NIP - IT IN THE CHEDDAR BUD - CHEEZ-IT vs. CHEESE NIPS Taste Test.

I suppose I am going to be heavy on the Cracker Snacking for the next week or two as it goes against ALL Logic to have So Many Crackers open but I will look at it like I had a big party here with 30 guests and these are the leftovers.

I was texting with my friend Renee and she brought up Chocolate Pop-Tarts but she also mentioned something else, here is how the conversation went Verbatim.

Renee - I have had so many pop tarts today, it's kind of sickening

Me - Did you toast them or right out of the box ?

Renee - I need to add chocolate pop tarts to the list of foods I should never buy like cheez-its. I love cheez-its

Me - I love Cheez-its too, Cheese Nips too, one is supposedly better in taste tests

Well, I know me and once that light bulb goes off God Help Us All.

So, I got me some Cheez-Its and Cheese Nips, we need a photo here, I will figure something out.

(Top to Bottom - Cheez-Its, Cheese Nips, Better Cheddars, Cheez-Its Tabasco)

Cheez-It - The Taste I Love, Especially the aftertaste but these seem very Unsalty.

Cheese Nip - These seem a bit Saltier and with more of an after gift.

secondary runners.

Better Cheddars - Much more Airy or Cracker like and less dense than Its or Bits, more of a Cracker aftertaste.

Cheez-It (Hot & Spicy with Tabasco Sauce) - Lots of Salt and Spicy, a bit of an "ouch" aftertaste, I knew I would Love these.

This is a Very Close Call, Cheese Nips appear to be the winner but only by such a small amount. It is So Close, I think I am going to go with Cheese Nips, still almost unperceivable.

Final Call, Almost a Tie, I really can say give me either a Cheez-It or a Cheese Nip and I will be happy.

11/17/14 - Cheez-It - White Cheddar - Milder Flavor and aftertaste.
Do I Love them ? of course.

GYRO IT BABY 9/14/14

Amongst the mortal species called humankind there are many concerns in Life. 

Health, Happiness, Love, Security, Peace of mind and of course a really good Gyro. 

The other week I awoke with Gyro on my mind, I bet I even dreamed of it but it was the other week and Dreams like Gossamer wither away like clouds, preferably clouds made of Gyros.

I pondered for awhile on where my nearest Gyro spot was and to no avail, possibly on fifth avenue and 86th street but the bus fare alone would almost surpass the price of the Gyro intended. After work one evening I was dumbstruck, my local corner store of which I have frequented for years does simple sandwiches includinding a Chicken one and a BANG !!! The Gyro, Idiot I am !!!, so I got my first Gyro from my local place ($5.00), there was even a Big sign in the window that said "GYROS"

This as pictured above is the Gyro Meat of the frozen kind but I was quite pleased, typically its Meat, Lettuce, Tomato and Cucumber Dressing (or so I believe) but my man also added sliced Onions and as opposed to the street fare there was 2 or maybe 3 of the Lamb slices instead of just one.

9/20/14 - Fort Hamilton Diner - ($5.50) Not as good as my corner store, actually not even close but still passable and once again maybe 2 or 3 Lamb slices. This being a Greek Diner as most are they should be ashamed of themselves, however the Tzatziki sauce was served in a solo cup on the side, this was a good sign and they "gave" Coleslaw.

9/18/14 - Anonymous Food Cart - This is not quite a Gyro but it is the same base Ingredients. This is Lamb Over Rice ($7.00) That I purchased after having my face melted off post King Crimson at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square and it was done just right, I asked for Extra Sauce and Extra Hot Sauce, I guess thats what I got, The cart guy was friendly and so was I. The Rice is underneath folks, hence "Over Rice".

TACO PIZZA - 9/9/14

This was one of those my roommate had some leftover Pizza in the fridge and offered me to have a slice if you care too and I have always been a fan of Taco Pizza. Its Pizza but its Also a Taco. Actually its usually a Slice of Pizza with Ground Beef (preferably with Taco Seasoning) with Lettuce and Tomato. This appeared to be missing the Taco seasoning but was oddly Baked with American Cheese and No Mozzarella.

Against ALL Pizza Logic I quite enjoyed the American Cheese but alas the Pie went bad in the fridge, Hey how long can this really last anyways ? but I did have a few Slices before its timely death.

No those are not bite marks, it was my first slice.

BK AT 3 - 9/8/14

I took a late night excursion on covert operations to my local Burger King and Oh do I prefer Burger King so much more over that McDonald's place for so many reasons, OK let me count the ways.

1.) - BK is Flame Broiled and not Pan Fried

2.) - BK has Larger Burgers, McDonald's might as well be White Castle, no offense to White Castle which I also Love but their whole schtick is small Burgers

3.) - You need two hands to eat a Whopper, A Big Mac can be eaten with tweezers (Thanks Rodney)

4.) - Burger King has a better name, Who The Hell is McDonald ?

5.) - Burger King is the underdog

6.) - McDonald's Sucks

7.) - BK is Flame Broiled and not Pan Fried

8.) - The Whopper Kicks the Big Mac's Ass

9.) - You actually get satisfaction from a Whopper as opposed to that empty feeling after a Big Mac, this empty feeling is called "I Am Still Hungry"

10.) - There is a BK on the Dark Side Of The Moon.

This is called eating Al Fresco in Brooklyn, New York. 

On some anonymous persons stoop.

It being the wee hours when I stopped by and the doors being locked the police officers within waved me over to the left to the takeout window, Hey it worked and I got what I needed, namely BK satisfaction.

OH what a Glorious sight.
