Stouffer’s Vegetable Lasagna
Stouffer’s Vegetable Lasagna is an enjoyable change of pace from the meat and cheese lasagna variety. Now, I like cheese, and I do like meat, but I do not mind having something a little different every now and then. Plus, there is still some cheese to be found on …

Tang Fruit Teaz Peach Tea

Hostess Donettes Maple Glazed Mini Donuts
Hostess Donettes, like a number of other Hostess products, have been around for quite awhile. That tells me that enough people enjoy them and purchase them for Hostess to keep shipping them out to stores. I personally have never been what one would consider a fan of the mini …

Kirkland Signature (BJ’s Brand) Vanilla Soy Milk

Hershey’s Hugs
If you have not tried Hershey’s Hugs yet, you definitely should! They are a branch off from the standard Hershey’s Kisses, only it’s regular milk chocolate “hugged” in white chocolate. What a way to dress up a regular Hershey’s Kiss! These are much better, and they …

Wheat Thins Chips Veggie
These crisps aren’t bad, but they really don’t stand out in any significant way. Sure, they’re real crispy, but the crispiness of the Wheat Thins isn’t as important to me as the flavor is. These Wheat Thins are supposed to offer a blend of onions, red peppers, celery, tomatoes …

Marlboro Lights is the cigarette brand that I patronize. It tastes just right and since it’s lights, the nicotine content is not too high. The smell is also not as irritating as the other brands and not that strong. One complaint that I have about this product is that …
Luigi’s Real Italian Ice Watermelon and Blue Raspberry
This was a disappointing variety pack of naturally-flavored Italian Ice from Luigi’s Italian Ice. Neither flavor wowed me and neither flavor satisfied me outside of being a cold frozen treat that delivered refreshing relief from the hot summer heat. I can get that pleasant cool sensation from other frozen …

One thing I can confidently say though, is that coffee is addictive and I am living evidence …
