Wispa Chocolate Bar
This bar of Chocolate has been out for as long as I can remember, but around 1998 these Chocolate Bars vanished from all shelves. The Wispa Bar wasn’t getting sold anymore. Rumours was that the sales of them were poor, but then again when you see all the Chocolate …
Anlene High-Calcium Low Fat Milk Concentrate
Anlene is a range of milk products which is meant to resolve the common bone nutrients deficiencies found in most adults. When Anlene was first advertised on TV, I actually did not pay much attention. I was thinking it was just the same as the many high-calcium …
Arrowhead Mills Creamy Organic Peanut Butter
Many peanut butters contain large amounts of pestisides. They also contain a carcinogenic mold called aflatoxin. I feel quite confidant that the Arrowhead Mills Organic Peanut Butter does not contain these “scary little aliens”, since they use only organic valencia peanuts. …
Cooper’s Cheesy Breadsticks
Cooper’s Cheesy Breadsticks sell for two dollars and nineteen cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Five cheesy breadsticks come in a box. Breadsticks that are filled with cheese aren’t cheap, regardless of what store I go to, but the Cooper’s brand found at ALDI Food Markets is about the …

Although these Little Debbie Holiday Snack Cakes - Vanilla variety are only available around Christmas time, I do manage to hold them over for a couple months after they have left the grocery store shelves by sticking them in the refrigerator. The reason I do this because I enjoy …
Reser’s Creamy Mashed Potatoes
In a simplified Christmas meal, I enjoyed one of the products from Reser’s Fine Foods, their ‘Creamy Mashed Potatoes’, which is one of their ‘Sensational Sides’ foods.

Fast Fixin chicken breast nuggets

DEL MONTE LITE MIXED FRUITS
Sometimes, it just seems difficult to keep fresh fruit around the house for all those lunches that the children and the adults need during the day. Fruit is so important. Fruit is what a person who is watching their diet,should eat, when the sugar ‘wants’ hit! Fruit will take …
MacDonalds McChicken Sandwich
In my early twenties, as I started to go off the Big Macs I turned to the McChicken Sandwich at MacDonalds after hearing good things about it. A piece of breaded chicken in a bun with mayonnaise and lettuce was actually pretty good. My only usual criticism of …
Kraft Oreo Fun Stix
I have known Oreo as a plain cookie, suitable for kid’s but it did not stop me from enjoying it while I was starting college. In fact, this was still my favorite snack together with a cold chocolate drink. In the US, there are lots of variations on Oreo cookies. …
Knorr’s Cheddar Broccoli Rice Side
I decided to make brats the other night and, after realizing I didn’t have anything in our pantry, ran up the street to Walgreens so I could pick up some things to go with them.
One of the items I ended up buying was a packet of Cheddar Broccoli Rice …
Bailie Nicol Jarvie Whisky
Many Scotch whiskies have associations with historical characters. Grant’s is a case in point. Others celebrate the land itself with names that echo the unusual names in this small nation: Laphroaig, for instance, or Jura, an island to the west of the mainland of Scotland. The whisky I …
Great Value Ripple Cut Potato Chips
Great Value Ripple Cut potato chips are specifically designed for dipping, and they work great. The rippled surface holds more dip than regular chips, which enhances the taste. Even the runny types of dip stay on pretty well. The chips are thick, so they do not easily break or …
Kraft Finely Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
My family has long used Kraft cheese products, but recently, we tried some other brands. They were cheaper and made a lot of the same claims as this item. Having used these alternatives, though, leads me to the conclusion that this specific product, Kraft Finely Shredded Mozzarella …

Podravka Ketchup
I really like ketchup but I can’t eat every ketchup because I really don’t like those sweet ones which don’t even taste like ketchup. I’ve tried a lot of different ketchups in my life and I hated more of them than I liked them. Even some of the very …
Heritage flavoured milk

