PurAqua Frut Flavored Water Variety Pack
I found this flavored water from PurAqua, and yes, it’s spelled “frut” as opposed to “fruit” on the packaging for some odd reason, to be more refreshing than flavorful. Naturally, it’s going to be refreshing because it’s water, and when it’s enjoyed good and cold, it’s a refreshing, thirst-quencher. …
Bigelow Red Raspberry Herb Tea
While I am not much of a tea drinker, I find Bigelow Red Raspberry Herb Tea irresistible. I had discovered it at Walmart quite some time ago, and it has been on my regular grocery list ever since. This tea comes in tea bags, there are 20 of them …
Best Taste Brand: Instant Ginger Honey Crystals

Cheese Mountain Pizza
I wanted something simple for dinner last night and didn’t want to drive out of my way to go to a grocery store. So, I ended up stopping off at a convenience store just up the street from work and buying a couple pizzas there from the brand Cheese …
Tang Orange Juice Drink
Drinking juice instead of softdrinks or sodas is a good and healthy option. I know that sometimes we are getting tired of drinking water. But since drinking enough fluids everyday is very important, a juice drink may be one of good choices. When it comes to powdered juice drinks, …

Paula’s Pepper Mango
Here in my country there are many brands and varieties of preserved fruit and they all taste differently. At the malls here many of the candy stores stock a variety of packaged preserved fruits. After having lunch and seeing a movie I felt like having a snack and stopping …
Mint Chocolate M&Ms (Christmas Edition)
I went grocery shopping the other day at S&R and saw amongst the extensive displays of chocolate the mint chocolate flavored M&Ms. As it was in a very festive green packaging with a female M&M Santa in the North pole, it caught my eye. Add the fact that …
Oscar Mayer Fully Cooked Bacon
I’ve purchased Oscar Mayer Fully Cooked Bacon a couple of times, the most recent being this summer. Buying a fully cooked bacon product is a convenient time saver. The bacon is ready to go, as is, cold, or you can warm it in a variety of ways, if …
Steak ‘N Shake Fish Sandwich
I love the Fish Filet sandwich at McDonald’s but my waistline suffered the consequences. It doesn’t have any fresh vegetables and has three artery-clogging ingredients —“ cheese, fried fish, and tartar sauce. I wanted to see if there was a better fish sandwich out there that was …
21st Amendment Brewery’s Hell or High Watermelon Wheat Beer
I found a small 6 pack of this beer at my grocery store, and since I like wheat beers and watermelon, I figured I would give it a shot. While this isn’t my favorite brew, it’s definitely a refreshing twist on one wheat beer.
The first thing that drew me …
Danon Activia Yogurt
Being a yogurt fan with poor digestion, when Danon introduced Activia for good digestive health I was eager to try it. After trying it in my favorite flavor of strawberry, I was hooked.
The yogurt texture is smooth and creamy. Bits of real strawberries are mixed throughout with fresh …
Ajinomoto Umami Seasoning
Since my childhood days, I remember that Ajinomoto Umami Seasoning has been used for our food preparations at home. At that time, I didn’t have any idea its significance in our food. Anyway, as years went on, different food seasonings have been introduced in the market. I actually prefer …
DELIGHT COFFEE CREAMER
When it comes to coffee, everyone seems to like it a different way. If this were not true, all those espresso places probably wouldn’t be doing so well! We like to have coffee that is home made, most of the time, and when we do, we enjoy adding International …
Blue Bunny BIG Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwich

Marie Callender’s Beef Tips in Mushroom Sauce

Uncle Ben’s Fast & Fancy Broccoli & Cheddar
Here is something that practically almost never happens, or actually never happens- the meal in real life looked actually better than the photo on the package. And it tasted great too. I still can’t believe that.
I tried it the other day when I was to too tired to too …
Nestle Rolo Ice-Cream
I keep finding new and wonderful flavours of ice-cream, and now that I may have found the best ever, I will likely gain much weight this summer. To make matters worse, the size of the container is about twice the size of Haagen-Dazs or Ben and Jerry’s ice-cream, for about …
Santitas White Corn Tortilla Chips

I had to rush out and buy this packet of Fantastic Delites today when I went grocery shopping. I first tried these deliecious rice snacks when I hired the movie Juno the other night from Blockbuster. They had a special promotion hire the movie and receive a free packet …
Chocolate Philadelphia Cream Cheese
Philadelphia the iconic cream cheese brand has recently launched a chocolate variety in conjunction with Cadbury, to the surprise of many (and horror in some instances!).

