Honolulu Cookie Company Chocolate chip macademia mini bites short review

Amid the Olympics, I have grown a sweet tooth. I found these at my Costco and wanted to get them for 2 reasons: they will satisfy my sweet tooth, AND I really like Macadamia nuts.

If you read the small print, these are actually shortbread cookies.

impressions:

they are pineapple-shaped
no chocolate or macadamia nut taste

strong caramel taste

tiny pineapple-shaped shortbread bites

When I checked the back of the packaging, I couldn't find any red flags... and I was surprised that these cookies only contain 1.4g of sugar per piece!

I'm disappointed there was hardly any Macadamia nut or chocolate taste (as the name suggests it should!), but these shortbread cookies are good at the end of the day. I like the strong presence of caramel in each piece.

Imperial Popcorn Movie Cinema Popcorn short review

I have been on the hunt for movie theatre-style popcorn for a very long time! No matter how closely I followed people's recipes, they just didn't taste quite like the ones at movie theatres. But that all changed the moment I picked up this bag of popcorn at Walmart. To my delight, it turned out to be the closest thing to movie theater popcorn I've ever had!

the actual popcorn

The popcorn has the same yellow hue as the ones you get at the theatre, and the salty, savoury flavor is quite similar too. Just give the bag a good shake to get the perfect ratio of savoury and plain bites.

I'm so happy I gave it a chance! If you're in Canada* and love movie theater popcorn, definitely give this a try. You won't be disappointed!
