I like a good coffee. But, in my mind, cappuccino isn’t really “coffee” proper - to me, it’s more of a “dessert”, or more accurately, a comfort drink. The problem is, sometimes I feel I really need more than one such comfort drink - and then caffeine starts piling up.
Luckily …

My wife and I decided to make a spaghetti dinner when I got home from work last night (neither of us was really hungry for spaghetti, but we didn’t have a whole lot of food to choose from at home and can’t afford to go grocery shopping until I …

They are chocolaty, gooey, and delicious! They are the best things I have ever tasted! They are Weight Watchers chocolate muffins! Who would of thought that something that taste so good would be from Weight Watchers? I started a diet a few weeks ago. …

My frequent trips to coffee shops have made me a sucker for vanilla soy lattes. Buying themfrom the coffee shop everyday had gotten quite expensive so not too long ago I invested in a espresso machine for my house.
In order to make a vanilla latte I had to purchase …

My wife did some grocery shopping yesterday and, since I told her to pick up some lunch meat while she was at the store, she also picked up a couple loaves of bread.
Normally, we have a few brands we choose from when shopping for bread. But, the store apparently …

My wife had to run to the store late yesterday afternoon. And, since I had the baby and she wasn’t allowing me to cook, I had her pick up some frozen pizzas for dinner.
She came home with PizzAmore pizzas from Freschetta; including their 10-topping pizza.
While there were some things …

The hamburger from McDonalds is one of my favorite snacks when I’m out and I get hungry. For example, if I’m walking to the grocery store I often stop in and get two hamburgers to go. Then I can eat them on the way to the store and they …

When on the hunt in Sainsburys, one of my favorite snacks is their chilli flavoured potato snack. It’s a large packet of crisps and you will often find them near the curry and Mexican mixes so don’t be fooled into thinking that just because they are crisps they will …

I was eager to drink this as all the hype has drawn attention to Pepsi Max because it had zero sugar! I eagerly bought a 500 ml bottle at our school canteen and gulped down a huge amount of soda, at first it really was great-tasting, it just seemed …

Maggie tomato sauce is very different in its taste. There many kind of flavours in Maggie tomato sauces, such as hot red chilly, one with mint leaves, the regular sauce, etc. I have tasted all of them and I like all the tastes because they are just …

The best pizza, frozen or otherwise I’ve tasted in a very long time.
Goodfella’s has a long reputation of making excellent frozen pizzas and have never been afraid of creating pizzas with interesting topping combinations and this particular pizza is definitely one of their best successes.
It is a meat filled …

Wendy’s - Triple Stack is not quite as flavorful as the Double Stack. The reason? Although a third hamburger patty is added to the sandwich, at the same time, toppings are removed. Both the pickles and onions get the boot on the this sandwich and that is definitely disappointing …

The first time I heard of the product CHipster’s potato chips was a little after I gratuated from high school or maybe I was about to graduate. I heard it advertising on the radio a lot and judged by the accents of people used to advertise them that the …

I just finished eating a bowl of Mushroom Burger’s Pancit Canton. This is what a local noodles meal is called here in the country. Well most Chinese do love pancit canton on birthdays and celebrations. Mushroom Burger’s is more of a vegetarian type of noodles with loads of different …

Everyone knows what a Mentos is. It is a mint candy that everyone loves to chew on. It is a chewy candy, often times chewed on by kids, and even adults. Kids love to chew on flavored ones and adults prefer the original mint taste. These dragees are the …

A friend of mine came for a visit from the USA and she brought with her a very fancy looking package of chocolate chip cookies. On the package it said they are premium gourmet cookies. I had never seen this brand of cookies before so I hurriedly opened the …

I like macaroni salad once in a while, but I don’t like making it (I would think I’m not alone in this??). Thankfully, Walmart Deli carries a very decent version of this salad, always fresh and not expensive. I recently bought a large, 4 lb plastic container of it, …

Count Chocula energy drink is an energy drink based on the hugely popular Count Chocula cereal. It is a chocolate energy drink and is quite similar in taste to the Mars energy drinks, or a regular chocolate milk shake. I decided to try one the other day, as the …

