FIZZIX: the future


During our weekly stroll through Kroger, Laylee, Brock, and I stumbled across a dollar fifty managers special on FIZZIX fizzing lowfat yougurt snack. Carbonated yogurt?!? We HAD to experience it ourselves. We chose the 'blueberry rage' flavor, (because of the reference to RATM) and we checked out. With EXTREME CURIOSITY, we sat in Brock's car in the parking lot and opened the tubes. Laylee and I were filled with utter enthusiasm for this exicitng new product, but Brock had some trepidations.


As the cool, fizzing substance hit my tongue, I began to literally laugh out loud. I could hardly believe what I was feeling as the yogurt bubbled like a witch's caldouron on my tastebuds. Laylee had a similar response of elation and disbelief. She seemed to enjoy the sensation, also stating that, the FIZZIX "is not so much fizzy as it is dangerous!" Filled with fear, Brock was the last to make the plunge into the universe of fizz. He was not a fan, comparing FIZZIX to "gooey bubble gum."


When all is sucked and done, I think that this product is TOTALLY RAADDIICAALL! It is one of the strangest things I have ever eaten. The flavors are interesting (nothing new), but the texutre is so revolutionary that.....I don't even have words to describe it. Laylee, a woman with a taste for living on the edge, appreciated the riskiness of this snack, even commenting that, "If you let your tongue hang out in the tube for long enough, it starts to sting!" While Brock's opinion was more negative, that's okay with me, because he gave me the other nine-tenths of his unsucked FIZZIX. With the weight of responsible journalism on my shoulders, I decided it was necessary for me to finish his tube, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Carbonated food is the future: soon there will be carbonated chicken and bubbling grapefruits.
