Mountain Dew Baja Cabo Citrus is back for 365 days.

This version is also available in ZS, but the most interesting thing is that this is a reformulated recipe including no artificial dyes or colors...

Anyone notice any differences when trying this new version?

Our first contestant in the ultimate ranch battle is McDonald's

The packaging is subtle and simply branded. The top peeled off in one piece which is crucial for me. I don't want to be fighting to get into the ranch. The size is ok.. it's not going to lose or gain any points for size.

Overall, Packaging gets a 1 out of 2

Tang and Runniness are both non-existent. This is a thick ranch that is labeled as "Creamy Ranch". It's not buttermilk, it's not tangy and it's thiccccc. Not what I'm looking for personally.

Tang/Runniness gets a 0 out of 3

Overall taste is another let down for me. After I dipped the chicken, I tried the ranch solo on my finger (as one does) and I found it to be extremely bland. I actually was pi**ed I didn't get another sauce because now I'm stuck with nasty ranch and mediocre chicken strips.

Overall Taste gets a 2 out of 5

That brings McDonald's final ranch score to 3/10 which unfortunately moves this into D tier.

Last night we went to LongHorn Steakhouse and we probably had one of the best steaks we ever had.

Longhorn has a new 7 Pepper and Brown Butter 14oz Strip Steak. I've been to high end steak houses all over the country and I can honestly say this steak rivals those steaks. Earlier this year I had a great steak at the Capital Grille and this steak I had at Longhorn last night was better.

The price for this steak, which comes with 2 sides is $32.00 which is incredible considering most steakhouses will charge you 60-70 and then the sides are extra.

The pepper blend that they use creates a beautiful char when it hits their grill and really opens up the fragrance of the spices. The steak is brushed and finished with a delicious brown butter that fills the plate and soaks into your sides which is incredible.

The steak is cooked to perfection, tender, flavorful and affordable. I had it last night and I can't stop thinking about it.

I'd also like to say that even though the restaurant was extremely busy, everything came out fast and service was personable and efficient. It was such a fantastic experience in an era where service and customer experience seems to be not as important anymore.

The steak is a limited time item so if you're wanting to give it a try, make sure you hurry!

We Review Stuff

For years, I have had a passion to share my opinion with folks on what I think of food and movies. Thus, I started this page to entertain. Some of the things that we try and do really do suck. Most don’t. Either way, this is my little way of sharing my thoughts with you on fun and trending topics around the 330. Enjoy!
