Whenever we babysit my little cousins, we buy mini yogurt containers. We chose these, Petit Danino, because they are small so the portion size is a good one for little kids.
Obviously, buying them in the small size packs is not the most economical way to buy yogurt - …

As much as I like Hamburger Helper for the convenience, I do have to wonder about the quality of some of their products. The flavor I had today, Italian Shells, illustrates this perfectly.
The Italian Shells themselves didn’t taste too bad. They were a bit salty but I can live …

Pizza Hut’s pizza is usually tops in my book. Their pizza is the best you can get and you can find great specials going on at times. However, the new item, Cheezy Bites Pizza wasn’t anything to write home about.
It’s designed to be breadsticks and pizza in one, thus …

When I bought the President’s Choice Crunchy Mixed Berry Cereal, I thought of it as a “poor man’s Special K”. Personally, I am not big on brand names (whether it’s food or clothing), so I picked up the PC brand instead of Kellogg’s.
The cereal is a mix of dried …

I always associate diet food with unremarkable taste. I don’t really like yogurt, and sugar-free food tends to taste a bit dry. Then I tried Quaker Oats oatmeal cookies. They don’t come cheap, especially compared to most other cookies most people are used to. However, the benefits are well …

What I really like about the butter rolls is the rich and …

I decided to finally try the banana ketchup. How is it different from the normal Del Monte or Heinz tomato ketchup? I love to put ketchup on everything, and when fried fish or chicken is cooked, I put ketchup on it. I really think that food is not complete …
