Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls
Normally, I love Jimmy Dean’s line of frozen food. This is particularly true when the meal includes sausage. As far as I’m concerned, Jimmy Deann produces the very best pork sausage, whether it be the big roll or the link variety. Not too spicy, but not too bland, JD’s …
Birch Tree Powdered Milk
I always have a supply of Birch Tree Powdered Milk when I was young from my grandmother. Besides the other brand my mother used to buy, I also drink Birch Tree Powdered Milk. If you ask the price, Birch Tree is the most expensive among all the milk products …
Durabrand 2 Slice Toaster
A toaster is a pretty basic thing. Sure, lots of toasters out there come with all sorts of fancy doodads and probably do all sorts of incredible things, but when it boils right down to it, there is only thing you want your toaster to be able to …
Banquet Chicken Tenders
I really have got to do some food shopping. I got home today for lunch and realized there wasn’t anything to eat. So, I ended up making some of the Banquet Chicken Tenders I picked up for my daughter.
They were OK but they weren’t great.
I only buy this brand because …

Dulcelin Gourmet’s Cannelloni and US Beef Belly Roast Beef
I have heard a lot of positive reviews about Dulcelin’s food and desserts and have tasted some of them for myself (Mango torte, lechon, etc) which were really good. This is why I decided to order some cannelloni and US beef belly roast beef from Dulcelin when I …
Keebler Fudge Shoppe Fudge Sticks
I always saw Keebler’s Fudge Shoppe Fudge Sticks staring at me when I went to the grocery store and being a chocolate lover it sorta taunted me for a while. I finally gave in one day and decided to buy a package of this sweet treat and leave some …
Lipton PureLeaf Raspberry Iced Tea
The other day I got really thirsty and stopped by the convenience store to pick up a drink. I wasn’t in the mood for a soda so I decided to try Lipton PureLeaf Raspberry Iced Tea. I usually don’t drink bottled tea but I decided I would …
Great Day Breakfast: Original Mini Piggies ‘n Pancakes
Great Day Breakfast: Original Mini Piggies ‘n Pancakes is not something I will purchase again. The reason I will not purchase this breakfast meal again is because I did not care too much for the sausage that was contained within the pancake batter. The sausage did not offer much …
Redondo Vanilla Cream Wafers
We, my daughter and I, first discovered the Redondo Vanilla Cream Wafers at my aunt’s place. She has bought it for her sons to snack on. They tasted great and my daughter loved it and had seconds. So, I asked her where she bought them. She said it was …
Truvia Natural Sweetener
I really do not know what to think about this natural sugar alternative. The makers claim that Stevia is used in its manufacture, but to be honest, I don’t think it is used, or if it is, it is used in extremely minute quantities. Stevia has a distinctive bitter …
Subway sandwiches
Subway sandwiches are as healthy as they claim to be. When you order a Subway sandwich though, there are some important things to remember if you are watchig your calorie intake.
I always order my sandwich to be made on a whole grain bread. If there is none available, try …
Wanchai Ferry Orange Chicken frozen entree
I finally decided to try a Wanchai Ferry Orange Chicken frozen entree after wathcing many commercials that compared them favorably to Chinese restaurant takeout. I admit that I can be a sucker for marketing promotions. However, in this case, I am happy …

Langer’s OJ (Orange Juice)
As a health freak, I am infatuated with the most healthiest foods available. I do not consume products with any chemicals, preservatives, or anything else malnutritional therefore I am very picky. Langer’s orange juice boasts that it contains only 100% pure orange juice. The ingredients also state it to …
Red Horse Beer
I’m an occasional drinker who prefers to have as little alcohol in me as possible but do get a little bit drowsy(just to have some fun though, nothing violent). And for this very preference, i like a heavy beer with less carbohydrates at a not so expensive price. That’s …
Pop-Pan Biscuits

Lipton PureLeaf Green Tea all Natural
Lipton PureLeaf Green Tea all Natural appears to be new competition in the market for all natural refreshments, or at least I never noticed it before. In fact, I was a bit worried that I would not like it, but decided to give it a try anyways even …
Breyers Peanut Butter Tracks Overload!
Breyers Peanut Butter Tracks Overload! is an ice cream that I think will appeal to a majority of people that can’t get enough of peanut butter. There’s quite a lot of peanut butter flavor to this ice cream and it’s delightfully delicious, I think. First of all, the ice …
Nature’s Envy All Natural Original Apple Chips
My luck has been hit and miss with these apple chips. Sometimes, I’ll purchase a package, and they will be fresh, flavor and crisp. Other times, I’ll buy a package and they’ll be on the stale side and not so crisp. It’s a shame I can’t seem to get …

