The tag line on the new Cherry Dr. Pepper is “amazingly smooth.” I am here to say that this soft drink is so smooth that you can’t even taste it. I took a swig and swirled it around to get my reaction to the new drink and immediately came to a conclusion. I kept it [...]

How do you take junk food and make it junkier?
January 23rd, 2009
Chris Doelle I know junkier is not a word, but trust me – it applies. I just had to snap a pic after I saw this at the checkout of my local 7-11. You are looking at a Butterfinger BUZZ! Yes, you read that right “With as much caffeine as the leading energy drink!” So take the [...]
Carl’s Jr. comes to San Marcos
November 26th, 2008
Chris Doelle I used to be a big fan of Carl’s Jr. hamburgers – we are talking from way back in the day (like the 80′s.) Although I had never actually eaten one until much later, they advertised on all the LA Lakers games. Being a Laker fan since I started watching basketball, and being the the [...]
Wanna earn $5 the easy way? NO, this is not an MLM scheme – haha
November 19th, 2008
Chris Doelle Okay, here’s the deal. I am trying to stop drinking soft drinks. I had pretty much eliminated them from the lifestyle and then, because I am do impressionable, I started drinking them again when Blake moved to San Marcos. (I really am that weak when it comes to food and beverage that is bad for [...]
I guess spicy is out now
October 31st, 2008
Chris Doelle Part of growing older is adapting to certain changes. I have been blessed in that complaints my friends talk about (vision dropping dramatically at 40, stiffness and pain getting up in the morning, the need to head to bed earlier than in their youth, and the ability to eat like a teenager) haven’t really bothered [...]
Sometimes smaller is better
October 29th, 2008
Chris Doelle My trend of posting entries related to Mountain Dew (or Cheetos) continues! Eric brought in some very cool Mt. Dew bottles to the office and I was struck by how small they were. These are not your typical 16 oz bottles, but 12 oz. Big deal right? Four ounces. Well, I have been a fan [...]
Finally!
October 12th, 2008
Chris Doelle Part of my four-day visit to my Houston home was the need to get some fresh food. One of my biggest gripes about trying to eat better is trying to fit my peculiarities. I am not a big fan of melon in general – most of them are just too sweet. Honeydew however, is just [...]
Back to the front lines
May 18th, 2004
Chris Doelle I decided to quit being lazy and go back to the exercise program I adopted when I discovered my high cholesterol in college. I was working as an intern at the Cardiac Rehab Center when I tested out at 279. I was a rather odd case in that I had very high cholesterol but I [...]
May 8th, 2004
Chris Doelle In my quest to return to optimum health, I went grocery shopping today. I bought carrots, lettuce, bananas, apples, and even corn. (Yeah – I can hardly believe it myself!) I also bought skinless chicken breasts and several varieties of fish. I am going to have to do a little online research on new recipes. [...]
