Little Debbie Stars & Stripes Snack Cakes Chocolate
I find these Little Debbie Stars & Stripes Snack Cakes Chocolate variety to be relatively enjoyable, especially after being put in the microwave for a few moments! The result is a warm and tasty treat that easily beats eating these cakes at room temperature or cold. These cakes consist …
Skinny Girl Margarita
I guess I’ve been drinking Skinny Girl Margarita for the better part of a year now. I’m a big Bethany Frankle fan anyway so I was eager to find out what the big deal was with this drink. When it showed up at my local Safeway, on sale no …
Nescafe 3 in 1 Instant Coffee Mix in INTENSE
I like instant coffee, but I am a little picky about what coffee I buy. I like the Nescafe 3 in 1 Brands, and I like the one that says INTENSE. There are other flavors to choose from, but for Php50 for pack of 12 individual packs. This one …
Ocean Spray Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
Back in December I was busy stocking up for the coming winter and one of the things I bought was cans of Ocean Spray Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce. As I don’t have a car, it can be tough getting out to the stores in the winter, as I never …
Pringles Multigrain Crisps Cheesy Cheddar
I really like the concept behind multigrain crisps. They’re like potato chips, except a little easier on the body because they contain parts of grains that contribute to a healthier heart and lower bad cholesterol. Now these crisps aren’t what I would consider a health food, not at all, …
Calzones at the J
The “J” cafeteria at Humboldt State University serves calzones for lunch every tuesday. A calzone is like a small pizza without the sauce that is folded in half and closed, so it’s like a big home-made cheesey pizza pocket. The cost is $1.10 with a meal plan …
Marie Callender’s Original Corn Bread Mix
Growing up, I loved corn bread. My family had it often, but it was always a chore to make it. There were so many ingredients and so much mixing to do. It was messy and time consuming. Over the years, some companies have come out …
V8 V-Fusion Drinks
While I am a fan of mixed vegetable drinks, my mother and sister beat me with their zeal for this particular beverage. I am more a lover of fruit drinks myself. Maybe it is the fact that I have a sweet tooth, or maybe I just don’t enjoy the …
Rice-A-Roni: Creamy Four Cheese Flavor
In winter my thoughts turn to comfort food. I’m not much of a cook, so quick and easy, box type foods are great for me. I love Rice-A-Roni and the Four Cheese flavor is my favorite. The cheeses are cheddar, parmesan, romano and blue cheese. Yum!
I like the fact …
Nantucket Nectars Half & Half Lemonade & Iced Tea
I have been drinking this Half & Half for some time now, because I like the Nantucket Nectars company. I also drink their lemonade, which I enjoy very much. But sometimes I like a change from a strictly citrus drink, so I switch to this Half & Half drink. …
Blue Bunny BIG Bopper Ice Cream Sandwich
Blue Bunny BIG Bopper Ice Cream Sandwich is really a delicious treat that is not only huge in size, but also, huge in flavor as well! This ice cream sandwich consists of two large and scrumptious chocolate chip cookies that are quite heavily decorated with tasty chocolate chips and …
McCormick Pure Orange Extract
I bought this orange extract because I was looking to make some orange-flavored candy. I like to buy pure and natural flavors whenever I can, so I really liked that this extract was a pure product. It is made from 80 percent alcohol, water, and oil of orange. Oil …
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, …
Haagen-Daz Ice Cream Mooncake
Despite the price, Haagen Daz is the favourite ice cream for most people. Now, Haagen Daz come up with a new product that makes me like them even more.
Haagen Daz Ice Cream Mooncake.
Lately, people try to make all kind of flavors for …
Yoplait Original Yogurt
I started buying and consuming this yogurt brand right after giving birth to my daughter. I needed a boost of calcium and I find eating this yogurt is a better alternative than drinking milk which I hate or taking calcium supplements which comes in big tablets which made me …
Sun Belle Blueberries
I picked up a one and a half pound clam-shell package of Sun Belle blueberries on my last trip to Costco. These berries are from Sun Belle Berries out of Santiago, Chile.
