Event # 9 international snack box

For my 9^th and final event, I ordered an international snack box from Amazon. The box contained 17 snacks from at least 12 different countries maybe 13.  We each sampled all the snacks.  Some were just big enough for a small sample and others were a little bigger.  Then we each voted for our top 7, and then combined the votes to get the rankings.  The event was interesting and different because I didn’t pick out the different items, we just took what was there.  This added foods from different countries than I normally would have.  Here is the rundown of the 8 snacks that received votes

 

Lebanon              Grandour Dabke Biscuit sandwich with lemon cream filling          

This was okay, but I think it needs more lemon cream.

 

Croatia                Koestlin Cheese and Paprika  Saltas, Salted filled sticks   

This was a good snack.  They were pretzel sticks filled with cheese and paprika.   They were salty and had a tad of spice.

 

Bronze Spain      Gullon Creamwafer cookies        

This was a pretty good wafer cookie.

 

                                           

Silver       U.K.           Teashop Bourbon Creams           

A very good hard chocolate cookie with a good strong chocolate flavor and a slight bourbon flavor.

 

India                     Kurkure Green Chutney Style     

I thought these tasted good.  They had a salty, limey flavor but were really hot, too hot to really enjoy.

 

Gold Indonesia     Dolcetto Petites       Cookies and Cream Wafer Bites      

These were little chocolate cookies with Cookies and Cream filling.  These were delicious and just beat out the Teashop Bourbon Creams for the Gold medal!

 

Philippines           Jack and Jill Dewberry Blueberries and Cream                    

I didn’t particularly like these, but they did get a vote.   They had a good blueberry flavor, but the blueberries were chewy and rubbery.

 

                          

Poland  Goplana Grzeski  Orzecnowe (Milk chocolate-coated wafer bar with hazelnut  cream)            

     

This was a good wafer bar that was kind of like a Kit Kat.

                                            

Event # 9 was a fun and interesting event and was the perfect way to end the Food Olympics!  Thanks for reading and be sure to check out my Olympic recap in the next few days!
