Junk Food Nation, if you’re reading this, then I’m alive! I haven’t lost my kidneys at the Craps table, and I’ve gotten more than five hours of sleep!  Well, that or I managed to figure out the “schedule a post” section of my WordPress app.  That’s probably it.

You know, one time when I went to Vegas, I prepared a WHOLE SLEW of posts to cover the entire time I was away (starting here and going on for the six days following).  I ended up having to eat like seven tubs of ice cream the night before I flew out.  That wasn’t pleasant.  So THIS time around, I said eff it.  I’ll throw up this mini-post, schedule to release on Friday morning, and then head back to the  Pai Gow tables.  Can someone point me to the closest ATM?  I swear it’s for an emergency.

Today’s junk food is a review I did over on So Good: The Return of the Rally Bar!  A preview…

So Good Blog readers!  It’s Eric, your friendly neighborhood Junk Food Guy again, coming to you this Monday afternoon. What’s there to say about today? The Kansas City Chiefs are the only unbeaten team in the NFL, The Sox are playing the Cards in the World Series, and Episode 15 of my podcast, the Nosh Show, is out today!

What is the Nosh Show?  It’s a podcast where a bunch of food reviewers like me talk about junk food and fast food!  The dudes on the show are some of the ones linked through this blog – The Impulsive Buy, Grub Grade, and On Second Scoop.

And on today’s Nosh Show, we discussed what I reviewed for you today: The Return of the Rally Bar!!

RALLY BAR! THE MONEY SHOT!

Remember the Rally Bar? I don’t  But according to Collecting Candy, it’s on old candy bar that used to be around a long time ago in the 70’s by Hersheys.  Collecting Candy has a great run down of the Rally Bar through the ages, but what I love the most is how the description of what it is has changed as time went on: “crowded with peanuts, caramel, fudge and Hershey’s chocolate.” “Milk chocolate covered nut roll.” “Peanut caramel bar.” And most recently, “made with peanuts, chocolate, and caramel.”  I don’t know about you, but these all seem like inconsistent descriptions. Get it together, Hershey’s.

There you go. So Good has the rest of the review.  Go read it and Rally around it’s return!  Or something like that.

Remember folks, I’m in Vegas this weekend, so if you’re around, tweet me @junkfoodguy.  And as always, I’ll be Tweeting, Facebooking, and Instagraming all weekend.  Follow my adventure! Let’s hang out virtually.
