The only time when I drink Coca cola is when I eat pizza, I don’t know why but those two just go perfectly together if you ask me. I just don’t know how can people eat pizza and drink beer. When I was younger I used to experiment and …

I am in the belief that frozen, micro-waved pancakes are an oddity. Often they end up cemented or soggy. While grocery shopping recently, these frozen treats caught my eye: Strawberry Fruit-filled Pancakes by Purity Baking Company.
The box is cheery. The setting on the picture depicts a home-like …

Ok, I’m not sure if it’s because the people working at our local pizza hut are a bunch of idiots or if the commercials lie about how great the new Panormis Pizza is. But, whichever the case, I’m seriously disappointed in it.
When my wife and I saw the commercials …

The one that I particularly liked …

The Rocher is a ball …

Arnott’s Shapes is …

This is a pretty average Pasta Side that could have been more flavorful and enjoyable if more carrots had been used. The carrot pieces are more like carrot particles. They’re super small and because they’re so small, they really don’t contribute much flavor to this Pasta Side. That’s disappointing …

Having grown up as a life saver junkie, I tended to stay away from most other similar products and hard candies. Recently, though, I was given Brach’s Butterscotch Hard Candy and I sure did enjoy it.

It’s a …
