Spaghetti and meatballs are one of my favourite foods but I have always had trouble settling on a favourite store-bought spaghetti sauce and have never attempted to make my own after seeing how long it needs to simmer when making from scratch. It is unfortunate that I don’t get …

Altoids mints have always been a favorite of mine and I enjoy the various flavors so I was very excited when I saw a new one on the shelf. It’s new “cool honey” flavored mints, and comes in a cute little black and yellow bee-striped tin. I …

A message for all of you sandwich connoisseurs out there–JERSEY MIKE’S SUBS. I discovered the small sandwich chain after my neighbor gave me coupons for their trademark giant subs. I decided to give it a try, thinking that it couldn’t be much worse than …

I love tuna but sometimes there are no available tunas in the wet market. Fish is one of the foods that you need to take or eat everyday. The omega 3 and 6 components of it is needed for a healthy heart and to fight wrinkles. The demand for …

I have grown up always knowing what Oreos are. Haha, well who hasn’t?!
On the box it says “World’s Favorite Cookie”. I think that definently holds true for these delightful cookies. Ever since I was little I would always have quite an addiction for Oreos, but only when I buy …

Cranberry and raspberry go together pretty nicely, as this energy drink demonstrates. There’s a tasty blend of two flavors at work in this energy drink, with the raspberry flavoring being the more dominant of the two, but the cranberry flavoring in the drink is still noticeable and able to …

Yet another primo find at my local Grocery Outlet, Grizz Red is a Washington State wine delivered in a screwtop — since that’s the next big wave of wine is the screwtop. I found it for $2.99 and thought, well I can cook with it if it’s horrible. …

I bought these potatoes at my local supermarket and they were a great bargain. They were only a dollar for a five-pound bag and the next week they were less than a dollar a bag. You can’t beat that. Deals that helps stretch your grocery money is always appreciated …

I really do love Orville Redenbacher’s Gourmet Popping Corn, but I’ve rarely tried any of the various flavors except for butter flavors. However, I had a chance to try their new Cheddar Cheese variety and decided to give it a shot.
I was actually surprised how much I liked …

This is by far the best canned tuna fish I have ever purchased. It’s on the expensive side — the can I have is stamped $1.98, but I’m sure I didn’t pay that much. You can often get it on sale for $1.00 to $1.25 a can, which isn’t …

I did drink ginseng coffee few times. And honestly, I like the taste of this ginseng coffee. Some people said that ginseng coffee is better than normal coffee. Why ? We know that ginseng is good for our health or body. When you drink ginseng coffee, the ginseng inside …

If you are in search of something that will provide you with an incredible amount of protein, this cereal is for you! This cereal has more protein in it than most other cereals in the grocery store, and in addition to the hearty amount of protein, there are also …

Recently I decided to return to my low- carb diet. As I looked through the frozen food aisle, I noticed something new. They were new to me anyway. If I had known about them before, my egg stress would have disappeared. I paid $2.99 for the package of two. …

Being a person who isn’t a big fan of instant mashed potatoes and doesn’t have the time to clean, cook and mash fresh potatoes, I was thrilled to discover Ore-Ida’s Steam N’ Mash potatoes at the store last night.
This product, quite simply, is awesome. Rather than having to buy …

It’s been a long time since I had a drink of Whiteway’s Peardrax. But yesterday while I was out yesterday the sun was extremely hot and I decided to get myself a drink. I choose a small bottle of Whiteway’s Peardrax from the cooling fridge.
As I opened the bottle …

Before I travel to Australia, I never really eat this cookies because I first taught that only kids love it. But when I stayed in Australia for like 9 months, I see myself falling in love with this cookie. Not really in love, but what I just mean is …

I recently purchased the Chicken Parmigiana Skillet Dinner from Gourmet Dining and, while I did have at least one complaint about the product, found myself being legitimately satisfied with my purchase.
The Gourmet Dining frozen skillet dinner was both easy to make and great tasting. It wasn’t too salty like …

I burgered myself out recently, so I decided to buy lunch at Arby’s where I knew I’d have to choose something different. The lucky winner was the Arby’s Jr. Chicken Sandwich, which I’d never had before.
This particular sandwich from Arby’s is pretty simple. It includes a bun, …

My parents surprised us the other day by buying a bunch of meat from Recheks Food Pride here in town and giving us half of it (money has been a bit tight after having the baby and they wanted to make sure we had something in our freezer).
One of …

I was a little apprehensive about drinking the Almond chocolate drink. This particular beverage comes in a little juice-box looking contraption, complete with a straw that you punch into the box. Pacific Almond drink packages look pretty weird. And they seem to be …

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 …

The Pillsbury Pumpkin Shape Cookies are kept in a refrigerated section in grocery stores and must be refrigerated at home. When ready to be baked, the cookies are already separated, so it’s just a matter of placing them on a baking pan and sticking them in the oven. There …

I was a bit surprised by Werther’s Original Caramel Chocolate Milk, but I think that was probably my own fault. I was in a hurry when I saw a package of these on sale at the grocery store and just gave it a cursory look before tossing it …

I only recently became acquainted with Tropical Traditions. At first glance, I determined that their coconut oil definitely looked like a superior product, but I wasn’t sure how superior it actually was. I watched a video of how Tropical Traditions makes their coconut oil (without machines, by …

