2024 Summer Road Trip - Delaware - 2024/08/12

It's another travel day as we continue our trip across the US and try to close out our RV map. We're almost done! 

Delicious Sticks from Japan taste test

While visiting Japan, I loved looking through the shops and grocery stores for all the different treats! 

I'm relying on Google Translate to help me with the name on the package. Near as I an tell, it's something like Delicious Stick. 

These snacks are like giant puffy Cheetos! Except there's only one giant one in the package. The other thing I thought that was wild was the price! It was something like 18 Japanese Yen for one package, which is equivalent to about $0.12 each. There were four different flavors I found while I was looking. Corn Potage, Cheese, Mentai, and Vegetable Salad. 

2024 Summer Road Trip - Six Flags Great Adventure and Safari in New Jersey Day 3 and 4 - 2024/08/11-12

It's Day 3 for us going to the Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey! We've had a lot of fun so far at this park going on all the big rides. Today, we'll start with the rides and then head over to the 2nd park that's included here in New Jersey. The Six Flags Safari! 

Every Diet Dr Pepper and Dr Pepper Zero flavor taste test

We already know that Dr. Pepper is one of the best sodas there is. We know this. But what if you want that great Dr. Pepper flavor but not all the calories that go with it?

Today, we're trying to figure out, which version of zero calorie Dr. Pepper is the best. We've done something similar with Diet Mountain Dew, but that only had Diet Dew and Dew Zero. Today we're trying 7 different varieties! (correction: 8 varieties!)

We'll be trying, Diet Dr. Pepper, Diet Dr. Pepper caffeine free, Dr Pepper Zero, Dr Pepper Cherry Zero, Dr Pepper Cream Soda Zero, Dr Pepper Strawberries & Creme Zero, and Dr Pepper Creamy Coconut Zero (plus Dr Pepper Zero Blackberry at the end). 

We love seeing friends and family when they visit Florida!

It's really nice living in a climate that doesn't get freezing cold in the winter. That means that all of our cold-weather friends who are looking to escape come to Florida! And if we're lucky, we get to hang out together!

2024 Summer Road Trip - Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey Day 2 - 2024/08/10

It's our 2024 Summer of Traveling to all different Six Flags parks! We're in New Jersey visiting one of the best at Six Flags Great Adventure! We were here yesterday, but there was one big coaster, the biggest one in the world, that wasn't running. If we're going to call ourselves REAL roller coaster fans, we HAVE to ride it! That's it in the background. Kingda Ka stretches 456 feet into the air. It's the tallest roller coaster in the world.  

Snack Factory Pretzel Crisps - All 8 flavors - taste test comparison

It's time for another pretzel taste test! We're doing this one with Nicole and Alfredo specifically because we do so many "sweet" taste tests and Nicole thinks we should do more savory ones. 

So today we're trying one of Theresa's favorite pretzels to snack on, the Snack Factory Pretzel Crisps. We have all 8 flavors available, not counting the chocolate covered ones or the Pop'ums which are a different thing all-together. 

The 8 flavors we'll be tasting today are: Honey Mustard & Onion, Garlic Parmesan, Buffalo Wing, Original, Cheddar Cheese, Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper, Everything, and Cinnamon Sugar.
