Who hasn’t had a frozen pizza? I dare say everyone has gone to the freezer and pulled out a pizza, a quick meal that doesn’t cost much and fills you up. And there are so many different brands out there, everyone has a chance of finding something they like, or at least tolerate. Well that is what we are going to hopefully find today, a Quest worthy frozen za! If you have it in your hear...

I love love love popcorn. Nice warm buttery popcorn. And through the years I have tried other flavors. The loved by many (but not by me) cheesy corn. A nice fresh caramel corn. A bite or two of the candied popcorn is okay. But really, the best is the classic buttery popcorn. But maybe, just maybe, we will have a new favorite today when we try the Smartfood Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic Sauce...

Jell-O. I think that when many people hear that word, some specific memories might pop up in their minds. For me, I think about the Jell-O dessert my dad makes for Thanksgiving. I think about how my grandma’s Jell-O always had that rubbery film on the top that was pretty gross. And of course, the occasional Jell-O shot at the bars with my friends. Today we are going to try out seven differen...

M&M’s are a classic any time of year. Whether you just want a quick chocolate snack, or maybe you are baking some cookies or mixing up some trail mix, M&M’s are a go-to for many people. Today we are trying out the Limited Edition Campfire Smores M&M’s. Will these earn a seal of approval? Let’s find out! But first… Without your support, this podcast would n...

The Snickerdoodle is one of those classic cookies that just about everyone loves. A nice fluffy cookie with cinnamon sugar. Warm right out of the oven on a cold winter day, maybe with a mug of hot chocolate. Yum. Or if you are one of those coffee lovers, I am guessing coffee and a cookie might sound good to you as well. Unfortunately, we are not trying Snickerdoodles today. But we are trying out t...

As our loyal listeners know by now, I spend a lot of time in the grocery store looking for new products. Lots of brands will take an old product and put a new flavor to it. Sometime you just happen to find something brand new. Well today, we have five different varieties of chips that all have a new flavor put to them. And instead of doing 5 episodes, we decided to combine these and see which one...

Churros. Man do I love a good churro. When they are still warm, and you get that wonderful dusting of cinnamon sugar, the crunchy bite but fluffy pastry. You really cannot go wrong. And until now, I do not think I have ever seen a product try to make a churro flavor. But Kit Kat is giving it a shot. Let’s see if they hit the mark. Thank you to our supporters by the way! We appreciate your he...

Our world at Quest for the Best seems to be a rotation between Hostess and Coke as of late. Two brands that really push out new products constantly. But Little Debbie is screaming from the back hoping to be noticed, and I definitely noticed when the Cookies and Creme Brownie popped up on the grocery store shelves. It is hard to do cookies and creme wrong, so let’s see if this new brownie can...

Old El Paso is a pretty well known brand name in the grocery store. You have the taco shells, taco seasoning, sauce, chips, cheese, rice, beans… I mean, can you have taco night without Old El Paso? And now, you have a whole new product to snack on when you are not in the mood for tacos… The Old El Paso Twists. So let’s get our snack on. But first… Without your support, this...

Coca Cola is trying it again. Another new soda flavor. And like I always say, why mess with perfection? Coca Cola does not need to make anything other than Classic Coca Cola and Cherry Coke. But obviously they must make some money on these limited runs, since people like me have to try them out. We try these sodas and foods out so you don’t have to. And if you like this set up, and like the...

As we round out the end of summer (that’s right. If you are reading this on the day it is released, TOMORROW is the last day of our beautiful summer.) it only seems fitting to try out something that will quench your thirst on a warm summer day. Something that will indulge your sweet tooth. Something that will leave you smiling. Something with a little pop and fizz. Well, at least that is wha...
