Writing up the last of the Poland box, and then the first two of the new France box.

First up, Monster Munch.

I do not like these. The aftertaste is somehow too potato-y, the texture is passable but nothing to write home about, and the seasoning isn't strong enough to make up for the other shortcomings. There were a few bites where I could get a hint of what they were going for and I'd start to get excited. Then the aftertaste would hit and I'd get disappointed again. They aren't offensively bad but I did not finish the bag.

These are Truffee's & Co's French Cacao Truffles. And what a whiplash from the last one! The Monster Munch was my least-favorite snack so far, and this was my favorite. They are chocolate truffles with little bits of cookie inside for texture. The chocolate is rich and dark, there's a light coating of chocolate dust but not enough to be annoying, and all in all the only negative is that I wish there had been more in the bag.
A+

You know those red strawberry hard candies that old ladies always have for some reason? These taste exactly like those, but they are softer. Note I said "soft
er
" and not "soft"; you still aren't going to bite right through these. The chewiness is kind of like mochi. These are... fine, I guess.

Most of the France box looks good although I am wary of the chevre-and-espelette-chili potato chips because I traditionally do not care for goat cheese.

I loved those goat cheese chips. The truffles were my favorites though.
