C&H Powdered Sugar
I actually picked C&H powdered sugar accidently while looking for normal granulated sugar. But after using it I now feel that C&H powdered sugar has served my purposes quite well. The good thing about C&H powdered sugar is that its is clean and pure white. I am surprised to …
Mama Cozzi Pizza
I buy a lot of items at Aldi’s grocery stores. Most are pretty good and, save me money. However, they have a frozen pizza line called Mama Cozzi that is really disappointing. In my 6 year old daughter’s opinion (which I value highly), the final verdict is “Eweeyuck!” I …
Food Club Frozen Broccoli
Product Description: Two pound bag of frozen broccoli bought at my local Piggly Wiggly store last night for $2.
What I liked about this product: Well, I loved the price. My wife sent me to the store specifically for broccoli because she was working on a recipe and didn’t realize …
Old Jamaican Ginger Beer
One of my favourite carbonated beverages these days is a beverage by the name of “Old Jamaican Ginger Beer”. When I first tried the drink, I hated it because I thought the ginger and the carbonated soda together made the drink very harsh on my thirst especially. However, after …
Airforce Nutrisoda
A few months ago, I came across Airforce Nutrisoda, a fruit flavored soda that was supposed to be good for me. I eagerly bought an 8.4 oz. can for $.79 and took it with me to work, to see if it would help energize me AND taste good …
Duinkerken Gluten Free Biscuit Baking Mix
Duinkerken gluten-free biscuit baking mix is the best one of its kind I have tried so far and for a number of reasons. The biscuits are easy to make, have a great taste and superb texture, and the price is comparable to other brands.
When I first purchased the brand, …
Kachacha mango bite
Kachcha mango bite is the name of the candy. Actually these candies are very tasty and very tangy to eat. Those who love to eat something spicy or little bit tangy, candies for them this kind of candies will suit best. Actually the kachacha mango means …
Labrada Nutrition Lean Body On the Go Ready to Drink Vanilla Ice Cream
Labrada Nutrition’s Bananas and Cream as well as their Strawberries and Cream flavored drinks are pretty delicious, with the former being the most delicious, while this flavor is only slightly above average in quality. It’s still better than the Chocolate Ice Cream drink the company makes, but the vanilla …
Crystal Gyser Natural Mineral Water
I started drinking mineral water last year and, quite honestly, it didn’t grab me. I tried a few brands but I never understood the appeal. Then, I found this brand.
Chrystal Geyser is a fine mineral water product that has the added benefit of being flavored. Flavors I’ve tried have …
Truvia Sweetener
I tried Truvia sweetener because several low carb websites were singing its praises, and because I became concerned about the safety of other artificial sweeteners. Truvia is a blend of erythritol (a sugar alcohol) and stevia. I had never liked stevia on its own, so I was wondering …
Minute Maid Premium Orange Juice
Minute Maid Premium Orange Juice is a staple in my family. Every morning we have our orange juice before starting our day. One day, I didn’t realize that we were out of the Minute Maid, so I served my family another brand that I happened to have …
Progresso Light Santa Fe Style Chicken Soup
Guess what time it is again?
(Don’t break out in a sweat—¦I’m being rhetorical of course. Trust me, you’re good!)
It’s time to break out the old mythical lunch pail and thermos again to sample yet another lunchtime soup. (Can you tell I’m on a diet and working out again yet?) …
Yorkshire Tea
I only have tea occasionally as I prefer coffee, but I like the odd cup as tea is supposed to be so much better for you than coffee. So I am no expert. When it comes to tea, I guess I like a medium strength tea. …
Denali Valley Sliced Peaches
My aunt arrived from abroad and one of the things she brought us were canned goods. It was interesting that at least there were some fruits and not just the typical morning breakfast stuffs. I really like peaches because of its luscious taste. In most of the brands that …
Aldi Food Stores in Pittsburgh, PA
Aldi Markets are small self-service discount grocery stores with reasonable prices on bulk items, mostly dry goods and everyday staples. The stores I’ve visited in the Pittsburgh area remind me of tiny Costco-like stores. I just returned to the East Coast, so I don’t know how long …
Kellogg’s Corn Pops with Fiber Cereal
Growing up, we shopped at Costco where we only had access to the trio of sugary cereals: Lucky Charms, Coco Puffs, and Trix. I never got to try any other type of cereal other than those three and Raisin Bran. Now older, I have no desire to …
Conimex Fried Rice
Today, I bought Conimex Fried Rice. What is that? It’s an instant herb that you can buy in the supermarket or grocery store if you want to cook Indonesian Fried Rice.
