Smuckers Hot Fudge
I have recently developed a love for chocolate covered strawberries. I used to melt chocolate over the strawberries and allow it to harden but I just stared using smuckers hot fudge and have been very pleased with the results. Smuckers hot fudge is very inexpensive and tastes great on …
Betty Crocker Au gratin Potatoes
We had steak for dinner last night and one of the side dishes my wife made with it was Betty Crocker’s Au Gratin potatoes. Those actually turned out to be one of the better things we ate.
I liked how you could make them right in the oven with the …
Pocari Sweat
Pocari Sweat is a popular sports drink created by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.. I tried this for the first time when I was in Hong Kong. It tastes sweet. I really liked this drink and carried with me around because of its ingredients such as potassium ions and sodium …
Krispy Creme Doughnuts and Coffee in Pensacola Florida
Last week, me and my husband drove to Pensacola for my Physical Exam as required for my immigration papers. After that appointment, we got hungry and decided to grab some doughnuts. We had to use our GPS to find where it is and it wasn’t far from the clinic. …
Lipton Clear Green Tea
With the trend now directed to healthy living, a lot of products mushroomed in the market. A proven healthy drink way back to those what you call it era, is the tea. And you’ve heard of the regular tea, black, white, green, oolong, Earl Grey teas.
Personally, I am not …
Country Crock Honey Butter
It’s sort of ironic that I use Country Crock honey butter because my butter of choice is Land O’ Lakes. I don’t put the honey butter in any meal I’m preparing, just on toasts and biscuits.
The thing I like about the Country Crock honey butter is that it …
Maestrani Swiss organic chocolate raspberry
I must say that I was expecting much more of this chocolate. When you read Swiss on the chocolate wrapping you immediately know you are going to have a treat, especially if the wrapping itself looks very expensive too. Bio is a synonym for health in my head so …
Cadbury Star Bar
Cadbury’s Star Bar is one of my favourite chocolate bars. Before writing this review, I nipped onto Wikipedia to remind myself when they first came out as I have been buying these regularly since the 1980s. Interestingly, it pointed out that this Star Bar only exists because …
Bama (Real) Mayonnaise
I have always been a die-hard Hellman’s mayonnaise fan, but after trying Bama brand mayonnaise, I am hooked. We were shopping at our health food grocery store, EarthFare, and I realized we were out of mayonnaise. EarthFare only sells products with no artificial additives, so when we went to …
Vitamin Water
The Vitamin Water line produces a variety of beverages that make great alternatives to those individuals who are tired of carbonated beverages or water. These beverages are produced by Glaceau, which is a subsidiary of Coca-Cola. Vitamin Water has less calories than sodas and also provides an …
President Emmental Slices
I have has sandwiches today made with President Emmental Slices and they have been delicious. I like all types of cheeses and Emmental has been nice to have for a change. Because of its mild and creamy taste I imagine children would like this. You get …
Wheat Thins Ranch Crackers
My new favorite snack is cheese and crackers and my favorite crackers to eat with my cheese is Wheat Thins Ranch Crackers. They have a delicious ranch flavor to them that just makes my mouth water as soon as I open the box of crackers and smell the ranch …
Baja Beef Chalupas from Taco Bell
I am addicted to Baja Beef Chalupas from Taco Bell. It’s horrible. They have too many calories, and I can never eat just one. The substandard ground beef and fiesta salsa lure me in every time I go to Taco Bell.
In the late 90s, they also …
GT diet cola
GT diet cola is a product that is sold by Aldis. It is a product that is sold in a twelve pack. It is very inexpensive I think it retails for around 2.49 for a twelve pack. This is a very affordable price for a twelve …
Recheks Food Pride Baked Chicken
I wanted to go to KFC last night for dinner and ended up in the lobby of the restaurant. But, after discovering a chicken dinner would cost me about $30, I ended up leaving (what the heck is with the high prices at that place) and went to Recheks …
Valley View Garlic Mashed Potatoes
We had steak last night and, to go with it, made some garlic mashed potatoes from the brand Valley View; a brand I believe we ended up buying at our local Aldi store or some other discount grocer.
