Kit Kat - Wasabi Flavour











Origin - Japan

Rating - Awesome
This is a wasabi flavoured Kit Kat from Japan. I picked
it up on Ebay and lemmie tell ya, it was worth every
fucking penny! First, this is a green chocolate bar, so
don't be scared when you unwrap it. The chocolate is white
instead of brown; not sure why, maybe white holds the
flavour better. The wasabi taste is very subtle, nothing
overpowering. There is a great, slight tongue and nasal
burn. Very slight, again nothing overpowering.
Fucking awesome! Reviewed by Sean G.

Chin Chin Wax Gourd Drink











Origin - Thailand

Rating - Boston Baked Beans
This is wax gourd drink from Thailand and I picked it
up at the International Grocery Store in Windsor. I
thought it would be pretty weird and it was. Who thinks
to make a drink out of fucking gourds? Somebody did and
it was actually drinkable. Very, very sweet, but drinkable.

Wonderfarm White Fungus Bird's Nest Drink











Origin - Malaysia / Vietnam

Rating - Donkey Shit

This is Wonderfarm White Fungus Bird's Nest drink either
from Malaysia or Vietnam. I picked it up at the International
Grocery Store in Windsor. I did some research on this shit
because I was a little bit afraid. It contains actual bird's
nest and white mushroom pieces. In China, bird's nest is
considered a delicacy and there are these dudes that harvest
bird's nests from these remote caves. The nest is made from
the usual stuff and bird vomit. So, I drank it and it was tough
to get down because of the fungus pieces floating in it. It
is very sweet and has a strong vanilla taste. It was kind of
gross. Drink this at your own risk. Reviewed by Sean G.

Mr. Brown Iced Coffee

This is Mr. Brown Iced Coffee from Thailand. I picked
it up at the International Grocery Store in Windsor.
I really like the Rockstar coffees and this is similar
but has a stronger coffee taste. This is really quite
good and I would definitely buy it again. Not sure why
there appears to be a fat Italian guy on a product from
Thailand but whatever. Reviewed by Sean G.

Mojileez Masala Chips

These are potato chips from India that I got at the

How the fuck do you fuck up fucking potato chips? The

and wrong, I have to give these the lowest possible rating.
I made it through two fucking chips. Two!!!

This is Deer brand Basil Seed Drink With Honey. It is from Thailand

It is definitely the weirdest looking beverage I've ever drank.
It tastes like honey water with little gummi fruit balls floating around
in it. Kinda like drinking tapioca pudding. You can actually chew the
weird little balls after each sip. I don't dislike it but...its pretty
weird. Boston Baked Beans! Reviewed by Sean G.

Kimura - Curry Ramune Flavour



Origin - Japan

Rating - Good (on it's own)/Not so good (as a cocktail)
Who could possibly say no to this product. Soda and curry are just such a natural fit. At first I thought the marble thing unnecessary and overly complex. But then I realized it was from Japan. They're light years ahead of us so I'm going to blindly accept this as superior technology. The drink tastes like a slightly flat ginger ale with a little extra spice. It really wasn't bad. Now the Sailor Jugdish I was not so fond of. It tasted like a crappy flat left over cocktail from the night before that you only drown to avoid the DT's.

Rating - Awesome
When we first discovered the last remaining bottle of Curry Ramune at the "Lucky Supermarket", we knew it must come home with us. After doing a bit of research, I found that "Ramune" is lemonade! This is carbonated, curry flavoured lemonade. I thought, "it just doesn't get any stranger than this", until i saw Kimura's website. They have a spicy version as well. HMM? Anyways, the bottle itself is odd. After you remove the lid, you have to push a marble down and it *POPS* and fills with bubbles. Fun! The product itself has the appearance of canola oil and smells like dirt-cheese. Not promising but what the fuck. I discovered it actually tastes really good! It's light and slightly fruity with a definite curry taste. It reminded me of a spicy ginger beer that was a little bit citrus. My next logical thought was, "LET'S ADD BOOZE TO IT!!" and I grabbed a bottle of Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum. Try this if at all possible, it's crazy!

