Orv’s Special Deluxe Pizza

I normally don’t …

Pizza Hut Cheesy Bites
Pizza Hut’s Cheesy Bites are a great new pizza offered only in some areas. This menu item is a cross between a pizza and a cheese filled bread stick. Though they come in many different flavors, we tried the pepperoni and cheese one. The middle of the Cheesy Bites …
Sunkist orange juice drink
This is a wonderful healthy juice drink packed with 200% of Vitamin C and I must say this is for real. I learned about this juice drink while I was looking for an orange juice to drink because I had a really and bad cold. What caught my …
Blue Bunny Champ! Variety Ice Cream Cones
Blue Bunny Champ! Variety Ice Cream Cones are not the champs of anything, unfortunately. All three varieties disappointed me because the flavors just were not as rich as I had been hoping. The vanilla variety is not nearly as enjoyable as the all-natural premium ice cream, and that is …
Cinnamon Flavored Twizzlers
I am a fan of Twizzler’s, so before I say this I just want it to be known that I haven nothing against their company and have enjoyed their delicious flavor when my sweet tooth is calling for me to enjoy something tasty and sweet. But the cinnamon flavored …
Dempster’s Flax Bread
This is the first and last time I will buy Dempsters Flax Bread. The packaging boasts that this bread is 100 percent whole grain;a source of omega-3 and also has the health check from the Heart and Stroke Foundation. None of those qualities can redeem this bread.
I had …
Peanut butter kit kat
The peanut butter kit-kat is the latest in their ‘chunky’ range. Having tried all the other flavours I felt it was my duty to sample this new one.

Cooper’s Cheeseburger
Only at ALDI Food Market stores have I come across a single, frozen cheeseburger from a company named Cooper’s. The frozen cheeseburger is flame broiled, and that’s what caught my attention as I really like hamburgers that are flame-broiled. Plus, the cheeseburger came on a sesame seed bun, and …
Mrs. Freshley’s Valentine’s Day: Chocolate Mini Donuts
Here is yet another disappointing mini-chocolate donut treat. Mrs. Freshley’s Valentine’s Day: Chocolate Mini Donuts maintains the unfortunate trend that there is no such thing as a tasty miniature chocolate donut.

Asian Noodle Stir Fry: Amy’s Frozen Dinner

Keebler Special K Strawberry Snack Bars
I did not enjoy these Special K Snack Bars very much. According to the package, these bars are supposed to contain flavorful fruit pieces. The ones I purchased were supposed to contain strawberries. The reason I used the word “supposed” twice is because the strawberry pieces were very small …
Knorr Fiesta Sides Mexican Rice
This is a real rich side dish! Knorr really spiced up plain old rice with a bunch of south of the border extras that helps make this rice side a flavorful one. Mixed in with the rice and orzo, and this I really love, is a mixture of two …

The Filet-O-Fish is a fish burger that’s been sold in McDonalds since 1962. It’s a great alternative for people like myself who don’t eat meat, and it’s been one of my favourite fast-food snacks for as long as I can remember.
The bun is nice and soft, and is …

Snickers Candy Bar
Snickers Candy Bars are just awesome. They’ve been a favorite in my home for decades. They’re a yummy combination of roasted peanuts, nougats, milk chocolate, and caramel. Again, with both milk chocolate and peanuts in the equation, that equals good stuff.
A few years back there was …

DIET TURBO TEA