The price of Conimex Fried Rice ( Nasi Goreng ) is not expensive at all. I bought one …
Hebrew National Beef Breakfast Sausage
Recently, I discovered a product called Hebrew National Beef Breakfast Sausage. I purchased the reduced fat version of this product. There are several varieties to select from. These beef sausages have no artificial flavors or colors, and no fillers or by-products. Just that information alone was enough to …
Progresso New England Clam Chowder Soup
Once again, I’m digging back into the ol’lunch pail to see what’s soup’s on, and yet again it’s “chowdah” time. On the soup docket today is Progresso Traditional New England Clam Chowder, but how does it stand up with it’s competitors? You know I’m hungry enough to find out.
In …
Bay Estate Tea Co: Diet Green Tea
I had the opportunity to try a new brand of bottle tea from Bay Estate Tea Co I had never previously heard of the brand and was curious to give it a try. Normally I don’t drink diet bottled tea, since it’s made with aspartame or some other artificial …
Jack in the Box: Sirloin Burger
The new Jack in the Box Sirloin Burger is just great. I had one the other day for lunch and it has got to be one of the best steak burgers I have ever had. It was very good and juicy. The burger was fresh and still warm when …
Mayfair Egghead Dairy Milk Chocolate
I was starving one time when I discover this milk chocolate. I went to the nearest food store to buy something salty to eat and then I see the yellow packaging of chocolate from Mayfair. I used to eat this kind when I was young; this is because my …
Jeff Gordon 24 Energy Drink
My wife realizes I’m not a big Jeff Gordon fan so, as a joke, she couldn’t resist buying me the energy drink named after him. After trying them, I’ll be willing to admit they aren’t half bad. But, you won’t see me looking for them at the grocery store …
Maggie tomato sauce
Maggie tomato sauce is very different in its taste. There many kind of flavours in Maggie tomato sauces, such as hot red chilly, one with mint leaves, the regular sauce, etc. I have tasted all of them and I like all the tastes because they are just …
Starbucks Treat Receipts
If you are a fan of Starbucks just like I am, than I am sure you have heard of Starbucks treat receipts, a promotion that they typically run through part of the summer. What it is is you purchase a beverage before 2:00p.m. you can bring back your receipt …
Maggi Coconut milk powder mix

Mrs. Freshley’s Winter: Holiday Powdered Mini Donuts
Although there is really nothing all that spectacular about Mrs. Freshley’s Winter: Holiday Powdered Mini Donuts, I nonetheless find them to be a satisfying and delectable snack to have around the winter season. There is nothing holiday or winter-like about these donuts, aside from the decorative box. The donuts …
Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Hot Cereal
To this day, I love Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Hot Cereal. I have a lot of sentimental attachment to this food. As a young girl, this is something my father used to make for me before going to school, and when I got my first job, he …
Dole Fruit Bowls - Fruit Parfait
Dole Fruit Bowls are the most delicious little things I’ve ever eaten. They come in three varieties - Peaches & Creme, Pineapple & Creme and Apples & Caramel Creme. I’ve only tried the peaches and apples because I think pineapple has too much of a sour tang …
Our Family Enriched White Bread
Since I was picking up lunch meat last night (I found it on sale), I decided I probably should buy a loaf of bread too. We had some bread at home already. But, with sandwiches, we go through it too fast and I didn’t want to risk running out.
Since …
LeanPockets Subs Sandwiches
I generally get Lean Pockets for times when I just want to get a quick, easy lunch and don’t feel like going to a lot of trouble.
They recently came out with a new product-Subs. They are a lot more “sandwich-like,” in my estimation. The bread is softer and …
Kroger Low Fat Granola with Raisins
Kroger Low Fat Granola with Raisins is very similar to Kellogg’s Low Fat Granola with Raisins. In fact, the two cereals are identical aside from one being a store brand that sells at a lower price and one being a name brand that sells for a more expensive price. …
Cheddar Cheese
I am a wife and a mother, so naturally it is my duty to cook the food for my family. Actually cooking is my hobby and I love cooking. I try many kind of new recipes and serve it to my family. But while cooking the …
Sichuan Dan Dan Mian
On a spring trip to Sichuan, China, me and my family had the opportunity to try one of the famous local dishes: Dan Dan Mian or spicy noodles. We sat down at the table in the restaurant, and a big bowl of red noodles was put on the …
M&M Premium Candy
If you put candy in front of me chances are good that it will not last very long. I thank my genetic and fast metabolism regularly. My husband loves to bring me snacks on a fairly frequent basis.
