Stouffer’s Deluxe French Bread Pizza

Hamburger Helper Cheesy Beef Pasta

Real Leaf Green Tea Drink ( Lemon Flavor )
After being satisfied with Real Leaf’s Apple flavor, I became curious about their other varieties. This brand has only three flavors yet—-apple, lemon and lychee. They are limited compared to C2.

Ore-Ida Steak Fries
I decided to make sloppy joes for dinner last night and, since I needed a side dish to go with them, I ended up picking up a bag of Ore-Ida steak fries. I wasn’t impressed with this purchase.
