Cap’n Crunch cereal
I bought this Cap’n Crunch cereal on sale. This 350gram box of cereal boasts that it contains ‘O trans fat’, which I thought was a redeeming quality. The other thing I like was that this cereal contains no white flour, they make it with corn flour and oat flour.
There’s …
Hillshire Farm Deli Select Ultra Thin Mesquite Smoked Turkey Breast
Hillshire Farms keeps coming out with new varieties for their Deli Select product line, and so far, they’ve all had something special and tasty to offer. The latest one I’ve tried is Hillshire Farm Deli Select Ultra Thin Mesquite Smoked Turkey Breast. Turkey is probably my favorite …
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 …
Cellogs corn flakes
Cellogs corn flakes are a new snack, which my kids just love it. When I had been to the market just 4 days back, I saw this packet and wanted to give a try. These corn flakes are the products of the company called Cellogs. These …
Equality Veggie Pizza (frozen product)
I like to stuff my freezer with those small frozen pizzas. It is definitely not the among the best tasting frozen products. As a matter, it does have that processed cheese plastic-y taste. But at the same time, there are products out there that are a lot worse.
There are …
Quaker Cinnamon Life Cereal
When I was younger, my parents and I had a compromise about which types of cereal I could eat. My mother would buy one box of “kid” cereal for every one box of healthy cereal that I ate. But once we discovered Quaker Cinnamon Life cereal, there …

The new Del Monte Fit n’ Right is advertised with the tag line “Be Fit. Be Firm. Be Fab.” They boast of it as having L-Carnitine which helps burn fat when you drink it.
In a way, this product tastes good, thanks to the flavors of this juice: Apple, Pineapple, …
Domino’s Chicken Habenero Sub
In this recession, there have been very few companies posting profits. Among those few profitable companies, Domino’s has been thriving. I think I may have stumbled across one of the reasons why, and it comes in a little cardboard box.
Currently in my area (Fredericksburg, VA), Domino’s is …
Peppermints - Milk Chocolate from See’s Candies
Just about my all time favorite treat for decades has been from See’s Candies. It’s their peppermints, primarily the milk chocolate variety. They do have a dark chocolate, but I’ve never been a dark chocolate affectionado, for some reason.
The Milk Chocolate Peppermints really do satisfy me and …
Pooles Meat and Potato Pies
Like me I’m sure that you are always looking for something different to eat, you know something that will make a change. Well a couple of weeks ago I spotted Pooles Meat and Potato Pies in the freezer compartment at my local Morrisons supermarket. The photograph on the packaging …
Presto Creams Peanut Butter Cookies
I was curious why many children love Presto Creams. Even my co-officemates are addicted to it. They invite me to eat with them one time but I refuse. Some of them eat Presto Creams for lunch. I said to myself that I would never eat cookies for lunch as …
Michelina’s Santa Fe Style Rice and Beans
One day, I was looking for something to eat that was light—”something that would go well with an ordinary fried piece of chicken. It wasn’t until I got home that I realized that this was a “Lean Gourmet” kind of meal. This means that …
Kool-Aid Sharkleberry Fin Artificial Flavour Punch drink mix
I am not really a fan of the Kool-Aid brand of artificial drink, but I sometimes buy it because it is cheap and when I can’t afford to buy another much better brand of even natural juice. I also can’t say whether or not I have a favourite flavour …
Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference Belgian Milk Chocolate
I treated myself to a bar of this Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference Belgian Milk chocolate today and I can tell you, this is really gorgeous chocolate and was a nice treat. This was only a smallish bar of 40g of chocolate measuring just over two inches by about …
Chocolate Peppermint
I have been growing this plant for years with 100% satisfaction and success. I got my first plant in a trade years ago, and started over 100 new plants from that single seedling over the course of the next 2 years. I gave baby plants away, traded them for …

Actavia Yogurt by Dannon
I was not a yogurt eater until I heard about the Actavia Yogurt by Dannon. I heard about all the great benefits of eating this yogurt and what it does for your system. I have also seen the commercials and decided to give it a try. When you are …
Snickers Minis Ice Cream Bars
While looking at the ice cream aisle this week, I saw Snickers Minis Ice Cream Bars, a product I didn’t even know they made. Well, I knew they made or used to make full size bars, but I haven’t bought those in a very long time and haven’t …
Eva Non-alcoholic Sparkling Apple Juice
The other day at the supermarket I was shopping and saw a new product on the shelves in the drinks aisle. It was a Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Apple Juice by a company named Eva. They had a few other flavours available but I decided to try this flavour first.
I got …
Lady’s Choice Caesar Salad Dressing
I have been eating many kinds of salad with dressings but this Lady’s Choice Classic Caesar Dressing made me want more. It’s not the typical dressing because I discovered it can be mixed with other kinds of healthy food especially when you are on diet. It is made up from …
Honeycomb cereal
Honeycomb cereal is a pleasantly sweet cereal which is crunchy and doesn’t really taste like honey at all. Some key features are that it is has low fat, 10 essential vitamins, and iron and zinc. It has 130 calories for 1.5 cups, which is a very reasonable amount. However, …
Betty Crocker Supreme Original Brownie Mix
To be honest, I rarely purchase brownie mixes anymore because I tend to get a product that I like better and is simpler to prepare; but when I do buy a mix, it’s usually Betty Crocker Supreme Original Brownie Mix. This is a product that came out many …
Sanchi Sweet Milk
Out of the many branded diary products I use, Sanchi sweet milk is my favorite. Whenever I go for a jog, I always have at least one bottle of them, and at time two as well! Sanchi products are all delivered in authorized Sanchi dairy, which have many branches all …
McDoanld’s Premium Roast Coffee
The new McDonald’s Premium Roast Coffee is way better then the old kind. I thought their old coffee was OK but this new McDonald’s Premium Roast Coffee is just great. I really like the freshness of the coffee. Also the taste is very good. In fact I think this coffee …
Meat Loaf recipe
I am a mother of two, a cook and a very busy woman. Putting all these together, I am very careful and sometimes choosy on the food I serve to the kids. I must admit I am guilty of buying the canned goods and the microwaveable plates too. I …
Fibisco Chocolate Mallows

