Crystal Light On the Go Packets are a neat little product. They are little tubes of powder that you can tuck in your pocket or purse and use individually.

Mickey’s Malt Liquor
I think Mickey’s Malt Liquor has a great taste compared to other Malt Liquor’s. The beer is smooth and does not have a bad aftertaste. The bottle even looks cool. If you are just starting to drink Malt Liquor I would say this is the perfect 40oz to start …
Copper Mountain Hot2Go Hazelnut Coffee Latte Light
On a recent trip to my local mega-store, I came upon Hot2Go Coffee Lattes, made by Copper Mountain. Priced at less than $1.50 each, I decided to grab a few.

This is a spicier red beans and rice, whcih i really like. as Ive gotten older …
Arizona Ice Tea
Arizona Ice tea is the cheapest ice tea that I have ever come across. It is also the best for the small amount that you pay for. If only the other brands sold their drinks for 99 cents. They would get a lot more sales if they did.
You can …

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.

Kraft Easy Mac
I am all about Kraft’s new Easy Mac. It, quite simply, is small bags of noodles and when added to water and microwaved, they boil. Once that task is accomplished, you simply add the enclosed container of powder, and …….wala! You have yourself a perfect single …
Pocari Sweat Ion Supply Drink
When I go out to mall to buy some stuff that will be used at home like groceries, shampoo and soaps, I never forget to buy a can of Pocari Sweat, the mild tasting drink is delicious and the sweetness is just right. You can easily find it in …
Cloverhill Bakery - Lemon Long John Cake
The Cloverhill Bakery - Lemon Long John Cake is something that I found to be mildly satisfying. The reason I use the word mild is simply because I feel this cake could have been better, but I cannot say I was overly disappointed in because I did enjoy it. …
Barilla Farfalle pasta

HoMade Savoury Royals Crackers
I’m not even sure where my mother bought these, but all I know is that I haven’t seen this product in years. It was one of those cheap snacks my parents used to buy for me when I was much younger, and then when a lot of the Trinidadian …
Breyers Butter Pecan
Breyers Butter Pecan, much like the Butter Almond variety, suffers from a major problem that results in my enjoyment of this ice cream being significantly hampered. The problem I am referring to is there are simply not enough pecans to be found in this ice cream to make it …
Monster Hammer Espresso
One of the weird drinks that I have had recently is the Monster Hammer espresso drink. I saw it while I was shopping at Big Lots and it caught my eye. It came in one of these mini cans for only fifty cents. Big lots usually has great …
Bull’s-Eye Barbecue Sauce - Original
I’ve always loved barbecue food. There’s something about that extra zest on the meat that appeals to me. Traditionally, too, when eating something like hamburgers, I’ve used catsup. However, lately I’ve started to use barbecue sauce no matter how my meat is prepared, and it’s really …
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 …

For making this type of fried rice, I love to add a bit of vegetable stock to …
Yamasa Zaru Soba Dipping Sauce
We got our Yamasa Zaru Soba dipping sauce at the local grocery (Robinson’s Metro East mall) for around Php 140. I’ve also seen some available at the grocery at Megamall and UniMart Greenhills. It is packaged in a 330ml bottle which has a sticker that says “Yamasa Zaru Soba …
Hostess Ding Dongs
Hostess Ding Dongs are a whole lot like Hostess Cupcakes. They have a somewhat harder chocolate frosting exterior, a soft chocolate cake interior and have white creme in the middle. There is more creme in Ding Dongs than the cupcakes though, and the Ding Dong itself is a little …
Pillsbury Quick Bread Pumpkin
The other day I tried baking two loafs of these for the very first time and I am very happy with the results. This pumpkin bread is truly delicious! Even more amazing is the fact that it tastes just like my grandmother’s zucchini bread that I remember from my …

Kiss Fruit Slice

Armour Vienna Sausages
I was digging through my cupboard the other day and came across a can of Armour Vienna sausages. I don’t remember buying these so I can only assume it was something my parents brought over for us (they have a habit of buying things then not using them). But, …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Real Cheesecake
I really cannot tell the difference between this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Real Cheesecake and the homestyle cheesecake. I cannot say that I know what they mean by the use of the word “real”. I originally thought that it meant that this cheesecake would be closer in taste …
Cousin’s Meatball Subs
A couple days ago, I was in the mood for a meatball sub. Normally, I get these at Subway but Cousin’s was on the way home so I stopped their instead.
It was OK, but I think I still prefer Subway’s version.
I’m a huge Cousin’s fan, mostly because they do …
Nescafe Coffee
I never used to like coffee very much to the point where I would wonder what other people found to like in its taste. However these days I have begun to appreciate a mug of coffee now and then. I have also come to realise that that not ever …
Pauls Fish and Chip Shop in Kempston
You can always tell when a Fish and Chip shop is good, because in the evening it’s busy. I have to admit that Pauls Fish and Chip shop is the best place that I have had a good chippy.
As with most chip shops you can get your chips, sausages, …

