Project 365 - 1.27.2010 - Ribs for lunch

See that steam coming off my lunch?

For lunch today I had a delicious braised rib in a red wine sauce. I received it as a free sample to test through one of the survey sites I belong too. Look for a review in the coming days about my mouth watering lunch.

What to eat? Cereal Edition

For me this is not too complicated. I have eaten cereal for breakfast for about 99% of my mornings on this planet (actual statistics may not be accurate - but sure seems pretty accurate). I can probably guess what my top five cereals of all time are when comparing how often I have eaten them.

1. Honey Nut Cheerios
2. Frosted Flakes
3. Golden Grahams
4. Rice Krispies
5. Cinnamon Toast Crunch

While cereal may be a staple in my diet and the choices are never hard for me, I understand that for many it is a tough decision. Well worry no longer because there is a flow chart for that!

I could sure go for a bowl of that Nintendo Cereal System right about now...

Taste Testing Tofurky & Gravy Soda

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Jones Soda. All opinions are 100% mine.

The other day I was sent a free sample of Tofurky and Gravy Jones Soda from Jones Soda Co. Who am I to pass up a free soda? Besides, I consider myself somewhat adventurous and willing to try new things from time to time.

But I fail to see the appeal of relieving your thirst by drinking something that is supposed to be flavored as something that traditionally makes you sleepy, but maybe Tofurky does not have the same effect? Regardless, I took the liberty of sharing my first sips with you. Watch the following video...

As you be able to tell by my facial reactions, this soda does not quite rank up high with Cherry 7-Up or Vanilla Coke. I am not saying I would go out and buy a six pack of this particular beverage, but if Uncle Sal is the kind of guy who will be excited about trying off the wall flavors or considers himself a collector of soda bottles, then this may be a must-have.

For me, I'll stick with the classics. Coca-Cola Classic that is. Let me know what you think of it if you happen to try it. Am I alone in my thoughts on this one? I sense that I am not, but I remain curious as to what people have to say about it this Thanksgiving season.

Pancake Krimpet

I love krimpets. I love pancakes. Naturally you would think that when I saw the Tastycake Pancake Krimpet on sale at the grocery store a week ago that I would be jumping with excitement.

You would be correct, however I did not buy them as they were not on the grocery list on this trip. I would love to try them though so if anybody wants to send some free samples my way feel free!

What I did not know is that these have been around for almost a year! Has anybody tried these? Are they as good as I imagine they would be?

I must know!
