I’m a big fan of yogart, and I eat it at least 5 times a week. I usually buy Yogart thats on sale each week.I was on a recent shopping trip at Wal-Marts, and they had Yoplait Thick & Creamy Yogart for only 50 cents each. I have never …
Crispy Minis Delights snack food
I don’t normally try these 100 calorie or 90 calorie snack packs, partially because I prefer to make snacks from scratch and partially because I find them a bit annoying - as if you can’t just enjoy a little snack, the company has to portion control for you. But …
Cinnamon Bun Premium Cookie Mix
Pillsbury Cinnamon Bun Premium Cookie Mix is a product I picked up from the market when I was in the mood to bake. I wanted a easy shortcut, one that wouldn’t have too many steps or too much to clean up. Pillsbury is one of those brands that …
Bolthouse Farms Perfectly Protein Vanilla Chai Tea
Several years ago, my son started buying Bolthouse Farms bottled healthy drinks. I asked him if I could taste them. Yum. My absolute favorite is the Bolthouse Farms Perfectly Protein Vanilla Chai Tea. It is a healthy blend of soy, green tea, chai spices, vitamins, minerals, and vanilla. …
Roseland Hot Italian Sausage
I was a bit hesitant to try Roseland Hot Italian Sausage because Italian sausage prices in the grocery stores have really seemed to jump up in price recently. This was selling for about twenty cents under three dollars at ALDI, so it was several dollars cheaper than the Italian …
Cheese Club Macaroni & Cheese
The Cheese Club Macaroni & Cheese is a boxed macaroni and cheese product that’s sold in the non-refrigerated section of ALDI Food Market stores for twenty-nine cents. In one seven point twenty-five ounce box, there’s macaroni and a dried cheddar cheese pouch which needs to be added to the …
Reese Sticks Wafer Bars
Back in my childhood, there was a neat candy bar that was made as wafers. I can’t remember the name anymore, but these chocolate covered wafers were yummy. Somewhere along the line, whoever made them stopped. There have been other wafer bars that have come along, …
Breezy Spring Harvest of Heaven Select Pure Apple Crispy Snack
I found the Breezy Spring Harvest of Heaven Select Pure Apple Crispy Snack online on Alice.com. These little apple snacks cost me $1.89 for a little 0.67 ounce pack —“ but, if you buy dried fruit, you know that none if it is cheap. Dried fruit is …
Entenmann’s Chocolate Chip Crumb Loaf Cake
While Entenmann’s Chocolate Chip Crumb Loaf Cake might sound like a tasty combination treat, I most certainly did not care for it when I tried it! The chocolate chips hardly have any real flavor them. I see them, and they are there, but when they come into contact with …
Mrs T’s Potato & Cheddar Pirogies
I am flat out addicted to these things! However they are something you really only must eat in moderation. Also, I don’t really recommend them to people who are trying to stay on a low carb diet or watch their weight… because these things are carb city!
