Haribo Starmix (Mini’s)
Haribo Starmix Mini’s are tiny plastic bags of various Haribo jelly sweets (candies). All the kids I know love them, and quite a few parents do too, even though they probably don’t want to. So there is some truth to the jingle “kids and grown-ups love it …
DiGiorno For One - Supreme Pizza
I must admit that where pizza is concerned, I’m basically a sausage and pepperoni type. I have flings from time to time with Canadian Bacon or something, but when I buy it, I tend to stick with what is tried and true. I’ve already reviewed DiGiorno For …

Original Mini Wheats cereal
As a kid, I mostly liked sugary cereals, if given the option. But those aren’t very healthy. Mini Wheats are a good compromise cereal, because they are a little bit sweet but mostly wheat. So not the most healthy in the world, but a pretty good start to a …
FISHER PREMIUM WHOLE CASHEWS
Why have half a cashew when whole cashews are so well priced? I use cashews in a lot of my Oriental cooking, and my husband thinks they are what television was invited for…….to munch really good cashew nuts!
The Fisher Premium While Cashews come in a can that is bright …
hint - Tropical Punch
Tropical Punch is a flavored water drink from hint and it is one that I do not particularly care for. The reason I was not really satisfied with this flavored water is because I did not care for the tropical fruit flavors that were infused with the water. I …
Del Monte Fruit Chillers Sorbet Glacial Mango
I don’t particularly care for mangos, but oddly enough, I do care for this mango sorbet. I guess it has to do with the sorbet being at a frosty temperature and the texture of the treat being really similar to sherbet and Italian Ice. The flavor of a mango …
Nestle Mini Marshmallows Hot Cocoa Mix
For hot cocoa lovers, Nestle Mini Marshmallows Hot Cocoa Mix with Rich Chocolate Flavor is a winner. Boasting it contains “Natural Antioxidents” (of which I can’t personally attest), perhaps more importantly it has a nice and smooth flavor with miniature marshmallows sprinkled generously throughout. It is 99.9% caffeine free …
Eggo Pancakes
Eggo Pancakes make it possible to have great pancakes without the mess of making batter and frying them in your frying pan. I really like these pancakes just because they areeasy to transport, and taste great.
They come in a box just like you would get waffles in and come …
Coke Zero
Let me admit up front that I’m a member of the Pepsi generation. I love it. When I was very young, though, my family drank coke. Then we discovered pepsi, and coke disappeared from our house. Since then, the times I’ve had coke can be …
Thinkfruit Dried Fruit Cinnamon Apple Snacks
I do not know why these dried fruit apple snacks taste so bad —“ but, they do. The manufacturer says they use granny smith apples —“ which may be the problem because granny smith apples tend to be a little more tart than other apples. In any …
Pringles Potato Crisps - Barbecue
These Pringles potato crisps taste pretty good! If you are someone that enjoys the flavor of barbecue, then I believe you will enjoy the flavor of these chips! They really do remind me of the flavor of barbecue sauce and barbecued food! Pringles certainly was not skimpy when it …
Talenti Gelato Sicilian Pistachio
Talenti is my favorite brand of gelato or ice cream, and despite the high price, I typically seek it out at the grocery store above all other ice creams. The Sicilian Pistachio flavor is my favorite for any time of the year because its sweet and nutty with a …
Snickers Bars With Almonds
When I first saw Snickers bars with almonds, I thought, “that’s the thing for my husband.” He hates peanuts, so he wouldn’t touch regular snickers bars. So I bought some of this new almond variety. I was right, my husband did enjoy them. As to myself, I prefer regular …
Kashi GOLEAN Toasted Berry Crumble Cereal
I love yogurt with granola sprinkled over the top, but I wanted to try something new so I bought a box of the Kashi GOLEAN Toasted Berry Crumble Cereal and sprinkled a cup of that cereal over my plain yogurt instead with some fresh berries. To my surprise it …
Totinos Pizza
If you are looking for a decent dinner, but dont have a lot of money to spend, then Totinos pizza is an excellent choice. These pizzas usually retail for a little over $1 a piece and sometimes you can catch them on sale for as little as $.75. …
Tost K plus bread
This bread comes in a transparent wrapping, the slices are really thin and although the subtitle on the wrapping says bread with prolonged freshness I’d rather call it extra dry bread. There are 20 really dry slices in the wrapping and if you don’t have bread at home and …
Slim-Fast Optima Cappuccino
The Slim-Fast Optima which is different than the original Slim-Fast drinks, is wonderful! Not only does it have fewer calories (180)compared to the original, but, it also controls hunger longer! The flavor of the Cappuccino Delight is yummy. You feel like you are cheating while you are drinking it. …
McDonald’s Big Mac
There is no denying the fact that these are tasty hamburgers, but they are probably one of the worst things you can order when you go out for fast food.
The Big Mac is a two-burger sandwich served with lettuce, cheese, pickles and Big Mac sauce, which I just get …
Wegmans Mandarin Oranges
The search for good canned fruit can sometimes be difficult. There are many degrees of quality when looking for canned fruit. Some brands are good some of the time, some are bad all the time, while some are mostly good. One canned fruit product that I feel …

