Things that are new: Virgil's Root Beer

I've had Virgil's in the past. It was a bit strong in the wintergreen. This version is imported from Bavaria in these nice cool bottles. After one sip, I could tell this wasn't the same as the regular version. It is far far better. I'm not sure if it's worth the $5 per bottle I paid, but it's pretty darn good. It has a great smooth flavor and creamy texture. Clearly one of the best, if not the best root beer I've had. I'll go with giving this a perfect 10 out of 10. Very yummy. If you happen to find it, I recommend giving it a try.

Things that are new: Pretzel M&Ms

On the heels of the coconut M&Ms, I tried these. Although I liked them better, I don't think I will go out of my way to buy more. The combo of chocolate and salty pretzels is always good, but this is just okay. 6 out of 10.

Things that are new: Coconut M&Ms

I found these in Hawaii. Costco sold them by the case. I bought a couple of bags from an ABC Store and gave them a try when I got home. I'm not a big fan of coconut, so I was a bit skeptical. The flavor was pretty mild, so it didn't overwhelm me. I wasn't super crazy about this new flavor and probably would not buy any more. Several of July coworkers that like coconut also tried these and did like them.

For me, I give them a 4/10. Others would likely rate them higher though.
