If you’re looking for a filling but affordable meal at The Old Spaghetti House (TOSH) restaurant, you should try their pasta meals. Their pasta meals are actually good for two and you could actually ask them to serve the meal on two separate plates. Not only that their pasta …
Echo Mint Chocolate Bars

I spent my weekend driving around Calgary stocking up on ingredients for ethnic dishes that I was planning to cook over the next weeks. One of the joys of Calgary is the many ethnic markets in the city, and the best Middle Eastern market, in my opinion and according …
Brakebush Popcorn Chicken
My daughter loves popcorn chicken. But, it’s expensive to keep buying it from the deli so we looked for some we could make ourselves. The brand we settled on was Brakebush. And, while the Brakebush frozen popcorn chicken isn’t bad, it unfortunately didn’t work for our family.
The thing I …

Well just yesterday I once again had the …
Francisco Round Sourdough Bread
Francisco Breads are another tasty option for great breads. It’s a product my family has enjoyed for a number of years. Like one of its biggest competitors, Colombo, it’s never let us down. It’s been fresh, delicious, and great tasting every single time.

Chick-fil-A Chicken, Egg & Cheese Bagel
Chick-fil-A Chicken, Egg & Cheese Bagel is one of the few menu items from the Chick-fil-A fast food restaurant that I have actually been disappointed with and have no desire to purchase again. The reason I was disappointed with this sandwich is because I did not think that the …

Kroger - Three Minute Microwave Pizza Cheeseburger

There are a variety of recipes out there that outline how to prepare pigs in a blanket or mini crescent dogs, and that’s great if one has the time to go ahead and do that. As a majority of people out there have likely found out time and time …
Twix Peanut Butter Bar
Although I’m not as crazy about peanut butter as I’m about caramel, I still like peanut butter and so, it was no surprise that this Twix bar appealed to me. I always felt that the Twix candy bar could use more caramel in between the cookie portion and the …

Twistos Baked Snack Bites Parmesan Garlic Flavor
In a previous review, I highly praised the asiago-flavored Twistos Baked Snack Bites. I felt the snack bites excelled when it came to both flavor and texture. Naturally then, I was excited to try the other flavors, in the hopes that they would be just as delightfully good. I …
Marie Callendar’s Frozen Dinners
One of my favorite TV dinner brands is Marie Callendar’s. This is going to sound weird, but these dinners don’t really taste like TV dinners, for the most part. Just because they go in the microwave doesn’t automatically make them bad. These dinners have a homestyle taste that I …
Chobani Greek Yogurt
I have intended to try some of the “Greek” style yogurts I’ve seen in grocery stores the last year, but was afraid I might not like them as well as the tradional brands I am used to. I was afraid they might be sour or “too natural” tasting.
When I …

Milano’s Italian Grill Chicken Parmesan
For the first time, I tried today Milano’s Italian Grill Chicken Parmesan. I’ve previously enjoyed their Spaghetti with Meatballs meal, which I truly love, and I’ve eaten their Lasagna with Meat Sauce which I wasn’t thrilled with at all. I’m actually happy to report that my review …

Lakeport Lager
When it comes to Canadian beer, Lakeport Lager is about as cheap as you are going to get. Fortunately for fans of cheap beer, Lakeport’s taste is better than you’d expect given the price. While it might not be a premium beer, it is still a good …

McVities Jaffa Cakes
Good old McVities Jaffa Cakes were around when I was a girl and they do not seem to have changed at all. I looked them up on the internet out of interest and they have actually been around since 1927 which shows what a winning formula they are …
Ronzoni Bistro Rotini with Tomato and Basil

21st Amendment Brewery’s Hell or High Watermelon Wheat Beer
I found a small 6 pack of this beer at my grocery store, and since I like wheat beers and watermelon, I figured I would give it a shot. While this isn’t my favorite brew, it’s definitely a refreshing twist on one wheat beer.
The first thing that drew me …
Eatons Original Jamaican Jerk Tomato Ketchup

JACQUOT Chocolate Truffles
Not being a particularly avid chocolate consumer I only discovered these venerable French bonbons (the factory, while backed by big capital now, has been in operation since 1922) only two years ago, while shopping for my aunt who IS a chocolate addict.
I’ll admit the first thing that made my notice …
Bingo potato chips
I always love munching. I love the food and I always keep some kind of food in my bag. But now I am going to talk about the Bingo potato chips, which I tried recently. These chips are made using very fine quality potatoes. These …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Chicken Marinara
Who doesn’t love Chicken Marinara? That’s only if you’re not of this earth. Who doesn’t the combination of fried chicken breast with meaty spaghetti swimming in savory marinara sauce? It also seems like a travesty to “healthify” this satisfying dish but Healthy Choice has dared to …
Fuze drinks
Recently I went into the gas station for a soda and saw these Fuze drinks in the cooler too, and decided to give it a try. So I picked up the Peach Mango drink instead of the soda, paid for it and left. Wow let me tell you …