Do you like trying new foods? Do you have a family that loves peanut butter and jelly sandwiches? Are you into healthy items and do you want your children to have the best? If you can answer all these questions with a yes, then you have to try Honey …
Envidia Green Tea Apple Flavor
I am starting to be a health freak. I monitor the nutritional facts of the foods I take in. Envidia Green Tea caught my attention by their commercial with the catchy line “One Two Zero”. One for having EGCG (Epigallocathecin Gallate), two for two times power of L-Carnitine and …
Smithfield Smoked Ham Half Picnic
This past Thanksgiving, turkey has always been a tradition at my mom’s table, but last year we decided to go with ham instead. Neither one of us wanted to slave over prepping a ham and making a glaze for it, so we decided on buying a Smithfield smoked ham.
The …
Kellogg’s Rice Krispies Treats (Individually Wrapped)
Rice Krispies Treats have become an American tradition, and considering the current need to simplify life and save time, these individually wrapped treats will surely follow suit. Gone are the days of sweating over a hot stovetop while you muscle a thick glue of marshmallow, butter and cereal into …
Sabra Roasted Garlic Hummus
If you are a fan of hummus like me then you know for sure how important it is to find the good stuff. Not every hummus will do. As a matter of fact, unless it is really, it’s not worth having at all. Sure the restaurants have the good …
Honig Lasagna
Yesterday, my daughter asked me to cook lasagna. So when I went to do the grocery, I was looking for lasagna to cook for our dinner. I was checking on the store to find the right lasagna for our dinner. I saw some lasagna brands but they have expensive …
Michelob Pomegranate Beer
Michelob is a beer company that I’m not very familiar with because I usually don’t drink the beer they make. I know people who do, but I’ve never been one of them. When I saw that they were now making a pomegranate flavored beer though, I couldn’t wait to …
Dentyne ice gum
Dentyne ice gum is okay, but I enjoy other brands, like Extra much better. The flavor of this gum, peppermint in this case, is really nice and flavorful for a little while, but the taste fades pretty quickly in this brand. I do not know why they …
Oroweat Country Potato Bread
Oroweat is that brand of bread that has always been a favorite in my household. Not only for its health benefits of being a natural food, with no preservatives, high fructose corn syrup or any other artificial ingredients that plagues most food nowadays. In my opinion it’s the closet to …

I love Hershey’s Shell Topping. I first came across this product when looking for a chocolate ice cream topping at the grocery store. I love making chocolate covered strawberries, so when I saw the Hershey’s Shell Topping, I thought I might try it with my strawberries. The …
Vodka Cruiser - Melon
Drinking alcoholic drinks is really one of our favorite things to do when my friends and I get together, or if my boyfriend and i don’t have anything much to do. I never liked the taste of beer that why I am constantly looking for other drinks that …
Denali Valley Sliced Peaches
My aunt arrived from abroad and one of the things she brought us were canned goods. It was interesting that at least there were some fruits and not just the typical morning breakfast stuffs. I really like peaches because of its luscious taste. In most of the brands that …
Cloverleaf Chunk Light Tuna
The product is sold in a 170g can. It uses yellow fish tuna marinated in water. I would have to rate this one as an average product. It is not really tasty nor anything special that I would recommend. But I do have to say that I have definitely …
Dooly Apricot Nectar juice
I don’t usually buy juices because they cost a lot and usually they are too sweet so I prefer to drink plain water. From all juices my favourite one is apricot juice, it is actually the only one I like but the problem is that usually apricot juices are …
Nature’s Promise Organic Almond Butter
After much deliberation about the hefty $ 9.99 price tag, I picked up a 16 ounce jar of this smooth, unsalted almond butter. The only ingredient listed is “organic dry roasted unblanched almonds”, which is very important to me. I had almond butter before (different brand), so …
Yoplait
This is by far the grossest yogurt drink ever made which surprises me because yoplait for adults yogurt is delicious and quite healthy. I purchased a 6 pack of this yogurt drink in strawberry flavor because it has Dora the explorer on the bottles, and what kid does …
Chips Ahoy! with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Time and time again, it has been proven that peanut butter and chocolate go extremely well together. Reese’s candy pretty much thrives on this flavor combination. Nabisco has also taken advantage of this, releasing Peanut Butter Chips Ahoy where chocolate chips are put in peanut butter cookies.
They …
Arce Dairy Ice Cream
Sugar free is unheard of in most part of the Philippines, and although our population consumes tons of ice cream annually, there are only two brands to choose from. My parents don’t eat ice cream a lot. I don’t know why but they never shared their children’s passion for …
Masterfoods Creamy Herb & Garlic Potato Bake
I bought one 175g packet of Masterfoods Creamy Herb & Garlic Potato Bake Recipe Base because it looked interesting, and there was more inside the pack than just powder, which is usually the case with other brands.
On the back of the packet it stated that aside from what was …
Gemini sunflower cooking oil
Gemini is the brand name of the sunflower cooking which we use in our house. Actually my father in law used to bring the ground nut refined oil before we use this Gemini sunflower oil, but since our doctor has prescribed all of us to stop using the …
Publix Strawberry and Almond Cheesecake
I can’t be certain of who introduced me to the Publix strawberry and almond cheesecake, but I give them many thanks for doing so.
Before I started eating Publix strawberry and almond cheesecake, I wasn’t really a big cheesecake eater: I didn’t eat cheesecake religiously. I remember my mom brought …
Best Choice Black Bean, Tomato and Corn Mexican Salsa
We have seriously been trying, as a family, to save money at the grocery store. The main way we have managed to accomplish this is by buying generic products. This was a new step for us because we have always purchased name brand products in the past. However, we …
