Summer's here, and you know what that means:
Of course I'm referring to yogurt, or in this case the latest Yoplait varieties. I've tried their cross-promotions with Starburst, Skittles, Gushers, and Girl Scout Cookies, so Kool-Aid is hardly a stretch. And look, the logo is even busting through a wall like the Kool-Aid Man!
As is typical for Kool-Aid, the color is not something seen in nature.
And the stuff tastes like Kool-Aid, too. What you think of that depends on how much you like Kool-Aid, or fear the Kool-Aid Man coming through your house.
On a healthier note, here's another new varietal of apple that I like. Presenting the Cosmic Crisp!
Like the SugarBee, which I reviewed in May, the Cosmic Crisp was cultivated from the Honeycrisp in Washington State. It's a cross between a Honeycrisp and an Empire, actually. It's a good, sweet eating apple, but is also recommended for cooking. The site says it's "ideal for snacking, cooking, baking, and entertaining." I mean, it's not that entertaining just sitting there, but your mileage may vary.
Very delicious, but whenever I eat one I hear Fred Schneider and the B-52's singing:
Don't let it rest on the president's desk, rock the house
Cosmic, cosmic
Eat that thing, eat that thing, oh yeah
Eat that thing, eat that thing, oh yeah
Which is a little disturbing.
If you wanted to make a whole cosmic breakfast for yourself, eat the apple, forget the yogurt, and have a bowl of this:

What? Kellogg's absorbed Little Debbie?
Remember those colored aluminum tumblers that were popular in the 60s? One of those filled with ice cold Kool-Aid was an unbeatable summer treat. I can still taste the faintly metallic tang.
Anything with "Cosmic" in its name, especially foods, just screams "STUPID HIPPIE SH*T" to me. That being said, I do like their brownies.
