Great Value: Microwave Extra Butter Popcorn
Great Value: Microwave Extra Butter Popcorn is pretty delectable, although I was certainly hoping for a somewhat stronger butter coating over the popcorn than what I tasted. I could most certainly taste the butter, but when something reads “extra butter”, I really expect for my taste buds to be …
Warm Delights Make a Great Gift, Comfort Food
Recently, I have been giving myself the treat of a Warm Delights snack cake on Saturday afternoons. It’s a once a week treat that is inexpensive and tastes good, but last Saturday I came up with a new reason to keep them on my shelf–emergency comfort food.
My upstairs neighbor …
Nescafe Body Partner Premix Coffee
Some people loves coffee, but not coffee that tastes too “coffee-ish” (if you know what I mean). Some people, like me, loves the taste of coffee and the nutrition of milk.
Can one get two bites off the same apple? The answer is yes - …
Nissin Chocolate Wafer
Wafer lovers should try Nissin Chocolate Wafer. It’s a local brand here in the Philippines but for me it’s one of the best. The reason I like it is because the taste is just right. It’s sweet but not too sweet. It’s in small packages so it remains crispy …
Dole Mango Chunks
Dole Mango Chunks is a half size bag of frozen, generous cuts of mango. When it comes to frozen fruits, I like to stick with Dole because they have a great reputation when it comes to providing fresh fruits. I purchase the Dole mango chunks quite often because I …
Mrs. Freshley’s Patriotic: Grand Honey Bun
Wow oh wow, Mrs. Freshley’s Patriotic: Grand Honey Bun is quite filling! The honey bun is a real good size and I would definitely not consider it to be a light treat. It is a treat to have with my breakfast though as it adds some sweet flavor to …
Kellogg’s Frosties

Our Family brand Frozen Shrimp
I was in the mood for shrimp last night and decided to pull a box out of our freezer from the brand Our Family. This was the first time I had tried this brand and wasn’t sure what to expect. But, overall, it wasn’t terrible.
We were making something else …
Smuckers Strawberry Preserves
Well, it’s time for a classic. I’ve been going on a binge here lately buying local to me (Southeast Texas) or independent brands particularly in the jam/jelly/honey butter department, I thought it was time for a change. Along with my usual essential provisions at the grocery store, (Bacon, beer, …
Todays Farm Freeze Dried Apple Cinnamon Wedges

Ronco SanCrispino Red Wine
I don’t usually drink wine because I don’t drink any alcohol often but sometimes I really like to take a glass of wine after lunch or in the evening, specially because they say that red wine is good for your hear and the blood.
I saw the commercial on TV …
Cheerios
I really like Cheerios. They arn’t a particuarly flavorful cereal, but there is somehting about them that is still a little familiar and tasty to me. I’ve been eating cheerios for ears, possibly since I was small. They dont have all the sugar that other cereals have, and really …

Redi-Serve Chicken Patties are sold in convenient packs of four. The patties are round-shaped, made of white chicken meat. They are breaded and fully cooked, all you need to do is to microwave them on “High” for one minute. My husband likes chicken sandwiches, so he uses these patties …
Sari Amaretto Arino

Idahoan Four Cheese Mashed Potatoes
I’ve been wanting to try Idahoan Four Cheese Mashed Potatoes for a very long time, but only just recently decided to give it a go. As my readers know, convenience is my driving goal with foods, from preparation to cooking and through cleanup. I judge just about …
Michael Cutler Brand Onions
I have a love/hate relationship with onions. I love them. My eyes hate them. It’s the type of relationship most people have with onions. Every time I cut into one I find myself having to leave the room because they are so strong. It takes my eyes at least …
Bentley’s Peach Flavored Tea
Along with my love for coffee, I have a very strong love for teas. There are so many brands and flavors out there that I enjoy trying all of them. Recently, I have tried Bentley’s Peach flavored tea and have fallen in love with its exquisitely delicious taste.