Fudgee Barr - Milky Craze



Origin - Philippines

Rating - Good

WOOOOOOOO, it's crazy! This was a bit better than Macapuno Magic but still nothing special. I was hoping when we cut into it, egg yolks would pour out. They did not. Again no magic AND no craze. It's basically pound cake with a caramel icing inside but not much of it. As the packaging suggests, it's ideal for any occasion, so bust out these crazy mother fuckers at the next funeral you attend to lighten the mood. Maybe stick one in the corpse's mouth for a laugh.

Milky craze. If that means all the cool kids are doing it then I'm in. This is a slightly more appealing member of the Fudgee Barr family. Imagine if those clever folks at Hostess made a pound cake with a custard filling and there you go. And they ARE delightful for all occasions. I suggest it as the cake at your next truck stop wedding. Reviewed by Ms. K

Fudgee Barr - Macapuno Magic Flavour



Origin - Philippines
Rating - Boston Baked Beans
The name Fudgee Barr right away, makes me think of Rosanne Barr's panties. Wrong? Yes. It can't be helped. This little slice of ALF turd looks like a green muffin and doesn't have much of a smell that I could tell from. Inside we notice there is no cream but a slight glazing of snot. What a rip! Where's the FUCKING MAGIC??? It honestly doesn't taste bad, kind of like a coconut pound cake...but it's a little weird. Nothing like a Twinkie as the packaging would suggest. I could take it or leave it. It gets a BBB.
Reviewed by Andy X





Rating - Boston Baked Beans
It wasn't the green Twinkie we were expecting but it wasn't bad. A macapuno is a coconut that has more flesh than your regular coconut. You may be asking who decides and regulates this? Well kids the brave men and women of the Philippine Coconut Authority. I was also disappointed with the lack of filling. Especially since the package is pushing more filling. How could there be less? There was less of a coconut taste and more of all consuming taste of margarine. If that taste hadn't lingered for minutes this wouldn't have been so strange. How did they pack a whole tub into this tiny cake? Maybe that's the magic.

Companion - Cha'i-Pow-Yu Braised Gluten Tidbits



Origin - Taiwan
Rating - Donkey Shit x10
Upon first glance you'd swear you had a can of pickled vaginas, ready to serve of course. It smells like a dog rubbed it's ass along a piece of wood, what a fragrance. Let me first say that this is one of the worst things I've ever had to taste and the texture is light years beyond acceptable. IF you can get past what it looks like AND the fact it smells of soy sauce, wood and shit you discover a taste that keeps on giving long after you've probably gagged. There's definitely a soy taste and some kind of woody essence and OH GOOD, it squirts in your mouth when you take a bite! The texture is a cross between used tea bags and used snot-soaked kleen-ex. Did I mention it squirts? Wow. I actually was so thrown back I had to sit down and have a cigarette. This crap could be totally rotten and you'd never know.... Reviewed by Andy X


Rating - Donkey Shit
I hadn't been looking forward to this one. And for good reason. I think they found a shoebox of these under Ed Gein's bed. The can says ready to eat but after we opened it I didn't know if I would ever be ready. Holy crap, the smell!!! I'll admit I gagged a bit. They looked even more awful out of the can. Like water logged bits of skin. After amusing myself watching Andy eat his I took a breath and manned up. Thankfully they could not live up my imagined level of badness. The tidbits had the texture of a really thin egg omlette that had been soaking in an intensely pungent soy sauce. I'm happy to say mine did not squirt. I think this product is used to convert people into being gluten free.

