Tastes like: A full, tangy citrus tea with a rich Bergamot flavor (Bergamot is a Mediterranean citrus fruit, and Earl Grey derives its taste from the fruit’s oil).

Richardson’s Cuisine of New Mexico offers flavorful fares of the Southwest. The restaurant’s known for smothering just about everything with green chile, and while its celebrated New Mexican meatloaf is no longer on the menu, Richardson’s does offer such carnivorous culinary delights as chicken, beef, and shrimp skewers; pork enchiladas; and our new Richardson’s favorite, rack of lamb.

Jolt Cola, created in 1985, was the first soda to contain obscene amounts of sugar and caffeine, well before the first “energy drinks” started to hit store shelves. So it’s not unrealistic to expect Jolt’s new Endurance Shots to offer a high-octane rush superior to other energy shots, such as the “5-Hour Energy Shots” that started appearing at Walgreens about two and a half years ago.

This hearty dish consists of black and white pudding, two fried eggs cooked to order, rashers (potatoes), sausages, tomatoes, and brown bread. Black pudding (sometimes known as blood pudding) is a staple of a traditional breakfast in England, Scotland, and Ireland.

When you’re creating a feel-good coffee drink that prides itself on being Fair Trade Certified (that means it’s a partnership between the company and local farmers that gives farmers a larger share of profits), it doesn’t hurt to have the word “high” in your product name. The idea behind Adina for Life, Inc., the creators of the new Adina Natural Highs energy coffee drinks, is to make a (mostly) all-natural product that provides consumers with a pep-up, and maybe a warm, fuzzy feeling, too.

Landjager is a traditional, dried German sausage made in Southern Germany and Switzerland. Though the name literally means “country hunters,” there’s nothing gamey about the taste of landjager. It’s a popular snack food in Germany and Switzerland (like beef jerky for the U.S.), and also a popular meal for soldiers because it requires no refrigeration — landjager can be eaten cold, right off the deli rack, or taken home and cooked (to reduce fat, cut holes in the sausage casing before boiling). Landjager usually comes in pairs of fat, flat sausages — like Slim Jims on steroids, but with a heartier, meatier taste.

As an MBA candidate in Boston, Jason Kensey loved caffeine, but hated the taste of energy drinks and didn’t drink coffee, preferring caffeinated sodas with tons of sugar. His disappointment with caffeinated beverages led him to start Vroom Foods in 1996, a company that makes high-energy mints and chocolates. Vroom’s two primary products, chocolate chews and mints, promise 25% more caffeine than a leading energy drink, at about the same price. (A six-count tin of the chews costs $2.99 to $3.99; a six-pack of mints costs about $1.25 to $1.75).

Liver’s not a very popular dish, but liver lovers know a good grilled organ when they see, smell, and taste it. Once people get past their prejudices (whether it’s a childhood aversion to liver for dinner, or the oft off-putting idea of eating organ meat), they might find that liver, when cooked and flavored properly, is actually quite tasty.
