Lontong (Compressed Rice)
Lontong, or in English known as Compressed Rice is tasty! I’m not sure about people from UK and US; whether they have the chance to have a taste of this delicious food. It is actually like rice-form, and I don’t know whether to label it as just rice …
Goya Adobo seasoning with Pepper
I first bought this seasoning because I had seen it recommended in a cooking newsletter I receive and then found it on sale and a discount market. I figured it was time to try it.

Aunt Jemima Ham and Cheese Omelet
Aunt Jemima Ham and Cheese Omelet is nothing special and in fact, I likely will not be spending money on it a second time. Why exactly did this frozen breakfast meal fail to impress me? Well, for one, the ham did not have a great deal of flavor to …
Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup
I find Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup cookies to be somewhat average in terms of flavor. For a dollar eighty-nine, they just aren’t quite worth the money. These peanut butter cookies are not all peanut butter, but rather, there are pockets of peanut butter. …

Mrs. Freshley’s Lemon Pie
I am really very pleased with Mrs. Freshley’s Lemon Pie, with the exception of the crust, but the crust is bad regardless of which flavor variety I purchase, quite unfortunately. What pleases me about this lemon pie is the lemon filling. Boy is it ever delicious! The lemon filling …

Sarsi Drink
I loved drinking carbonated drink but since I don’t like to much strong I prefer taking root beer. But when I tasted Sarsi that is like a root beer, I switch on this beverage.
Sarsi has been in the market for many years, I never expected that this affordable soft …
Ferrero Rondnoir Chocolates
I am not a big fan of Ferrero, but when I saw Ferrero Rondnoir in a convenience store in Hong Kong, I decided to try it as I haven’t seen it in the Philippines yet. I got attracted to its classy packaging and very tempting picture of the …
Best Foods Olive Oil Mayonnaise Dressing
I’m not a huge fan of mayonnaise, but I do think a good sandwich lacks something if it’s made dry or with mustard only, so it’s important to me to have a GOOD mayonnaise to use in the background. A lot of mayonnaise is just offensive to me, …
Smart Balance Non-Stick Cooking Spray Butter Flavor
My husband and I use cooking spray a lot. Usually we use Pam, but we have been trying to cut down on our cholesterol. We went to Wal-Mart to look for an alternative a decided on this. It was $2.96 for a 5 oz can which was a little …

Jufran Banana Ketchup
I decided to finally try the banana ketchup. How is it different from the normal Del Monte or Heinz tomato ketchup? I love to put ketchup on everything, and when fried fish or chicken is cooked, I put ketchup on it. I really think that food is not complete …
Sainsbury’s Basics Rice Pops Breakfast Cereal
The more I sample of the Sainsbury’s Basics low budget range, the more I think that Tesco’s own ‘Value’ brand is the far superior. Tesco are hit and miss when it comes to their value range but Sainsbury’s appears so far to be consistently poor. I have …
Maggie Moo’s Ice Cream
Maggie Moo’s Ice Cream is a great ice cream parlor! It is of the same cut as Marble Slab Creamery and Cold Stone Creamery but it is definately set apart. The ice cream flavors are awesome, definately check out better batter, you feel like you’re eating cake, sooo good! …
Kellogg’s Special K Protein Meal Bar Chocolatey Chip
I personally do not care for this particular protein bar even though I enjoy chocolate chip cookies. For one thing, these do not taste quite like chocolate chip cookies in my opinion because they are harder and chewier than chocolate chips cookies and the dough flavor is not quite …
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 …

Betty Crocker Super Moist Milk Chocolate Cake Mix
In my lifetime, I’ve tried a variety of cake mixes, and I suppose that at various times, different brands have been my favorite. Lately, I’ve been purchasing Betty Crocker Super Moist Milk Chocolate Cake Mix off and on.
For one thing, Betty Crocker is an industry leader. There’s …
Eclipse Gum
I chew gum constantly because I like my mouth to be fresh. My favorite brand is Eclipse by Wrigley’s. Eclipse has many flavor options, such as spearmint, peppermint, and polar ice. All the flavors are good.
What I love about this gum is how long the flavor …
Frito Lay All in ONe Party Mix

