Randy’s Donuts
Hey guys, I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Aamir Kadri and I am a big fan of food. Those who know me can visually (yes, visually) and emotionally see that. My love for food has been present from a very young age. I would like to thank Zubair for this opportunity to share my review. I hope I can continue to use this platform to share my love of food with you guys. I wanted my first post to combine my love of travel and food. Â I love to travel and try foods from all different areas of the world. I was born and raised in Connecticut and…

Double Chicken Zinger Sandwich @ Tallgrass Burger
Tallgrass Burger is burger place in Manhattan’s East Village that serves organic, grass fed halal meats . Since it’s Halal my wife can eat anything on the menu 🙂 I ordered the Double Chicken Zinger Sandwich which according to the menu consists of “two crispy and spicy breaded chicken patties with ranch dressing”. It was topped with lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles. After a seemingly long wait the sandwich was delivered to our table. It was served open face and thankfully the pickles were on the side (I’m not a pickle fan). The sandwich looked huge, the two generously sized chicken patties resulted in a thick sandwich. Biting into the…

Banana Pudding Doughnut @ Krispy Kreme
Krispy Kreme sent me an email that their limited time Strawberries and Kreme Doughnut and Banana Pudding Doughnut would be free on June 20th. I happened to be at Macy’s that day and figured I would duck into Penn Station and grab the Banana Pudding Doughnut. As you may know when you order 1 or 2 donuts Krispy Kreme puts them into a very slim bag. This results in a donut that is less than picturesque by the time you get it home. I was amazed that this one made it home unscathed during rush hour in Manhattan. Krispy Kreme describes the Banana Pudding Doughnut as “a sweet banana custard blended…

Great Value Indulgent Trail Mix
Trail mix dates back to the 1910’s when outdoorsman Horace Kephart recommended it in his popular camping guide. It seems that trail mix has evolved over the years from good old raisins and peanuts to lots of chocolate with some raisins and nuts. Anyone who reads Junk Foody knows that I have quite the sweet tooth so the more chocolate the better. 🙂 If I recall correctly I stumbled upon Great Value Indulgent Trail Mix shortly after I got married. My wife has banned it from our household because of my inability to eat it in human being sized portions. Great Value is Walmart’s store brand so this particular trail mix is…

Enlightened Movie Night
My brother took advantage of the ShopRite sale on Enlightened Ice Cream, $1.99/pint with a minimum purchase of 5 pints. When I visited him this weekend I sampled the Butter Pecan, French Toast and Movie Night. The most unique, original, and intriguing of the bunch was Movie Night. For those who don’t know, Enlightened is an ice cream maker and bills their product as “a high protein ice cream that tastes as great”. Let’s be honest, at 90 calories per serving and 360 calories in the entire pint this has the potential of being a relatively guilt free, kill it in one sitting kinda ice cream. Movie Night is “Popcorn…
