I recently traveled to the oversized state for my brother’s college graduation and decided to raid H-E-B’s snack and international food aisles. (For the non-Texans, H-E-B is a giant grocery store filled with everything you need, including free samples — score!) It’s like Wegman’s with a Texas twist. I picked up snacks that were sweet, savory, and just plain repulsive because life’s too short to be boring. Then I packed them up, traveled back to the Big Apple, and tried them with my coworkers. Keep scrolling to see what we ate (and what we spit out). I gagged. I cried. I made an ugly face when I nibbled them both. Jess said it best: “I wouldn’t even give that to someone I hated.” Click here to buy them. It was love at first lick, and divorce by lick five. “[It] was the most confusing lollipop I have ever licked,” according to Jess. First it’s sweet, then the heat kicks in and your mouth is more confused than a child tasting Brussels sprouts for the first time. It’s not terrible, just different. But if I’m eating a center-filled lolly, you better believe it’s a Tootsie Pop. Click here to buy them. Yes, you can find chicharrones (pork cracklins) all around the country, but these have a hint of lime. And how much more south-of-the-border can you get? Even Jess says Latinos have been crunching on these babies for years! They’re delicious, crunchy, satisfying, and pair great with beer. Just don’t dwell on the fact that it’s fried pork skin… Click here to buy them. It’s sweet, sticky, crunchy, and guaranteed to give you a cavity. But it’s totally worth it. Click here to buy them. Spanish refresher: Fuego means fire. So if you’re not about that hot life, look for other flavors, like guacamole (and when you find said flavor, send it my way por favor). Click here to buy them. Aka, fairy poop. BUT, our beauty guru Alle is a masterful genius and put two Takis on top for a sweet and fire-y treat. YAAAAAAAAAS! Click here to buy them.