My daughter loves M&M Mini’s while I prefer mine with …
Tesco 2 Chocolate Sponge Puddings
I have been into various chocolate puddings lately and I need to watch it or I will get fat. I spotted this packet of 2 Chocolate Sponge Puddings in the chilled section of Tesco today and, especially as it was only £1, I thought I would treat myself …
Kellogg’s Rice Krispies breakfast cereal
One of the great classics of the breakfast cereal world, if I can use that perhaps slightly overblown expression, is Kellogg’s Rice Krispies. This has been a favourite all over the world for very many years now, and there is no real mystery as to why - it is …
Carolina Gold Parboiled Rice
When my father’s friend and his family came back from abroad a few days ago, they brought a few products with them. One of those products was a very large bag of rice, which I late found out was a bag of Carolina Gold Parboiled Rice. As weird as …
Soba Noodles from Vitasia and recipe
Hi,
Today I am going to review another product of Vitasia, the soba noodles. I bought them for less than a dollar from Lidl, a grocery store.
This is a package of 300 grams of brown noodles, just waiting for you to cook them. Because the best way to review a product …
Diana Almond Milk Toffee
I’m not sure where exactly this brand of toffee is made, or what country it was manufactured in, but I know that my father brought a bag of it home one night a couple months ago. He saw someone selling a pack of them on the road, and decided …
Bajadera Kras
This is a very unique tit bit, it carries the label of Croatian Creation, and it is the first and only product that carries that label. It won golden medals on different fairs because f its high quality. It is made of fine nougat blended with almonds which gives …
Millville Apple Cinnamon Crispy Oats
I feel that the name of this cereal is not very appropriate because I do not feel that there is much apple cinnamon flavor at all and also the cereal is only slightly crispy, but also a little on the soft side, and this is all without milk. This …
Dulcinea’s Creamy Chicken Penne
My mom, aunt and I met at the mall yesterday to buy gifts for the coming Christmas season. After strolling around for a couple of hours, we found ourselves craving for some snack. We finally came up with the idea of trying pastas in Dulcinea.
…
Lay’s Kettle Cooked Potato Chips
There was once a time when Doritos, Ruffles, and Pringles ruled my snacking and/or lunching experience. But over time, I began to be drawn to more natural flavors and textures. Suddenly chips with too much salt or seasoning weren’t that appealing to me. I think the …
Brent & Sam’s Chocolate Chip Pecan Gourmet Cookies
I had never encountered the brand name of cookies called Brent & Sam’s until my mother who came on vacation recently bought a couple of boxes of these cookies with her. She brought a box of Brent & Sam’s Chocolate Chip Gourmet Cookies and a box of Brent & …
Dillman Farm - All Natural Peach Butter Fruit Spread
Although I am most certainly not a person that regularly eats peaches or peach-flavored foods or treats, when it comes to the Dillman Farm - All Natural Peach Butter Fruit Spread, I do on occasion purchase a jar of this spread when I have not had something peach-flavored in …
Schneiders Lean Stuffs Chicken Quesadila
I am not generally a big fan of meals that contain a lot of pastry, but my exception to the rule is Schneiders Lean Stuffs Chicken Quesadila pockets. Often they are a ridiculous price at my Supermarket, but when they came on sale for $2.50 I bought them. What …
Snow Crab Clusters
As long as I can remember, seafood has always been a part of my diet. I originally started eating–I think–blue crabs, but it wasn’t until I was in high school when I discovered my new love for snow crab clusters.
Snow crab clusters are mainly the legs from the snow …
Pillsbury Original Crescent
Let’s face it, when it comes to breakfast pastries the crescent has it in the bag. There is just something about how flimsy it is and the flakiness you get when you break it in half. Pillsbury is the only brand I’ll buy when it comes to crescents and …
Nescafe Cafe Parisien Instant Coffee
Nescafe Cafe Parisien is a gorgeous instant coffee and I think it is my favourite from the Nescafe range. This is supposed to be French coffee, to make us feel as though we are sat outside a Parisien coffee shop watching the world go by. If it …
