I don’t eat many ready meals, finding they always taste far too salty for me and mostly have an incredible amount of fat in them. Add to this the fact that these days most ready meals take around forty five minutes to cook in the oven and you …

I find Entenmann’s All Butter Loaf Cake to be a decent treat to have with my breakfast every now and then. There is nothing really incredibly special about this loaf cake, although I feel that it offers a decent enough flavor to have once or twice a week, sometimes. …

Another flavor I have tried under Selecta is their Fruit Salad. This is a conventional Filipino dessert. Selecta made it a flavor of its ice cream given the popularity of this food. Last Christmas, I bought half gallon. Together with another flavor, this was the least favorite and it took …

I didn’t care too much for these wafer snacks because I didn’t find them to be particularly rich in chocolate flavor. There is a somewhat dull chocolate taste to these wafers, but it’s kind of subdued and weak and it doesn’t really do much for me when I have …

Count Chocula is by far my favorite breakfast cereal… Make that lunch or dinner cereal too! Heck make it my midnight snack cereal while you’re at it! Count Chocula is mainly marketed toward children, but as an adult, I still love and crave the chocolaty tastes of Count …

Lay’s Classic Potato Chips are great and they are one of my most favorite types of potato chips. Lay’s Classic Potato Chips are available in both small bags and large bags. The price of these potato chips vary depending on the store but I usually pay 50 …

I tend to go for ‘healthy’ foods that I think will be good for me based on the packaging. However, it always helps to look at the package carefully and make sure that it is not just saying it is healthy. Aldi food stores offers a line …

There’s really nothing all that notable about Hostess The Flash Cakes. Although the cupcakes may look attractive, they’re basically nothing more than Hostess Cupcakes with food coloring added as well as sprinkles. For the most part, Hostess The Flash Cakes and Hostess Cupcakes taste exactly like, with the only …

I usually like Lean Cuisine meals, but this one was disgusting. I didn’t even finish it, and that’s really saying something for me! Lean Cuisine’s packaging describes this meal as “chicken tenderloins with cornbread stuffing & whipped potatoes.” There wasn’t one thing I liked about this meal, so let’s …

I know I have reviewed the McDonalds on the North side of Beaver Dam in the past. But, I have been pretty critical of that restaurant before too and, now that I actually had a good experience there, felt it was only fair to take a few minutes to …

Over the last few years, my dogs, present and past, have enjoyed Salix Premium Beefhide Chews many times. They really do love them.
The two-pack features ten-inch beef basted rolls. The packaging says they are handmade with no preservatives. It says they help to reduce tartar building up …

One day I was looking at recipes on the internet and I came across this maple nut cake with maple butter frosting. I was immediately saddened that I could not try this recipe as my country does not yet import the McCormick Imitation Maple Extract that both recipes called …

My mum used to buy Twiglets for us kids all the time but it occurred to me recently that I had not had them for years. So I had them for the first time after a long hiatus and I still find them gorgeous. Twiglets are twig-shaped …

Milkmaid tea is the first nursing tea that I tried and tested without any complaint. The tea is use to boost production of breastmilk because it contains varieties of herbs that are useful for lactating mothers. I personally likes the taste but somehow my breastfeed baby does not like …

Cascadian Farm is one of those brands that offers organic foods. I’ve come to discover them in recent years when going to stores like whole food and changing up my eating patterns. They are a bit pricy but well worth every penny. I had an opportunity to …

I love potato salad but I have a special technique, if you want to call it that, when it comes to making potato salad. Whenever I buy food outside potato salad is always on my list of food to scout out before I decide to look at rice or …

Little Debbie Banana Nut Muffins are really quite delicious! The banana flavor is rich and present in every bite that I take out of the muffin. The flavor is just so real and fresh that I think I prefer these banana-flavored muffins to bananas themselves! Simply scrumptious! The nut …

A few years ago in an effort to slim down I decided to consult a health food specialist about ways to help my body burn fats. She suggested that I try to detox my system so that my metabolism would be able to work more efficiently. It was then …

After trying the “Yoplait Original Key Lime Pie Yogurt” I made it a goal of mine to try several others of Yoplait’s exotic flavoured yogurts. One of these flavours was the “Yoplaits Original Red Velvet Cake Yogurt.” Just the name of it made me very excited about trying it, …

These Teddy Grahams aren’t as tasty as the chocolate or chocolate chip flavors, but they’re better than the honey flavored Teddy Grahams. These Teddy Grahams have a cinnamon flavor to them that is pretty pleasant to taste, and also to the smell. There’s a week aroma of cinnamon that …

I picked up a one and a half pound clam-shell package of Sun Belle blueberries on my last trip to Costco. These berries are from Sun Belle Berries out of Santiago, Chile.
I’ve been trying to eat more fruit lately and sprinkled on cereal and just eaten plain, these blueberries …

I am not sure if it is right to say Rasna as a soft drink, cause unlike others, it is not carbonated. Anyways, we can call it a beverage. And this beverage is quite popular in India.
This is probably the cheapest beverage you can every get, and its yummy tasty …

Looking for a cheap, palatable method to cure that nasty morning breath? BreathSavers mints are a cheap and relatively effective way to improve those social skills. Sugar free, with only five calories each, the little mints are mild enough in flavor for the sensitive mouth, but strong …

Snacking is a guilty pleasure of mine. I try to kick the habit, but I find myself right back where I started. Usually munching on things that are satisfying to the tastes buds, but aren’t the healthiest. Often times it’s potato chips, or some other snack chip. Crunchy and …

