Sanjeev Kapoor’s Khazana Hot Mango Pickle
I love pickles. Many Indians would agree that no matter how tasty a dish is there is nothing like a bit of pickle to enhance the flavors and give the taste buds a tingling sensation. Not to mention it can rev up a bland and dull dish too.
Well, …
Jack n’ Jill Dewberry in Blueberries n’ Cream
I like this sandwich cookie from Jack n’ Jill called Dewberry. From my first taste of Blueberries n’ Cream, I have never grown tired of this itty-bitty snack. It is a cookie with this yummy blueberry and cream filling in the middle. Each packet contains only two cookies but …
Tyson Chicken Breast Patties
I like the chicken breast patties made by Tyson. I think the patties have a good chicken flavor. The patties are particularly good when I add some lettuce, mayonnaise and even some pickles. They are simple to prepare and I am given the option to heat up the patties …
Blue Bunny Big Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwich
I tasted Blue Bunny Big Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwich in an ice cream treat. It was a thick vanilla ice cream that is embedded between two rich chocolate wafers. It was a tasty combination altogether. It was such a novel ice cream that I had in recent times. This …
Bumble Bee Chunk Light Tuna
Dieting to be in my fittest self is definitely not an easy thing to do, especially when temptations abound.
So, as a first step to a fitter me, I chose to gradually change my eating habits and tried to be more selective of what I’m eating. In line with this, …
Diana Nut Krak’r
Now I am sure you guys are thinking, what is a Nut Krak’r? Simply put, it is peanut brittle, Trinidad style. There are quite a few brands of Nut Crackers available here in my country and Diana Nut Krak’r is one of those.
It is so funny to actually look …
Seneca Apple Chips Caramel
These apple chips are just the opposite of Green Tree Apple Chips Caramel, and not in a good way! The Green Tree Apple Chips Caramel were pretty bland in flavor, and these apple chips are ridiculously sweet to the point where they were upsetting my stomach. It’s not even …
Eskimo Pie Snack Size Ice Cream Bars
Eskimo Pies have been around forever, well, since 1921 anyway, and that’s longer than I’ve been on this Earth, so it’s like forever to me. Recently, they came out with a new snack size product.
Eskimo Pie Snack Size Ice Cream Bars is a box of twelve individual bars. …
Jell-o Gelatin - Grape
Jell-o Gelatin - Grape variety is pretty gosh darn scrumptious! They certainly did a remarkable job of cramming a whole lot of grape flavor into this gelatin treat! Each time I take a spoonful of this gelatin, there is an eruption of grape flavor that floods my mouth and …
Campbell’s Soup at Hand: Chicken with Mini Pasta
Campbell’s Soup at Hand is a somewhat new product from Campbell Soup. It’s a range of soups that come in microwaveable cans that are designed to be easy to drink from. You can place it in the microwave, and a minute and a half later, you have hot soup …
Must Be Mom’s Cheddar Ensaymadas
I’ve been seeing Must Be Mom’s booths in a lot of malls and bazaars selling their delicious looking baked goods, but I have never tasted any of their products until last night, as someone gave a box of it to my dad. My dad was given the box …
Banquet Beef Pot Pie
With a net weight of 7 ounces, Banquet Beef Pot Pies are a small, but tasty pot pie that is sold in a cardboard pie “tin”. Although the poultry (chicken and turkey) pot pies are my favorites, I also am quite fond of …
Ready Brek Breakfast Cereal
Ready Brek has been one of my favourite cereals since I was a child, especially in Winter. The TV advert would show people with glowing tummies keeping them warm because of the warm Ready Brek inside them and that always appealed to me. This is an oat …
Kohinoor Basmati Rice
I like the presence of rice most in my meal. In fact, I belong to an area which is the best in the production of rice. Nowadays, when I am shifted to the metro, there obviously I cannot hope to get rice from my native place.
The solution is in …
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 …
Mrs. Freshley’s Iced Honey Bun
I think Mrs. Freshley’s Iced Honey Bun is my favorite of the honey bun variety line, although admittedly, it is a pretty sweet variety due to the sweet iced glaze that covers the honey bun. The iced glaze is quite rich and tasty though! The honey bun itself is …
Mrs. Freshley’s Pound Cake
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Pound Cake to be an enjoyable treat to have, although there is really nothing all that special about this pound cake. It tastes like pound cake, but the taste is not any better really than other brands of pound cake that I have tried. It …
Kraft Mac & Cheese Spiral macaroni
I am a lover of instant food. I do not cook much, so instant foods are my loyal companion, especially at night.
