Honey Peanut M&Ms

 Love peanut M&Ms, so I had to try these the other day. 

Not bad. In different to whether I'd try them again in the future. I think the flavor I would go for if they made  spicy peanut M&Ms. That'd be great, but I doubt it'd be a best seller so they probably won't ever make it. 

I miss the dark chocolate peanut M&Ms too. But those went out of productions years ago sadly. Still, nothing wrong with the classic peanut M&Ms either. 

Ghost 7Up

 Saw this in the store a few months ago and picked it up. Didn't even know about it. So excited. Went back to my car. And right before I opened it up I thought "Wait...what if it taste just like 7Up?"

I was right. No difference. 

Don't get me wrong, I like 7Up. But I felt like I just paid $1 more for a 7Up energy drink. There's literally no difference in the taste. 

Why they did this, I have no idea. I know Dr Pepper bought them a few years back. Maybe they were just throwing one of their brands in with Ghost to see if there'd be any interest. Well... I hope that's it for this experiment. Not interested in cola flavors with the Ghost label plastered on them. 

Pass on this one.  

When to grabs the "upgrade" seats

 Was talking with some friends at work about when you should move to better seats in a stadium while watching a game and this is what we all agreed on. 

Baseball: After the 3rd Inning

Football: After the 1st Quarter

Hockey: After the 1st Period

Basketball: Who cares about basketball??

I won't move if I'm with my family because it's never a smooth transition and isn't worth the trouble. But when it's just me or me and my son, I'll move on down for the upgraded seats. 

What about you?

Megan's Bizarre rules

 There are 2 "rules" my wife has around the house I've never understood. So today, I'm enlisting your help to explain them to me. 

#1 Once a hand towel is used to dry ones hands and must be thrown in the dirty laundry immediately. 4

Because of this, we never have hand towels in the bathrooms, ever. 

#2 Once you're done using the toaster, it must be unplugged. 

Or.... .what? It'll cause a fire? I don't know why, but she gets made if I don't unplug the toaster after using it. Every other kitchen appliance can be plugged in but this one and I've never understood why. 

Maybe one of you could help make sense of these "rules"

Have a good weekend folks!

That's :Mr Pibb: to you!

And finally, I got to try the original recipe. 

After so many year, Coke decided it was time to bring back the classic taste. I didn't know it when he gave me a 2 liter bottle of it. I thought it was just "cherry" flavored. Only after I finished the bottle did I realize online that this IS the original taste. 

So what did I think? Great. Oddly enough however, I think I enjoyed Pibb Xtra more! Maybe because that's really all of had over the past 35 years. 

But I'm glad they brought the original flavor back. I heard they're fading out Xtra but I really hope they keep both around in the future. Like Mountain Dew, they can rotate flavors in and out throughout the year and that would be ideal for me. 

Either way, words can't express how thankful i was to this guy for being so generous with his stash. I'd like to say I'd be the same way....but it is Pibb we're talking about here so I'm really not sure. 
 

Pibb Punchn Peach

 So the reason Pibb is coming out with different flavors I heard is because Dr Pepper is taking back distribution rights from Pepsi and Coke, now that their brand is so strong. Because of this, Coke is fighting back with Pibb and trying to give it a big push (in the big cities) for now. 

I love it. 

The peach flavor has a STRONG taste. Like biting into a juicy peach! Pretty good but again, this is a flavor I'd only try every once in a while. Not all the time. I enjoyed the cans he gifted me with but don't think I'd ever buy a 12 pack of these if I saw them. They're nice to have every once in a while for sure. 

Pibb Thrillin Vanilla

 Truth be told, I had vanilla flavored sodas. All of them....except maybe this one. Not my favorite but because it carries the taste of Pibb with it, it's bearable. The guy was very generous in giving me several cans of this, which I suspect was because he knew this was a flavor that gets old quick. 

Would I drink one again? Sure. Would I choose anything else over this one? Probably. 

But in my area, where Pibb is scarce, beggars can't be choosers. So if this is all I got, I'm not complaining.