Grandi Chocolate banana
I went to Getro discount about 3 weeks ago and I bought a bunch of cheap Grandi products. Grandi is a cheap, but really cheap brand, that you can find only at Getro. Usually their stuff aren’t good but some of them are so I decided to check them …
Coco-Choco chrispy cream yogurt
I took this yogurt because I actually think it was stracciatella one, you know those white vanilla ones with chocolate chips, just when I got home I realised it was made of coconuts and not stracciatella, it was a small disappointment I must admit but as I like coconuts, …

Asda and their Smart Price Coffee granules

Tesco Arborio risotto rice (500g)
There is not a week that past by that I don’t cook rice risotto at home every evening but at that time I was just using a different brand which was a bit too expensive when I finally discovered at last this Tesco Arborio risotto rice for an affordable …
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 …

Harvest Snacks Chill’n Ranch Tortilla Chips
These tortilla chips proved to be a disappointment because they are supposed to be ranch flavored, but I tasted very little ranch on the tortilla chips. I could have almost mistaken the tortilla chips for being plain had the bag not had the word “ranch” on the front. I …
Knick Knacks Milk Coated Biscuits
I simply love these fish-shaped milk-coated biscuits called Knick Knacks. This is a very popular snack among kids here in the Philippines. And why not? Moms would always love to give their kids yummy snacks, but of course we want to make sure what they’re eating is healthy… But …
Caribou Coffee Pluot Green Signature Iced Tea
I thought this tea sounded interesting, since I so rarely encounter items made with pluot flavoring. Pluot is a hybrid fruit that is a combination of a plum and apricot. When I happened into my local Caribou Coffee, they were giving out free samples of this tea to customers, …
Burger King Original Chicken Sandwich
I frequent this Burger King on Racetrack Road in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, as it is close enough for me to walk, less than 1/2 mile. One of my favorite things to get there is the Original Chicken Sandwich.

Sonoma Lights Cigarettes
I am not a heavy smoker, but I do smoke about a pack a day, sometimes more, sometimes less. Marlboro has always been my brand, specifically Marlboro Mediums, and I like them a lot, but over the years, cigarette prices have skyrocketed and I just refuse to pay $4 …
Aero Instant Bubbly Hot Chocolate Drink
I bought this drink out of curiosity, really. The proclamation of bubbles melting on my tongue enticed me to give Nestle’s latest offering in the heated beverages department a whirl. When boiling water is added, it is true, an impressive crop of bubbles forms, much like when you froth …
Breyers Frozen Lemonade
I was recently given a small container of Breyers Soft frozen lemonade, and must say?I?m not impressed. I was actually given a selection of ice cream to choose from and I chose the frozen lemonade thinking it would be light and tasty. Overall I think it was just way …
Guiness beer
I have not tasted many brands of beer. However, one of the very few I have gotten to taste is a brand of beer called Guiness. I believe it is a beer which comes from either the UK or Ireland too. Nevertheless, I know that I have seen …

Knorr’s instant chicken delight soup mix
I love to eat chicken soup, but the process of making chicken soup is lengthy, so I bought this instant soup from “Knorr”. This soup is really easy to make, even a child can make this. I took a pan, and pour water in it, and I pour all …
Jordan’s Skinny Girl Pumpkin Spice Syrup

Milk Duds are one of my all time favorite candy, so I just had to write a review about them. Milk Duds are sold at most stores, and you can get them at movie theaters. They make a great snack to eat while watching a movie, or playing video …
Baileys Irish Cream Crème Caramel
I recently found my new favourite liqueur, and I have been making some amazing drinks with it. I don’t buy creamy liqueurs often, usually a couple of times a year during the winter; I don’t need the extra calories, and for me they are more like a dessert than …
Berni Pesto Al Basilico (Pesto Sauce)
I am a big fan of pesto sauce, that delicious Italian staple made with basil, garlic and butter. My husband makes the best homemade pesto ever, but it does take some time to prepare. At my favourite Italian market, I found a small jar of imported prepared pesto from …
Cambell’s Chunky Prime Rib & Vegetable Soup
As soon as I heated one of these and took the first few bites, I knew that I had to warn other people. Whatever you do, do not buy this product! The entire can had only 3 chunks of meat in it and the bulk of the vegetables were …
