Millville Cinnamon Crunch Squares
Sweet, crunchy and enjoyable in and out of milk, the Millville Cinnamon Crunch Squares cereal is one that’s best enjoyed in moderation. I have found that while I do enjoy the cereal in small quantities, too much of it can make me feel a bit sick to my stomach. …
Hostess Powdered Donettes
I really have two favorite kinds of donuts — glazed and powdered. I suppose I’m overly loyal to what I grew up with and am a bit of a finicky eater (that’s an understatement, I’m certain), but give me a good glazed donut or a good powdered one, …
Nestle Pops
Nestle Ice Cream now has a new product called the nestle pops. This new ice cream is a new innovative ice cream product that you do not need to eat it with a cone or even a spoon.
Nestle Pops is a vanilla ice cream coated with chocolate that looks …
Sunshine Snacks Space Froids Cereal
I recently started eating cereal more often than I used to and when I am in the mood I love the kid type cereals. I had many choices and it was hard because I had went to the store to buy a totally different cereal than the one I …
McDonalds McCafe Frappe
Some days, when I feel like I’ve been constantly on the go and there is no promise of a break anytime in the near future, I need a little pick me up. Something that will keep me going, taste delicious and not burn a hole in my wallet. My …
Blue DIamond Almonds
Looking for something to nibble while watching t.v., I happen to come across a can of nuts. I do not know who bought it, but it’s on top of our refrigerator so I easily grabbed it.
To my utter surprise, it read: BLUE DIAMOND ALMONDS BOLD (Wasabi & Soy Sauce). …
May Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Wine Red Grape
I decided to buy a bottle of non-alcoholic wine for my grandfather to enjoy before he left from his vacation to go back to his home. The first thing that drew me towards buying this wine was the amount of sugar it contained compared to other flavours of this …
Carnation Fat Free Instant Skim Milk
I have never really developed the good habit of drinking milk as I was growing up, but recently I’ve been really getting into yoga, because I want to lose some weight, and yoga has helped me with that, and with dealing with everyday stress. My instructor recommended that …
Magnolia Pancake Plus
Breakfast is complete if you have pancakes for the kids. I also like having pancake for breakfast because it is a good choice instead of going for eating old-fashioned bread. I like wheat bread or oven fresh sliced white bread with cream jelly but nothing can top a freshly …
McDonalds Everyday Mcsavers
I am a very practical person. I wouldn’t buy things that would not be used for long periods of time unless it is emergency, thriftiness is what I am brought up at by my parents. When it comes to clothes, I would settle for cheap one s which has …
Nissin Cup noodles
If you want to enjoy some ready to eat food then I think Nissin Cup noodles are really something you will enjoy eating. All we need is to add a cup of water to the noodles and leave it covered for about 3-4 minutes and the noodles are ready …
Tortellini Four cheeses (BARILLA)
BARILLA, the Italian pasta maker, is probably the most popular among the “big” commercial pasta producers. Some of its success may be attributed to the variety and the sheer ubiquity of their many products. But they wouldn’t be as popular as they are if they weren’t simply good - surely …
Tic Tacs
For some reason, I have been enjoying Tic Tacs lately. My husband acutally had some bloodwork done recently and it showed that his bloodsugar was just the slightest bit higher than where it should be. As a result, he immediately began to decrease sugars from his diet …
Velveeta Shells and Cheese
I’ve never tried any of the Velveeta products before now, but I had heard how good the easy to make macaroni was, and I wanted to give it a try.
The Velveeta shells and cheese box was a little small to be making macaroni, but I didn’t worry about it …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Cajun Style Chicken & Shrimp
The Café Steamers sounds like a nice concept —“ the steam of the sauce warms up food components above. Some of the varieties sounded very appealing and I wanted to try every one of them. I started with the Cajun Style Chicken & Shrimp. You get …
Godiva Truffles
My boyfriend gave me a box of Godiva chocolates for Valentine’s Day and I sort of let it slip that I’m addicted chocolate. So every time he does something that hurts me, he apologizes by having some Godiva chocolates delivered to my house. And I can’t help but give …
Gran Matador Brandy
I don’t know if this brandy is also available outside the Philippines, but here in our country, it’s very popular and known by all men, drinkers or not. It’s cheap price made it another reason for them or should I say “us” to buy the product. It just costs …
Heinz Baked Beanz Snap Pots
It’s only recently that I have started to eat Baked Beans. Why? Well for years I convinced myself I hated them. Full stop. Then my brother told me when he made beans on toast he melted grated cheese on the top..Mmm this sounded different.