Calpico (Calpis) - Original Flavour



Origin - Japan
Rating- Good / Awesome
Next up Calpico or Calpis if you prefer. It appeared to be watery milk. There was definite fruit smell that's impossible to explain because there is no fruit in it! Once it's in your mouth it has a strange thickness. Not unlike Sunny D. But after your taste buds adjust, it's pretty good. And I never thought I would say these words but pour me another glass of Russian Cow Piss. This is what the Dude would drink if he went to the land of the rising sun.

Rating - Good (On it's Own) / Awesome (As a cocktail)
What in Satan's love-jizz IS this stuff?? What we do know is that in North America it's called "Calpico", in Japan it's called "Calpis" (they changed the name so it doesn't sound like "cow piss"). I've even seen a bottle called "Calpis - Men's White Water", because that's definately better than cow-piss!! After opening the bottle, I noticed it has a very mild citrus smell, wasn't excpecting that. It has the flavour of maybe lemonade - yogurt, but very mild...maybe even a slight Kool-Aid taste. It's very watery but the texture is slightly thicker. What could improve on this? BOOZE, that's what.

This is a maple bacon lollipop I picked up on Ebay.
I'd say its good. Not great because it's a little
light on the bacon taste. There are little bits of

These are Effervescent Bacon Drink Tabs that I found on Ebay.
You are supposed to throw them in water and they make your

happened. They didn't dissolve. So then I tried throwing
them in club soda and that seemed to work better but it
tasted like slightly salty club soda at best. I'm going
to keep trying but right now this product sucks ass.

Pulparindo

Origin - Mexico


Rating - Boston Baked Beans
WHAT THE SHIT??? Upon opening and smelling the product you'll notice the smell of dirt. Possibly the smell of someone who sleeps in a barn...in the dirt. The taste is nothing you'd expect really, somewhat like "Fizz candy" mixed into a thick fruit roll-up although it's very sour and very intense (and even a little spicy). It's both chewy and sandy in texture. I can see why it's so small, I was in pain by the end, it's just too intense. I'm imagining a barn somewhere where they have crust punks locked up and constantly fed sugar, every Saturday someone comes along and carves a thick piece of dried skin off each of their heels and packages it up as Pulparindo. Too far? Boston Baked Beans, because I liked it for some reason...

If you love the idea of munching on the world's saltiest raisin, then this is the candy for you. Okay, this was not candy. Candy is sweet and delicious, not a gritty, spicy atrocity. A couple bites was all I could stand and I watched in horror as Andy continued to eat his. I'd like to thank Sugar Mountain for making this all possible by ignoring that fact that this item was not labeled for retail sale. The rat bastards. Reviewed by Ms. K

Glico Caplico mini Japan Cone - Strawberry Flavour

Origin - Japan / Thailand

Rating - Good
The name is a mouthful, sadly so is the cone. It was really small, about the size of my middle finger (**British Accent**~ UP YOURS GLICOOOOOOOOOO). It tasted great and had a really intense strawberry milkshake scent. It reminded me of slightly wet astronaut's (freeze dried) ice cream or as Ms. K pointed out, one of those layered wafer cookies. It is what it is.

The package makes you think cardboard cone with marshmallow filling. So on the first bite the texture caught me off guard. But on second bite I nailed it as strawberry wafer cookie. Tasty but not the food adventure your looking for. The only bad thing about it was the smell was very fake and a bit plastic-y, like Strawberry Shortcake's head.

On the "Munchies De Sade" blog, packaging is just as important as the food it contains. We see a mutant potato sprouting tumors and a sticker promising you free cars IF YOU'LL JUST TRY THESE GAWD-DANG SNACKS!!! Ok, I kinda made that last part up, it's some kind of contest I guess. But whatever, Potato Spicky don't need your stinking contest entries, they're fine just the way they are. Upon opening, I discovered they have a nice onion bread stick smell and they look like cheese straws. They're REALLY crunchy and have a great garlic / onion flavour. They remind me of "Crispers", you know the potato cracker? Same shit different shape. I really liked these.
