My most favourite chips are potato chips and the best brand is Lay’s potato chips. Lay’s potato chips are very tasty and spicy. They are also quite salty, but in right proportion. Now Lay’s potato chips are baked chips. Thus, they are fatty chips and so, they are tasty. …

There is no doubt about it, cookies are definitely a favorite treat in my household. My husband loves Oreo’s, the kids love chocolate chip (any brand) and I’m really into Pepperidge Farm. Their cookies always taste fresh and incredibly good. Pepperidge Farm Geneva Cookies is one of my favorites.

Scoopy’s 10 Waffle Bowls is a product that was actually given to me by my sister. She’d purchased them for a party, but had a package left over, so she gave it to me. I haven’t bought these myself, though I do regularly buy Scoopy’s ice cream …

Unfortunately, there’s no difference in taste when it comes to the spaghetti sauce used for Michelina’s Spaghetti Marinara and Michelina’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce.

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 …

I’m not sure if this is available everywhere (but I’m pretty sure yes), but the ones I’ve been to in Ontario offer this. Just for one dollar, there’s a cup of coffee, sausages, croissant, fries, and scarmbled eggs. The food is not at all greasy/oily, and actually covers many …

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 …
