Pretzel: The cheese dip is yummy. In fact, I always eat all the cheese sauce with only 2 pretzels. So, I'm left with he pretzels, which seems okay, since pretzels are yummy (at least Rold Gold ones are). But THESE ARE NOT. They are really dry and flavorless, which is probably why they gave the cheese dip with it. Still, that's not excuse! Pretzels are nothing but flour and salt, how can they mess up?!
Graham Cracker and Apple Dip: Okay, I was excited to see these at Walmart. but i was also skeptical. I feel skeptical about everything strange I see at Walmart. The package said this was new, but I had the strange feeling that they were REALLY old and just on sale because no one wants them. But I bought them anyways.
I think they are old, because the plastic cover over the apple dip was puffed up, like there were bacteria producing gases inside. For the taste, the graham crackers were average. they tasted like normal, nothing special graham crackers. The apple dip was kinda rancid. I donno how it's supposed to taste, but there was definitely a foul sour note. I was like really sweet and somewhat syrupy apple sauce. Overall, it was just too sweet for me. Good thing it's only a small amount.