Little Debbie Coffee Cakes - Apple Streusel

Hereford Luncheon Meat 12 oz.
Hereford luncheon meat is another great emergency food. I take it with me when I don’t have time to cook my lunch for work. It’s also great for camping.
It’s a little bit pricier than its competition, Holiday luncheon meat, but Hereford definitely has a taste advantage. …
Popcorn Indiana Cheddar Cheese Popcorn
Product Description: Bag of pre-popped popcorn with aged cheddar cheese. Available at Walgreens for around $3.

Fresh & Easy Pecan & Fruit Pieces Chocolate
I bought this huge chunk bar of a chocolate at Fresh and Easy and for only $4.99 at a heavy hunky 500 grams (that’s half a pound already!) I can share it with my family and with leftovers still.
This huge chocolate bar had pecan and fruit pieces in …

Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Butter Pecan

Like most kids did, I was able to try the popular cereal when I was a kid. I really liked the taste and have eaten it several times since then. However, I have always found it to be very difficult to eat. This was because after …
Selecta Gold Series Ice Cream: Vanilla Almond
When I saw the commercial for this ice cream flavor, it looked like a perfect combination for me. I like vanilla and I like almonds. However, I reserved my judgment until I got to taste this one as I am not too keen about the caramel. Although, it said …
Selecta Coffee Almond Cookie Ice Cream
This is one of Selecta’s newest flavors added to their selection, the Coffee Almond Cookie is yet the best flavour I have tasted so far. Being a local brand and still managing to uphold their status and reputation by creating new delicious flavours make them a competitive and top …

Cafe Bustelo Coffee
I recently bought some Cafe Bustelo grinded coffee beans to replace my Maxwell house coffee and I have just loved it. The Maxwell house cofee was ok, but it was a lot more expensive to buy and didn’t really think it tasted all that great. It said it …
Nature’s Own Light Honey Wheat Bread
I found this bread on sale at Publix a few months ago and bought it because I tend to use the lower calorie breads on my diet. Nature’s Own light breads all have only 40 calories and are high in fiber, a big plus for me. The slices looked to …
Michelob Ultra

Burger King’s Hershy sundae pie
This is by far one of the best pies I have ever had. Every time I get one from burger king I always want more. It taste amazing. It has cool whip, chocolate. It’s really really good. There’s nothing about it that I don’t like. I could eat these …
Spaghetti with Roasted Crabs
If you love mixing up your spaghetti with different add-ons, consider roasted crabs. It is a good option, and quite nutritious, I must say. Crabs are a real good alternative rather than just meat, chicken and fish.
If you go anywhere like in restaurants and stuff, it’s …

My family loves chicken strips, and I wanted a good dipping sauce to accent the chicken strips for dinner. I wanted to find something special and new to make dinnertime a little more fun. And Kikkoman makes an attractive looking plum sauce, well on the grocery shelf anyway. So …
Fruit Pebbles cereal
Fruity Pebbles. They’re one of those things you never really think to say “Hey, there should definitely be a review on this”. However, that thought process only lasts up until your first bowl. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Fruity Pebbles are the …
Biscotti Baileys Cream Liqueur
Baileys is definitely my drink of choice and I love the majority of new flavours which are available now. I have recently however sampled the Biscotti flavour and must say I’m not completely impressed with it, the flavour seeming extremely harsh compared to other Baileys and spoiling the …

Clancy’s Pretzel Rings
ALDI Food Market stores stopped carrying Clancy’s Pretzel Sticks a couple of months back and replaced them with Clancy’s Pretzel Rings. Now I liked the sticks because they were always fresh and salty, and I figured that although these pretzels were a different shape, they were still sold under …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Egg Custard
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Egg Custard is a flavor that I did not enjoy. I was expecting a different flavor from this pudding than I received. I expected this pudding to be sort of along the lines of eggnog, but what I got was a flavor that, well, lacked …

When it comes to brand name mashed potatoes I stick to Betty Crocker, but I liked the fact that the loaded potatoes had bacon and chives in it.
