There’s no added yellow color, which isn’t really important. For a sharp cheddar, this has a rather weak taste. Physically this is also rather soft for a sharp cheddar. There’s a peppery-like sharpness after a few seconds on the tongue. This is not what I expect from a sharp cheddar. On the plus side, the price at $4.99 per pound is rather reasonable. Calories clock in at 120 per ounce.

Here’s a step up from your basic under $1 frozen burrito. This is a roughly 7 1/2 inch tortilla folded over in half on the filling. In short, it’s a quesadilla. The tortilla is “pre-toasted” giving it some substance even after freezing. At 400 calories it’s big enough to feel like you’ve had more than a snack. The filling is tasty and mildly spicy. On the negative side, the filling is somewhat pasty – although not as much as those under $1 frozen burritos. There are small chunks of chicken mixed in with the other ingredients giving the filling a little more texture. The quesadilla cooks up nicely in the microwave using the printed directions (3 minutes on 50% power and then 1 minute on high). Overall, for a relatively inexpensive frozen entrée, this is a good choice but not reaching the level of greatness.

This is my first encounter with “Korean” food. So there’s no point of reference for comparison. However I’m reasonably sure that a decent Korean restaurant would provide a much better first experience.

Rustic comes to mind from first uncorking to finish. This is rough around all the edges, but not overly rough. From the Colchagua Valley of Chile, this is a good table wine. The wine is mildly dry on the roof of the mouth with a medium red color. The taste dissipates quickly making it difficult to pick up significant traits, either good or bad, except for a long lingering warmness in the mouth and beyond. Most importantly at this price, there’s nothing wrong with the wine. Especially if you’re in the habit of drinking wine with meals, this is a good inexpensive $4.99 red wine to accompany an everyday meal.

This is a wine with a 91 rating and a $7 price. And it’s at ALDI of all places. Can it be possible?
Here’s another good whole bean coffee from Central America and Trader Joe’s. This is labeled as both fair trade and organic. The whole beans are given an extra dark roast.
