Food Blog Spotlight : From My Own Kitchen: Pomegranate Milkshake (Reblog)

Years back I started a pinboard dedicated to pomegranates. (See board description below.) I heart pomegranates.  Pinned this post to my pinboard and I am also reblogging the link here.  "From My Own Kitchen" is a wonderful food blog.  The post archives date back to 2012. Have you ever had a pomegranate milkshake?

Tropickles! OR Tropickles? Walmart's Idea for Satisfying Cravings

Not sure if this is an idea who time has come or what!  Yes, I know lots of pregnant ladies crave pickles and ice cream.  But can you ever remember anybody craving fruit punch flavored pickles?  Not sure how the foodie folks at Walmart came up with this idea.  Maybe there were a bunch of pregnant ladies working in that department.  ☺

As usual, PopSugar is on top of things all thing food-related and has published a review of this product.

• Cullum, Erin. “So Walmart Just Launched Tropickles, Aka Fruit-Punch-Flavored Pickles.” POPSUGAR Food, POPSUGAR Living, 23 July 2017, www.popsugar.com/food/What-Tropickles-43744495.

Chowhound also has something to say about them.

“As unconventional as it may sound, this unlikely flavor combination is one for the books. Tangy-sweet bread and butter pickle juice against a salty peanut butter topping makes for an incredibly rich, balanced ice-cream-eating experience.”

A 24 oz. jar less than $2.

I shop at Walmart a lot. But when it comes to strange and exotic foods, I try to talk my kids into trying them out first.  What?  I got the idea from an old cereal commercial I used to watch on TV where kids were curious to try a new cereal and the way they tested it was to coax their baby brother into eating it first.  If he liked it then it must be OK.  So?  If it's a new food product?  If my kids like it, then it must be OK!
