Hey
There!
I've been loving up on my local
Dollar Trees. I have been getting decorations, snacks, pizza (OMG, the kiddo and
I are going to turn into homemade pizzas!), makeup, home goods and just general
stuff that I didn't know I needed until I saw them at the store. I can't
remember the last time I made it out of there for less than $20.
A few weeks ago I stocked up on freezer
snacks. I normally don't get the chance because unless you are going straight
home (and I never am) your frozen things will thaw. This particular time I was
going straight home and it was pretty chilly outside. My frozen foods made it
home safely.
Two of the frozen goodies that I
purchased were the Snapps brand Crispy Green Bean Fries and Mushroom Bites. I
like fried mushrooms from grills and pubs so I thought these two would be great
to try. And who can beat the price ($1)?
Well, first let's look at the
picture and then the actual cooked items. The mushroom bites look the same but
the crispy green bean fries look NUTHIN' like the picture. I guess that's okay because
they tasted nuthin' like they should have. The tasted like steamed green beans
with a drizzle of old oil on them. The coating wasn't on the beans. It was off
to the side of the beans. They weren't good at all. I trashed them. I don't
recommend them.
The mushroom bites were a bit
better. They were mushroom pieces shoved together to make a mushroom shape. The
batter coating stayed on but didn't offer much in the way of flavor. I at least
finished my serving but I didn't save the leftovers.
I just don't think these two items
were good. I was hoping that I'd have yet another great dollar find. This wasn't
one.
