welcome to peep this out reviews with Ian K
stay frosty looks like Sonic's got a couple of new snackable side items on
the menu and since I'm a fan of both mac and cheese and chili we're going in on
both so let's check these out we've got the bacon mac and cheese bites and the
chili cheese bites from Sonic and they're looking pretty crispy here this
is actually a small order for each of them $1.99 a piece
starting off with the chili cheese bites here
let's lift one of these up essentially it's exactly what it says guys we've got
some chili we've got some cheese on the inside of a breaded coating and fried up
to a crispy golden brown not too bad there four pieces on a small piece order
here let's go into the next ones we've got the bacon mac and cheese bites and
this is how you can tell them apart naturally I like how they're like in
little cheese wedge forms here which is kind of cool mac and cheese and some
bacon bits on the inside of again crispy fried coating looking very very nice
counted these off it looks like I've got about five pieces in here so for
$1.99 not too bad let's give these a go and see if they're gonna
deliver the flavor though these are the all-new bacon mac and cheese bites and
the chili cheese bites from Sonic something snackable let's peep out this flavor
yeah the presentation is pretty cool on these and they're already starting off
on the right foot being fried crispy and golden so that's already a step in the
right direction so like always before we get into these right now if you guys are

two I think I'm gonna start off with the chili and the cheese ones just to give
that a go here mac and cheese is obviously my favorite hopefully that's
gonna be but let's start off with the chili cheese bites here and see how
amazing this is here we go the new snackable items over here at Sonic
mmm-mmm that's not bad the flavor of the chili is mild but it's definitely me
know that it's there and it's got a nice little cheese squirt in there as well
which is kind of nice and of course the crispy coating on the outside it's
pretty decent these are fried are pretty perfectly right now definitely a
palpable snack and for four of them for $1.99 fifty cents a piece
not too bad for what this is let me give me that close-up because if I take this
one down we're gonna have to start over again let's have a look well I've got
some cheese remnants on the inside but what I'm really getting here is lots of
nice chili spices and a very decent amount of filling even though it looks
like I've hollowed this one out slightly here but I have to admit the crispy
coating is very poppable very snackable the flavor on its own is not detracting
from the chili and the overall saltiness is not bad for what these are yeah so
far pretty good and they are pretty hearty considering the size of them too and
for $1.99 like I said for four of them that's not overly bad mmm
alright let's go for one more bite and one more close-up but I'm gonna grab
this one right over here because it's definitely the biggest of the group out
of the ones that are here but don't get me wrong there's a pretty decent amount
of filling in these here we go mmm hmm hmm
nice yeah I'm definitely liking these and that's for the overall coating let
me also say that this actually reminds me of panko breading it's got a lot of
crumbs to it it doesn't really feel like it's just plainly fried it's got
something extra and it really does add to the overall flavor of the chili along
with that cheese these are pretty tasty they really are alright so as tasty as
those are I've got some high hopes for these bacon mac and cheese bites right
now and already I can tell by the coating it's definitely gonna be
different compared to that one there so I like the difference already I love the
wedge shape let's give it a go it's the bacon mac and cheese bites here at Sonic
hmm okay there we go I wasn't really getting anything except breading
initially and then I started tasting a little bit of bacon wasn't getting the
cheese right away but then the cheese came up on the back end so this one
feels a little bit more subdued but I am tasting the type of noodle that it's got
in here and it's not super soft it's not super firm either let's go a little
further in we'll give you that close-up
well if you take a look in the back we've got a couple of bacon bits hanging
out and while the flavor itself is subtle in that department I have to
admit what I'm really getting mostly is the flavor of the fried outer coating
it's soft yet kind of firm at the same time and it is clashing slightly with
the macaroni and cheese that you have on the inside here speaking of the cheese
the cheese is also very subtle itself but you do actually chew into the
noodles pretty nicely you can taste them pretty well my only major gripe
with this though is I'm not getting a lot of cheesy flavor I'm not really
feeling like I'm having like a fried mac and cheese type of situation here with a
little bit of bacon it's really more of the bacon type flavor and the fried
outer coating with some little chewy noodles on the inside there that's
pretty much what I'm getting let's get going with it yeah I mean I actually had
just a little bit more cheese in that as well but it's just not super pronounced
that's the only thing let's go for another bite of this one here I'll give
you the other close-up to finish this one out and then we'll give these a
rating but so far these are literally just okay you know what I think this one
needs is maybe a thicker type of cheese maybe something a little bit sharper a
little bit more flavorful but it really needs a little bit more to sell me on
the idea that this is really macaroni and cheese on the inside I like the
bacon flavor don't get me wrong and the obvious coating that it's got is
decent but the overall flavor needs to be the star of the show and that mac and
cheese needs to be a little bit stronger in that department scratch that a lot
stronger all right so very simply rating wise for
the chili cheese bites a rock-solid 8 out of 10 all day long on this one an
easy recommendation I don't think you really need any dips to go with this
maybe ranch would go kind of nicely because of the outer coating but the
overall flavor delivers it's a very nice chili flavor and that cheese hit is a
wonderful situation as for the bacon mac and cheese bites maybe 5 out of 10 at
the most guys these are average at best they're decent for what they are
especially to try them at least once but again you really need just a little bit
more of a stronger type of cheese to really sell me on that mac and cheese
there again the bacon flavor is decent but that's not why I'm buying this I
really want to try it for the mac and cheese and I really
wish it was a little bit stronger just okay though alright so with that said these
were pretty fun to check out but what do you guys think
drop some comments down below are you excited to give one or both of these a
shot and if so which one are you most looking forward to trying first drop
