I can't resist -- these gorillas really have balls. About 13 of them. And they also have flavor: chocolate chip or oatmeal raisin with white chocolate. 600 lb. Gorillas are like cookie-dough meatballs, packed frozen in a round, colorful ice-cream container. They scoop out easily: place them on a cookie sheet, bake in an oven, and your guests will probably think you made cookies from scratch. Look for the purple, green, and black container featuring a heavy-but-happy gorilla munching one of his favorite deserts. Available at Star Market, Stop & Shop, and other markets in the frozen-food section. An 18-ounce container costs about $4.99.
