Archer Farms Blueberry Granola with Flax Cereal

I love me some blueberries. Especially with milk or something creamy. Blueberry ice cream is one of the most underrated commodities in the universe. And blueberry cereals are some of the greatest accomplishments of mankind. Think Boo-berry. Or Special K with Blueberries.

But this $0.99 bag had about 4 or 5 blueberries total. And there are at least 10 in the picture on the bag. False advertising.

However, there was a sort of blueberry "dust" throughout the product, which made its overall lack of whole blueberries tolerable. I don't know, maybe there were lots more blueberries in the bag when it got shipped, but due to settling and shaking in transit, most of them got pulverized.

Either way, there was just enough blue stuff in the bag to make this cereal interesting and tasty. Let's face it: granola and flax isn't a very exciting breakfast treat. But add blueberries and the kids'll come running. (I don't have kids. The "kids" in this case are my wife and I. We're in our thirties.)

So far, none of the AF cereals I've tried stands head and shoulders above the others. Please take a look at my reviews of their Pecan Sticky Bun Granola and their Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti. None of the three have been terrible, but none of them have rocked my socks off, either.

This blueberry granola gets 7 out of 10 stars from me.

Archer Farms Bolognese Pizza

If I had to guess what this pizza was all about just based on its name, I would of course assume that it had bologna as a topping. Which, of course, would be wrong. It does, however, have a "beef Bolognese sauce." Yay! Meat, right?

Well, sort of. It's more like a "meat-flavored" sauce than a topping that contains actual chunks of beef. Don't expect a meat-lovers pizza here and you might not be too disappointed. Apparently a Bolognese sauce is a traditional pasta sauce originating from Bologna, Italy, and it's only supposed to contain very finely-chopped or minced meat—not meat chunks. If I had educated myself before purchasing, I might not have felt so let-down.

But on a more positive note, the mozzarella and fontina cheeses taste great. If you've had any other AF pizzas, you know more or less what to expect from the crust. This one boasts that it has a "hand-stretched crust," but then again, so do the Eggplant Parm Pizza and the Spinach and Goat Cheese Pizza. But to me, the crusts all taste pretty much the same as the Mediterranean Pizza, which supposedly does not have said "hand-stretched crust."

Overall, the typical AF crust, the semi-meaty tomato sauce, and the two unique cheese flavors come together to make a fairly snacktastic pizza. It doesn't have a heavy, overwhelming flavor at all. Think of the delicate flavor of a nice, fresh mozzarella cheese and add to it a mild meat-flavored pasta sauce, and you can pretty well imagine what this pizza tastes like.

This pizza earns 7 out of 10 stars.
