Nescafe Irish Cream Flavored Coffee
I am a big fan of coffee…brewed, instant, espresso, cold hot, as long as it is coffee. Nescafe is a good brand of instant coffee. I love their cappuccino flavored coffee. I can say that there’s no much difference between their instant cappuccino and the one …
Life Water from SAFEWAY
I just bought a new type, for me, water drink called Life Water, from Safeway. I must say that the fruit tastes are much stronger than those in Propel Bottled health water, or in PowerAde. If you are one who prefers a stronger taste of the fruit in your …

Trails End popcorn is something my son’s boy scout troop sells every fall. It is how they make most of their money for summer camp and other scout functions during the year. It is very good popcorn. My favorite is the chocolate caramel crunch. The only thing I don’t …
Grandessa Signature Frozen Fruit Bars Strawberry
Grandessa Signature Frozen Fruit Bars Strawberry aren’t the best. I kind of expected more from the frozen fruit bars because the packaging stated that they were all natural and filled with real strawberries. When I took a bite into one of these frozen fruit bars though, what I got …
Del Monte Sliced Peaches
My husband and I like Del Monte canned fruit, we have tried almost every variety there is. Sliced peaches, however, turned out to be not as good as I expected. I love fresh peaches, and as I said I have enjoyed other Del Monte canned fruit, so I thought …

Grandi Chocolate banana

Marie Callender’s Beef Tips in Mushroom Sauce

I wouldn’t call myself a health guru, but I do like my fair share of yogurt. There was a time I was eating a variety of yogurts; I pretty much have cut a majority of them from my shopping list, and every since I realized I could get more …
Chunky Vegetable Beef Stew
Typically, if I’m looking for a quick lunch, I can’t go wrong with Chunky Soup. But, after trying their Vegetable Beef Stew, I have to say I don’t intend on buying that variety again.
Flavor wise, it was OK. It was a bit too salty for my tastes but it …

Tostino’s Party Pizzas
When I was in college, I practically lived on Tostino’s frozen party pizzas. They were just the right size for my microwave (yes, I ate them soggy) and were very affordable.

Mr. Pudding - Vanilla
I’ve only seen Mr. Pudding pudding products at ALDI, and I think I know why: they just aren’t that good. I wasn’t impressed with the vanilla pudding, and the same can be said for the chocolate pudding, too. Four cups come in a pack and each cup is three …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Banana Cream

Mrs. Freshley’s Doughnut Sticks

Great Value Pecan Rolls

I gave Kraft Recipe Makers New England Pot Roast a try one evening. What I like about this product is the convenience of it. It’s like the Kraft version of hamburger helper. Although unlike hamburger helper that comes with dry mixes and noodles this one comes with actual …
Great Value Apple Flavored Drink Mix
Walmart’s brand, Great Value, makes many generic alternatives in almost any category. Last week I purchased a powdered drink mix made by (or distributed by) Walmart, made to be similar to name brand “Crystal Light.” It is sugar free, sweetened with aspartame, and has five calories per serving.
