I Need This In My Life...


I consider myself a popcorn connoisseur and Garrett's popcorn is pretty much the creme de la creme of popcorn. I used to always get their popcorn when I was in New York and I made sure I bought a bag during my recent trip up there. The thing that sucks about Garrett's is they only have stores in New York City and Chicago so if you live outside of those cities you have to buy their popcorn online and their prices are RI-DIC-U-LOUS!!! A gallon tin of the Chicago Mix (cheese and caramel) costs $31! And that doesn't even include tax and shipping.

Although I can't picture myself spending $40 on popcorn I know I'm going to give in eventually. The craving is just too strong :-( But if I do and the popcorn tastes nothing like it does when you purchase it at a store please believe that I'll be writing a scathing entry on here. So you better be on point Garrett's!

My First Fried Oreo


I got to experience a little taste of heaven this week when I tried my first ever fried Oreo. What's a fried Oreo you ask? It's basically what the name implies, it's an Oreo fried in batter and easily 1,000 calories. Okay, maybe not 1,000 but I'm sure it's probably pretty darn close.

My first fried Oreo experience was courtesy of Munchies ATL located in Riverdale, Georgia (about 30 or so minutes from Atlanta). They were nice enough to let myself and a few other people sample them. They add their own little twist to the fried Oreo, offering both the classic Oreo and a strawberry Oreo as well. And all of their fried Oreo's are drizzled in chocolate. Sounds delish, right? If Oreos aren't your thing then they've still got you covered. On top of their signature fried Oreos Munchies also sells fried brownies, fried cheesecake, and funnel cake sticks.

Aside from Munchies' variety of sweet treats they also sell burgers (which they say rivals that of Five Guys), wings, seafood, and ummm...salads. Be sure to check out Munchies on both Facebook and Twitter.
