John’s Incredible Pizza Co.
I recently visited John’s Incredible Pizza Co. in San Diego, CA. I had never heard of such a place and I knew it had just opened its doors to San Diego county residents a couple of months ago.
First off, this is an all-you-can-eat buffet style restaurant. …
Mayfield Iced Tea
I’m the type of iced tea lover who’s extremely picky about the teas I drink. When in restaurants, I hate when the waitress refills my iced-tea glass without asking-completely disturbing my perfect tea/sugar ratio. With that being said, I discovered Mayfield’s Iced Tea in the gallon …
Cafe Nova Cafe latte
I first tasted Cafe Nova during the recent Singapore Asia Pacific food festival. I liked it upon tasting and we decided to get one pack. It has a large number of sachets and there are varities with and without sugar. This coffee uses freeze dried Arabica …
Frey’s Classique Mini Chocolates
After travelling abroad, I was looking for chocolates in the Duty Free shop and wanted to see if I could get good Swiss chocolates to bring home. As I was browsing through the chocolate candies, I saw this pack of Switzerland Frey’s Classique Mini Chocolates. It comes in three …
Oasis’s 100% Blueberry and Concord Grape Juice
This product is as healthy as it can get. A lot of juice out there is from concentrate (which isn�t as good as 100% pure ones) or the ones mixed from powder or the other unnatural ones or contain too much sugar. Anyway this contains 100% vitamin C! Because …
Ore Ida Golden Fries
One of my food vices is potatoes. I love them, and I especially adore French fries. I’m pretty finicky about my fries, though. I want them to be soft and hot and not oily. Some fast food restaurants really know how to make a good …
Little Debbie Easter Puffs
I am not all that crazy about Little Debbie Easter Puffs, although I would be if they would just remove one thing from the puffs. These puffs have chocolate on the inside and marshmallow on the outside and there is also a white icing coated beneath the marshmallow. There …
Ice Creams of Scoopery
Scoopery is a small booth which sells only ice creams and is located in the upper ground floor of SM City Fairview. They also have other branches in other places, but usually in malls. The booth itself is just small and simple, and with only one …
Four Square Cigarettes
I am a smoker from last 14 years. Hold on my age is only 30 but like I have been smoking from childhood. I had every possible brand of cigarette from different companies.
Right now I’m smoking Four Square. It’s a cigarette made in India with good tobacco …
McCain Smiles
I do like Potato products and have these now and again. I could probably eat a whole bag of these as they are so yummy but they are quite filling as well.
These are frozen so you find them in the Freezer section. They come in a 454g bag …
Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Cinnamon Roll
Although I found Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Cinnamon Roll to be relatively enjoyable, I see no real reason to purchase these when I can get Pillsbury cinnamon rolls at a better value price and those come out of the oven tasting more delicious than these do coming out of the …
Mike and Ike Berry Blast
Mike and Ike are among my favorite candies. I love those great big boxes you can buy for a buck at the grocery store with those little jelloey candies. I don’t know exactly what you would call them besides just good old fashioned Mike and Ikes, but …
Talenti Gelato Sicilian Pistachio
Talenti is my favorite brand of gelato or ice cream, and despite the high price, I typically seek it out at the grocery store above all other ice creams. The Sicilian Pistachio flavor is my favorite for any time of the year because its sweet and nutty with a …
Mrs. Freshley’s Cherry Pie
Like the berry pie, Mrs. Freshley’s Cherry Pie is quite delicious on the inside but pretty poor when it comes to the bland and dry crust. The cherry filling is really very satisfying and rich, plus it has an authentic taste to it, which is something that is certainly …
Old Orchard Healthy Balance Juices
If you live with a diabetic like I do you know that sugar and carbs are difficult to stay away from. These juices are sweetened with Splenda therefore they contain 75% less sugar and what sugars they do have is from the fruit itself. These juices also all under …
DEL MONTE LITE MIXED FRUITS
Sometimes, it just seems difficult to keep fresh fruit around the house for all those lunches that the children and the adults need during the day. Fruit is so important. Fruit is what a person who is watching their diet,should eat, when the sugar ‘wants’ hit! Fruit will take …
Michelina’s Spaghetti Marinara
Unfortunately, there’s no difference in taste when it comes to the spaghetti sauce used for Michelina’s Spaghetti Marinara and Michelina’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce. In the cases of both frozen pasta meals, the spaghetti sauce is lacking in flavor. It just doesn’t stand out in any meaningful or significant …
Reggano Pasta Sauce
I recently had a chance to try this product when we used it as part of dinner last night.