I have had other products from Valley View with some mixed results …
Yoplait Yogurt
I tried some of this yogurt the other day for breakfast. I have been trying to loose weight and decided to try some of this. It is really good for you. I really liked it a lot to. It taste really good. It’s thick and creamy. It also fills …
Special K Protein Meal Bar - Double Chocolate
I’m not the healthiest food eater in the world. In fact, I’m far from it. I’m a persnickety eater, especially with foods that say they are healthy. I need that old school taste that I grew up with. I have, however, found a couple of …
Sainsbury’s Harvest Grain Continental Bread Rolls
I love brown bread and obviously it has more fibre and health vitamins than white bread, but some brown rolls can taste a little bland and are a chore to eat. These on the other hand, are delicious and every bit as nice as a white continental bread …
Homemade Hot Chocolate
I am a devoted fan of hot chocolate, and I will drink it all year long no matter what the temperature is. And sure there are plenty of brands of instant hot chocolate packed away in paper packages that need nothing more than to just add water. However, ever …
Rustlers Chicken Sandwich
I do like my Fast food and although I know it isn’t exactly good for you, it is quick, tasty and a little bit of a Hot snack to eat. The Rustlers range of food has been out for quite a while now and although there is now a …
St. Mary’s Plantain Chips (Original)
Ever since I first tasted it some years ago, I have loved plantain chips. However, what I soon realized was that not every brand of plantain chips tasted good. After trying the particular brand of plantain chips, I found that St. Mary’s Plantain Chips is one of the …
Carnation Instant Breakfast Chocolate Drink: Complete Nutritional Drink
I purchased the Carnation instant breakfast chocolate drink because I had started a fitness regimen, and I wanted to incorporate a healthy breakfast drink. I’m not really into diets or diet drinks, but the Carnation instant breakfast chocolate drink didn’t appear to be a diet drink, and I love …
Fudgsicles
We buy fudgsicles as a treat when they are on sale. Usually we can get a box of them for around three dollars. Each box contains eight Fudgsicles, so it is a fairly good price if you get them when there’s a special.
I love the fudgey taste of these …
Great Value Pasta Sauce
I came home last night once again expecting leftovers for dinner. However, my wife apparently had other plans (unlike me, she has no problem throwing out uneaten food every Sunday) and, instead, was making spaghetti and meatballs.
Whenever I make spaghetti, I prefer making my sauce rather than using sauce …
Stouffer’s Chicken ala King with Rice (frozen entree)
I was a bit leery about trying this particular meal, as I’d never had Chicken ala King before. I’ve been told that it’s very similar to the filling that is found in chicken pot pies. But the picture on the cover of the box didn’t …
Breyers Cherry Vanilla
Breyers Cherry Vanilla is both a pleasurable experience and a disappointing experience. By that, I mean one flavor real excels and tastes delicious while the other flavor really comes up short and leaves my taste buds wondering just what happened. Had both flavors been exceptionally good, this ice cream …
Simply Orange Orange Juice
While everyone knows of Tropicana Orange Juice, there is a new one out that exceeds Tropicana in taste and price and pulp. Simply Orange orange juice has such a better taste than tropicana you would think that you just finished squeezing the oranges yourself. Its 100% natural …
Pillsbury Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls
If you want to re-create the experience of buying hot, doughy, decadent Cinnabon rolls that you enjoy at shopping malls–then look no further than your dairy section at the supermarket. Pillsbury is right on the money with their latest culinary creation: Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls. With only …
Tropicana Tropical Punch
I’m nursing a seasonal cold, so I went to the store to find that orange juice, normally a little higher than other juices, was jacked up suspiciously higher than normal. Instead of selling in to the cold-time mania, I opted to try some Tropicana fruit punch instead. Two quarts …
ChocoLava Chocolate Drink
This product really gets a chuckle out of me. Why? It is because this is being endorsed by our local artist named John Lloyd Cruz with a tag line: “No more kid stuff for me.” That is really funny because this ChocoLava instant 3-in-1 chocolate drink is nothing but …
Healthy Choice Lobster Cheese Ravioli
Healthy Choice Lobster Cheese Ravioli is a frozen entree that you can probably find in the freezer section of your local grocery store or supermarket. In particular, the Lobster Cheese Ravioli frozen entree is one of their line of all natural entrees that do not contain preservatives. …
Betty Crocker - Triple Chunk Brownies
