Fresh Express The Original Iceberg Garden
I used to purchase this bagged salad pretty often because I liked the freshness and crispiness of the iceberg lettuce and the mild flavor of the red cabbage. I disliked the tough and very bland strings of carrots and I used to take time to pick out the carrots …

It is Christmastime and here in the Philippines that means that all our relatives from other countries are coming home and bringing with them a little bit of wherever they came from, which we call pasalubong. This year, one of our relatives brought home Donckels Belgian Truffles from the …
Home Style Select Ripple Potato Chips
These chips from the Dollar Tree are really no deal. Although they only cost a dollar, the bag size is just six ounces. I can get twelve ounce bags from Walmart for under two dollars when I purchase the Great Value brand and for even less at ALDI if …
D Gourmet Muesli 400g
I have only tried having muesli for breakfast recently, but in this month alone, I have already consumed two boxes of D Gourmet. I have tremendous faith in the D Gourmet brand.
It’s not because their health products are made in the United Kingdom. It’s the noticeable quality …
Kraft Amooza Twist Cheese String
Kraft Amooza Twist Cheese String has just become my daughter’s new favourite cheese snack lately. Before we saw Amooza twist’s first appearance in No Frills, we always picked Black Diamond cheese string and fun cheese, which was a bit pricy.
The first time we spotted Amooza Twist in No …
San Mig Coffee 3-in-1 Sugar Free
I love coffee and I like it strong and full-bodied. However, my husband and I have to go to the office early and, most of the time, there is just no time to brew coffee.
Luckily, there is San Mig Coffee Instant 3-in-1 Coffee Mix. It is three-in-one because …
Nestle White Lily Milk
I am a person who loves my milk and when I was younger I used to drink Nestle’s White Lily milk quite often. The quality back then was very rich and worth the money. But as time progressed the quality dropped but the prices raised.
The other day I …

Post Honey Bunches Of Oats
Post honey bunches of oats cereal is a great cereal that is reasonably priced. I like the flavor of this cereal very much. It has a slightly sweet taste to it but is not overwhelming with the sugar. The Post honey bunches of oats cereal stays …
Papa Johns Pizza
Honestly, Papa Johns Pizza is the best pizza in the world! I used to like pizza to a certain point, but I never *loved* it until I had tried Papa Johns. Pizza Hut used to be what I thought was good, freshly made pizza, but Papa Johns beats it …
Kelloggs Nutrigrain cereal bars
Kelloggs Nutrigrain cereal bars are delicious. They come in many different flavors. My favorites are the cherry and mixed berry. They are only 140 calories each and are a great breakfast substitute. They are mixed with whole grains and fruit filling in a soft …

Nestle Koko Krunch is a chocolatey cereal made for kids and the kids at heart like myself. Nestle Koko Krunch is a favorite of my kids because not only does it taste wonderful, it also makes them healthy. If you take a look at the packaging of this product, …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Pistachio
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Pistachio is a scrumptious and flavorful variety that really does a number on my taste buds with its rich and potent pistachio flavor! I like to just let the Jell-o rest in my mouth and excite my taste buds for a short while before swallowing. …
Danacol Danone
Who said that everything healthy has to have bad taste? This product is a very good proof that this statement is not correct.
Danone is a company that produces dairies and it has the base in France, in Italy, where I live their products are very popular but I know …
McDonald’s McGriddle (Sausage, Egg & Cheese)
The McDonald’s McGriddle is, quite simply, incredibly delicious. It is perhaps one of the most tasty and satisfying things that I can have for breakfast. Of course, I cannot have it as often as I would really, really like to because the calorie count of just one McGriddle is …
The Bakery At Walmart Old Fashion Cake Donut Holes
The Bakery At Walmart Old Fashion Cake Donut Holes is a product that can only be found at Walmart stores. The donut holes come in a transparent container and can be found near the bakery, typically. The last time I purchased this product, I paid one dollar and fifty …

Red Bull Cola is a new product of well known global company specialising in energy drinks. What makes that soft drink really amazing is the fact that it contains various natural ingredients, which make it taste really incredible. If you ever wondered what the original coke must have tasted …
Mekeni Picnic Hotdogs
I can’t believe this hotdog. I really appreciate my compatriots’ coming up with this product. It’s surprisingly cheap though its taste can compare with the leading hotdog brands like Purefoods and Swift. And it’s not packed in a ‘just like that’ manner. Then I thought, maybe the texture won’t …
Farm Rich Cheese Sticks
Fairly crispy and excessively flavorful essentially describes how I feel about the cheese sticks made by Farm Rich. I have no doubt that these cheese sticks would come out crisper if I were to deep fry them - one of the three means of preparing the cheese sticks according …
Nagaraya
Nagaraya is the original Cracker nuts introduced here in the Philippines. It is manufactured and distributed by the Food Industries Inc in manila. This cracker nut is really tasty and flavorful. It is crunchy with fresh peanuts in it. The peanuts sometimes do have a bad nut, but then …
Benjamin Australia Tawny Port
I am not what you would call a beer fan, and hard liquor turns me the color of a freshly boiled lobster ready to be served on a silver platter after one shot while wine coolers pretty much taste nasty, even if they do smell yummy.
In short, the only …
Sainsbury’s Basic Muesli Breakfast Cereal
I like to review these bargain-basement cheap products as some of them are quite passable even though you would expect it to taste disgusting at the price. I bought a big 1kg bag of muesli from the Sainsbury’s Basics range for about 30p. This will keep me …
ACT II Popcorn Balls
With Halloween coming up soon, we figured it was time to have some popcorn balls around the house. As kids, my wife and I both remembered how good they were as a light treat and we figured our daughter would get the same enjoyment.
After searching the town for some, …
Slimfit Tropical Fruit Powdered Drink
A lot of slimming products in the market are quite competing with one another with claims like ‘fastest fat burner’ or ‘contains 100% L-Carnitine’. However, my mom recommended Slimfit for me. It doesn’t sound popular in the market nowadays but I find it very effective.
I was having a hard …
Loacker, the Original Quadratini Cappuccino
Yesterday my sister offer me a wafer that I never see before. Its not familiar for me because its look doesn’t available in my country. After looking at the barnd, I thought for a while, seems I know with that brand, and then I remember, oww thats the same …