I’ve been trying to eat more fruit lately and sprinkled on cereal and just eaten plain, these blueberries …
Mr. Chips by Jack and Jill
Mr. Chips remained true to its promise which was written on the back of its foil package. It said that “You just don’t bite your Mr. Chips chip. You go out and gobble them all up.”
Each bite of a chip makes you feel the cheesy goodness of it. Filled …
Crunchy Tacos
Taco Bell’s Crunchy Tacos are absolutely amazing. They have a taste that you will for sure never forget. Its so delicious and makes my mouth water just thinking about them. Its a taco shell combined with delicious meat, creamy cheese and letuce. I defenitely recommend everyone trying this product. …
Leslie’s Red Hot Cheezy
I used to eat a lot of junk food when I was younger, but as I grew older I had to think of my health and decrease my junk food intake considerably. But there is one junk food that I cannot let go of, and that is Leslie’s Red …
Lucerne Large Grade AA Eggs
While I admit that I am buy more store brand products these days due to my financial situation, I am still leery of some items from certain departments, including dairy. While I’m essentially forced to buy from Safeway sometimes, I usually stay away from their store brand, which …
Ferrato’s Meatballs
I recently purchased a bag of Ferrato’s Meatballs the last time I was at our local Save-a-Lot store so I could use them in my spaghetti later in the week.
I used them last night and was pretty impressed with the overall quality.
The meatballs lacked a bit in terms of …
Complan
Complan is another health drink, which is from India. But I did not like it due to some reasons and here I would like to state those reasons. Complan is called as the complete planned food and it also promises that it gives all the necessary minerals …
Aldi Cowbelle British Double Cream
Aldi and Lidl seem to appeal to shoppers. Look on the supermarket shelves in both stores and you see few branded goods, but we find their food products and cleaning goods represent good value for money. I usually buy a small pot of double cream to serve with a …
McCormick Imitation Coconut Extract
I love the flavor of coconut. I love its rich and wonderful taste. I was in the grocery store looking for something that would give me a coconut flavoring when I saw this extract. I bought it to impart a coconut taste to a recipe I was making in …
Lunch Mate Deli Style Premium Honey Ham
Meats and cheeses sold at the deli counter in grocery stores can be pricey. That’s not to say some of the meats and cheeses aren’t worth the money and of course, it’s nice being able to have your meat or cheese sliced the way you like it, but if …
Sam’s Choice Cranberry Juice Cocktail
We bought a 2 qt bottle of Sam’s Choice Cranberry Juice Cocktail to try something new these hot days. Cranberry sounded good and refreshing - and so it was. The bottle didn’t last us a day.
This cranberry drink tastes so good, especially when it is cold. The flavor is …
Little Debbie Christmas Ginger Cookies
I did not enjoy these Little Debbie Christmas Ginger Cookies at all. The gingerbread cookies did not have the flavor that I expected them too. In fact, they pretty much had no flavor at all! Did they forget to add the ginger to the recipe, or something? The cookie …
Peter Pan peanut butter
Peter Pan peanut butter is relatively less thick than some other peanut butters I tried. The taste of peanuts is not highlighted in this product which gives it a different blend of taste while spreading on the bread. Even though it is written crunchy on the label of Peter …
Grandma Corbi’s Chocolate Chunk Cookie Dough
My husbands little half brother was selling Grandma Corbi’s Homemade cookie dough as a fundraising program for their soccer team I believe it was. The rest of the cookies for sale on the fundraising sheet didn’t look very good and the Chocolate Chunk cookie dough wasn’t as expensive as …
Kroger Value Pancake Syrup
Kroger Value Pancake Syrup is not the richest and not the thickest pancake and waffle syrup that I have ever placed on my pancakes or waffles, but I still find it to be an enjoyable syrup that enhances my satisfaction of eating pancakes and waffles or when I dip …
Gortons Lemon Herb Fish
Gortons makes a fantastic fish taht you can easily cook in your own home. I have recently gotten back into eating fish after several years steering away from it. My favorite so far has been them lemon herb, gortons puts just teh right amount of seasoning on it to …
Thumann’s Beef Frankfurters
I had never heard of Thumann’s Beef Frankfurters when I came across them in the grocery store, but I nonetheless purchased them because at the time, I had not yet found a store sold hot dog that I was satisfied with. This did not turn out to be the …

