This particular McDonald’s restaurant is almost always busy, probably because of its location on a university campus. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, it’s still a fairly clean location. (I’ve been in some McDonald’s restaurants that were not). So it’s your standard bright and cheerful McDonald’s (although it …

These make a great quick meal! It’s very convenient to be able to come home and just open a can and heat it up. Sometimes we cut up some sausage or a cooked hotdog and add it to the beans.
We usually eat this over rice, or with a piece …

Rold Gold Pretzel rods are one of my favorite of the long (about 7 or 8 inches long) pretzel sticks that were traditional in my childhood years. These are not the little, thin pretzel sticks; these are the longer thicker sticks.
In terms of taste, I really like the …

I had never heard of the “Columbina Cappuccino Millows Marshmallows” until my brother got one of them for me after work as a treat. A single small pretty and white marshmallow with some brown swirls on it came in a small transparent bag, and I do not think that …

Hostess has really gone all out this autumn in producing pumpkin-flavored snacks and I can’t recall the company ever giving so many of its year-round snack cakes and treats a limited time pumpkin make-over. I’m not complaining though; the more foods pumped with pumpkin spice goodness, the better, for …

One of the …

I always thought that Edy’s ice creams were good. When I saw that they had frozen yogurt, I was curious about these products. I ended up trying their vanilla flavor. I love frozen yogurt but I personally rarely see it in grocery stores, so I don’t often have access …

I fell in love with this chocolate spread the first time I tried it. It tastes so yummy and satisfies my craving for something sweet and chocolatey but healthy. One jar of this delicious spread contains real hazelnuts which makes this one healthy. I usually spread it on top …

I am pretty pleased with Mrs. Freshley’s Raspberry Creme Cakes. I find that unlike with some of the other products by this company, like the banana cakes, this creme cake actually has a pretty decent raspberry flavor that I find rather scrumptious - especially after I have just heated …

It was given to us for free when we paid our grocery stuffs at the cashier in Hypercity Mall in Malad. It was my first time to eat such energy bar like Nature Valley Crunchy Granola in Roasted Almond and I thought that it was kinda great to eat …

Of course I’ve heard of Jelly Belly jellybeans, back in the day I won a competition on their website and applied for (and received) numerous samples of their sweets. The thing is I hardly ever got to try them as my two older girls’ would invariably get to them …

A box of these cookies was given to me to try from someone who had obtained several of them.
I was excited.
The thought of Peanut Butter inside one of my favourite cookies was something that really appealed to me.
I love both peanut butter and who can resist an Oreo cookie?
I …

Just as our mothers always told us, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is the meal that gets our bodies ready to take on the challenges of each new day and prepares our metabolisms to work more efficiently throughout the day. Despite this knowledge, …

I love drinking tea. Other than beer, it’s my favorite beverage. (don’t tell my girlfriend, she thinks I quit.) I’ve tried multiple brands but I find myself coming back to Lipton.
Liptons twenty-four pack family sized tea bags is an incredible deal. Depending on how strong you like your tea, …

There is not a week that past by that I don’t cook rice risotto at home every evening but at that time I was just using a different brand which was a bit too expensive when I finally discovered at last this Tesco Arborio risotto rice for an affordable …

I am not too fond of Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Butter Pecan. The ice cream is certainly edible and to an extent enjoyable, however the butter pecan flavor is not really quite as rich as I was hoping it would be. I expected the flavor to be richer …

Guess what time it is again?
(Don’t break out in a sweat—¦I’m being rhetorical of course. Trust me, you’re good!)
It’s time to break out the old mythical lunch pail and thermos again to sample yet another lunchtime soup. (Can you tell I’m on a diet and working out again yet?) …

Another guilty pleasure of mine is buying “Charles Peanut Gems” whenever I can find them. These are chocolate covered peanuts that have a candy coating. In a sense they remind me of a cheaper, more Caribbean brand of M&Ms since it have blue, yellow, green brown and red chocolate …

My room mate and I both agree, Corona Extra beer is the best beer in the world, in terms of taste. It’s made in Mexico and this country sure knows how to make a good beer. I used to think that San Miguel Beer, made in the Philippines, …

I am most certainly a popsicle addict. But I like popsicle flavors that are a little “outside the box”, not your traditional Cherry, Grape, and Orange. So, when I perused the frozen food aisles at my local Kroger several years ago, and found banana popsicles, …

With two young children, it is hard to find time to make anything but quick, simple meals. Chicken is a staple in our house, and our regular chicken dishes quickly get boring. I picked up a bottle of Lemon and Black Pepper Marinade from

The syrup has a really good, strong cherry flavor to it without being …

I bought this drink out of curiosity, really. The proclamation of bubbles melting on my tongue enticed me to give Nestle’s latest offering in the heated beverages department a whirl. When boiling water is added, it is true, an impressive crop of bubbles forms, much like when you froth …