ACT Microwave Kettle Corn
ACT is one of the leading manufacturers of microwave popcorn and I think they might be the biggest. I always ate their butter popcorn, but I had never even heard of kettle corn until a former roommate of mine introduced me to it. Since that day I’ve stuck with …
Smuckers Uncrustables peanut butter & jelly sandwiches
Smuckers uncrustables have been around for a few years if I remember correctly. When I first saw them I thought they were a completely pointless idea. I was like why would anyone want to spend around $5 on a box of 10 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches when you …
Yogourmet Kefir Powder
While browsing my local health food store a few weeks ago, I came across Yogourmet’s kefir powder and decided to try it. I’ve tried store-bought kefir in North America, and it tastes nothing like the product I remember drinking in Eastern Europe. I was very excited to try the …
Hershey’s Drops - Cookies ‘n’ Creme
Branded as ‘New!’ at the top left of the package, this little bag of sweets called out to me. Being an avid lover of the Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme chocolate bars, I felt that anything with, well, cookies and cream, couldn’t go wrong. So I bought it.
On the package …
Piattos Cheese-Flavored Potato Crisps
Piattos is my favorite line of potato chips. The cheese-flavored variety in particular drives me nuts. It’s the godfather of all junk food.
The thin chips are really ideal in providing maximum cheesy flavor that explodes in my mouth. The rich flavor is exquisite, and I can’t really think …
Kelloggs Corn Flakes Cereal
They call it the original — Kelloggs Corn Flakes Cereal. It’s certainly the most recognizable and purest of the Kelloggs family of cereals. My father loved this product tremendously. It was pretty much a staple in our cupboards as I grew up.
As for me, I wasn’t …
Selecta Coffee Almond Cookies Ice Cream
This new flavor of Selecta didn’t impress me much. With coffee cream as its main flavor, it was mixed with tiny and only a few bits of almonds and cookie crumbs. I didn’t experience anything new or special with this flavor.
I like Coffee Crumble better. The cashew nuts …
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 …
Heinz Baked Beanz Snap Pots
It’s only recently that I have started to eat Baked Beans. Why? Well for years I convinced myself I hated them. Full stop. Then my brother told me when he made beans on toast he melted grated cheese on the top..Mmm this sounded different.
Having tried it myself I …
Irvins Salted Egg Potato Chips

thought it was very comparable …
Fresca Sparkling Citrus Flavored Soda
Fresca. It’s a diet drink with artificial sweeteners, but they aren’t up front with that. There’s nothing on the packaging that indicates it’s diet. That’s how they get you; you’ll see the flashy can in a cooler at a barbecue, and curiosity gets the best of you. You crack …
Forrelli Snack Crackers
Money has been a bit tight and, since I used the last of my money to put some gas in my car this morning, I wasn’t able to buy any sort of snack for my desk at work.

Pasta Roni Cheddar Macaroni
Perhaps one of the most disappointing of the macaroni and cheese box mixes that I have tried over the years, the Pasta Roni Cheddar Macaroni is a boxed mix that should be boxed up and shipped back to the factory it came from. There is actually not a thing …

The Snack Factory - Buffalo Wing Pretzel Crisps
The Snack Factory - Buffalo Wing Pretzel Crisps did not impress me all that much. I do like spicy seasonings on foods, but apparently, spicy seasonings do not belong on pretzels, according to my taste buds. From the first crisp that I tried to the last out of the …
Pan di Stelle, cookies (Mulino bianco)
Mulino bianco (or “White mill”), the line of baked goods produced by the famous Italian company Barilla, includes a good array of different cookies.

Gross Mint Flavored Soda

Angelica’s Bakery Lemon Cake
After seeing another one of her other cakes, I wanted to try this one. Though, I’m not crazy about lemon flavored food items, this cake actually turned out to be the best. The frosting can be a little sweet for some but for me it was just fine. However, …
Breadkraft Chocolate Roll
I bought this delicious bread roll because I wanted something to serve for breakfast and in case I have immediate guests, I can serve this to them. I don’t mind if I don’t tend to keep cookies our something crunchy to munch. Most of my guests prefer something sweet …
Happy Shopper Bourbon Creams

Mrs.T’s Potato & 4 Cheese Bleng Pirogies
I bought a pack of Mrs.T’s Potato & 4 Cheese Bleng Pirogies this week, for the first time. “Pirogies” are neatly folded pasta shells filled with a mixture of potatoes and, in this case, four kinds of cheese: cheddar, parmesan, romano, and swiss. It is a frozen product that …
Wendy’s Stack Attack
The Stack Attack is one of the best things that Wendy’s has come out with in a long time, though I do enjoy the specialty cheeseburgers they bring out every few years. The Stack Attack is their latest addition to the value menu of foods you can order for …
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Mild
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Mild variety is indeed mild. This cheese dip, I think, is ideal for those individuals that like a cheese dip that has just a little fire to it. When I dip a chip in the cheese dip, I get a fairly thick and non-runny dip …
