I have been drinking Slim-Fast for about 2 years solid now. I have one for breakfast every morning. I only like the rich chocolate royale flavor shake. The other flavors gross me out leaving a weird after taste. The rich chocolate royale flavor is really good though. The bars …

I’m not much of a white wine drinker because it’s often too sweet for me, so I asked the wine shop owner to recommend me a good, not-to-sweet white wine. He recommended this one, and I’m definitely a fan.
Although it doesn’t have the delicate notes of citrus or …

Mamee monster - The title alone will create the impression of a terribly unhealthy, but incredibly delicious snack. It is one of the better ‘Made in Malaysia’ snacks, as compared to snacks like ‘Super ring’ (a cheap version of Cheezels) and the like.
Mamee monster is essentially a packet of …

Betty Crocker is a brand name that I know and trust, but they really dropped the ball with their Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes.
First, they are very high in sodium and they contain MSG (monosodium glutamate, which has been connected to migraine headaches and other health problems). …

I can’t get over this because the taste is still in my mouth, and that taste is something that I really don’t care for. The only reason I bought these was because I thought they were the regular Crunch Eggs. The bag shows the Crunch logo in big letters, …

I love Trident White peppermint flavored chewing gum. My girlfriend bought that particular pack of gum, and now we both chew it. There’s something about the taste that isn’t as overbearing as other flavored gum. Okay, I’ll explain:
After brushing my teeth, I feel a light build-up of toothpaste still …

Foster’s beer is my absolute favorite tasting beer. I can’t believe it took me so many years to find it. I was always more of a german beer lover before discovering this Australian beauty. Wow! It is so smooth and light and oh so tasty. …

I observed a very slight change in the taste after drinking this caffine free Coca-cola. The original coca-cola was little bit strong. Where as caffine free one was light. The 300 ml tin was very attractive in Gold color wrapper. They say that it is caffine free. Though it …

The first time I heard of the product CHipster’s potato chips was a little after I gratuated from high school or maybe I was about to graduate. I heard it advertising on the radio a lot and judged by the accents of people used to advertise them that the …

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 …

Most people I ever discussed these “topix” with, liked —“ or, in some cases, disliked - the original Twix because of its gooey caramel and crumbling biscuit filling. It was —“ still is - achingly sweet and it felt like it would take a week to brush it off the …

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, …

I just cooked myself up a bowl of Kraft Mac and Cheese. This is one of those foods that I just never get tired of. I’ve had this several times in a week before and I still enjoy it every time.
It’s perfect. It’s pretty easy …

While I’m not a huge lover of tinned foods, especially tin fish, I don’t mind the occasional tin mackerel especially if it’s prepared properly and it has a particular texture. Most recently, I’ve discovered that the “Lasco Mackerel Chunky in Tomato Sauce” is one of the brands of tin …

While visiting the U.S.A. recently, I stopped in at one of the Johnny Rockets diners for lunch one day. Johnny Rockets diners have the theme of a classic American restaurant that has a very cool vibe and friendly staff. It makes you feel as though you are …

I’m not quite as wild about this vegetable medley, compared with the others sold under the Great Value brand at Walmart in the can and in the frozen food section. First of all, neither the cauliflower nor the broccoli taste like much. They’re both somewhat bland, and what flavor …

My sister and I dine in at Pizza hut one time. We ordered pan Pizza and pasta and we decided to order a dessert to make a difference. We ordered Mango Panna Cotta. The serving cost PHP 79. We never thought how small the serving is and the features …

These pizza rolls are positively horrid on all accounts. There’s not one redeeming quality that springs to mind when I think back to the time I gave these a one and only try. I like pizza, but just good pizza, and this is not what I consider to be …

If you enjoy pop-tarts, chocolate, or smores, you should definitely try Poptarts in the Smore flavor. Perhaps they don’t have a complete resemblance in even taste to real smores, but oh well. They have a gram cracker-like surrounding with chocolate and marshmellow flavors in the middle. …

I have tried other pancake mixes, as well as baking mixes. I came back to Bisquick. Bisqick just makes a better pancake, as well as good waffles. I also use bisquick to make bread, cinnamon rolls, bisquits, and any thing else that requires a great dough. My pie crusts …

Hubby went outside to buy our dinner and when he came back he already bought beer with him. It was not the regular beer that we used to drink during our weekend dinner at home. It was my first time to taste London Pilsner Premium beer. It was not …