Sainsbury’s Bavarian Smoked Cheese
I really enjoy a cheese with a strong flavour, especially smoked cheese and this Bavarian Smoked Cheese from Sainsbury’s is particularly strong. It has a gorgeous, strong smoked flavour that is utterly mouthwatering and really intense. I have sampled other brands of smoked cheese and I would …
Lay’s Sea Salt and Pepper potato chips
These potato chips are very nice. They are light and crispy - very thinly sliced, and the pepper flavour is very delicate - not at all overwhelming. The sea salt is nice, too - the saltiness of any potato chip is important, but I don’t like it when they …
Skoal Pouches Wintergreen
Skoal Pouches may not prove to be a healthy alternative to long cut chewing tobacco or smoking, but it does not have many of the negatives of both. When using tobacco pouches, the actual tobacco does not touch your gums, it rests inside of a fiber-woven pouch, with …

I have been eating these for a long time now and I really love them. They have a nice flavorful taste. In my opinion the cheese combined with the crunch just makes them perfect. The quality is always great. I have never purchased a bag …
Little Bites Blueberry Muffins
It is a shame that the Little Bites Blueberry Muffins are not slightly more moist and fresh as well as rich in blueberry flavor as the Little Debbie variety because these little muffins are quite the ideal size for snacking while on the go! The size is perfect, but …
GV Hot chocolate
Do you love hot chocolate on a cold winters day? I know when the temperatures begin to fall and I am chilly I enjoy sipping on a creamy and steamy cup of cocoa. I am a cheapskate by nature, and also by circumstance, so naturally when I saw Great Value …

Lucky Me Mac and Cheese
We were in the supermarket when my daughter grabbed this Lucky Me Mac and Cheese and requested to buy it for her. Seeing it from a tv commercial made her want it so much. And so I bought a couple of packs at 15 pesos (if …
Pomelo Fruit Produced in Davao

Lean Cuisine Lemon Chicken Frozen Entree
This is a great entrée offered by Lean Cuisine in their Spa Cuisine product line. I really like almost everything I’ve tried from this product line, because the dishes have a certain sophistication that is not often found in frozen meals. They also are fairly unique and not just …
Stacy’s Simply Naked: Bagel Chips
I have always been one for snacks, especially the exotic ones that catch my eye when I’m browsing in my neighborhood grocery store. With that being said, I decided to try Stacy’s Simply Naked Bagel chips. When first spotting them I thought, “Hey would you look at that? Bagel …
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 …
Maggi Soup It Up Jamaica Cock Soup Mix Pumpkin
Ever since I can remember, I have always had an extreme dislike for soup. I like neither the scent of it nor the texture, but I especially hate the taste, especially when people use soup mixes to cook it. Therefore, even though I did not necessarily love it, I …
Hormel Turkey Chili
When I transitioned from my late teens to my 20s, I started to watch what I ate. Sadly, this meant no more deep-fried foods, substituting lean meats for beef, upping my vegetable intake about three times, and watching the amount of sugar I ate. This is sadly …
Mac n Cheese
I have a confession to make. When the chill of winter sets in, on many a Friday night all I want to do is plant myself in front of my non-existent fireplace with a heaping pot of the gluey orange stuff. No date or dinner out with friends can …
Aunt Jemima Scrambled Eggs, Hash Brown, and Bacon Breakfast
Aunt Jemima scrambled eggs, hash brown, and bacon breakfast is a quick, three minute breakfast before I discovered it was cheaper to just make my own. My main purpose for buying the breakfast was so that I could have a quick bite of something to eat because I never …
Hershey’s Drops
I just discovered Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Drops at my local grocery store, Safeway. They are labeled on the package as new items by hershey and I have not seem them at many other stores. They are pretty much just drops of chocolate. The best way to describe …
Carl Jr’s The Big Carl Combo Meal
One of the reasons I haven’t gone to Carl’s Jr. all the much in recent years is because of their prices. Compared to other fast food places in the vicinity, it cost more there to get comparable meals. Nowadays, though, this west coast fast food restaurant finally …
Great Value Sausage Breakfast Bowl
There is nothing like waking up in the morning to a home cooked breakfast , but who has the time to cook one from scratch. I absolutely love Great Value products , because they taste homemade and you can cook them in minutes. One of my favorite foods they …
Luna & Larry’s Organic Coconut Bliss Ice Cream in Naked Coconut

Heluva Good Roasted Red Pepper Dip
One thing that my husband likes to pack in his lunch is potato chips. The problem is he likes something to dip them in. Usually he is stuck with mustard, ketchup, or barbeque sauce because thatâ◚¬◞¢s all we have in the house. On occasion I will buy a dill, …
Dr.Thunder
I love Dr. Thunder for its pleasant, refreshing “almondy” taste, very close to that of Dr. Pepper and for half the price. I buy 2 liter bottles of it at Walmart for only 58 cents a bottle, and sometimes they even lower the price to 50 cents - hard …
Nestle Pops Bite-Sized Ice Cream
I am so happy Nestle came up with a very unique Ice Cream that is not messy, easy to carry around — yet very very yummy —“ the Nestle Pops, kisses-shapes bite-sized Vanilla ice cream in chocolate coating. They come in cute red handy plastic tubs in two sizes, …
Milo’s Sweet Tea with Splenda
I have a friend who is very careful of what she buys for her family. She had me try Milo’s Tea with Splenda. To my surprise it tasted very good, not like a diet drink. Also, it is also good for you. I love tea would suggest that anyone …
