Taco Bell.  Two words that cause love or complete hatred.  It seems to us like there is no in between.  You either love it or you hate it. In our case, we love it.  Both of us Snobs have been fans of Taco Bell forever. Denny was watching football, and a commercial came on for the new Boss Nachos.  Denny told Herman.  You see where this is going… We don’t know if these are limited time only.  The Taco Bell website doesn’t say.  They also are similar to other nacho platters that Taco Bell has had over the years under…