Normally, I am not a big fan of canned or jarred pasta sauces; mostly because the majority of them lack anything in terms of flavor. And, to be perfectly honest, I …
Little Love Drops Wine
I am not a big drinker, in fact I do not like beer or wine coolers. As last night was new years eve, my boyfriend and I decided to drink a little for the festive occasion. I went to Westfield New York in the spring of 2008 and visited …
Mc Lures Creamed Clover Honey
My all time favorite honey product to use in teas, on breads and for beauty and medicinal purposes is Mc Lures Creamed Clover Honey. I like this creamed honey because it is thick creamy and rich with sweet flavor and packed full of antioxidants and other potent nutrients that …
O’Charley’s Classic Club Sandwich
When I go the O’Charley’s, I normally gravitate towards getting one of their burgers, which is a good buy for about $6 to $8. However, on one particular visit, I decided to try something less-greasy. Under their sandwich menu, there is only item that seem somewhat like …
Hereford Luncheon Meat 12 oz.
Hereford luncheon meat is another great emergency food. I take it with me when I don’t have time to cook my lunch for work. It’s also great for camping.
It’s a little bit pricier than its competition, Holiday luncheon meat, but Hereford definitely has a taste advantage. …
Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Baked Snack - Cheddar Flavor
I recently picked up the Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Baked Snack Crackers in Cheddar Flavor. I bought the small single serving size pack of 43g (1.5oz) for S$1.00. They do also come in bigger packets but I went for the smaller pack as I wanted to try it …
Ferrero Rondnoir
Two days ago it was my mother’s birthday and she got Ferrero Rondnoir as a present from her friend. As it is new product of Ferrero I never tried it before and I couldn’t wait that my mother open that box, especially because it is without hazelnuts and I …
Pringles Potato Chips
Pringles is one of my fave vices. Although I try to avoid junk foods, I must admit I do eat it from time to time. Among the different potato chips both locally made and imported, it’s my favorite. For me, the thickness of Pringles potato chips is just …
Rold Gold Pretzels: Dark Dipped Bavarian Twists
I was given a bag of Rold Gold Pretzels: Dark Dipped Bavarian twist to try from a friend who is in love with pretzels. Being that I am a person who loves trying new things, I couldn’t turn down her offer. I actually have never previously had crunchy pretzels …
Topraman noodles
My kids are the fans and they always insist me to prepare the noodles for them. I have tried many brands of noodles and they have liked almost all of them. But now I am going to write about the topraman noodles, which I tried. Actually …
Kashi Heart to Heart Golden Brown Maple Oatmeal
My boyfriend and I love oatmeal so we have been trying the Kashi Heart to Heart Golden Brown Maple Oatmeal for the past few months and we are really enjoying it. Some of the reason we really like this particular brand of oatmeal is because it contains nourishing ingredients …
Bigelow Red Raspberry Herb Tea
Bigelow Red Raspberry Herb Tea is one of my favorite kinds of tea to drink. It comes nicely packaged, in a very attractive box that contains 20 tea bags, each one individually sealed in a foil packet. The packets have a tear line and are easy to open. Inside, …
Bovril Concentrated Bouillon
I admit that this product is one of my secret weapons in my recipe arsenal.
I use this product (by Knorr, Unilever) in a lot of my cooking.
It’s excellent as a base for soups and it’s the main ingredient of my gravy.
I buy both the liquid and the powdered versions …
Quorn 2 Crispy Fillets (vegetarian roast chicken)
If I fancy a (vegetarian) meat and vegetables type dinner I often look to the Quorn range of meat-substitute dishes and I usually like them. The last two nights I have had one of these crispy fillets - which are like fillets of roast chicken —“ and they …
Swanson Beef Dinner
I picked up this Swanson Beef Dinner as a two for one deal on Swanson products. This 325gram boxed frozen dinner looked absolutely delicious; rich pieces of roast beef in gravy, mashed potatoes, green beans and a bonus apple-cranberry desert. As always Swanson gives you the option of either …
Orange Crush Soda
I just love and adore Orange Crush Soda to no end. I grew up drinking it, and it remains a favorite. Unfortunately, the product has done this ‘come and go’ type of thing. It shows up at my grocery store, and then it disappears to the …
Great Value Pancake & Waffle Syrup
Great Value Pancake & Waffle Syrup is just as good as the brand name version, and it is considerably cheaper. The 24 fl. oz. plastic bottle I buy costs only $1.44. The dark brown syrup is made with 5% real maple syrup, according to the bottle. I use it …
Blue Bunny Classic Sundae Ice Cream Cones
Blue Bunny Classic Sundae Ice Cream Cones are definitely a disappointment in my book. The reason that I was disappointed with these cones is really very simple: the flavor is not all that delicious or rich. Everything about this cone, with the exception of the chopped peanuts, leave a …
Cafe W Honey Barbecue Wings
My wife decided she wanted to make spaghetti last night and, because we didn’t have half the ingredients we needed, I found myself running up to Walgreens shortly after getting home from work.