One of the instant food I love is Kraft Mac and Cheese, spiral macaroni. I love them! I just have to add milk and butter. …
Entenmens Softees Powdered Sugar
Entenmens Softees are the perfect breakfast treat. The bag comes with twenty small doughnuts that can be enjoyed as a brekfast food , or later in the day as a delightful snack.
I really like this particular brand of doughnuts. They alway are soft when I open them, and stay …
Albertson’s Steak Sauce
When it comes to steak, I am the queen of it. I love steak and usually buy a large box of them when I do my monthly shopping. Even though I can easily enjoy a steak as is, I sometimes like to eat it with steak sauce. I have …
Tyson Chicken Breast
Tyson has some of the best chicken breasts on the market. They are always cut in to even pieces and each one is a fair portion. They even seem a little large to some but their chicken is low calorie and full of good vitamins. What makes them great …
Madison Street Champagne Dill Mustard
A friend of mine went shopping at a local Big Lots store and ran across Madison Street Champagne Dill Mustard. I had never heard of this brand, let alone dill mustard. But since I am a huge fan of dill, I was immediately intrigued. I was …
McDonald’s McFlurries
McDonald’s McFlurries are like heaven in a cup. The fluffly taste and crunchy tidbits are a must-have on a hot, scorching summer day, instantly cooling you down.
They come in many different flavors, in fact, sometimes they even have limited edition flavors. I remember my first McFlurry. …
Sainsbury’s Pitted Green Manzanilla Olives
Although I like junk food just like the next person, I can sit and eat olives when watching the television and enjoy them as though they are chocolates. Unlike chocolates though, I am getting some Vitamin C and those olives are counting as one of my five-a-day. …
Stouffer’s Chicken Alfredo Flatbread Melt
Stouffer’s Chicken Alfredo Flatbread Melt is yet another sandwich from Stouffer’s that I found to be full of flavor and enjoyable to have at lunch. What makes the flavor of this sandwich enjoyable? Well, this sandwich has grilled chicken slices that are surrounded by crushed broccoli and black pepper …
Trapa Sugar-free 80% chocolate
I’m a chocolate addict and sometimes I consume scary amounts of chocolate. So as any conscious human-being, I started looking for healthier chocolate options. Cocoa itself is actually one of the healthiest foods on Earth, it’s the sugar, milk and other additives that make the chocolate bar unhealthy. So if …
Trader Joe’s Organic Black Bean Rotini Pasta
Recently I’ve been getting really interested in health and consuming wholesome ingredients that really do something positive for my body, instead of the common ones that really don’t do anything too productive for me and my health. It’s been getting really popular lately to be fit, exercise and eat …
Fit & Active Chocolate Fat Free Pudding
Fit & Active Chocolate Fat Free Pudding retails for eighty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. In one package comes four three point five ounce cups of fat free chocolate pudding. The price for this fat free chocolate pudding is about the lowest out of all the stores that …
Our Family Chicken Soup
I went home for lunch today and needed something that was both easy to make and would hold me over until dinner (mostly because I forgot to buy some snacks for my desk at work).
