#Ad Pepsi Next, Doritos & Cheetos “Family and Friends BBQ” #FritoLayFreeForAll #Giveaway

May 14, 2013 by Momstart 152 Comments

This post is sponsored by Frito Lay.

Our Family and Friends BBQ turned into a car trip to Disneyland. Ok, now wait, my husband and I love to have people over for BBQ’s and we do and did before our trip to Disneyland. One bag of chips was used before we left, one was used while I was still driving back from our car trip and two bags were used on our road trip. What am I talking about? I’m talking about the Pepsi Next, Doritos, and Cheetos that Frito Lay sent to us to have a Family and Friends BBQ celebration in honor of the FREE FOR ALL on May 17th inside your local Kroger. (During the event, shoppers can visit their local chain to score free samples of select PepsiCo brands, while supplies last. The last Free For All Friday event is all about taking snacking to a whole new level by offering free samples of some of its newest, boldest and most innovative PepsiCo products which include: Doritos Locos Tacos tortilla chips, Cheetos MIX-UPS snacks and Pepsi Next.)

Free-for-All-ProductsFree-for-All-Banner

Frito Lay sent us three bags of chips and my husband at al of the Doritos Locos Tacos all by himself so last night, since he knew I had to take photos of them for the blog he brought two more bags home. And last night one bag disappeared between the two of us. My husband said he LOVES the Doritos Locos Taco, which should be a surprise since be purchased two more bags all on his own.

Doritos® Locos Tacos Flavored Tortilla Chips

  • “What’s better than tacos and Doritos? Taco and Nacho Doritos flavored tortilla chips all in one bag!”
  • “It’s like a crunchy delicious taco and your favorite Nacho Dorito all in one bag! Can you handle this much kick in one tortilla chip?”

So let me tell you about the car ride. We drove 12 hours straight from 5 PM until 9 from Seattle to San Francisco. Then the following weekend we did it again driving all the way to LA. To get through the night my husband and I were eating the Cheetos Mix-Ups.

Cheetos® MixUps Xtra Cheezy Mix and Cheetos® MixUps Cheezy Salsa Mix

• Looking for a family snack everyone can agree on? New Cheetos MixUps offer four shapes and four flavors in every bag. Something for everyone to love!

• “Feeling a little zippy? New Cheezy salsa Mix-Ups spice up your favorite Cheetos cheddar puff with salsa picante, jalapeno, and chipotle cheddar!”

• “New Xtra Cheezy MixUps have four cheese flavors all in one bag! Try cheddar, parmesan, double cheddar and nacho cheese flavored Cheetos!”

I loved the salsa flavor on the Cheetos Mix-Ups. My husband liked them too. He said he would always prefer Cheetos over any other chip, I guess that’s true except for the Doritos.

I forgot to take the Pepsi Next with me though on the road trip:

Pepsi NEXT

  • A game-changer in the cola category: the first to deliver real cola taste with 60% less sugar than Pepsi-Cola
  • After years of research and development, we’ve unlocked the great taste of Pepsi NEXT, the choice for consumers who want real cola taste with less sugar.
  • If you love the taste of Pepsi but they don’t believe you can achieve full-flavor taste with a diet cola, then you have to try Pepsi Next to believe it.
  • Pepsi NEXT is crafted from the right mix of cola flavor and a blend of sweeteners to closely match the real cola taste you expect from Pepsi, with 60% less sugar.

Frito Lay & Kroger Free For All Chicken and Waffles, Sriracha and Cheesy Garlic Bread Event March 15th #KrogerFreeForAll #Giveaway

March 11, 2013 by Momstart 265 Comments

Oh my gosh I have to say that I LOVE Frito Lay brand. They make the best chip flavors and I think they actually own the chip scene if you ask me. BBQ flavors, Lays, Doritos, oh and so so many more. Well just think what would you do at a Free For All? Me, I’d get quite full!  Free For All is a series of three events hosted at Kroger (and its banner (including Fred Meyer for PNW locals)) stores across the U.S.where shoppers can visit their local chain to score free samples of select PepsiCo brands, while supplies last of course and I expect them to go fast. This year’s Free For All promotion builds on the success of 2012, where 2.4million bags of Frito-Lay snacks were given to Kroger shoppers in one day.

Food Should Taste Good… And Boy Oh Boy Does It! Almost as Good as Their Amazing Giveaways!

June 12, 2011 by Momstart 2 Comments

clip_image002A couple of years ago, before mommyhood, my husband and I made a pretty conscious decision to eat healthier. We started buying more natural products and cut out a lot of the junk that was part of our regular diet. After having my son, my awareness of natural products was definitely amped up! I work hard to try and have as many natural things as I can for all 3 of us while sticking to a tight budget. One of the hardest things to replace healthily and naturally is snack food. There is nothing like curling up on the couch with a bag of chips while zoning out into some mindless television (not that any of us necessarily have much time for that… but you know what I’m saying…).

clip_image004 I was recently sent a sample of Food Should Taste Good’s newest flavored chips. I was able to try the White Cheddar and the Toasted Sesame. I have to say, the name of the company says it all. Food SHOULD taste good, and this company makes sure that it does. Their products are made with high quality natural ingredients. There are so many perks to these chips (some might call them crackers). This is a partial description from the Food Should Taste Good website:

All chip varieties are gluten free, cholesterol free, have no trans fats and do not use genetically modified ingredients (GMOs). They are also certified Kosher, low in sodium and are a good source of dietary fiber. The chips combine the crunchiness of a chip, the crispiness of a cracker, and the dippability of a tortilla chip.

clip_image006My truly unbiased opinion is that this product holds true to all of its claims. These are not going to be like your “normal” potato chip. They are not thin or greasy. In fact, the Food Should Taste Good chips are very hearty. They have a deep grain flavor and texture. The cheese on the White Cheddar variety is delicious, just like REAL cheese. The Toasted Sesame variety is definitely best with some type of dip (try hummus or salsa….YUM!). These are definitely a snack worthy of a curled up on the couch TV session.

Food Should Taste Good has great deals and promotions on their website, including a $1 off coupon. They even have a Food Should Taste Good Facebook page. You should definitely check that out for some great giveaways.

Not only does Food Should Taste Good provide healthy, natural, snacks, they also recently launched Let’s Summer. From now until September 5, Food Should Taste Good will be giving away 100 prizes a day to their fans. Prizes include portable Weber® Q® 100 gas grills, Creative D100 Wireless Bluetooth Speakers, FlipTM video cameras, iTunes® gift cards and of course, plenty of Food Should Taste Good chips!

From now until September 5, Food Should Taste Good munchers will find a 7-digit entry code on the top right corner of all Food Should Taste Good brand products. You enter your 7-digit code at LetsSummer.com.

Happy snacking! Good luck in the giveaways! =)
