An Interesting Week - Tryffeli Pussi

The news this week is pretty dire all over the world. I'm not the kind of person to look at the negative, but I'm also realistic as well. I've been fluctuating between shutting down all updates and just hunkering down, or doing more on the site, to try and entertain any of you out there that might be under lock down. Frankly I haven't decided if I'm going to change anything, so I decided to just keep things up as normal and see what comes up. That's why we have a new review today.

Right now I'm leaning towards working on extra content. I'm thinking about posting a few extra reviews, and maybe finishing off a few random ideas I've had for a while. While I'll be happy if it entertains any of you out there that might be feeling down, the main reason I'm doing it is to keep myself distracted and entertained.

We Have Thoughts This Month, And We're Sharing Them.


For some reason I thought I would tried the new Coca-Cola Energy as my breakfast this month. While the caffeine did wake me up a bit, the fact that I had an empty stomach didn't help me out too much.

It's A Review-A-Thon And A New Episode Of Our Monthly Morning Breakfast Thoughts

I've really been in the mood for some candy in bar form. Fortunately for me candy in bar form is very common. Some people call them candy bars, other call them chocolate bars, to make things simple here at Candy Critic we just call them bars.  All this week we'll be posting a whole bunch of bar reviews, at least one a day.

Click here to check out the first entry in our bar review-a-thon.


Also make sure to check out our latest installment of Chris's Monthly Morning Breakfast Thoughts where Chris talks about all of the news from last month and what's coming up on Candy Critic for March.

Sorry about the lack of new reviews over the next little while, but we're in Canada right now. We're visiting friends and family, and also going crazy eating nostalgic food and drink. It's been a while since we've been back home, so  you can imagine how we might want to get back some of the flavours of our past.

We've Finally Posted Our Monrning Thoughts


This episode of Chris's Monday Morning Breakfast Thoughts is late, a whole day late. It was one of those things that just proved to be more challenging than we expected. But it's a great episode and we promise we'll try harder next time.

Also make sure to keep up with our gummy review-a-thon this week. Our latest post is one of the great mergers in the candy world, unfortunately it didn't really work out.

It's Time For Another Monday Morning Breakfast Thought, And A New Candy Review - Puccho Juicy "Assorted Fruit Flavors"

Today's new candy review should be celebrating fruit, but there's a problem. It celebrates fruit in general, and not any particular fruit. This is a bit of a peeve I've recently discovered, fruit flavours that don't really have any kind of specificity to them. It's not that I don't like fruit flavours that don't taste like the  fruit it's supposed to represent either, I love fake raspberry and cherry, the problem I have is when they don't commit at all.

Click here to find out how this week's new candy review rubbed me the wrong way.



This week on Chris's Monday Morning Breakfast Thoughts, I feel like we have to change it to Chris's Monday Morning Dealing With A Bad Meal From The Weekend Thoughts. Unfortunately I didn't get to have the breakfast I was hoping this morning, so instead I had to find something to sooth my sore tummy.

It's Time To Eat Pancakes And Post A New Review! - Tim Tam Fingers

This week's new review got me in a bit of a mood. Recently someone complained that some of the treats posted on Candy Critic weren't technically candy. I decided that in retaliation, I would post something that's in a very grey area of this debate, and complain about people telling me that some of the things I review aren't candy.

Find out what I thought of these Tim Tam Fingers, and what I think about people's complaint that some of my reviews aren't technically candy, here.


When I thought up the idea of the Monday Morning Breakfast Thoughts, I thought that I would just eat a bowl of cereal and talk about whatever crossed my mind at the time. We're up to the third episode and I've only eaten cereal once. I like the idea of variety for breakfast, I just don't know if I can keep it up.

It's A New Episode Of Junk Fud News!!!


It's a little late because I'm working on ways to try and improve the quality of this particular show.  It means a few technical tweaks, as well a few creative tweaks.  The tech tweaks are easy, the creative ones make me nervous.

This Week In Candy


Feeling much better this week, but that means that I'm behind, and I have to catch up.  I think I mentioned this before on this blog, but just in case I didn't, I thought I'd let you all know that I'm moving... again.  The good news is that I'm moving back home, to Canada.  The bad news is that I have to tie up a lot of loose ends where I am before I leave.  I was hoping to get a good start on that last week, but the food poisoning made sure that wasn't going to happen.  So that just means we'll have to put things in high gear here, and get everything ship shape before we go.  That mostly means cleaning out the candy drawer, writing reviews, and shooting episodes of Chris, Why Would You Eat That?!!

This week you should expect our regular shenanigans, along with a new episode of Junk Fud, our podcast.  This week's episode is going to be all about the junk food news that happened during the month of July.  I expect the episode should be up sometime around  Thursday.  I'm also working on a special article that I hope to get up soon where I'm going to design a candy (most likely chocolate bar) based on the present American US election candidates.  If you have any ideas, let me know.

This week on Snack Facts, our Instagram feed, we're looking at bacteria.  Sure it doesn't sound appealing, but last week I felt pretty sick, so I was inspired to research food born bacteria that makes you sick.  If you're a daring foodie, you might be familiar with a few of these. Make sure to keep up with Snack Facts on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter, and learn why that under-cooked hamburger made you ill.

This week's new review has a strange name, Lunch Bar.  I can only assume you're supposed to eat it at lunch, but there's no specific instructions on the package.  It's not like a Clark bar is only for people named "Clark".  Make sure to read our latest review, and eat the bar whenever you want.