Jell-o Gelatin - Strawberry Daquiri is part of a failed line - in my opinion - of gelatin desserts that try to take a popular adult beverage and transform that beverage into a gelatin treat that retains the flavor of the drink while making it acceptable for all ages. …

The Spanish have a thriving wine industry which produces some of the better-known brands in the world. The Cava brand could be argued to be the —˜poor man’s champagne’ by some, but it must be said that many of the Spanish Cavas are actually nicer than the Champagne they …

Dog On It is the name of a beverage that I found in our local United Grocery Outlet the last time I went shopping for groceries. I have to admit that the name makes me think of something that appeals more to kids rather than adults. However it is …

This is my all time favorite frozen pizza. When you eat it, it doesn’t even taste like a frozen pizza. I think it’s the best frozen pizza there is. They come in a different variety. I know they have supreme, and just pepperoni. I also know that they come …

We had a picnic in a park last summer. We all agreed to bring a little something for potluck and a friend of mine brought this lemony steamed whiting fish. It was a hit in the picnic table. My husband and I loved it. We asked her how she made …

A few days ago, I decided to make chili. One of the ingredients I needed was kidney beans so I used a couple cans from the brand Happy Harvest.
I have purchased other items from this brand in the past and, with few exceptions, I have been very happy with …

Totino’s Party pizzas are amazing! I prefer the pepperoni, but sausage and combination are awesome as well. These are usually priced at about 2 dollars, which I believe is a bargain. It only takes 28 minutes to cook, which is a plus when …

I grew up going to Dairy Queen. It used to be everywhere, and it was just awesome food back in the day. One of my favorite treats as a child was their Dilly Bars. They were a little bigger back then and packaged differently than they …

When I transitioned from my late teens to my 20s, I started to watch what I ate. Sadly, this meant no more deep-fried foods, substituting lean meats for beef, upping my vegetable intake about three times, and watching the amount of sugar I ate. This is sadly …

I don’t often eat frozen meals or dinners. They always taste fake and are far from fulfilling. My husband suggested some frozen bell peppers from Stouffers. I didn’t really think it was going to be good, but figured giving it a try wouldn’t hurt. I baked the peppers …

Few days before New Years Eve of 2008, my younger sister wants to have something alcoholic drink for the event. Being an occasional drinker I’m not familiar with alcoholic drinks so I let her choose and she bought Vodka Mudshake Pina Colada. My sister says it is perfect for …

My eye caught this pasta product because I’m always interested in trying new pasta shapes. The description sounded very appealing —“ pasta and crimini mushrooms with marsala wine sauce and fontina cheese. To add to the appeal, the calorie count is under 300 calories and it is …

My wife picked up some Roma pizzas yesterday because they were on sale; 6 for $10. I have to say, they weren’t worth the money.
I have had Roma pizzas in the past and remember liking them. But, after trying them again last night, I can’t remember why I did.
For …

Geeta’s premium mango chutney is authentic Indian chutney made from fresh mangoes and is sweet-smelling which I’ve bought from Tesco supermarket. I actually bought it this month to try it as a dip for the papadum that I’ve made at home. One thing I could personally say …

Chick-fil-A Biscuit is just that: a biscuit. Nothing comes on it and nothing comes with it. I order one on occasion to go with some other breakfast item at the fast food restaurant because I personally think that Chick-fil-A has just about the best biscuits out of any of …

Cows are a creamy butter toffee candy, filled with chocolate. You can get them at Costco, in big bags. Upon opening, they look similar to a soft Werthers candy, but once you put them in your mouth, you can taste the chocolate.
These candies are addictive! Once …

Count Chocula is by far my favorite breakfast cereal… Make that lunch or dinner cereal too! Heck make it my midnight snack cereal while you’re at it! Count Chocula is mainly marketed toward children, but as an adult, I still love and crave the chocolaty tastes of Count …

As I am over 40 years of age I of course think of Starburst fruit chews as Opal Fruits, their original name. Whenever there is a name change of my favourite sweets or confectionary I always refuse to call it by its new name until I have to …

I love this tea. It reminds me of childhood, when I would visit grandma; she had some mint in her garden, we would pick some mint leaves and add them to our tea… Ah, the aroma, and the fresh minty taste! I wonder why not so many tea brands …
