Bottom Shelf Mixology Episode 13: Holy S'Mole

Welcome to the Bottom Shelf Mixology™ video series!  Our staff of Mixologists have decided it would be a good idea to actually test our special "bottom shelf" recipes.  What have we done?

This week's terrible idea: trying out the Holy S'Mole.  We had to chew it.  It was the opposite of delicious.


Check out the recipe for the Holy S'Mole.

Bottom Shelf Munchies Review: Ghostbusters Twinkies & Ecto Cooler

Welcome to the Bottom Shelf Munchies™ video series!  Our Bottom Shelf Crew is dumb enough to try out these odd treats just so you don't have to!  What have we done?

The Bottom Shelf isn't just for nasty cocktails anymore!  Starting today, we are going to be taste testing food and drink in our new series Bottom Shelf Munchies.

Don't let the name fool you, not everything is going to be bottom shelf quality.  In fact, our first video is a special focusing on three new snacks created for the new Ghostbusters movie.

Join me, Comic Book Jon, and Josh as we sample the Key Lime Slime and White Fudge Covered Marshmallow Twinkies and the highly sought after Ecto Cooler!

Fall Breakfast Cereal Reviews

As I mentioned in the Rejected Labor Day Drinks article, Labor Day is the unofficial end of Summer for most people.  For me, Fall begins when I find Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts.

And guess what I found yesterday!

You might notice that I found a couple other things that signal the arrival of Fall.  I could go on and on about how wonderful the Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts are, but I have done that enough already.  Instead, let's talk about the three cereals I happened to find.

Review: Limited Edition Cotton Candy & S'Mores Oreos

The nutcases at Nabisco are at it again!  Last time I wrote about Oreo cookies, I covered the Cookie Dough and Marshmallow Crispy flavors.  This summer, Nabisco has brought us Cotton Candy and S'More flavored Oreos.  I obviously needed to eat these.

Before digging in, I had my reservations.  All I could think about was how disappointed I was with the Cookie Dough flavor (which has been recently re-released).  I didn't want to face that same disappointment, especially with the S'Mores flavor.

Review: Limited Edition Cookie Dough & Marshmallow Crispy Oreos

The other night, while I was walking through the grocery store, I happened upon a rather large display for Oreos.  I didn't think anything of it, and casually glanced at it as I passed by.  It took a few seconds to realize that the Oreos on display were not the normal flavors.  As I walked a few steps backwards to the display, I was able to fully take in the words on the packages.  I saw two new flavors that I had no idea existed. 

Cookie Dough Oreo.

Marshmallow Crispy Oreo.

I knew that I needed to buy them as soon as possible, and not just so I could review them.  Since they are limited edition flavors, I was well aware that there was a good chance these would end up being rather difficult to find in the very near future.  Thanks to the kindness of others, I got my hands on these two flavors today!

So how are they? One tastes just like its namesake and is amazing, and the other tastes a little strange.

Limited Edition Red Velvet Pop-Tarts

What's this?  A new Limited Edition flavor of Pop-Tarts?  And it's Red Velvet??  Yes indeed!  And I was able to get my hands on some.  And boy, they are most definitely Red Velvet.

New Limited Edition Pop-Tarts: Marshmallow Hot Chocolate

This is not only part of the reason that I love this time of year so much, but also why I am fat.  Behold, all four limited edition Pop-Tarts that are currently available!

Of course, I have already covered the amazing Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts.  Besides those, there are the returning Gingerbread and Sugar Cookie flavors.  As if those weren't good enough, there is a new flavor this year: Marshmallow Hot Chocolate.  I'll go over the Gingerbread and Sugar Cookie flavors in a different post, but right now, I want to talk about the Marshmallow Hot Chocolate flavor.