Pizza Hut’s PANormous Pizza
As a lover of pan pizza, I was excited to receive an email from Pizza Hut announcing their new PANormous pizza. Finally, on Christmas Eve, I decided to order one and see if it lived up to its promise.
Pizza Hut claims the PANormous is 40 percent bigger than …
ChocoLava Chocolate Drink
This product really gets a chuckle out of me. Why? It is because this is being endorsed by our local artist named John Lloyd Cruz with a tag line: “No more kid stuff for me.” That is really funny because this ChocoLava instant 3-in-1 chocolate drink is nothing but …
Twix Topix Creamy Caramel (waffle)
Most people I ever discussed these “topix” with, liked —“ or, in some cases, disliked - the original Twix because of its gooey caramel and crumbling biscuit filling. It was —“ still is - achingly sweet and it felt like it would take a week to brush it off the …
Furikake, Japanese Rice Toppings
When my brother in law and his kids went for a vacation back to the Philippines from Japan, I notice that the kids are not eating much of the food being served on the table. Mostly are Filipino food like sinigang, tinola and sautéed vegetables. Instead, I saw …
Sans Souci Dark Chocolate & Jelly Bean Eggs
What a great idea for Easter - two dark chocolate eggs (2″ tall) filled with colorful jelly beans. These eggs are available from Chocolate.com for $18. They come in a white box that looks somewhat like those carryout boxes at Chinese restaurants; when you open the box, the eggs …
Reese’s Peanut butter cups
I love Reese’s Peanut butter cups. They are delicious. You cant really buy anything else quite like them in the UK. I have always liked peanut butter and chocolate, when you put them both together, you have the perfect combination.
Given that Hersheys is an …
Tesco Value Malt Loaf
I have been trying to cut down on my spending lately and have been sampling the delights the Tesco Value range has to offer. At the ridiculously low prices they are selling for, you should not expect anything to be of the highest quality, but some products in …
Popsicle Ice Age Slow Melt Pops
Three different kinds of popsicles come in this package: strawberry, cotton candy and lemonade-flavored popsicles. The one flavor that interested me the most was the lemonade-flavored popsicle because ice cold lemonade is truly a refreshing thing to have when the world is roasting outside. I figured that a lemonade-flavored …
Fit & Active Chicken Noodle Homestyle Soup
The Fit & Active Chicken Noodle Homestyle Soup comes in a nineteen ounce can for one dollar and nineteen cents. This is a canned soup that I’ve only been able to find at ALDI Food Market stores. In addition to the chicken noodle soup, ALDI Food Market stores also …

Hormel Natural Choice Carved Chicken Breast
To be honest, I’m always cautious when it comes to trying new meats. I’m very loyal to products I grew up with, and with all the scares in the news about this and that, I just like to stay with what I know and trust. However, when …
Cloverhill Big Texas Cinnamon Roll
After reading some positive reviews about Cloverhill Big Texas Cinnamon Roll, I decided to give them a try myself when I went shopping at Sam’s Club a few weeks ago. These rolls are sold in what is probably a vendor’s type of box, a total twelve individually wrapped …
Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Sundae Cups
I’ve been buying sundae cups for many years and I’ve purchased different brands of them as well. For the first time, I purchased Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Sundae Cups. Sunnyside Farms is a store brand, and it’s one I’ve never been fond of. Still, every now and …
BreathSavers Wintergreen Mints
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 …
Chicken Wings by Flaming Wings
I love chicken barbecue so much but this time, I have to taste another dish.
My officemate treated the whole team with buckets of chicken which includes assorted parts like wings and legs. There are several flavors and my first three picks are: Wild, Smokey Barbecue and Original. These chicken …
Cloverhill Bakery - Cherry Donuts
Cloverhill Bakery makes packaged cherry donuts that can be found in supermarkets. I personally wish that I would not have come across these donuts because then I would have never tried them. While the cherry donuts are certainly not what I would consider horrible, I must say that I …
McDonald Quirino Taft
The McDonald at Quirino Avenue corner Taft (City of Manila) is the place where I and my office-mates mostly buy our food because there are no other fast-foods located near our office other than this one. When I am craving for pancake in the morning, I’d go straight to …
Bridel Emmenthal cheese
Bridel Emmenthal cheese is another brand of cheese, which can be seen in the shops or in the super markets. Actually I had never bought this brand of cheese for my family sake but many a times I had seen it in the shops. When I had …
Tesco Crusty White Sliced Split Tin Bread Loaf
I buy this bread especially for my morning toast as I have found it makes perfect toast. For 90 pence, you get a large sliced loaf with each slice being quite thick and sometimes I even pick this up from the ‘reduced price’ section in Tesco because even …
Bojangles Pinto Beans
I recently had the chance to try the Pinto Beans side dish off the Bojangles menu and I have to say that I was a little disappointed. I like a lot of things this southern fast food chain offers, especially their macaroni and cheese and fries, but these weren’t …

Golden Bantam Corn is an heirloom variety of corn that you can save seed from year to year and get the same thing repeatedly. It cost $1.65 a pack for two ounces which contains approximately 230 seeds. When we were setting up our farm this year we decided we …