This is my favorite andy bar ever. About 10 years ago these candy bars were availibel everywhere Hershey bars were sold, so you could pick them up at the gas station, grocery store etc,. the one day, suddenly, they were gone.
Recently I have found them at a few locations …

I was a little disappointed with this Pasta Sides creation. I found the bacon bits to be lacking in flavor and thus they pretty much went unnoticed by me as I ate the macaroni side. The rich and gooey cheese that coated the macaroni pretty much wiped out what …

I love natural juice sourced from all types of fruits–guava, mango, pomegranate, apple..the list goes on. I like drinking juice in morning, it is a good way to cleanse your body and a good source of vitamins and minerals. One of the products that is hitting the stores …

Kashi is one of those brands that I have come to love in recent years. They have almost always managed to impress me with their quality products. In this case I decided to try their cereal from their organic line called Simply Maize.
Simply Maize is what I would …

We all need water to survive. A safe drinking water will lengthen this in some way. We drink water on a regular basis whether we like it or not. So how do we find a good source of water aside from the tap water we have. …

I love this chocolate spread. I eat this often during breakfast and afternoon tea. It comes to the rescue everytime I crave for something sweet in between meals. I love this on my toast, pancake, pan de sal (breakfast bun), crackers, and even on a filo …

This soup has become a family favourite, which is a bit surprising as I had imagined a soup made of lentils to be rather bland and boring. We first discovered it when we were looking for a pure soup for our young daughter which contained no artificial ingredients. …

Giada De Laurentis is one of my favorite Food Network stars, so I was really excited to try out her line of sauces and oils at Target. While I am a big fan of most of them, this sun-dried tomato pesto is definitely not one I will be buying …

Having impressed with some other products of Fast Fixin I bought their beef patties. For five dollars the number of patties that are coming in a single packet is very economic. There were a dozen of them inside. But this value for money is perhaps only thing I liked …

We were eating at a Chinese fast food when a chili sauce was served together with the siomai we ordered. My husband loves to eat spicy foods or dips that are very very spicy. I don’t even know how he swallows his food anymore. After eating, he went to …

I haven’t had Hamburger Helper in years and wasn’t really a fan of it when I was a kid. However, I saw that they had a brand new Hamburger Helper that you could heat in the microwave, and I thought that I should give it a try because maybe …

I am a firm believe that if something works there is no need to change it. So when I saw the new experimenting being done to the classic Oreo cookies, I was just a little perplexed as to what would make them suddenly change the chocolate outside vanilla inside? …

I just love cashews, they are my favourite nuts ever and I only ever once had the pleasure of trying a Nature Valley Sweet and Salty Granola Bar from a co-worker. It was very delicious and definitely a different flavour from the Cashew Nut Granola Bar.
Well, I was …

Krusteaz Apple Crisp Mix is one that I purchase pretty often. The apple, cinnamon, oats, brown sugar and assorted spices all help to make for a delicious crisp mix! The apple flavor is quite authentic, which I suppose should not be surprising since real apples are used in this …

I do not quite know what to say about this Little Debbie Chocolate Chip Creme Pies. Half of the cookie I rather like while the other half, I really find disappointing. What I like about this cookie is the rich and delightful as well as plentiful creme that is …

One of my favorite kinds of cereal is cinnamon life. It comes in a couple size boxes. It is a square cereal. There are other types of Life, but I’ve only had the cinnamon type. It can be eaten with sugar and/or fruit. I …

The Old London Bagel French Onion Chips are very rich in onion flavoring - more so than any French Onion flavored potato chips that I have ever had and best of all, these bagel chips do not come with all the grease that potato chips have to offer or …

I know I already have attested and admitted how much I enjoy drinking a cup or a glass of cold coffee or frappucino. Well it is not quite obvious that even coffee mixes in tetra packs have been tried by me. Just this morning, I tried the “coffeehouse” brand …

“Chubby” was a Trinidadian soft drink product which came out in the nineteen nineties in Jamaica when I was about six or so years old. I guess the product was named Chubby because it was in a small stout plastic bottle, which at the time to me, made it …

I have tried several other name brands of powered cocoa when making recipes that call for it. Each time, I come back to using Hershey’s Cocoa because of the rich flavor it has. Hershey’s has mastered powered cocoa. With the several other brands I have used, I have not …

As I have begun to prepare more Mexican food at home, I have also been searching for a decent easy and quick mix for tacos. That is why I tried out McCormick Original Taco Seasoning Mix recently.
My take on the McCormick Original Taco Seasoning Mix was that it …

Although I certainly do enjoy ranch dressing in my salads every now and then, I did not find the ranch flavor that is baked into these potato chips to be overly enjoyable or particularly tasty. Yes, the ranch flavor is most certainly zealously zesty and tremendously tangy, so one …

After trying Stouffer’s lasagna for the first time about a year ago, I was completely hooked. The taste is what I loved most. With a rich, creamy texture, it was hard not to come back for seconds. Ever since trying it once, we have bought it …

I really love this choco cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies. It is creamier, thicker and really chocolatey. I always prefer this chocolate flavor compared to vanilla. I like munching this cookies during break time and coffee or milk goes with it perfectly. I dunk it to my cup of coffee …

This brand of ice cream is one of those I like. Although I buy this regularly when I go shopping, this is not my best choice of ice cream. It is cheaper though compared to my favorite one so I still buy it and stock it in our fridge. …

For those unfamiliar with lemon curd, this sugary spread is typically used on English scones. However, I like having it with many other breakfast foods. The quality of jarred lemon curd seems to run the gamut between abysmal and superb. Dickinson’s is the best I’ve tried so far.
If I’m …
