Let’s check back to the “Bomb Ass Snack Shop” thread on Reddit.
You know, I’ve never been inside of Five Below, so this is a good excuse to stop by, take a look around and get some snackage! And yes, I just made up the word, snackage, I can do that because this is my blog! So there!

Five Below
Here we are at Five Below in the Glen Hollow Shopping Center. I’ve been by this place many times, but never stopped in.
Let’s go in and check it out, they are very proud of the fact that they have helium balloons in here!
Wow, there’s lots of stuff in here and I see a snack area right over there…
Check it out, they have an entire wall of snacks in here!
Okay, let’s choose a few and head back to the MBIP World Headquarters Snacking Area!

The MBIP World Headquarters Snacking Area
Here’s this week’s bag of snackage!
Here they are unbagged.
Let’s now check out all five, below. (See what I just did there!)

Snack Number One: Turtle Chips - Seaweed Flavor
Hmmm…I’ve never had a seaweed flavored snack!
Yikes and after sampling this seaweed snack, I hope to never have another one!
The flavor of this is hideous! It’s like a salty, crunchy grassy taste. Who in the world thought that seaweed would be a nice snack flavor?
What’s next, a whale sperm candy bar? Let’s just move along here!
——
Snack Number Two: Baked Shrimp Chips
The next snack item is Baked Shrimp Chips. I’ve never had a shrimp flavored chip before, either.
Deja vu…just like the seaweed snack, I hope to never have this flavor in my mouth again!
It was a weird salty flavor, kind of had an insect-like flavor. I’ve never eaten an insect and now I feel like I have.
And now I’m bugging out over this, let’s move along quickly and hope this snacking session improves!
——
Snack Number Three: Boom Chicka Pop Cinnabon Drizzled Kettle Corn
Here’s a bag of popcorn that promises to taste like Cinnabon cinnamon rolls.
It tastes like caramel corn, but nothing like a Cinnabon cinnamon roll. It’s not horrible but disappointing none the less!
Okay, move along as we must!
——
Snack Number Four: Pocky Mint Cream Covered Biscuit Sticks
This looks more like a pack of cigarettes than a snack item!
I tried and tried but I could not get these things to light up.
Next!
——
Snack Item Number Five: Oreo - The Most Stuf
I absolutely HATE it when words are deliberately misspelled on packages to be cute. Why spell the word, “stuff” with just one “f?” Hey Nabisco, when someone tells you to “get the f out of here,” you don’t need to take it literally!
And that cookie looks like an Oreo with a weird thyroid condition or something.
To quote George Harrison: “It’s all too much…”
Sometimes you eat the snacks and sometimes the snacks eat you. Let’s hope for better snacking next week.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