Having tried it myself I …
Del Monte Tomato Sauce Original Style
I prefer to use tomato sauce every time I eat fried foods. I like the sweet and sour taste that a tomato sauce can give. When it comes to a good quality tomato sauce, Del Monte Tomato Sauce Original Style is just the best product for me. This is …
Life Water from SAFEWAY
I just bought a new type, for me, water drink called Life Water, from Safeway. I must say that the fruit tastes are much stronger than those in Propel Bottled health water, or in PowerAde. If you are one who prefers a stronger taste of the fruit in your …
Horizon Organic Milk
A friend of ours who is a wellness consultant has opened our eyes to all the bad stuff that regular milk contains - steroids, hormones, and other junk like that. My husband and I both like a glass of milk in the morning, and we thought we were doing …
Wegmans Italian Classics Nonpareil Capers
I think a lot of people are not familiar with capers and how to use them in cooking. Capers are little flower buds that come from the caper bush, which grows in the Mediterranean. The buds are pickled in vinegar. They look something like peas, but they are a …
Roasted Tomato & Olive Oil Triscuits
I am a fan of crackers generally, and since I was a kid, I have loved Triscuits. For health reasons, I usually try to buy whole grain crackers, so that if I am snacking, I am at least not eating high-fat junk food. I try to mix it up …
Sunkist California Pistachios
I bought Sunkist California Pistachios when they were on sale, and still they were a bit expensive, almost $5 for a 14 oz plastic container. For some reason, pistachios are always more pricy than peanuts. Still, once in a while I treat myself to them. Sunkist pistachios are dry …
Solen GoFresh Extra Milky
I was at one big store few days ago and I wanted to buy something sweet, but if I buy big packs I usually eat all what’s in the pack so I decided to buy several smaller ones. So I bought several smaller packs, I mean it is better …
Purity Multi-grain Corn Bread (with whole wheat and Raisins)
A popular brand of bread, bulla and bun here is Purity, and even though I disliked their food a few years ago, I’ve come to like a few of their products just recently, and I’m not sure if it’s because they might have changed a couple of their recipes. …
Campbells Select Harvest Soup
I care about my health. I’m going to be 33 soon and really don’t want to see myself having a heart attack by the time I’m 40 so I am making efforts to eat right.
That’s why my wife and I decided to try Campbell’s Select Harvest Soups when they …
Ice Mountain Water
Ice Moutain water is my favorite brand of water on the market. It has never dissapointed me. Whenever I am thirsty Ice Mountain water is the first thing I look forward to drinking, it is just so refreshing, and just tastes very clean. Ever since I have been drinking …
Figaro: Mesquite Liquid Smoke and Marinade
I initially tried the Hickory version of this marinade previously and liked it tremendously. So when I got the opportunity again, I brought another bottle of that flavor and a bottle of Figaro: Mesquite Liquid Smoke and Marinade for ninety-four cents at Walmart.
I personally love to season my …
Taylors of Harrogate Lazy Sunday Ground Coffee
I applied for an introductory sample of this Taylors Lazy Sunday Ground Coffee as I love trying new brands and, as I say in all my coffee reviews, I am a coffee fiend and cannot get enough of the stuff. They generously sent me enough for an eight-cup …
McCormick Beef and Herb Gravy
While I still believe that nothing beats the gravy of Jollibee, I found the next best thing. And I found it in McCormick Beef and Herb Gravy. I was shopping for meat at the meat shop when I saw a pack of this gravy mix. I was curious as …
Breyers Brownie Mud Pie Overload!
Breyers Brownie Mud Pie Overload! didn’t taste quite as good as I thought it would when I picked up the the one-point five quart for two dollars and fifty cents. It was on sale at the time and regular price was about three dollars and thirty cents. I’m glad …
Jimmy Dean Heat ‘N Serve Sausages - Regular
Jimmy Dean Heat ‘N Serve Sausages - Regular is another product I buy off and on from this long time breakfast favorite. With the passage of years I probably buy it less than I used to simply because I’ve discovered newer Jimmy Dean products that I prefer more.
