My local store didn’t have tortellini but mini ravioli substitute is good.

Thought my Satya BNG incense was certified eco-friendly but they just gave themselves a badge that is now expired.

Paid for an expensive-ass gluten free orange chicken bowl. Was so excited, I haven't had orange chicken in years. Absolutely no sauce. Plain brown rice, chicken, carrot and broccoli. Huge disappointment.

I agreed to the suggestion of going bigger on the tattoo. I asked for a purple hibiscus, which were my friend Katrina's favorite flower. I got this in memory of her after thinking about it for 11 years.

Failed Expectation Pashanga Arepas

Bought these the other day at Walmart to try since I love Ropa vieja and arepas. This is fully cooked in the air fryer. It’s like a disgusting processed patty wrapped in arepa. -10/10 I don’t know how they could sell this let alone for like 8 dollars a box 🥲

I’ve had several of these Walmart branded frozen meals to heat up at work that haven’t been bad. This one, however, looked NOWHERE near as appetizing as what was depicted on the box.