I honestly couldn’t find too much since we haven’t done a lot of grocery shopping …
Stracciatella Lindor Truffles
I was given the pleasure to sample a stracciatella lindor truffle from the newest lindt chocolate shop in my outlet mall. I will say that I am big chocolate lover and thoroughly appreciate authentic Swiss chocolate. I have tried Lindit chocolates, a hand full of times, but this time …
Bel Air Mega Sub
Bel Air’s deli has a bunch of different sandwiches to choose from, but their granddaddy has to be their Mega Sub. This thing is positively huge, and it is definitely far more than one person can eat, or at least, that’s my take on it. For it …
XS Energy Drinks
XS Energy are just great. They are loaded with vitamins C and B and they have low sugar and carbs. I really like these drinks because they don’t give you a bad crash like mainstream energy drinks. I also really like all the flavors they come in. I really …
Swiss Miss French Vanilla cocoa
I love to have a hot chocolate after I have had my daily walk home from work, as I walk almost two dollars in an effort to save as much money as I possibly can for my heating expenses. Asides from that, it is great exercise. Well, anyhow, when I …
Nutella
Nutella is a really well known chocolate cream. However, this is not just any chocolate cream, as it has its very own characteristics. It is one of the most fluid ones that I have tried, and I really love to see the threads of chocolate after digging the knife …
Marigold Juice
My 2.5 year old son loves to drink juice. Earlier I used to give home-made fresh apple juice and orange juice. But it used to be boring and cumbersome process for me. My friend once suggested to try Marigold apple juice. My son is little fussy and I thought …
Amul cheese slice
I have 3 little, little children who are very naughty and very cute. I love my kids and try to take the maximum care about them. Actually my children don’t like the taste of the milk and very often they try to skip having the milk. …
Tasty Bite Good Korma Simmer Sauce
I am a fan of Tasty Bite, so I picked up a package of their new simmer sauces to try out. I was surprised to find it at my local WinCo Foods, but glad because it was very inexpensive there, just a little over a dollar.
This one, Tasty …
Honey Walnut Shrimp from Panda Express
I saw this new dish from Panda Express and decided to check it out. The combination of nuts and shrimp seemed a weird combination but Honey Walnut shrimp is not bad combination. My first feel was that out of shrimp dishes in Panda Express Honey Walnut shrimp is the …
Linda Mccartney Deep Country Pie 664g
My recent decision to become a vegetarian again has lead to me to try some convenience vegetarian foods. Sometimes you just don’t want to create a meal from scratch, sometimes there just isn’t time. Convenience foods can work out more expensive than creating a meal yourself but …
Grizz Red Wine
Yet another primo find at my local Grocery Outlet, Grizz Red is a Washington State wine delivered in a screwtop — since that’s the next big wave of wine is the screwtop. I found it for $2.99 and thought, well I can cook with it if it’s horrible. …
Al Mawakeb Nuts mixture
I tasted Al Mawakeb Nuts, mixture. It is really tasty. This is a good evening time snack. Impressive feature is that it is fresh and crispy. It contains all the ingredients like besan, pea nuts, green peas, chilly powder, curry leaves, spices etc,etc in good ratio that gives an …
Werther’s Original Dark Chocolate
I had a feeling that these would be nice chocolates from Werther’s as the TV advert has been making me dribble with anticipation and indeed they are good. The chocolate is the most melt in the mouth chocolate I have ever tasted. To describe them, they are …
Pepsi
I have always been a very comitted supporter of the Coca-cola company and all its products. From all it brought out in the past decades, Coke is largely known, obviously, and could with no doubt be the world’s number 1 softdrink. But eversince Pepsi made a turnaround (there was …
Ben & Jerry’s Single-Serve Ice Cream
My wife and daughter ran out to Walmart yesterday afternoon and came home with Ben & Jerry Single-Serve ice cream cups as a treat.
I personally don’t really like ice cream all that much (just in ice cream sandwiches and bars) but did think this was an interesting concept. It …
Marie Callender’s Breaded Chicken Parmigiana
My latest new meal to try was Marie Callender’s Breaded Chicken Parmigiana. I really trust the Marie Callender name to bring me a high quality meal. I may not like a particular variety due to my own taste buds and palette, but it’s rare for a product …
KABBALAH ENERGY DRINK SUGAR FREE
Move over Red Bull, there’s a newer, cheaper player in the energy drink market.
Actually, the differences between the two products is not really all that pronounced, but the slight variation between the two products is noticeable.
Kabbalah is stronger in taste. It does not have the ultra dull taste sugar …
Klondike Original Ice Cream
This brand of ice cream is one of those I like. Although I buy this regularly when I go shopping, this is not my best choice of ice cream. It is cheaper though compared to my favorite one so I still buy it and stock it in our fridge. …
Sainsbury’s Basics Chocolate Dessert Mix
This chocolate dessert from Sainsbury’s ‘Basics’ range is supposed to be like a cheap version of Angel Delight and it is only 9 pence per sachet. I frequently buy a cheap version of Angel Delight from Tesco’s ‘Value’ range but as they do not do a chocolate flavour …
