Banquet Frozen Dinner Turkey with mashed potatoes and peas
I purchased this frozen dinner, what would have been called a “tv dinner” when I was a kid out of a fit of nostalgia. My husband was out of town and I wanted to relive a taste from my youth. The brand I remember from childhood did …
Arby’s Curly Fries
Arby’s Curly Fries are something I’ve had several times now. I should say that I love good French fries. I tend to like mine tender and well seasoned, so in actuality these curly fries are a little different.
Over time as I’ve eaten Arby’s Curly Fries, they’ve been …
Nutrimalt
I love Malta drinks even though most people around me can’t get used to the taste. Usually I will go for Malta. It is the only brand that I consider “nice” - but that’s mainly because I had never tried other brands before.
Few days …
Michelina’s Penne with Chicken
Michelina’s Penne with Chicken is a frozen meal that I like to have every now and again. I think the pasta and chicken combination works pretty well and results in a meal that offers a good, satisfying flavor. The pasta comes out of the microwave with a tender texture …
Dymatize Mega Gainer energy drink
Hubby and I bought this energy drink last two weeks ago. Our main purpose is to gain weight since I got worried that he is under weight. I understand that he works in a Call Center and the time of work is in shift so sometimes, when we do …
Stouffer’s Family Size Lasagna
I am not a good home cook. I prefer packaged foods simply because it is easier to prepare. I don’t have to go to all the trouble. The only problem is that I like the taste of homemade lasagna better. Since I don’t have the time nor the …
Deerfield Farms Shredded Cheese
It was pretty cold out yesterday and I’m still fighting a cold so I decided to make chili for a late lunch/dinner.
I had most of the ingredients but, just before I started making the chili, I remembered my wife likes shredded cheese on hers and we didn’t have any …
Donardos Chili Garlic Sauce
I bought this delicious chili garlic sauce at the Landmark Mall in Makati City because I wanted to take it along with me in India because there is nothing like this there even if India is the land of great chilies.
What I like in Donardos Chili garlic sauce is …
Maggi Magic Sarap All-In-One Seasoning Granules
I am a terrible cook. I usually prepare easy-to-cook food at home. I can cook fried food and some vegetables in a matter of minutes. I have tried several times to try other dishes but to no avail. I just couldn’t get the exact taste for those dishes. It …
International delight: Almond Joy Creamer
As a coffee drinker I like to use liquid creamer instead of the standard powdered version of it. For the simple fact that its blends better than the power does. Not only does it blend better but it at times sweetens the coffee, enhances the flavor or better yet …
Nesquik Strawberry Flavored Powder
Nesquik Strawberry flavored powder is a delicious way to get milkl in a person’s diet. While it does have some sugar in it compared to other starwberry flavorings the Nesquik Strawberry mix contains 25% less sugar. The product contains vitamin C, vitamin B6, Biotin, zinc, copper and manganese. The …
Twistos Baked Snack Bites Parmesan Garlic Flavor
In a previous review, I highly praised the asiago-flavored Twistos Baked Snack Bites. I felt the snack bites excelled when it came to both flavor and texture. Naturally then, I was excited to try the other flavors, in the hopes that they would be just as delightfully good. I …
Nestle Butterfinger Stixx
I first encountered Nestle’s Butterfinger Stixx when I was on vacation in Alabama, USA a few years back. It was interesting to see these popular bars now in a stick form. There were different varieties available but I choose the Butterfinger Stixx from the group first.
