The other day I …
Cafe Breton’s Gallete Don Quixote Gourmet Crepe

Hungry Jack Original Pankcake Mix
I much prefer the version of this mix that requires milk, eggs and oil be added as opposed to the mix that simply calls for water. Although the mix that requires milk, eggs and oil is certainly less healthy due to additional fat and cholesterol that comes from the …
Terra Sweets & Carrots
Terra Sweets & Carrots are potato chips, although they certainly represent something very different from the typical potato chip. For one thing, these chips somehow manage to hold a full and compete serving of vegetables. Now I am skeptical, especially since potato chips in general are, well, a junk …
Kellogg’s Special K20 Pink Lemonade Protein Water Mix

Shultz Honey Wheat Braided Pretzel Twists
I didn’t like the mixture of sweet and salty that permeated throughout these pretzel sticks. Although neither flavor was extremely strong, I still didn’t think that honey mixed well with salt. The amount of salt on these pretzels is relatively low although it’s still enough to be tasted. I’m …

Kellogg’s All-Bran Apple Cinnamon Streusel Fiber Bar
I purchase these fiber bars once and awhile. I would purchase them more often, but honestly, the apple and cinnamon flavor is not all that terrific or incredible. I mean, both flavors are noticeable and what flavor that is there is quite good, but there just is not enough …
Hornsby’s Crisp Apple Hard Cider
If you like the taste of apples, you will love this hard cider! I have tried a lot of different hard ciders because I enjoy regular cider so much, and this one tastes just like apple cider. You would never guess that these drinks have a 5% alcohol content.

Chunky Vegetable Beef Stew
Typically, if I’m looking for a quick lunch, I can’t go wrong with Chunky Soup. But, after trying their Vegetable Beef Stew, I have to say I don’t intend on buying that variety again.
Flavor wise, it was OK. It was a bit too salty for my tastes but it …
