The heating instructions on the box for these tacos are fairly straightforward: take a taco out of the bag, put it on a microwave-safe plate, microwave it on HIGH for 45 - 60 seconds, and let it stand for 1 minute. The tacos are a little small, so you might want to microwave more than one at a time. The more tacos you microwave on a plate, the longer you'll need to microwave them.

The tortilla on these street tacos from Costco was a soft corn tortilla, and the shredded pork on the inside was a little too salty for me. It was also pretty greasy. When I bit into it, it just dripped grease.

Overall, it was OK, but it wasn't that great. It was like your typical, inexpensive street taco.

The Frozen Trader Joe's Mini Chicken Samosas were really nice and crunchy and had a mild tikka masala taste. They weren't soft and mushy on the outside like many other frozen samosas. They were probably the best frozen chicken samosas I have had... delicious!

REVIEW – Crazy Cuizine Korean Inspired BBQ Recipe Chicken from Costco (Frozen)

When we were at Costco, we saw the frozen Korean (inspired) BBQ (recipe) chicken and decided to try some. The box came with 2 bags of the chicken and 2 bags of the BBQ sauce.

This is how trying the chicken played out:

First bite: "This doesn't taste Korean, tastes more like generic American Asian. The chicken texture also feels kind of like... shrimp?"

Next couple of bites: "This isn't very spicy, but it tastes all right."

Final bites: "It's a little spicier with more of the sauce... but it is way too sweet... I'm not going to get this again."

So it basically just tastes like other microwavable Asian foods that are too sweet, and the taste gets tiring after a few bite.. and I won't be buying these again.