Finally, local stores are starting to stock more German candies! As a girl who grew up with my German mother, I got used to having delicious snacks sent over from her relatives. In fact, I got spoiled by this. So when I moved out on my …
Brie en Brioche with Mushrooms
I have always loved Brie cheese and when I found a pastry product by Damafro called Brie en Brioche with Mushrooms I decided to buy it on sale for $1.99CDN. I have to say this 225gram box was attractively packaged showing half a round pastry with a rich layer …

Nescafe Instant Coffee
I am an absolute coffee lover and for me there is nothing like the first cup of sweet, black coffee in the morning. It has to be Nestlé’s Nescafe Instant Coffee. I can’t drink anything else in the morning, not even brewed coffee. I like brewed coffee for the …
Nestle Ideal Evaporated Milk
Nestle Ideal Milk is more or less a milk from my mother’s breast. I think almost all Ghanaians are bread to like Idea milk, and now it comes in many different varieties. My favorite is the oldest one I know, the Ideal Milk Evaporated milk original. Package in tin …
Martha White Cotton County Buttermilk Cornbread Mix
Martha White Cotton County Cornbread Buttermilk Cornbread Mix is a great value. I buy a six ounce package of this cornbread mix for only eighty five cents at my local Harvest Foods store. However, this particular store is notorious for their over priced merchandise and I imagine …

I love Hershey’s Shell Topping. I first came across this product when looking for a chocolate ice cream topping at the grocery store. I love making chocolate covered strawberries, so when I saw the Hershey’s Shell Topping, I thought I might try it with my strawberries. The …

In my lifetime, I’ve tried a variety of cake mixes, and I suppose that at various times, different brands have been my favorite. Lately, I’ve been purchasing Betty Crocker Super Moist Milk Chocolate Cake Mix off and on.

Bristot Classic Esspresso Coffee
I really can’t do without the coffee in the morning, it is actually the first thing I do when I open my eyes to go and put the moka on the stove to boil. I like to have a lot of coffee at home so that it never happened …
Entenmann’s Little Bites 100 Calorie Chocolate Chip Muffin
Entenmann’s Little Bites 100 Calorie Chocolate Chip Muffins turned out to be a disappointment. I thought that perhaps these chocolate chip muffins would be a little more moist than the regular calorie counterpart, but these turned out to be just as dry. I do not like dry muffins because …
Milk Duds
Milk Duds are one of my all time favorite candy, so I just had to write a review about them. Milk Duds are sold at most stores, and you can get them at movie theaters. They make a great snack to eat while watching a movie, or playing video …
Goya Black Beans
I really like Goya black beans. I like to make nachos pretty often and when I do I always use goya black beans in the mix for them. They taste great and are a wonderful addition to the nacho concoction.
I highly recommend making some black beans and adding them …

Amy’s is a super company that delivers organic, healthy foods. I love pesto and tortellini. When I saw Amy’s Pesto Tortellini Bowl in my grocery store’s frozen section, I bought it immediately.

Messmer Fruit-Herbal Tea bags (Wildberry flavor)
Sipping warm drinks before bedtime helps drift me off to sleep. I found that dairy is not good for my body, but occasionally this sends me to the kitchen pining for milk. I deliberately cut down dairy in my diet and was persuaded to try herbal teas instead. …
Pop-Tarts Splitz
I am a big fan of Pop-Tarts pastries so I decided to buy the new half chocolate, half strawberry Splitz box. Previously I enjoyed both chocolate and strawberry flavors, but I wondered if it would be a good combination if they were mixed. The pastry itself has chocolate filling …
Almond Crunch from The Classic Confections

Haywards 5000 Beer
Haywards 5000 is not so strong beer but very famous Indian brand with a truly catching label which is famous from decades. I had this tasted at an Indian restaurant along with a buffet. Along with the buffet Haywards 5000 was a perfect combination because of its extra smoothness …
Big League Chew
Have you ever heard of Big League Chew? If you haven’t, I don’t blame you, it’s not all too common to find everywhere you go like other candies these days. Big League Chew is gum in the form of little strands, kind of like spaghetti, but a little bit …
Marie Callender’s Original Corn Bread Mix
How I missed corn bread! Growing up, my grandmother was great at making corn bread, and I just loved it. My father made a mean corn bread, too. Actually, so do I, but I just hate the mess anymore. The best corn bread was always …
Eggo Waffles Cinnamon Toast Family Pack 24 Sets of 4 Waffles
My kids love waffles. I’m not always sure it is the waffles so much as the syrup, but with Eggo waffles, we can’t seem to go wrong. I do know for certain that the Cinnamon Toast waffles we tried recently were a bit hit in our household, because neither …
Breyers Extremely Creamy Chocolate
Breyers Extremely Creamy Chocolate is a definite improvement over the regular chocolate variety, although I still believe that there is work that needs to be done before I would consider Breyers to be the company that I would turn to for the most delicious chocolate ice cream available at …
Trader Joe’s Mini Croissants
Eight croissants come in the Trader Joe’s Mini Croissants package and the package retails for four dollars. Four dollars wasn’t a price I was willing to pay for these croissants, so I waited for them to be on sale before I gave them a try. In turned out though …
