Taste Test Dummies John&Nick

Which Brie is best? When you are feeling a bit charcuterie-ey Looking through the cheese options in a grocery store can be intimidating.  Normally Nick and John just look for sales and try to at least buy a cheaper option then forget what we purchased. But do you really want to live your life eating everyone else's leftover cheese?  Those of you who said yes can see themselves out. Those who stayed will get insights on which Brie is actually worth buying, instead of the guess and forget method.  This weeks contenders are Le Fromager, President, and Saint Angel.  Please like and subscribe and if you have any suggestions, let us know by tweeting us @tastetestdummies or email us at nickandjohnpodcast@gmail.com.

Which American IPA is best? A while back the Hazy IPA hit a level of popularity which pressured Nick into bringing it as the first IPA on this podcast.  Now a year or so later, we find ourselves missing the good old fashion IPAs we originally fell for.  Today we are taking a strangely nostalgic trip through some of the American Style IPAs that used to be our go to (and only) option.  The contenders are Goose Island IPA, New Belgium Voodoo Ranger, Sierra Nevada Torpedo, and Surly Furious.  Please like and subscribe and if you have any suggestions, let us know by tweeting us @tastetestdummies or email us at nickandjohnpodcast@gmail.com.

Which Diet Cola is best? Sodas with alternative sugars are becoming more popular all the time as it presents a way for the consumer to drink their beloved sodas, while still feeling good about themselves because they just consumed a  calorie free beverage.  Although health benefits are much more complicated than a calorie counter, here at Taste Test Dummies we fully endorse the "pretend this is good for me" methodology.  With this wishful thinking in mind, we will try out 4 Diet Colas this week.  The contenders are Diet Coke, Diet Faygo, Diet Pepsi, and Diet Rite.  Please like and subscribe and if you have any suggestions, let us know by tweeting us @tastetestdummies or email us at nickandjohnpodcast@gmail.com.

Which French Onion Dip is best?  On their own, a ruffled potato chip is a mediocre chip on a good day.  When you take the Ruffles and use them as a vessel to get dip into your mouth, we are looking at an entirely different story.  This week we are trying 3 pre-made French Onion Dips, the undisputed best dip to pair with potato chips (legally I am required to point out that my prior statement was a [correct] opinion, not a fact).  The contenders are Daisy, Dean's and Lay's.  Please like and subscribe and if you have any suggestions, let us know by tweeting us @tastetestdummies or email us at nickandjohnpodcast@gmail.com.

Which Tortilla Chip is best?  We've tried Salsa and Guacamole, but we haven't yet asked what the best vessel for these dips are, that is until today.  The tortilla chip is often overlooked in the dip formula, but small differences in texture, and salt level can make a surprisingly big difference.  The contenders for today are Late July, On The Border, Tostitos, and Xochitl.  Please like and subscribe and if you have any suggestions, let us know by tweeting us @tastetestdummies or email us at nickandjohnpodcast@gmail.com.

Which Orange sports drink is best?  Our first round of sports drink was with a more obscure flavor (grape), but this time we are getting back to one of the original flavors.  Non-Gatorade versions of lemon lime proved hard to come by, and Fruit Punch is disgusting, so the obvious choice was to try out Orange flavored sports drinks.  The contenders are Gatorade, Ghost, and Powerade.  Please like and subscribe and if you have any suggestions, let us know by tweeting us @tastetestdummies or email us at nickandjohnpodcast@gmail.com.
