Movie Snack Review: Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies


The Grandma’s Cookie company has been around since 1914. They make different types of cookies and can be purchased for next to nothing. Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies are one of the items produced by this company. However, are they a great snack to eat at home while enjoying a movie? Here is a useful review of Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies:

Health factor
Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies have lots of saturated fat. This is not an appealing aspect of the sweet snack. It also has Trans fat, which has been removed from various fast food products at companies including KFC and Dunkin Donuts. The fat and cholesterol levels in Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies are worth considering when you want to eat this snack food. It may not be a good idea for those with heart disease or high blood pressure.

Price
One of the reasons that I like Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies is because it is cheap. You can get a pack of these cookies for fifty cents at local mom and pop stores, drug stores like Rite Aid and gas stations. The packaging is attractive and there are 8 or more cookies inside. The low price makes Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies worth your money. It is easy to get full on half of the package. These cookies are about the same size as Oreos.

While Nutter Butter cookies are a quality competitor, the Grandma’s brand wins in this area. You can save anywhere between 10 and 20 cents when purchasing Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies over other brands like Nutter Butter. That may not seem like a lot of money, but savings add up over time. This is especially true for parents with young children. Why would I want to spend $1.38 or more on two Nutter Butter packages when the same amount of Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies can be obtained for $1? The choice is easy when it comes to price.

Taste Test
I tried the Grandma’s Homestyle Peanut Butter Cookies a few times. While this snack item includes a rather large portion, the sandwich cookies taste better. Both the cookies and cream have a good peanut butter flavor that is different from other brands. Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies are not too hard and can be eaten with ice cream. This snack is best when eaten in moderation. Too much consumption of Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies may cause you to become sick. This is because it is easy to favor this snack and continue to eat multiple packages at once. However, that is not recommended.

Verdict
Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies are delicious snack items. They can be eaten for dessert or one quick afternoon treat. This is not the best choice if you are on a diet or want to limit the intake of fats and cholesterol. Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies barely has any nutritional value. It is one great food choice for junk food lovers who enjoy sweet products. If you can get away with it, Grandma’s Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies is an affordable and great tasting snack.

All I Want for Christmas Giveaway makes my day

Christmas can be one of the most fun times and also one of the times where you really get a reality check. There are about a dozen things that I could love to have for Christmas, yet cannot afford to get all of them. You may be experiencing the same holiday limits but everything just may work out well. One of the greatest shopping websites is holding an All I want for Christmas Giveaway where one person and 5 friends can win gifts of their choice from Overstock.com valued up to $1000. That is one of the most fantastic giveaways that I have found this season. There are quite a few things that could be obtained during this giveaway.

I would love to win a Nikon Coolpix P4 8.1MP Digital Camera so that I could take some pictures around my apartment that seems to be falling apart. It seems that everyone and their mother has a digital camera and I am still using a regular one that I have had since the 90s. Don't get me wrong, my camera is good and produces adequate photos. A digital camera won from this giveaway however, would help me out a lot and be useful for taking behind the scenes photos during video and film productions. If I won, the 5 friends that I invited to register for the giveaway would win their chosen gifts too.

I find that to be great since this could be the cheapest way to give friends a Christmas gift. My friend Chellbee loves to shop, so I would refer her to the giveaway first. It would surely help her to complete her DVD collection of Sex in The City and Grey's Anatomy. I would also refer my friend David so that he could get a cool electronics product like networking devices or radio accessories for his car. Speaking of electronics, I cannot forget C-Slash, one of my favorite rappers. All he wants for Christmas is a laptop computer.

This giveaway is the perfect opportunity for him to get that because if I cannot buy myself a digital camera, I surely am not spending $600 or more to try and give him a laptop for Christmas. I'd rather spead that money out to cover gifts for numerous friends. So let's see, with this Christmas giveaway, I would refer Chellbee, C-Slash and David so far. This includes some of my friends on Myspace although I still have two more to go. My friend Tiff has a beautiful daughter that seems to take up all of her spending money. Therefore, I would refer her so that she can get a cut outfit for herself or maybe a useful item for her new home. With one close friend left over, I'd probably refer my longtime friend Carla so that she could get a designer bag. She is a girly girl, so I know that she would love it for Christmas. This Overstock.com Christmas giveaway will bring lots of excitement and gifts for all. It will last for 5 days with prizes given away everyday. What a great way to bring in the new year!

Making Movies in Texas...or what would YOU do?


The town of Albert, Texas was put up for sale at a little over $2 million earlier this season. I recently found out that the owner was auctioning this town off on Ebay. If that was not enough, someone in Italy placed a winning bid of $3.8 million last week. That is not good because you see, I WANT that town! The website for Albert, Texas still has a sign up saying that it is for sale. Therefore, it would be great if we all could chip in to buy this town if the Italy person doesn't get it. Sure, the price might be up one million, but I can just imagine how many movies could be made there.

Based on photos located throughout the website for Albert, Texas, the town has a history that is rich in music, close family values and community. I would not have to search very far for actors and actresses which would be grand. The local residents could star in films and then watch them at a local movie theater or mirocinema. I'd have built-in crew, talent and built-in business because you know, people like to watch themselves acting up. Still, I could spice things up and cast some actors from Dallas, Houston, Austin and Miami. It would be the most fun that one could ever have.

So, I'm writing this to you all, my readers. All I want for Christmas is the town of Albert, Texas. You can either buy it for me or donate some cash to me. I will even let you come to visit and name a street after you!

Now, enough about me and movies for a second. What would YOU do if you owned the town of Albert, Texas? Leave your comments below?