I recently had the …
Charles Lunch Chocolate
I don’t usually buy the cheap Trinidadian chocolates, since I don’t like the way some of them taste. However, recently I was craving chocolate and since this was the only one I could afford at the time in the small supermarket I went to, I decided to buy it …
Sari Amaretto Arino
I love a good quality liqueur, with Disaronno being my absolute favourite and something I could drink every day. The problem is that Disaronno is expansive so not something I want to buy all the time, I decided to try other brands of Amaretto to bring down …
Pizza Power Mackay
If you live in Mackay in sunny Queensland of Australia then you will have to ditch the traditional pizza shops. Pizza Power in my opinion is the best pizza shop in town. For a start, they are made on the spot to order (just like the other pizza shops) …
Al nor Fresh Garlic and Ginger Paste
Every time I am making an Indian dishes I always abhor that moment when I have to cut into small pieces the garlic because I simply cannot stand the awful smell of the garlic. I decided to try buying a garlic and ginger paste in one of the …
Dr. Pepper Soda
How does anyone drink a Dr. Pepper Soda? I’d really like to know because I can’t stand this beverage. Now, I love their commercials. I grew up with ‘he’s pepper, she’s a pepper, wouldn’t you like to be a pepper, too?’ Unfortunately for the Dr. …
Organicville Ketchup
Just last week, when I was having dinner at a friend’s house, I noticed that he had put a bottle of this ketchup, Organicville Ketchup, on the table. I had never seen this kind of ketchup before, although it should not have surprised me that organic ketchup existed. I …
Bakery Fresh Peanut Butter Cookies
The weather is turning icy around here, so we went to the Dollar General to stock up on things that we might need if we can’t get out of the house for a few days. Of course these essentials included comfort/junk food. Peanut butter cookies is one of the …
Gallo Salame
I recall buying Gallo Salame in the past, but it had been many years since I made my most recent purchase. I was in the mood for some good sub sandwiches and decided to purchase this Italian Dry Salame to add to the flavor. This product is …
Maggi Coconut milk powder mix
I recently found this very cool product Maggi coconut mix in the supermarket which can be a very good alternative to the coconut powder placed in cans and bottles because it is not only very easy to use and I don’t have to worry using a can opener but …
Mrs. Freshley’s Easter: Cottontail Snowballs
Although Mrs. Freshley’s Easter: Cottontail Snowballs are only around for about one month of the year, I find that to be okay because there is nothing special about these snowballs. I can purchase snowballs at any time of the year and they are pretty much identical to these. The …
Safeway Enriched White Bread
I would not recommend trying this bread no matter how inexpensive it may be compared to some of the other brand names. I thought by the looks of it that it would be comparable to like a Weber’s enriched white bread. I was disappointed when I bought …
Kiki fruit toffee by Kras
I have this anecdote from the time I was little about these candies. I was 5 or 6 and I went to the church with my parents. It was a hot sunny day. My relative who was 8 then, was with me. We started feeling bored so we weren’t …
Kraft Macaroni & Cheese
Kraft Macaroni & Cheese is one of those name brand store items that everyone has heard about, everyone knows about and just about everyone has tried it. I personally think that Kraft Macaroni & Cheese is disgusting, but that is just my opinion. I think that you could probably …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Cherry Cheesecake
Although this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Cherry Cheesecake is not nearly as good as a cheesecake that is baked fresh or purchased already made from the grocery store, for the price that this item is sold at Super Wal*Mart, it is actually a decent deal. The cherry cheesecake, …
Great Value Family Size Tea
I have recently tried Great Value Family Size Tea, and I love it. I bought a smaller box, priced at $1.25, containing 24 individually wrapped tea bags. There is a large box available as well, twice the size if not more, and I think I will get that one …
Diet Rite Cola
Diet-Rite as been my favorite soft drink since the day I first learned how different it is from other Colas. I was in a Weight Watchers meeting when the leader told us Diet Rite contains no calories, no caffeine, no carbohydrates and no sodium. I was …
Pepperidge Farm Milano Double Chocolate Cookies
Pepperidge Farm Milano Double Chocolate Cookies have been around for quite a while, but it so happens that I have gotten to try them only recently. My husband brought home a 7.5 oz pack, telling me that these used to be one of his favorite cookies. The picture of …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Homemade Chocolate
