Using ingredients like apple extract, cane sugar and coffee leaves, Pepsi is rolling out it’s newest product in select cities in Europe right now. This stuff is supposedly less fizzy, lighter in color and saves you about 10 calories. They’re going for a healthier soda, but at what cost?

Hey, it DOES have something to do with food. Cheezburgers is a food! Get off my back!
Icanhascheezburger.com is user generate content at it’s best worst best! Take a picture of a cat, add a caption that makes it cute or funny(or in some cases, neither) and you’re an instant internet superstar! It’d look great on your resume!
Anyways, with 205 PAGES of lolcats, it’s a great time waster or pick-me-up when you’re feeling down. Most of them aren’t food related, but still definitely worth checking out if you haven’t already!
Check out this cool new way to spice your favorite food… you shoot it in the face! Zhu Fei from China unveiled it’s concept of the Spice Gun. All you need to do is pop it open, put in your favorite dry spices and pull the trigger. The Spice Gun actually shoots your seasonings out with a burst of air! Sounds cool and all, but how many drunk party related eye injuries do you think it’d take before there’s a lawsuit?

Maybe I have the sense of humor of a 5 year old. Or maybe I’m hoping to draw misplaced and confused Johnny Depp fans to netfoodie.com. Whatever the reason, I chose to review Pirate’s Booty from Robert’s American Gourmet Snacks .
I picked up my Booty (teehee) from Whole Foods Store in their chip aisle. I’ve seen these all over the place though: campus stores, vending machines, grocery stores, etc. The company apparently has an entire line of Booty chips ranging from Fruity Booty to Veggie Booty. I picked up my 4oz bag for 2 bucks on sale. The bag is bigger than it sounds because these are actually pretty light. I’d say about the size of a bag of Doritos.
Pirate’s Booty are aged white cheddar flavored puffs of rice and corn. They’re somewhat healthy- 5g of fat, 180 calories- and boast to be all natural. They’re very light and airy, almost like packing peanuts. Unlike packing peanuts, however, they taste great! The actual booty are very randomly shaped nuggets. Personally, I think they could have gone with a little more flavoring on it, but I’m a huge fan of white cheddar. They’re filling enough to snack on and healthy enough to not feel too bad.
Check out the pictures of my all natural Booty!
