Space Cowboy KitchenWhere lazy chefs get together to discuss culinary theory
From Solid Cat: Nerdertainment COOKIES REVIEW: Cookie Dough Creme Oreos It's a cookie... with cookie dough in it. Val's Take: It tastes like the "beginning" of cookie dough. Pretty much butter-flavored Crisco, mixed with brown sugar and vanilla. Not a horrible experience, but not the greatest. D-mo's Take: The cookie dough "cream" tastes like the chocolate frosting on the cakes from the local Mexican market (the cakes are actually pretty good). However, I didn't get a true cookie dough flavor or experience. Review Verdict: (on a scale of 1-4 cookies) 2 COOKIES From Solid Cat: Chicken Smuggler Atholl Brose A Scottish oat, whisky, creme concoction Ingredients Directions 1. Soak oats in 2 cups of lukewarm water overnight. 2. Next day, drain oats in a strainer lined with cheesecloth or muslin. Squeeze the oats in the cloth to extract all liquid. Discard oats. 3. Mix 1 cup of strained oat milk with whisky in a large bowl. Gently whisk in honey, until dissolved. Add cream and stir. 4. Store, covered, in a pitcher in the fridge for up to 1 week. It gets even better on the 2nd or 3rd day, once flavours have had a chance to meld. 5. Serve chilled or over ice. From Solid Cat: Nerdertainment BOOZE REVIEW: Bud Light Lime LIME-ER-RITA It's like a margarita... in a can. Val's Take: When it hits your tongue, you are, "Yeah, margarita... complete with salt." But the aftertaste is not pleasant. Kind of has a formaldehyde taste at the end. Whatever good is in the front, is ruined in the back. D-mo's Take: I don't know about this. That "salt" flavor and scent really doesn't do it any favors. I get it, it's the full margarita experience, but it detracts. Review Verdict: (on a scale of 1-4 limes) 1 LIME BOOZE REVIEW BONUS: Bud Light Lime STRAW-BER-RITA It's like a strawberry margarita... in a can. Hey, there were only a buck a pop. Val's Take: I feel like I'm ok with this. Tastes like a strawberry Bartles and James. I'd drink this again. D-mo's Take: This is actually very good. Drinking it, I'm craving chips and salsa. Infinitely better than the Lime-er-rita. Imagine a Strawberry Fanta, but not as sweet. This, plus some ice in a blender, and I think we might have ourselves a good time. Review Verdict: (on a scale of 1-4 limes) 3 LIMES
