Granpomier Apple liquor
I have tried different kinds of apple liquor, but the one that Granpomier produces is one of my favourites.
The bad thing is the price, as it is also one of the most expensive ones.
This is a soft liquor, as it contains a 20% of alcohol. Because it is not …
Branston Baked Beans
I never heard about this brand of baked beans until one of my father’s friends brought it from abroad and gave it to us along with a few other items. Up until now, I’m not even sure which country it originated from, but I was quite eager to try …
Strawberry Crush
Wow, what timing! I really can’t believe it, in fact, but a few days ago I did a review for Welch’s Strawberry Soda, and I mentioned there that the only reason I’d purchased it was because I just couldn’t find Crush anymore. As ironic as it sounds, …
Brookside Dark Chocolate Acai with Blueberry

Marie Callender’s Shrimp Scampi
When it comes to shrimp, I will practically put them with anything. When it comes to seafood, for me, shrimp is up there with crabs. I’ve heard of shrimp scampi, but I had never had the opportunity to try it. I didn’t want to squander money at a restaurant …

Sicilian Lasagna Pizza
When I saw the new Pizza Hut Sicilian Lasagna Pizza on television, I told myself that it was definitely something I would have to try. After having it, however, I found myself extremely disappointed.
I’ll start out by saying the pizza wasn’t extremely horrible. It did taste OK. And, it …
Pillsbury Brownies
I love a great brownie. However, cooking isn’t always my thing and, even worse, I hate cleaning. As a result, nowadays, I’m always looking for good food that I can cook without really cooking and definitely without cleanup, or at least not much.
For years, my favorite was …
Keebler Reduced Fat Club Crackers
Keeblers Reduced Fat Club Crackers are absolutely the best crackers out there, in my opinion. Not only do they not acutally taste as if they are a reduced fat product, but they are filling and make great foundations for various dips, sauces, or salsas. They are also …
Encore Meijer Cola
My kids like to go grocery shopping with me. I think a big part of this is that occasionally I let them sneak something into the cart that we normally wouldn’t buy. I think another big part of it is that they like to grocery shop with me in …

Eggo Muffin Tops
We were at the store last night and decided to pick up some frozen breakfast foods. While in the frozen pancake/waffle aisle, I came across Eggo Muffin Tops and, because they weren’t that expensive, decided to give them a try.
After trying them this morning, I do think they were …
Ravioli bowl: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
The Ravioli bowl is a bit to bland for me mostly because I do not really like the tomato sauce that they use on the ravioli. This is one of those meals I usually have to add a little bit of my own seasoning to. That does annoy me …
Sun Chips Multigrain Chips Harvest Cheddar
These have to be my favorite chip ever, and have been for years. I love that Sun Chips has offered a multigrain chip, even long before the whole “green” trend started. They aren’t your typical chip, they have a much lower fat content that regular chips and when eating …
Tesco Value Roasted Salted Peanuts

Truvia Sweetener
I tried Truvia sweetener because several low carb websites were singing its praises, and because I became concerned about the safety of other artificial sweeteners. Truvia is a blend of erythritol (a sugar alcohol) and stevia. I had never liked stevia on its own, so I was wondering …

Joe Pucci & Sons Seafood Smoked Chubs
Just like with my review of Nova Smoked Salmon, I must warn that this product is not for everyone, and those unfamiliar with the concept of eating cold smoked fish will probably lack the courage to try it. Joe Pucci & Sons Seafood Smoked Chubs are sold in packs …
Kellogg’s Special K Cinnamon Pecan

Annie Chun’s Miso Soup
Annie Chun’s Miso Soup is something that is easy for me to fix and have for lunch, although admittedly, the soup does not look all that fabulous. Still, what really matters is how the soup tastes and not so much how it looks. While the soup looks rather bland, …
