NIPS chocolate parfait candies
Nips Chocolate Parfait 30 calorie candies!
Finally, a candy that does not include 160,523,794 calories per piece! Okay, so maybe I exaggerated a little bit but honestly. Most regular candy will cost you an arm and a leg in the daily calorie department just by eating one piece. …

Dollar Tree Bakery Fresh Chocolate Chip Cookies
These chocolate chip cookies just aren’t as delicious or soft as Grandma’s Homestyle Big Cookie Chocolate Chip cookies. That being said, I did enjoy these cookies and they were well-worth a dollar for eight at the Dollar Tree. The chocolate chip cookies had a good flavor to them, both …

Sometimes I want chicken, but don’t want the hassle of cooking it. Cooking chicken can be a pain. It takes a long time and often more effort than I’d like to expend. If I want to make chicken cutlets, I have to cut them, mix the …
Healthy Choice Mediterranean Pasta
I haven’t had too much experience with Mediterranean food beyond pitas and hummus. When Wal-Mart had the All Natural entrees on sale, I wanted to try Healthy Choice’s interpretation of Mediterranean cuisine. From the description on the box, it sounded like a pasta salad with the vegetables, …
Milo Energy Drink
Ever since I was a kid, I always loved drinking Milo chocolate drink. I find its sweetness just right, unlike other brands that are too sweet or too bland. I prefer my Milo with milk, sometimes I enjoy it with sugar. I like to drink it hot early in …
Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream - Fudge Swirl
Growing up, Crystal had a product out called Marble Fudge. It was my favorite ice cream. I was probably a child addict to it. Then the grocer began to carry their own brand of product, and it phased out Crystal ice cream to nothingness. I wasn’t …
Quick Eaze Gravy Mix
Quick Eaze Gravy Mix is what my kids call the cheating way to make gravy. I guess they call it that because as the name implies it is easy to make gravy from their mix. All you do is add 1 cup of cold water to the season packet …

Aunt Jemima Sausage Egg and Cheese on Griddlecake
Aunt Jemima Sausage Egg and Cheese on Griddlecake is modeled specifically after the McDonald’s Sausage, Egg and Cheese McGriddle, and that is the main reason I decided to give these griddlecakes a try. I love the McDonald’s breakfast sandwich - perhaps a tad too much considering how unhealthy it …

Koop’s Mustard
I’m the kind of person who likes her hot dogs pure: hot dog, bun, and just a dash of traditional mustard. No fancy mustards, no dijons, and definitely nothing with honey. For years French’s mustard suited me just fine.
But I’m also a person who likes a bargain, so when …

Clancy’s Ripple Potato Chips
I have tried three different kinds of potato chips sold, to my knowledge, only at Aldi, and “Clancy’s Ripple Potato Chips” is my second favorite, with the first being “Clancy’s Sour Cream and Onion Potato Chips”. For just 99 cents a bag that is a little over ten ounces, …

McVities Jaffa Cakes
Good old McVities Jaffa Cakes were around when I was a girl and they do not seem to have changed at all. I looked them up on the internet out of interest and they have actually been around since 1927 which shows what a winning formula they are …
Stouffer’s White French Bread Pizza
Stouffer’s White French Bread Pizza is a pretty tasty lunchtime meal that I enjoy having every month or so. What makes this pizza a treat to eat is the ingredients. This pizza has on top of it oil, garlic and herbs, and many pizzas that are made in the …

New York Style - Baked Bagel Chips Garlic
New York Style - Baked Bagel Chips Garlic disappointed me immensely because I did not feel there was anywhere near sufficient garlic seasoning on these chips to justify calling them garlic. Sure, there is a garlic flavor to be tasted, but it is not remarkable in the slightest. It …

Applebee’s Southern Chicken Sliders
It may be the cheapest entrée on their menu but it’s better to spend your money on something else. What you get is a deep-fried morsel of chicken on a dinner roll and a pickle that spans 1/3 of the bun. This is not the dish to …
Tesco Finest Wexford Cheddar and Oregano Roll
I tried this roll, bought from Tesco’s instore bakery section, and it is absolutely beautiful. I could never give up carbs as I love bread too much and I like trying out different kinds. In the instore bakery at Tesco you can just buy rolls individually so …

Trader Joe’s Chicken Chili with Beans