One of the most popular foods or gifts to buy when you’re in the Philippines is dried mangoes. I have a lot of friends from abroad who bring boxes of it home when they come here to visit. The most famous place to buy dried mangoes is …
Hungry Jack Easy Pack Blueberry Wheat Mix
This “Easy Pack” mix suffers from two devastating problems that really add up to one big-time disappointing pancake mix. First of all, the mix calls for water and not milk, eggs and oil. Adding water as opposed to milk, eggs and oil ends up creating an inferior pancake. The …
Snickers (Chocolate Bars)
I would admit, I am a chocolate monster. I do love chocolates and one of them is this very irresistible Snickers bars. Even if my husband would joke it is not good for my figures, I would just laugh it off and would not mind. After all he himself …
Covo Cookies Chocolate
I like chocolate chips cookies, sometimes I make them myself but then I usually make a bunch of them and that means putting some weight on. So although it is much cheaper to make them than to buy them I started buying them. For 1E I can make at …
White Fudge Covered Oreos
I love oreos and I have always seen white fudge covered oreos being sold. I love white chocolate personally but is is obviously the sweetest “chocolate” you can get out there and I actually wondered if white fudge would be just a bit too sweet (compared to chocolate) to …
Steak ‘n Shake Frozen Silver Dollar Potato Hash Browns
Steak ‘n Shake has been a pretty popular casual dining destination for decades now in various areas of the country. Indeed, while famous for steak burgers, there is plenty of other stuff to order off of the menu, and recently, Steak ‘n Shake has followed in the footsteps of …
Alexia Crunchy Snacks Waffle Fries - Classic Ranch
Alexia Crunchy Snacks Waffle Fries - Classic Ranch is not a flavor variety that I enjoyed very much, although I thought that I would because ranch dressing is one of three dressings I always keep in my refrigerator. The reason that I did not care for the flavor of …
Nestle Coffee Mate Coffee Whithener
My coffee time will never be satisfying without my Nestle Coffee Mate creamer. I know it’s fattening some says. But drinking coffee is the only pleasure I give to myself in between housechores, work and errands. There was a time when I ran out of Coffee …
Perk Poppers chocolate
I knew about this chocolate since a long time but I never tasted it. Perk Poppers are actually a set of oval balls containing biscuit-like fillings coated with chocolate. They are packed in a small bag, which is half the size of a cargo pocket. I ate this chocolate …
KFC in SM Megamall
KFC is my all time favorite, when it comes to fast foods. Well, I think they are better than others because somehow they have some healthy treats on their menu. Not just deep fried munchies. So, if you and you’re friends are saving money but you want to eat …
Swans Maine Beekeeper Raw Unfiltered Wildflower Honey
My favorite raw unfiltered honey to use in my herbal teas and to help sweeten up other taste treats such as corn bread and blueberry muffins is the Swans Maine Beekeeper Raw Unfiltered Wildflower Honey. I love this raw honey because it still has all its potent nutrients in …
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 …
Haagen Dazs vanilla cookies cream
This ice cream brand is famous not only for being specially expensive, but also for its big variety of flavours and its taste.
I bought Haagen Dazs vanilla cookies cream in the 100 ml format, as I wanted to give a first try to that taste. The price is very …
Buffalo Wild Wings’ Ribs
Since I love Buffalo Wild Wings’ wings I decided to try their ribs because the picture of them on the menu looked delicious. However, I have to admit I was dissapointed. The ribs were too small and really didn’t taste like real ribs. Since I’m a sauce person, there …
BayMist Cranberry Raspberry Juice Cocktail
I have enjoyed BayMist Cranberry Raspberry Juice Cocktail for some eight months (bought at a Sav-A-Lot store in Tucson at under two Dollars) especially for its pleasant raspberry flavor, even when diluted one part juice with two parts water. A 64 oz. bottle bought on May 10, 2007 - …
Compliments Sensations Double Chocolate Truffle Hot Chocolate
My family and I buy a lot of the Compliments line of food products and the Compliment Sensations are a new more up market line of foods. When the Double Chocolate Truffle Hot Chocolate came available I quickly bought it even though the price was a little steep at …
Little Debbie Holiday Crispy Bars
I find these Little Debbie Holiday Crispy Bars to be rather average. Although the marshmallow flavor is quite tasty, it is really nothing that I have not tasted before. These crispy and crunchy bars are pretty much Rice Krispies treats decorated for the Christmas season. The candies that decorate …
Fit & Active Blueberry Fruit & Grain Cereal Bars
Of the three flavors of cereal bars offered through the Fit & Active line of products found at Aldi, I love the blueberry cereal bars the most and these are the only fruit flavored cereal bars that I’ll purchase of the three. I tried both the strawberry and the …

These have got to be my favourite mixed chocolates of all time. When I was younger the only time we had Quality Streets was at Christmas when we would get a big tin in. I used to look forward to Christmas Eve when I would be allowed to open …
L’oven Fresh Mini Muffins Blueberry
These mini muffins were okay, although they didn’t really satisfy me to the point where I wanted to rush out and purchase another package once they were all gone. There’s nothing really wrong with these mini muffins, they’re just pretty average, maybe slightly above average. Perhaps the best quality …