What is a …
Old Roy Dog Food
Old Roy Dog Food is actually a very good brand of dog food. It was, however, involved in the tainted dog food scare of three years ago, but those issues, whicginated in China, has since been resolved, and the pet food is safe for your dogs to eat. …

McDonald’s Sausage McMuffin Value Meal
I haven’t been a big fan of McDonald’s for many years. It’s not really because of the chain itself, but of a local owner of two nearby McDonald’s and who in my opinion had some unfair business practices. I guess you could say I’ve had a private …
Triscuit Limited Edition Cranberry & Sage Wheat Crackers
Triscuit crackers are probably one of the healthier crackers out there, due to whole grain wheat being a main ingredient and the decent amount of dietary fiber that they have to offer. There is no question though that some people just don’t like wheat, and even if someone enjoys …
Russell Stover Marshmallow & Caramel heart
One of the many Valentine’s Day treats on sale in 2010 is the Russell Stover Marshmallow & Caramel heart. I purchased this for 59 cents the other day. For me, that is a high price, but sometimes I think we need to treat ourselves. Russell Stover …
Roti Prata (Indian Flatbread)
I love breads, especially freshly baked bread. I am not very familiar with bread from our neighboring countries, especially from India. The first time I tasted roti prata was in a food stall in a nearby mall which sold roti prata. It is the Singaporean breakfast composed of a …
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 …
Little Debbie Fancy Cakes
I find Little Debbie Fancy Cakes to be alright, although really, nothing special. They certainly do appear fancy and live up to their name, but underneath the fancy name this cake is really nothing more than a lot of sugar and frosting. There is white cake too, and yes, …
Nestea Flavors
Its been a long time since I have tried to drink an Iced Tea. I guess I might have already even forgotten how good it tastes. I have seen so many new flavors there are in the market. There are new flavors of iced tea from Nestea company like …
McDonald’s Apple Pies
McDonald’s has been making these for a while but I just recently decided to try them. These apple pies are fantastic and I love being able to purchase them from a fast food restaurant. I love apple pie but I was a bit skeptical about trying these …
GO Veggie! Vegan, Dairy Free Cheese Slices
Due to a pesky dairy intolerance, enjoying a slice of cheese or a tasty grilled cheese sandwich had become a long, distant memory. I’d searched a long time for a dairy-free cheese alternative that also excluded my other allergens like gluten and soy. Thankfully I discovered GO Veggie! Dairy-free …
Orville Redenbacher’s Popcorn-Microwavable Bags
I love Orville Redenbacher’s Popcorn and it’s my most favorite brand of microwavable Popcorn. I have tried several other brands of popcorn but I have not been able to find any other with a better taste. Orville Redenbacher’s is sold in several different box sizes but I …
Mexican Casserole Bowl: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
The Mexican Casserole Bowl is one of my most favorite dishes that Amy’s makes. It is very easy to microwave and is so filling. Personally I would much rather buy one of these then go out to eat at a Mexican restaurants. It is really that good. I like …
Stouffer’s Family Size Macaroni and Cheese
I love making homemade macaroni and cheese, but sometimes it can be a chore when I’m cooking a large dinner. I never like to cheat–that much–when I’m cooking, but for one particular dinner I was tired and couldn’t put out another dish; therefore, I decided to go to my …
Batchelors Super Noodles
I have enjoyed Batchelors Super Noodles since I was a kid, although I am convinced there is probably not much nutritional value to them. The other thing about them is that they are not very filling and I am sure to be hungry again an hour after having …
Kroger - Three Minute Microwave Pizza Cheeseburger
Cheeseburger pizza is something that I never thought I would try despite liking both cheeseburgers and pizza. I just never believed that the two could taste that good when merged into one. The one and only reason that I decided to give this Kroger - Three Minute Microwave Pizza …
Drake’s Yodels
Drake’s Yodels are long and fat chocolate creme-filled cakes. They very much remind me of Hostess Ho-Hos in color, shape and flavor. On the outside, there’s s layer of chocolate frosting that goes all around the Yodel snack cake. The chocolate frosting has a mildly rich flavor to it. …
Mix Nuts by Growers, the Health Nut
When I was a kid, my mother used to buy greaseless peanuts in a pack made by Growers. Growers is a Philippine brand, manufactured by G.F.I. Enterprises, Inc., a snack food company with the greaseless peanuts as its very main product.
