Kiriyeshki Salami Snack Croutons



Got these Russian snack croutons over at the SmartCost Market Russian store for $0.50 per pack. The flavor supposed to be salami, but it did not tasted like it, just a bit of liquid smoke type of flavor to these croutons. I was hungry, so I ate them all and did not complained.

Mario Pitted Snack Olives



Found these olives over at Jack's World for $0.15 per pack and bought one. I'm not a huge olives fan, but they were alright and I ate them all.

Campbell's Heat and Eat Cheesy O's




Found a bunch of these Heat and Eat soups at Deals for $1.00 each several months ago, and I kinda forgot to make a tear on the bag on this one, so it exploded and made a mess, but the cheesy soup was edible and I enjoyed it. They don't have it anymore in stock [I checked].

Stop & Shop Strawberry Soda



Pretty good strawberry soda that I got at Stop & Shop for $0.77. It has nice carbonation, and thats the thing that I was concerned about. Too bad that the nearest Stop & Shop is far from me, otherwise the $0.77 price for 2-liter bottles is pretty cheap, and they have wide selection of their private label of sodas.

Costco Sample of Dragon Board Spicy Pork Potstickers



Pretty decent potstickers that were sampled-out at Costco about a month ago. I did not buy them since they weren't on sale, but taste-wise they were pretty good [I like them]: not too spicy.

Jell-O Handi-Snacks Soarin' Strawberry Gelatin Kool-Aid Snacks




Found these 4-packs of gelatin cups over at Kmart in Manhattan for $1.00; its the best price in the city for a 4-pack. The quality/taste is very good since its made by Jell-O. I bought around 17 of these and ate them all in about 4 days.

Smoked Salmon Lox by Pound



I was at the NetCost Market yesterday and while I was checking out the seafood section, I stumbled upon these pre-packed containers of smoked salmon lox. Low price of just $1.39 per pound [$1.60 per whole container] attracted me to buy it and give it a try. I was fully prepared that these salmon slices would be total rotten crap, and that I would probably throw them out, but after taking a small bite out of slice, it tasted not bad. I downed the first slice and then 3 more with some Portugese bread. The lighter, pink slices taste much better than darker ones and they don't really have off-putting flavor or smell to them, and I found that this salmon was generally enjoyable. I'd rather prefer that all slices be pinkish, but for $1.60 you get what you get, and you can throw it out if you don't like it.  Its not "Grade A" smoked salmon, but for such low price its practically a steal; an excellent value! I will definitely buy more of these pre-packed containers in the future.