While there, I thought an appetizer would be a smart buy (I was starving at the time) …
Del Monte Sweet Blend Ketchup
I am a ketchup addict. I am really particular with the ketchup that I buy, so I always trust my favorite brand, Del Monte. I bought a bottle of Del Monte Sweet Blend Ketchup. I love to put ketchup on anything and my husband does too
The Del Monte Sweet …
Equality Veggie Pizza (frozen product)
I like to stuff my freezer with those small frozen pizzas. It is definitely not the among the best tasting frozen products. As a matter, it does have that processed cheese plastic-y taste. But at the same time, there are products out there that are a lot worse.
There are …
Lyons Golden Syrup
Lyons Golden Syrup has long been used and loved in the homes and bakeries of Europe to add a rich, sweet flavor to their confections and recipes.
It has the thick consistancy of honey but has a rich, buttery sweetness that is distictly its own.
I have used this product in …
Ceres Cranberry and Kiwi Pure Fruit Juice Blend
I bought this juice drink at Spencers grocery in Inorbit and it says 100% pure fruit juice blend so I selected it for a try. I did have a brand for fruit juice but since I wanted to try and taste other brands, I got curious on Ceres.
Ceres offers …
Tabasco Brand Hot Sauce
If there is something else that I cannot live without, it is hot sauce. I live for it. I love hot sauce. And I normally mix my ketchup with hot sauce. That is why I am reviewing my favourite hot sauce which is Tabasco Brand.
Tabasco sauce is apparently …
Big Butt Doppelbock by Leinenkugel
Yes, it is true I like Big Butt’s. Well, at least I like Leinenkugel’s Big Butt. This is a great example of a doppelbock style beer made by the Wisconsin microbrewery. As we move from the heavy winter beers towards the lighter beers of spring, doppelbock style beers will …
Nescafe Azera Barista Style Instant Coffee Range
I first decided to try the Azera coffee range when I became addicted to proper ground coffee but didn’t like the inconvenience of making it. I was never satisfied with the regular granules and found them harsh and bitter if I ever wanted to try them without milk.
Now this …
Great Value Fudge Striped Shortbread Cookies
Being a fan of milk with cookies, I have recently bought several boxes of cookies, some of them new to me. One of them (now empty) was called Great Value Fudge Striped Shortbread Cookies. The cookies are sold in a clear plastic box that is placed inside plastic wrapping. …
Our Family Baked Beans
We made Hamburgers the other night and my wife wanted me to pick up a can of baked beans on my way home to go with them.
I ended up at one of our local grocery stores; one of the more expensive ones when it comes to stuff like that. …
House of Tea Tie Guan Yin Chinese tea leaves
I like the small packages of Tie Guan Yin Tea leaves packed by House of Tea. Each small package of House of Tea’s Tie Guan Yin Chinese Tea leaves is just nice for my teapot. When I add the boiling hot water into the teapot, the Tie …
Kroger Raisin Bran
Kroger Raisin Bran contains just as many raisins and just as many crunchy flakes as the name brand Kellogg’s Raisin Bran, plus, the Kroger store brand variety is sold for a lower price. That is why I purchase the Kroger store brand over the name brand. It is just …
Dreyer’s slow churned rich and creamy French vanilla ice cream
Dreyer’s slow churned rich and creamy French vanilla ice cream is one of my usual favorite choices when buying ice cream. The French Vanilla taste is authentic and very rich from Dreyer’s. Even though it is written slow churned, there is no much difference from usual Dreyer’s ice cream. …
Itamaraty Selection Chocolate Filled Wafers
I love my snacks and of course sweet snacks. Sweet snacks don’t necessarily mean candy bars or chocolates, but it can actually mean one of my other favourite snacks to have…wafers. I have tried and tasted so many different wafers before and another one that has been added to …