Now, Growers Mix nuts is my …
Wrigley’s Orbit Professional with Calcium
I used to buy original Wrigley’s chewing gums all the time because they were quite cheap. I knew a shop where I could get them for 35 Euro cents only and that really isn’t much I think. But then the price of Orbit continued going up and up. Each …
Mc Donald’s Deluxe Quarter Pounder Sandwich
I decided to try out some of the newer options at Mc Donald’s lately. I received a flyer with decent coupons in it for Mc Donald’s and it made the prices a more affordable option if I did not like the choices I made. Normally when …
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 …
Quench Aid drink
I grew up knowing about the drink Quench Aid, which was at the time a cheaper imitation brand of cool aid. One of the things I remember about it the most too when I was little were the ads on the television and radio, which always seemed to persuade …
Trader Darwin’s Cold Pressed Flax Seed Oil
I had heard about the many benefits of flax seed oil. Namely that it is an important ingredient in keeping your skin moist and young looking.To acheive that end I decided to buy some flax seed oil one of the times I was at Trader Joe’s.For those of …
Camel Snus
Camel, a well known American tobacco company, has recently started test-marketing a traditionally Swedish oral tobacco product called snus. Although the product is not (yet) available in my home state, I was able to obtain some while on a recent trip to Florida. I purchased all three flavors: spice, …
Large Lemonade from McDonalds
Often while I’m out during the summer I get incredibly thirsty. Nor does it help any that the temperatures are hovering near ninety with high humidity. To top it off, I’m often walking on foot and that just makes me more parched than ever. I need a drink to …
Breyers Fat Free Ice Cream
Some time ago my doctor told me that I had high cholesterol. She recommended medication, exercise, and a diet low in fats. I have always been a big ice cream fan and hated to give it up, but most regular ice creams are high in fat. …
Kroger Value Pancake Syrup
Kroger Value Pancake Syrup is not the richest and not the thickest pancake and waffle syrup that I have ever placed on my pancakes or waffles, but I still find it to be an enjoyable syrup that enhances my satisfaction of eating pancakes and waffles or when I dip …
Defender Health Drink Provides Many Benefits
I try to be vigilant about drinking throughout the day. I noticed that I was losing energy and catching more colds. I think it had a lot to do with the stress level of meeting some big project deadlines at work. A co-worker had a bottle of Defender on …
Chunky Beef & Potato Soup
I actually bought Chunky’s Beef & Potato Soup by accident. They had several varieties on sale and I thought I was picking up a different kind. In fact, when I got it home, I was so disappointed; I ended up putting it toward the back of our pantry.
Today, I …
Fruitwater better for you than soda- and better tasting too
I recently tried the new “Natural Grape” flavor in Veryfine’s Fruit-2-O line available in the beverage aisles and fridges of grocery and convienience stores everywhere. This flavor was my favorite of all in this line so far and I intend to purchase it again very soon.
Veryfine Fruit-2-O have 0 …
Verleo Catering
I recently attended a house party which got Verleo Catering to cater its food. The host was very excited about the food and we were all hyped up about it, as we had also heard some good reviews about Verleo. When we arrived, the tables and …
Anchor brand Mackerel
Tinned food never has developed very much in India, only few items are available and most of them doesn’t last more than 2-3 months. It’s slowly catching pace but sure will take time for thing to start really rolling. Keeping this in mind Anchor brand mackerel tinned in fresh …
Knorr Italian Sides Four Cheese Bow Tie
Creamy and cheesy are the words that come to mind when I think of what this Italian Side is like from Knorr. Cheese is something that I probably eat too much of, but it sure tastes good, and this Italian Side is another thing that sure tastes good! The …
Mini Chips Ahoy
Chocolate chip cookies are my favorite kind of cookies. I really like cookies when the are soft. I am not normally a fan of the bagged chocolate chip cookies. They are normally hard. Today my child had gotten a small bag of Mini Chips Ahoy. …
Tazo Organic Chai Spiced Black Tea

Corazonas Heart Healthy Baja Bean Dip
Corazonas Heart Healthy Baja Bean Dip isn’t bad at all. I still prefer the original, basic tortilla chip variety, but Baja Bean is good as well. What amazing me about the Corazonas products is that you really do taste what the flavor of the product is supposed …
Lumberg Wild Rice Cakes Lightly Salted
When you have a soy allergy, it is very hard to find something to snack on that is safe to eat. Well, these wild rice cakes fit the bill as they only contain a few ingredients, mainly rice and sea salt. I admit I never ate rice cakes before …
Miracle noodles
I’ve been trying to cut down on carbs. I saw an advertisement for these (also known as Shirataki noodles) and thought I’d give it a try. I purchased them directly from the Miracle Noodle website, which was from CA to PA. The order took five days to …
Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Mint Chip
I found Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Mint Chip to be a decent flavor, although it is certainly not in my top five favorites. The mint flavor of the the ice cream really tastes like any other brand of mint ice cream, and that in itself is actually disappointing …
