When I go out to the mall with friends or on beach trips with the family I like to have Kentucky Fried Chicken (more fondly known as KFC) at times and one of the many side dishes they offer with their standard fries and fried chicken meal is cole …
Tiramisu Meltdown Red Ribbon Cake
I never really liked cakes, and sweet stuffs. I bought this cake in a red ribbon store to celebrate with our friends and thought it would add glamour to our festivity. Having know that specialty cakes in Red Ribbon are a bit expensive, not for a regular get together …
Warm Delights Make a Great Gift, Comfort Food
Recently, I have been giving myself the treat of a Warm Delights snack cake on Saturday afternoons. It’s a once a week treat that is inexpensive and tastes good, but last Saturday I came up with a new reason to keep them on my shelf–emergency comfort food.
My upstairs neighbor …
Lucky Me Instant Pancit Canton
Whenever I have this craving for chinese noodles or locally known as pancit canton, I just grab a couple of packs of Lucky Me Instant Pancit Canton. This certainly satisfies my craving instantly.

Food Lion Natural Spring Water
I wanted to buy bottled water from the grocery store day. The problem with that is, it is always so expensive. I never want to pay that much for it. I do not trust the tap water that I have at home for …
Rustler’s Burger
I would say the most common Microwave Food I eat is probably Burgers. You can pick up so many different brands of Micro Burgers and I would say that Burgers are probably my most favourite food in a certain sense, well fast food anyway. Not the most healthiest food …
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts
I don’t like donuts, or doughnuts very much. The truth is i find them too fancy, they are sweetened breads with icing on top and nothing more. I have never craved for anything that is donut or looks like a donut until a krispy kreme shop has opened here …
L’oven Fresh Caramel Shortbread and Almond Sugar Cookies
The L’oven Fresh Caramel Shortbread and Almond Sugar Cookies come in a circular platter at ALDI Food Market stores for three dollars and ninety-nine cents. The platter consists of two “sections”. There’s the outer, circular ring which is where the caramel shortbread cookies sit and then there’s an inner …
Duinkerken Gluten Free Biscuit Baking Mix
Duinkerken gluten-free biscuit baking mix is the best one of its kind I have tried so far and for a number of reasons. The biscuits are easy to make, have a great taste and superb texture, and the price is comparable to other brands.
When I first purchased the brand, …
Girl Scout Cookies
There is something about a Girl Scout cookie that I find highly addictive. In all honesty, their cookies are probably one of the few cookies that I will allow myself to indulge in on a yearly basis. Perhaps it is the fact that I can only purchase …
Lipton Tea Bags
I once tried a box of tea bags to make my iced tea and I am here to tell you that there is definitely a big difference in the taste of different tea bags. I can often get away with getting the cheaper brands at the grocery store because …
Wylwood Sliced Beets
Wylwood Sliced Beets are canned cooked beets that you simply open, warm up and eat. They are sweet and juicy; I suppose if you just boil fresh beets with some sugar you will achieve similar result. While I do like beets and make several dishes with them, I am …
Bornvita
Bornvita is the name of the health drink, which is used by many families in India. It is said that the bornvita contains all the nutrition values, which are needed for the growing kids and also for the young generation. I don’t know about the nutritional values …
Marie Callender’s Cheese Chicken White Meat and Broccoli Over Rice
I didn’t discover the Marie Callender’s cheese chicken white meat and Broccoli over rice until I noticed my mom purchasing them. She would go to Publix because they would always have a buy one get one free deal going on. Of course, I had to purchase mine from super …

Simply Cereal All Swiss (munch more muesli) is the perfect breakfast cereal for health advocates. Apart from whole grain muesli, it contains a variety of fruits, nuts and even pumpkin seeds. It is cholesterol-free, low in fat and high in fiber.
All Swiss goes well with milk and yoghurt, and …
Jack and Jill - Cheese Curls
As a kid one of my favorite ‘junk foods’ is Jack and Jill Cheese Curls. And mind you that was decades ago. Back then I just loved the cheesy flavor of Cheese Curls. Now I already have my own son and he just loves it. He discovered it when …
Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Neapolitan
I will not be purchasing Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Neapolitan a second time because all three flavors that are a part of this triple combination are really quite bland compared to their premium ice cream counterparts. The vanilla is not nearly as good as the all-natural vanilla, the …
Classic Kitchen Deluxe Mac and Cheese Dinner
I was shopping at my local Dollar Tree when I found Classic Kitchen’s Deluxe Mac and Cheese Dinner in a box. I’m a huge fan of macaroni and cheese, and the picture on the box looked appetizing, so I bought a box. I usually buy Kraft Macaroni …
Payless Jumbo Hotdog by Mekeni Foods Corporation

I saw the Payless …
Beer Chips
Beer Chips was such a cute little novelty that when I saw them on the store shelves, I knew I had to buy them. Maybe it’s just me, but the thought of chips flavored like beer was just something I couldn’t pass up. The chips themselves come in a …
Oscar Meyer Premium Beef Franks
While I definitely prefer the Oscar Meyer XXL Beef Franks over the Oscar Meyer Premium Beef Franks, these hot dogs are really not at all bad. By no means is this a perfect or near perfect hot dog, but I have definitely had much worse, like Nathan’s brand hot …
Kettle Brand Baked Potato Chips
Kettle Brand Baked Potato Chips are alright, although I really do not care for them as much as other potato chips that I have tried. One of the definite advantages that these potato chips have to offer is there is a serious reduction in fat, so these potato chips …
Coke with Lime
Soft drink leaders Coca-Cola and Pepsi have tried a lot of different flavors over the years. Most of them haven’t worked. Some, however, have stuck. Cherry flavor, for example. Vanilla Coke, on the other hand, although its lasted a few years (longer than most of …