This …
Sobe Energize Power Fruit Punch
I tried another flavor from the elixir line of Sobe called Energize fruit punch when my neighborhood Kroger was running a sale on them for only eighty cents. Considering I’ve previously tried a previous flavor from this brand I wasn’t too hesitant to grab a bottle.
Personally I’m not …
Butterfingers
One thing I inherited from my mother was the love Butterfingers. She really enjoyed these candy bars, and I always have, too.
Butterfingers are crispy treats with a texture that is similar to peanut brittle. They have a chocolate coating over the orangy crisp. Now, this is …
Oscar Mayer Wieners with Turkey, Pork & Chicken
I like the Oscar Mayer Wieners brand of hotdogs, they can be a little pricy, but the taste is always good. The turkey, pork & chicken variety is probably the cheapest, I bought 2 packs for $3 several days ago. The hotdogs are sold in packs of 10; actually, …
Real D’lites by The Real Crisp Company
In my search for healthy snack food I stumbled upon a new crisp (potato chip) snack called Real D’lites. These are made out of cassava rather than potatoes. Now I’ve tried many healthier alternative snacks before, usually the result is disappointing. However, Real D’lites vine ripened …
Captain Crunch Cereal
Captain Crunch Cereal has been around unchanged for several decades. It is easy to see why when you taste it. There are other forms of Captain Crunch (Peanut Butter, Crunch Berries, even a chocolate one now) but the original Captain Crunch cereal, in the red box, remains the best.
Moms …
Okey vanilla milkshake
I like vanilla milkshakes a lot, and I buy often at the supermarket so I can always have some vanilla milkshake in my fridge. One of the brands that I have tried is Okey.
I found it in 750 ml bottles and in 200 ml bottles. I usually buy the …
Barber Chicken Fingers
Sometimes you need to make dinner in a flash, thats when chicken fingers can come in handy. these chicken fingers by barber taste great and are easily cooked in your microwave in minutes. I really like the ease of cooking these chicken fingers, for me the quicker I …
Kettle Brand Baked Potato Chips
Kettle Brand Baked Potato Chips are alright, although I really do not care for them as much as other potato chips that I have tried. One of the definite advantages that these potato chips have to offer is there is a serious reduction in fat, so these potato chips …
Cafe Direct Mountain Reserve Machu Picchu Instant Coffee
This instant coffee is from the Café Direct Fairtrade range and it is described as —˜smooth with hints of nutty, dark chocolate’. It was the chocolate bit that attracted me. I have been enjoying this coffee but I feel there are better instant coffees out there —“ …
Breyers Chocolate Crackle
Breyers Chocolate Crackle definitely appeals to me in this sense: it is an ice cream that sort of alternates between a smooth texture and a crunchy texture. I like an ice cream that does just that because contrasting textures is a quality that I like in an ice cream. …
Hunts Snack Pack Pudding
I am both in awe and very frightened of this product. It is a dairy product you do not need to refrigerate. Why doesn’t it need to be refrigerated? I have no idea but I assume it means they did something to process it to make it …
Three Musketeers Candy Bar
My favorite kind of candy bar has to be the Three Musketeers bar. There really isn’t anything like it. Well, other than the Milky Way, which for some reason isn’t as good for me (though it’s still very good). If you like milk chocolate and haven’t …
360 Organic Whole Wheat Pasta
I thought I was making the healthy choice when I purchased this pasta from my local health food store. I guess long term this pasta may be a little heathier for me than my traditional bowtie pasta purchase, but it is also disguisting.
Theres something just a little off about …
Carl’s Jr. Milk Shake
Carl’s Jr. Milk Shake is described as being creamy, hand-scooped ice cream that is blended with real mMilk and chocolate syrup with whipped topping.
I was surprised the first time that I had one of these. It was definitely a ton better than I thought. Yet, there are aspects …
Taco Bell Cheesy Nachos
I saw an item on the menu at taco bell. The item was called the Cheesy nachos. I figured with the word cheesy, they have to be at least somewhat good. I was wrong completely. When I got the nachos, it wasn’t even nachos. It was some tortilla chips …
The Booming Banapple Craze
Anybody who has a sweet tooth will definitely appreciate the sweet prices, spices, and sizes of this booming cafe! Having 2 stores located on each side of Katipunan road, a new cafe has opened in the Tomas Morato area, clearly the Banapple craze is just starting, and why not? …
