Place: Bamboo Buffet & Grill
Lunch: Lunch buffet, Coke
Bamboo is in the same strip mall as Cici's. In between Cici's and Bamboo is Dollar Tree, one of those stores that sells all sort of crap for a buck. Over the past few weeks, I've seen a sign touting them now having a frozen food section. I keep meaning to go in and check it out, but never do.
Until today, that is.
So I go in. The frozen section is in the back, so I pass though other dollar items. Like cute little figurines. Pens. Drinking glasses. Toys. And snacks.
The snack selection is chips and candy, mostly. It's even better than the selection at Walgreens, and FAR cheaper. Maybe I should have come in here before.
Among the snacks are Burger King onion rings. These aren't actual onion rings...it's a puff corn snack in a bag like Cheetos, only browned on the outside, shaped like onion rings, and flavored to taste like onions. I've had them before, but have never EVER seen them in THIS market.
So yeah...I got some.
Next to them were a line of TGI Friday's-branded snacks, one of which was "mozzarella sticks".
Huh.
So yeah...I got some.
Then I browsed the freezer section, hoping they'd have some el cheapo Patio brand Mexican dinners, which I can't find anywhere anymore.
They didn't. The dinners are mostly Banquet, the grossest food made by anybody anywhere.
But they did have Resers burritos. In the large size, even.
So I'll be back for those later, when I can take them home and get them in the fridge.
I also snagged some taco shells. Because...I don't know. I just did, okay?
At the check stand, I spied caramel apple Sugar Babies. SERIOUSLY? HAVE to try those.
So yeah...I got some.
So...The Burger King snack was perfectly decent, just as I remember them being.
The mozarella sticks taste nothing like mozarella sticks or really anything discernable. Kind of bland. But not bad or gross or anything. I wouldn't buy them again, but I'll probably finish this bag eventually.
The caramel apple Sugar Babies taste exactly how you'd think they would.
Which, as it turns out, is kind of gross.
I should go to Aldi next.
I haven't been there in years.