Hawaiian Punch Lemon Berry Squeeze Juice
I remember always drinking Hawaiian Punch as child. My favorite flavor was lemon berry squeeze and I loved the taste and the fruitiness. I always drunk it when I was thirsty, but as an adult now, I don’t favor it much as I used to. Hawaiian Punch is very …
Quaker Oats Original
Crash diets are not always the answer to have a healthier and slim body. At times these lead to ulcers, hyperacidity and other digestive disorders that will bring more harm to our health. If you are searching for something to eat without being starved out, Instant Quaker Oats Original …
Stouffer’s Classic Italian Deli
Stouffer’s Classic Italian Deli is a fairly light yet relatively flavorful sandwich that I like to have for lunch every now and then. This is not a heavy or a rich sandwich, but it is nonetheless enjoyable. Both pepperoni and salami can be found, along with provolone and mozzerella …
Pizza Hut Super Panalo 99 Pesos Value Meal
I was on the way to work when I crave to eat an early lunch. I decided to have some pizza and pasta. I called my friend to join me to try Pizza Hut’s Super Panalo 99 Peso (Philippine Peso) Value Meals. There’s only few other customers when we …
Mrs. Freshley’s Halloween: Chocolate Mini Donuts
Do not let the Halloween name and special packaging trick you: Mrs. Freshley’s Halloween: Chocolate Mini Donuts features no unique or special Halloween decorations or flavors. The chocolate donuts are just that - chocolate with typical donut cake inside. Why they even bother to add the word “Halloween” is …
Nutriblend Coffee Mix
I love coffee but with all the commotion about its effects and its benefits I began to doubt if drinking coffee is good for me since so many articles have come out and say that coffee is not good for you then other articles would come out and say …
O’Charley’s Mediterranean Chicken Wrap
Right now, everyone is swarming to O’Charley’s because they are having some great deals. They are offering two selected entrees for $14.99, and the entrée offerings are pretty hearty. I’ve tried about half of them and found them to be very satisfying. Lately, they’re offering three …
Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference Costa Rica Tarrazu Ground Filter Coffee
The brightly coloured packaging of this range of ground coffees from Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference brand caught my eye and on closer inspection I saw that there was a choice of coffees with different flavours. I cannot remember the whole range, but they each have a different bright …
Crystal Farms Swiss Cheese
I was in the mood for Swiss cheese last night so I decided to stop off at the store to buy some. I wanted a cheaper brand of it and, since the store brand was already sold out (apparently others had the same idea I did), I ended up …
Dannon Caramel Yogurt
Somewhere somebody in a board room meeting announced “I’ve got a great idea! Let’s combine yogurt and caramel!” This somebody is probably now among the 10% who are unemployed in the United States. As this yogurt seemed to be different, we decided to give it a try. …
Cooper’s Toasted Beef Ravioli
Tasteless is the word that I think best describes Cooper’s Toasted Beef Ravioli. The raviolis are quite generously packed with beef, but the problem is not with the quantity, but the quality. The quality of the beef isn’t all that hot. The beef is pretty much devoid of flavor …
Libby’s Vienna Sausages
I like Libby’s Vienna Sausages, they are tasty and soft, an excellent choice for a quick snack. The tiny can of 6 small sausages costs under 50 cents. The sausages look like hotdogs cut in half. They are made of chicken, pork, and beef; very tender and moderately salty. …
Lean Cuisine Rosemary Chicken
This is one of my favorite Lean Cuisine meals! I feel so health-conscious every time I eat it. Lean Cuisine describes this meal as “Roasted chicken tenderloins with a garlic-rosemary sauce with spinach and brown and wild rice.”
If you are dieting by counting your daily calories, at 210 calories, …
Amy’s Complete Frozen Enchilada Dinner
Being vegan it makes it hard to find a good old fashion TV dinner. I know that it is better to prepare fresh homemade meals, but sometimes it is nice to have something you can pop in the oven, without any thought.
I often keep Amy’s Enchilada frozen meals …
Tropical Lifesavers
Lifesavers have always been one of those candies that I like, but don’t seek out on my own. The reason is that they remind me a little too much of my grandmother, who used to carry them around in the bottom of her purse and give one to me …