With my busy schedules each day, I seldom get the chance to go around shopping for groceries. I just have to buy one week’s supply over the weekend.
One item I would never forget to buy is …
Kraft Mac N Cheese
My family loves original Kraft Mac N Cheese. I have attempted to bring home the store brands in the past but my family nor I feel they have the same taste. I believe the secret is in the cheese sauce, I think that is where the store brands dont …
Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts - Frosted Raspberry
I do not at all care for this flavor of pop-tarts for a couple of reasons. The raspberry flavor is just too gosh darn sweet - it tastes a lot more like super-sweet candy than it does natural fruit leading me to believe that this flavor has been artificially …
Dizon Farms Caesar Salad Kit
Preparing your own caesar salad is as fun as eating it right after. I was able to easily prepare and relish one through Dizon Farms Caesar Salad Kit. Buying separate ingredients is costly and time consuming; Dizon Farms eliminate these troubles. Everything I need is already included in the …
Jack-N-the-Box Sourdough Cheeseburger
Recently I had the chance to try the sour dough cheeseburger from the Jack-n-the-Box chain of fast food restaurants. I’ve had a similar burger from Rally’s and Hardees in the past so I thought it sounded like something familiar and yet a little different. The burger sits in between …
Ribena Blackcurrant & Strawberry Fruit Drink
Ribena is a popular juice drink available in almost every grocery store and supermarkets here in Singapore. It is also a choice of drink for kids.

Stash Blackcurrant Iced Tea bags (gallon size)
I’ve long been a fan of flavored black teas, and black currant in particular. Lately I have been trying various brands to see if I can find an affordable replacement for Twinings brand, who changed their formula much to their fans dissatisfaction.
Stash has been a brand …
Campbell’s Light Chicken Mushroom Barley Condensed Soup
Whenever winter comes around and I’m in the mood for soup, I always grab this variety. It is one of the very best varieties that Campbell’s makes.
This soup contains mushrooms and barley as their basic ingredient. But instead of being placed in a vegetable or beef broth, the …
Walgreens Natural Almonds
One of the “healthy” nutritional changes I have no problem with making at all is the addition of almonds to my diet. Among the health benefits almonds offer are that they help to lower LDL “bad” cholesterol, are high in antioxidants and may assist in combating against strokes …
Millville Corn Flakes
One of the most difficult decisions you can make in the morning is what to eat for breakfast. There are just so many options. Do you go for cereal? For toast? Cold pizza? The options are limitless. One suggestions that I have is …
Kazim’s Place Potato Salad
I love potato salad but I have a special technique, if you want to call it that, when it comes to making potato salad. Whenever I buy food outside potato salad is always on my list of food to scout out before I decide to look at rice or …
Big Red Gum
We don’t need to introduce Big Red Gum as we can find it on every checkout line. There is nothing better than a piece of Big Red Gum on a hot summer afternoon. Big Red Gum has become notorious with that bold cinnamon flavor.
I love Big Red Gum because …
Buitoni Three Cheese Tortellini
I didn’t like this form of frozen pasta very much at all. First of all, it’s supposed to contain the flavors of three cheeses: Parmesan, Ricotta and Ramano. I tasted very little cheese whatsoever. In fact, had it not been for the sauce and the cheese that I myself …
Heinz Oxtail Soup
Some people are really picky with their food and the slightest of things can put them off, so telling people that I enjoy Heinz Oxtail soup often makes people cringe. From the outside it looks quite intriguing, almost like a thick gravy sauce with small bits of meat inside. …
Black Cherry Shasta Cola
Out of all the sodas I have digested in my time, Black Cherry Shasta Cola is one of the best I’ve ever tasted. I’ve never in my time found another flavor of soda so very attuned to my soul. It has a dark mellow kind of taste …
Bake and Churn’s Ice Cream Cakes
We often go to Robinson Supermarket to buy groceries and other stuffs and we always see this Bake and Churn Ice Cream Cake’s stall at the entrance part of the supermarket. I never tried buying any of these ice cream cakes because I thought to myself …
Easy Pop Microwaveable Popcorn in Butterlicious Flavor
I love eating snacks while watching TV or movies. Sometimes I just grab a pack of cheese puffs but most of the time I love to cook microwaveable popcorn instead. I feel that the calories in plain butter popcorns are lesser than that of cheese snacks.
I walked around the …
GV sour cream and onion chips

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 …
Jell-o Gelatin - Cherry/Black Cherry
Jell-o Gelatin - Cherry/Black Cherry is a deliciously rich treat to have and I am very pleased with the flavor of this fruit gelatin. Both the cherry and the black cherry taste precisely as I expected and so the flavor is really very authentic and natural. The texture of …
Mr. Dee’s French Fries
Product Description: Bag of frozen crinkle-cut style French fries. I recently found them on sale at one of our local stores for 99 cents but I think they normally sell for about $1.50 per bag.
What I liked about this product: Usually, if I spend so little on fries, I …
Breyers Extremely Creamy Chocolate
Breyers Extremely Creamy Chocolate is a definite improvement over the regular chocolate variety, although I still believe that there is work that needs to be done before I would consider Breyers to be the company that I would turn to for the most delicious chocolate ice cream available at …
Weight Watchers Smart Ones Lasagna Florentine Frozen Dinner
Lasagna is a favorite Italian-American food of nearly everyone I know, including me. So I was eager to try this frozen lasagna. I wasn’t sure what lasagna “Florentine” was, but I soon saw that it was one that included spinach. I like the inclusion of spinach in this dish …
Coffee House Ready to drink coffee
I know I already have attested and admitted how much I enjoy drinking a cup or a glass of cold coffee or frappucino. Well it is not quite obvious that even coffee mixes in tetra packs have been tried by me. Just this morning, I tried the “coffeehouse” brand …