I have been buying these Chips for years and even when I was little we used to have these in the Freezer now and again. They are ok and do the job but since you don’t really get much in the box so they aren’t all that filling but …

I just finished eating a bowl of Beef Pares at Goodah! Well it was the first time I tried their Beef Pares. I kind of expected something with more sauce in it, the likes of the Korean beef stew. It was not spicy, but sweet so that is okay …

I try not to drink anything with High Fructose Corn Syrup in it, or too many artificial flavorings, so sometimes finding soda I can drink can be quite a task. I tried Private Selection Sparkling Soda (Lime-Cranberry) out because I saw bottles of it at the store and it …

I’ve found it to be one of two things when it comes to flavored sodas- people either love them or they hate them. I happen to be one of those people who loves them, which is why I have chosen to review Crush Grape Soda.
We buy this stuff quite …

Bird’s Eye Voila beef lo mein is another quick dinner I wanted to give a try because whenever I’m in the mall, my first thought is: Where is the Chinese food? I always order the chicken, rice, and vegetables; I’ve never given beef lo mein a try until I …

Taco Bell has come out with what they are calling Cantina tacos, which come in two soft corn tortillas doubled up, with cilantro and onions as well as a lime wedge. The fast food restaurant offers three meat choices - carnitas (marinated pork), steak, and chicken. For …

I am not a big fan of processed and/or frozen food, but I have recently fallen hard for these frozen vegetable packages. They’re fast, tasty and a healthy way to get more servings of veggies in your diet!
I bought a whole bunch of these when I was on a …

My mom is a huge fanatic when it comes to key lime pies, which is how I was able to taste the Edwards brand of key lime pies. Usually she’ll purchase a who key lime pie, but she went for a smaller box that held two slices.
The thing I …

One of the snacks that was routinely in my house as a child and young adult was Nabisco Chips Ahoy Cookies. It was a preferred treat by the entire family. We all enjoyed a good chocolate chip cookie, and I especially loved them. Chips Ahoy were …

I used to think a lot more about Klondike Vanilla Sandwiches than I do today. In fact, some time back I reviewed one variety of Klondike ice cream treats which I liked much better than these sandwiches.
Klondike Vanilla Sandwiches are artificially flavored with artificial flavor added. They …

I am going to be very blunt when I describe Twizzlers because they are what they are, and there is no hiding that from the consumer. They are licorice with no taste; if there was a category of candy called boring candy, Twizzlers would feel right at home with …

Nature’s Seasons is a seasoning blend that you sprinkle on foods. I’ve been using it for years and really love the taste. It adds just enough spice but is not overpowering. Nature’s Seasons contains no msg which is great!
I use it on meat, eggs, and in dishes such as …

This “Easy Pack” mix suffers from two devastating problems that really add up to one big-time disappointing pancake mix. First of all, the mix calls for water and not milk, eggs and oil. Adding water as opposed to milk, eggs and oil ends up creating an inferior pancake. The …

Stewart’s Soda is a gourmet microbrew fountain drink with an old fashion taste. Just this week I was first introduced to this delightful drink and its rich, full body taste. The flavor was Stewart’s Grape Soda and every drop from the 12 fluid ounce glass bottle brought back a …

I grew up chugging milk by the gallons. My family bought into the hype that milk makes you grow taller, and me and my siblings drank them to our adulthood. However, in my teenage years, I began to be more conscious of my weight and stopped drinking milk. When …

Mango frooti is the very good drink from the Nesle Company. It is the drink which tastes exactly like the fresh mango juice. It is not the fresh juice but, It is the flavoured drink. This drink is very tasty and very good. This drink …

Let me begin by saying that I am not a big fan of lasagna. I don’t believe it is worth the time to make from scratch, so I wouldn’t want to do that. That’s why I have tried this frozen lasagna product: I decided that if I ever make …

Tea is one of my favorite drinks to sip on throughout the day. Because I love tea so much, I am a very big critic of it. I absolutely hate harsh teas that leave a sour taste in my mouth. I recently saw a bottle of tea on sale …

Too be honest Jolly Rancher candy sucks and is horrible and the candy sucks, plain and simple the candy is horrible. I don’t like how hard this garbage is because it feels as if it is meant to be impossible to bite and chew this candy which is annoying …

Oatmeal for breakfast is probably one of the best things the mankind has ever invented. I don’t really like savoury breakfast foods and the oatmeal is my favourite thing to eat, and not just for breakfast. That alone makes chosing the best oats a very important thing for me. But …

I went to Tesco with a money savvy friend recently who kept drawing my attention to all the bargains I may not have noticed before. On her recommendation I bought a four pack of the Tesco Value own brand of chocolate mousse for an astonishingly low 25 pence! …

Although I adore hazelnut creams I don’t like all of them. Nutella is the best of course, but you can find a few other hazelnut creams that are as good as Nutella. Unfortunately they didn’t put Nutella in this biscuit but they didn’t put anything like Nutella either.
The biscuit …

My eye caught this pasta product because I’m always interested in trying new pasta shapes. The description sounded very appealing —“ pasta and crimini mushrooms with marsala wine sauce and fontina cheese. To add to the appeal, the calorie count is under 300 calories and it is …

Occasionally, I’ll be in the food for Mexican cuisine. While it’s not the kind of food I crave daily, once or sometimes even twice a week, I enjoy having a Mexican inspired meal. For that reason, when I came across the Atkins Beef Fiesta Taco Bowl in the frozen …
