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 …
Tuscani Lasagna by Pizza Hut
Today I decided to order and try the new Tuscani lasagna by pizza hut which I had seen the ad for a few days. I don’t get to order food often, most of my meals are home cooked so I thought I’d give it a try. It looked delicious …
Henry Weinhard’s Root Beer
Henry Weinhard’s Root Beer is something I get from time to time, but those are rare times, mostly because it just cost so darn much. This is considered a big time treat for me, and as a result, I really only buy the product once or twice a …
Pizza Hut Panormis Pizza
Ok, I’m not sure if it’s because the people working at our local pizza hut are a bunch of idiots or if the commercials lie about how great the new Panormis Pizza is. But, whichever the case, I’m seriously disappointed in it.
When my wife and I saw the commercials …
NRG Energy Mix - Intense Grape
I spotted a box of NRG (Intense) Energy Mix in the grape flavor at my local discount store. Being a fan of energy products, I decided to try it out, especially because it was such an excellent price. At $2 for a box of 30 individual packets, …

Shultz Honey Wheat Braided Pretzel Twists
I didn’t like the mixture of sweet and salty that permeated throughout these pretzel sticks. Although neither flavor was extremely strong, I still didn’t think that honey mixed well with salt. The amount of salt on these pretzels is relatively low although it’s still enough to be tasted. I’m …
Breakfast Best frozen breakfasts
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m usually in a hurry in the mornings so, if I want a good breakfast, I have to buy those in frozen form and hope they are as tasty as they are filling.
I was at Aldi last weekend and came across a brand I had …
Amy’s Complete Frozen Enchilada Dinner
Being vegan it makes it hard to find a good old fashion TV dinner. I know that it is better to prepare fresh homemade meals, but sometimes it is nice to have something you can pop in the oven, without any thought.
I often keep Amy’s Enchilada frozen meals …
Quaker Whole Hearts Cereal
Quaker is that brand that I have come to trust for my oat needs. It’s a brand I grew up with as a child, and one I use as a adult. I began using quaker oats, and gradually moved up to the granola bars and now I discovered their …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Vanilla
Quite surprisingly, I never had an easy time tracking down this elusive fourth variety of ice cream. Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Vanilla is, for whatever reason, harder to find in stock than the other three varieties. I cannot understand why, either. I tried it, and there is nothing …
Hershey’s Holiday Assortment
Every year I like to buy Hershey’s Holiday Assortment candies. This year, the big package was 55 ounces. Sometimes it’s a little more than that and sometimes less. Also what the assortment contains can vary.
One of the reasons I like the assortment is that it’s always …
Pee Wee BBQ chips
Pee Wee barbecue flavored chips are one of my all time favorite. They have been in production for quite some time now i think for over 25 years now since i fervently remember eating them when i was still a very young child. Although the company has now grown …
Boar’s Head Reduced Sodium Turkey Breast
I have long since given up buying pre-packaged cold cuts for sandwiches. For this reason, I have decided to buy freshly deli-sliced turkey breast for all my sandwiches. I visited my local Kroger and had them slice the reduced sodium Boar’s Head turkey breast. …
Samoas (Girl Scout Cookies)
Girl Scout Cookies are definitely popular. If you think about it, by selling them only once annually, they create a huge amount of buzz for their products. In my opinion, this buzz is certainly something that is worthy.
Samoas are my favorite variety of Girl Scout cookies. …
Little Debbie Petites Strawberry Cakes
Although the Little Debbie Petites Chocolate Cakes disappointed me immensely due to their overall lack of noticeable chocolaty flavor, I decided to give the Little Debbie Petites Strawberry Cakes a try because I figured there was a chance that even though the chocolate cakes ended up being a dud, …
Lucky Me Sweet Chili Pancit Canton
As I said before I am not fond of eating Spicy Foods. Spicy foods leave my nose to have colds. However, I am fond of eating Pancit Canton and I only trust Lucky Me with that. As you trust a certain brand, it do not gives justice if you …
New York Style - Lightly Salted Pita Chips
New York Style - Lightly Salted Pita Chips are chips that indeed do not have very much salt sprinkled across their surfaces. There is certainly sufficient salt added to these chips to make them slightly salty, but not so much that the salt will be the only thing that …
Entenmann’s Little Bites Chocolate Chip Muffins
I find these Entenmann’s Little Bites Chocolate Chip Muffins to be rather plain and boring. There is simply not much to them. The muffin cake is alright, although somewhat on the dry side. I prefer my muffins to be quite moist and fresh - that is most certainly when …
Mint Chocolate M&Ms (Christmas Edition)
I went grocery shopping the other day at S&R and saw amongst the extensive displays of chocolate the mint chocolate flavored M&Ms. As it was in a very festive green packaging with a female M&M Santa in the North pole, it caught my eye. Add the fact that …
Kombucha Wonder Drink, Traditional Kombucha Beverage
Kombucha Wonder Drink, Traditional Kombucha is a beverage I found on sale while shopping at Aldi’s one afternoon. I was first attracted to the product when I spotted it on sale. Sometimes, Aldi carries random products that have limited quantities. This was the case with this beverage. At the …
Covo Cookies Chocolate
I like chocolate chips cookies, sometimes I make them myself but then I usually make a bunch of them and that means putting some weight on. So although it is much cheaper to make them than to buy them I started buying them. For 1E I can make at …
Ms. Khan’s Sawine
Sawine in my country is like a pasta or noodle which is made in a similar manner of the Japanese Ramen. It is eaten in a milky soup and the noddles themselves are very thin, even thinner than angel hair pasta.
My manager decided she would make some sawine …