Jelly Belly Very Cherry Pudding Snacks
I’ve recently become intrigued by the offerings in the pudding aisle. In addition to the traditional chocolate, vanilla, tapioca, and butterscotch, I now see daring new fruit-flavored puddings like Very Cherry in packages of four cups. They’re very brightly colored, and, while I wasn’t expecting to be blown away, …
KRAFT Pizza
I don’t like thin crust pizzaz, so when I saw something called Naturally Rising Pizza at our grocery store, I immediately wanted to check it out. “Naturally Rising” promised good, soft, “bready” crust. It is a KRAFT product, and there were several varieties of it available. The one I …
McVitie’s Medley Digestives Cereal Bars
The McVitie’s Medley range are basically cereal bars which have been combined with two kinds of Hobnobs (chocolate or peanut) —“ and in this case we have cereal bars combined with McVitie’s chocolate digestive biscuits. I think these are really yummy. These are like a cheater’s version …
Selecta Fruit Salad Ice Cream
Another flavor I have tried under Selecta is their Fruit Salad. This is a conventional Filipino dessert. Selecta made it a flavor of its ice cream given the popularity of this food. Last Christmas, I bought half gallon. Together with another flavor, this was the least favorite and it took …
Clancy’s Pretzel Rings
ALDI Food Market stores stopped carrying Clancy’s Pretzel Sticks a couple of months back and replaced them with Clancy’s Pretzel Rings. Now I liked the sticks because they were always fresh and salty, and I figured that although these pretzels were a different shape, they were still sold under …
Combos Snacks - Nacho Cheese Pretzel
Combos Snacks - Nacho Cheese Pretzel differs slightly from the cheddar cheese variety, although both are fairly similar. The difference rests in the type of cheese used. Whereas cheddar cheese is used in the cheddar variety, with this variety, nacho cheese fills in the interior of the mini-pretzel. What …

I am a full time student in the morning and full time blogger during at night so I really need to stay focus and alert during this time. But sometimes, I can’t help myself but to feel dizzy and that is not cool at all. Time is gold and …
Mountain Holler
I’m normally a Mountain Dew drinker. But, brand name soda is getting expensive lately and I can’t always find it on sale.
Looking to stay within a budget, I have once again switched back to a more generic version; Mountain Holler.
The thing I like about Mountain Holler (sold here at …
Leslie’s Baked Cheezy Puffs
Leslie’s Products have been popular in the country now for quite sometime. I remember still enjoying a pack of clover chips at school, or even at home watching tv. Their flavor is unique and they even made smaller packs of chips sold only at one(1)peso per pack! Yes, this …
Trader Joe’s Kalamata Olive Hummus
I was intrigued by this hummus because I love the taste of kalamata olives. These are large purplish-black almond-shaped Greek olives that have a lovely texture that is similar to meat. Trader Joe’s hummus tends to have a pasty, rather than creamy, texture to it, which is not something …
V8 V-Fusion and Energy: Peach and Mango Energy Drink
V8 is one of those lovely brands that I grew up with as a younger girl. Initially, it was mostly known for it’s vegetable juice, but as the years passed they have come along with fruit juices and energy drinks, and some in between. I personally enjoy their products, …
Little Debbie Banana Nut Muffins
Little Debbie Banana Nut Muffins are really quite delicious! The banana flavor is rich and present in every bite that I take out of the muffin. The flavor is just so real and fresh that I think I prefer these banana-flavored muffins to bananas themselves! Simply scrumptious! The nut …
Dark Chocolate M & M’s
I congratulate M & M’s for designing a dark chocolate bite-sized candy. Not only is dark chocolate supposedly healthier for us to eat becuase it has less sugar and caffine than that of regular chocolate, but I personally think it tastes much better. It has a deeper …