Betty Crocker - Triple Chunk Brownies are not for me. Although the brownies are most certainly rich in authentic chocolate flavor and while the brownies came out and stayed quite moist for several weeks, what I did not care very much for was the big chunks of Hershey’s kisses …
International Delight Coffee Whitener French Vanilla
This French Vanilla coffee whitener is quite good. It is fat free with 30 calories per tablespoon (7g of carbs, 5g of sugars) and tastes quite good. You make instant or percolated coffee and pour this product in as you would with milk or cream and it’s quite good. …
Del Monte Fruit Chillers Sorbet Frosty Peach
The Del Monte Fruit Chillers product line is a favorite of mine during the summer time. When summer arrives at my front doorstep, I start buying Del Monte Fruit Chillers because ice cold frozen fruit treats really taste unbelievably good and refreshing on a steaming summer day. Take this …
Smucker’s Cider Apple Butter
Smucker’s Cider Apple Butter is simply delightful in both flavor and texture. It is, I think, my favorite flavor to spread on top of toast and bagels. The cider apple butter is quite rich and delicious in flavor, and the butter part not only gives the spread some additional …
Biscotti Baileys Cream Liqueur
Baileys is definitely my drink of choice and I love the majority of new flavours which are available now. I have recently however sampled the Biscotti flavour and must say I’m not completely impressed with it, the flavour seeming extremely harsh compared to other Baileys and spoiling the …
Blue Bunny FrozFruit Strawberries & Cream
Blue Bunny FrozFruit Strawberries & Cream is a pretty enjoyable treat that I like to have every now and then. I find the combination of strawberry and cream to be a wonderful one that works really well and offers my taste buds a lot of flavor to appreciate. The …
Friendly Farms French Onion Dip
Friendly Farms French onion dip is the standard Aldi’s brand only available at Aldi’s Stores where everything is sold at a discount. It is the typical French onion dip, made of sour cream with onions and other flavorings. A two tablespoon serving has 70 calories.
It …
McDonald’s sausage biscuits
McDonald’s sausage biscuits are a great breakfast food. The local McDonald’s in Jamestown, Tennessee sells them one for a dollar or two for a dollar and ten cents. Can’t eat two? Don’t worry you can freeze the second one for another day when you are in a hurry and …
Pepperidge Farms - Vegetables in Pastry Broccoli in cheese sauce
I picked up Pepperidge Farms Vegetables in Pastry Broccoli in Cheese Sauce, by chance at my local supermarket.
I was looking for something different and healthy to have for supper, and these two pastry-pockets seemed to fit the bill.
We don’t get a lot of Pepperidge Farm products in my small …
New Zealand Vegetarian Cheddar Cheese
I have been eating New Zealand vegetarian cheddar cheese for as long as I can remember. It’s a popular and standard cheese in our country and it is perfect to use in almost any dish you are making or to just eat by itself or with a dash of …
PC Teensy Weensy Blueberry Muffins
These muffins are a hit with my kids. Both my one-year-old and my seven-year-old enjoy them, and I have to admit to sneaking some when they are not around.
I have tried other mini muffins from other stores, specifically the muffins from the Sobey’s supermarket, but they are hard and …
Nestle Coffee Mate
I like drinking a lot of coffee and I always keep a tub of Nestle Coffee Mate in the cupboard for those times when I am running low on milk to put it my coffee. I do like Coffee Mate but as I drink several cups of coffee …
PopChips
I adore potato chips. The satisfying crunch, the savory flavor, I just love everything about them. Everything, that is, expect for the nonexistent nutrition value. Most brands of potato chips, even the low-fat ones, have a lot of empty calories and a lot of unhealthy saturated fat. I love …
TGI Friday Skillets - Chicken Fajitas
I am always looking for quick meals, as by the time I get done with work for the day it is already time to start dinner. So my theory is the quicker the preparation, the better. I decided to try these TGI Friday Skillets because you can make a …
Nestle Mio Cremoso with apricot
Today I saw Nestle Mio Cremoso with apricot was on discount for only 0.39 Euro I got two glasses of 125g of the product. I haven’t actually known what it really was but I decided to take it because it was cheap. Don’t think that I buy junk food …
Great Value Chicken Breast, Salad Dressings and Hotdogs
With today’s sinking US economy, everyhousehold would tighten their belts and save as much money as they can. I, as the manager of our family’s finances does this too. I shop at walmart for one. But shopping there would make me save more if I wil not go for a …
Bellona Choco and Noisettes Mueslli Crousti
I went to Lidl the other day. There you have a lot of cheap and good stuff so I like to go there. I eat muesli in the morning and I particularly like the crusty ones with pieces of Hazelnuts and chocolate. I usually but Vitalis but I saw …