My favorite candy of all time is the York Peppermint Pattie. You really can not go wrong with this candy. It is so tasty and is only 90 calories. I love the chocolate and mint flavor mixed. I love anything mint and chocolate but the York Peppermint Pattie is …
Roma Pizza
My wife picked up some Roma pizzas yesterday because they were on sale; 6 for $10. I have to say, they weren’t worth the money.
I have had Roma pizzas in the past and remember liking them. But, after trying them again last night, I can’t remember why I did.
For …
Tang Fruit Teaz Juice Drink

One drink that I do enjoy drinkingnow and then is Gatorade, Cool Blue flavour.I must say that I like it for …
Nestea Vitao green tea with lemon
I like green tea very much but not the one you can make for yourself from tea bags because that one never tastes good, it is just too bitter and if you put a lot of sugar it becomes very sweet but still has that bitter after taste. I …
Sprite
Soft drinks are gaining daily in popularity and two companies Pepsi and Coca Cola are the major players in Indian market. Honestly I prefer coca cola over Pepsi as cola products are much more stronger in taste, Pepsi has a sweet kind of flavor which isn’t very good to …
Jack-N-the-Box Sourdough Cheeseburger
Recently I had the chance to try the sour dough cheeseburger from the Jack-n-the-Box chain of fast food restaurants. I’ve had a similar burger from Rally’s and Hardees in the past so I thought it sounded like something familiar and yet a little different. The burger sits in between …
Cadbury’s Wispa Gold Chocolate Bar
I thought the Wispa Gold was new but apparently it is back by popular demand after being introduced as a limited edition Wispa some time ago. This is basically a Wispa bar with a layer of caramel just underneath the top layer of chocolate and can be differentiated …

Trident Layers with Real Fruit Flavor Sugar Free Gum

I bought the green apple and golden pineapple flavor gum. I only buy …
Ackee and Saltfish
“Ackee and Saltfish” is my country’s national dish. I am unsure of it being like any other dish in other countries hence I think it is unique to only my country. I was told that the ackee fruit originated from West Africa in the days when Africans were brought …
Tecate Beer
I haven’t drank that much Tecate Beer in my life. But the few times that I had the honor of partaking of this fine beer I must say I enjoyed! Now Tecate Beer is a very good tasting Mexican beer. This is a great beer to drink at parties or …
Morrisons Delicatessen Bowlands Cheese

Pringles Multigrain Crisps Truly Original
Much like the original Pringles chips improved the quality of potato chips by introducing non-greasy chips, Pringles has now once again improved the chip even more by enriching the crisps with multigrain. What multigrain is is a heart-healthy and cholesterol-lowering ingredient that comes from grains. Grains are good for …

Dog On It
Dog On It is the name of a beverage that I found in our local United Grocery Outlet the last time I went shopping for groceries. I have to admit that the name makes me think of something that appeals more to kids rather than adults. However it is …
Peter Pan peanut butter
Peter Pan peanut butter is relatively less thick than some other peanut butters I tried. The taste of peanuts is not highlighted in this product which gives it a different blend of taste while spreading on the bread. Even though it is written crunchy on the label of Peter …
Dove Milk Chocolate
I’ve never been a big fan of Dove Chocolates, mainly because they tend to be expensive and for no good reason that I can see. I’ve never ate the ice cream or tried any of their candies until this last week. I was standing in line at the grocery …