Although I am normally not overly crazy when it comes to chocolate, Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Homemade Chocolate is really a terrific taste sensation. The chocolate flavor is quite rich and authentic, and the ice cream itself is fairly creamy! I like to add hot fudge on top …
Krusteaz Blueberry Complete Pancake Mix
Krusteaz Blueberry Complete Pancake Mix is great! I am not a fan of restaurant pancakes and have always made them from scratch so they always end up being a week-end treat. With Krusteaz Blueberry Complete Pancake Mix I can make them quick and easy …
Fiber One Bran Cereal
I wanted to write a review because the fiber one bran cereal has become one of my favorite cereals. I bought it because of the high fiber content. Almost all of us are not getting enough fiber so I though this would be a great addition with 14g per …
Lunch Buddies Strawberry Applesauce Cups
The Lunch Buddies Strawberry Applesauce Cups come in a six pack and the cups themselves are four ounces. ALDI Food Market stores carry this product for one dollar and twenty-nine cents. The blending of strawberry and apple flavoring works, in my opinion, because neither flavor completely dominates the other. …
Libby’s Vienna Sausages
I like Libby’s Vienna Sausages, they are tasty and soft, an excellent choice for a quick snack. The tiny can of 6 small sausages costs under 50 cents. The sausages look like hotdogs cut in half. They are made of chicken, pork, and beef; very tender and moderately salty. …
Kroger Mac N’ Cheese
One of the best cures that I’ve found for a hangover is the carb and cheese combo found in a box of Mac N’ Cheese. It’s cheap, quick and usually does the job, especially with a bottle of any sports drink at it’s side. Because of this …
Santitas White Corn Tortilla Chips
Santitas White Corn Tortilla Chips make me wish that I would be more daring when I shop for chips at the store. My sister loves tortilla chips and she’s always buying them and then bringing me the remnants. Recently, she brought over a bag of leftovers from …
Teriyaki Beef Jerky from Albertsons
The real teriyaki flavor is there with this beef jerky. But the content of the packet was less and contrary to size of the packet the number of pieces was less. I use beef jerky as a usual snack and this teriyaki beef jerky is finished in a day. …
Pillsbury Fudge Supreme Cheesecake Swirl Brownie Mix
I’m an absolute lover of chocolate brownies, but sometimes I need to shake up both my taste buds and stomach. I don’t go too far off the beaten path, but when I do it’s only for Pillsbury fudge supreme cheesecake swirl brownie mix.
I love cheesecake and I love chocolate …
Goya Cream White Chocolate
Just for fun I bought Goya Dark chocolate and Goya Cream White Chocolate one time. I love dark chocolate of Goya, it do not taste that strong now. What I am about to share a review is on Cream White and let us see if we have the same …
Trader Joe’s Organic Cracker Assortment
Not many years ago, foods labeled “Organic” were considered odd foods only consumed by health food “nuts” who don’t mind essentially tasteless edibles.
But times have changed, thank goodness, and now the masses are beginning to appreciate the health benefits of organic items, many of which actually taste great! …
Maggie noodles and soup
I often make maggie noodles at home. It just takes few minutes to prepare the dish. They also provide tastemaker along with the noodles. This is very handy for all moms and most of the children would love to eat maggie noodles. All we need to do is boil …
Pataks Curry Sauces
I do enjoy a curry, I like to cook them and I like to go out and have one as well but if I did that all the time then I would be out of pocket and probably very overweight. I suppose this is why it’s so great that …
The White Hat Frozen Yogurt
Each time I see this shop - The White Hat, I feel really curious about why is it called the white hat. It is intriguing to see a white colored store in a crowded and busy mall. Every time I pass by I thought of figuring out what’s in …
Frontera Texas Original Taco Skillet Sauce
Frontera Texas Original Taco Skillet Sauce with mild red chile and cumin is a pre made skillet sauce that comes in a packet. The idea behind this product is you use this instead of canned, jarred or powdered sauce to add flavor to meat. The instructions are very …
McDonald’s southern style chicken
I’m not sure how new McDonalds’ Southern Style chicken is but I tried it for the first time a week ago and was very disappointed. It’s a breakfast sandwich that has a piece of chicken strip in between a flaky biscuit. For something that’s suppose to be southern, where’s …
Food Club Brand Cinnamon French Toast Sticks
Product Description: Box of frozen cinnamon French Toast sticks. I found them at our local Piggly Wiggly grocery store for around $2.
