Wrigley’s Orbit Complete Sugar Free Chewing Gum
I like to have some gum on me at all times as not only is it good for freshening my post-cigarette breath but it helps to clean my teeth. Gum acts like a mini mouthwash as it gets your saliva flowing and dislodges bits of food remaining after …

Mekeni Picnic Hotdogs
I can’t believe this hotdog. I really appreciate my compatriots’ coming up with this product. It’s surprisingly cheap though its taste can compare with the leading hotdog brands like Purefoods and Swift. And it’s not packed in a ‘just like that’ manner. Then I thought, maybe the texture won’t …
Lucky Charms
We do not buy Lucky Charms very often, as we tend to stick with cereal without the marshmallows. We always worry that if we buy them the cereal that has marshmallows, then our seven-year-old and our nearly two-year-old will pick the marshmallow pieces out and leave the cereal, so …

Deluxe Mixed Nuts
Great Value Deluxe Mixed Nuts contains cashews, almonds, Brazil nuts, and pecans, slightly salted. A 10 oz can costs $3.96, which I think is a little too much for the Great Value brand, usually so well-priced. The mixed nuts are very good as a party snack. When we have …

Ghirardelli chocolate is well-known for being a high-quality chocolate and baking bar. I love using Ghirardelli chocolate bars to bake, and sometimes I get them to munch on when I have a chocolate craving! Recently I bought their Semi-Sweet variety to make brownies.
Sometimes I can’t help it; when …
IBARAKU Milk COFFEE
By the coffee’s name IBARAKU, you can directly associate it with Japan. But based on one of the Philippine’s local dialect, “BARAKU” means something grand or fully grown, which can be associated with something strong and active. But then, this coffee is not that strong by its name …

Great Value Fig Bars
The Great Value Fig Bars can be an addicting treat, but just because the bars are made with real fruit, doesn’t mean it’s safer to overindulge. While these fig bars might not be as loaded with sugar and artificial ingredients as some of the other stuff down the cookie …
Cadbury Bourneville Dark Chocolate

Duncan Hines Chocolate Lover’s Walnut Brownie Mix
Before I discovered Betty Crocker’s chocolate brownie mixes, I used to bake with Duncan Hines’ Chocolate lover’s walnut brownie mix; I’m glad I discovered Betty Crocker because I’ll never use Duncan Hines’ brownie mixes again.

Usually I opt for Mayfield’s Iced Tea, since I’ve grown accustomed to the flavor. But one day I decided to try the store brand iced tea, just to see how “disgusting” it was-so that I’d have a reason to go back to buying the Mayfield brand. …
Wylwood canned potato slices
I recently purchased a can of Wylwood potato slices when I did our monthly shopping trip for canned vegetables. This was the first time I have bought this brand and wasn’t really sure what to expect. But, it turned out to be worth the money.
The potatoes both came in …
Three Barrels French Brandy
One of the first drinks that could be termed —˜spirits’ in present-day terms was —˜cognac’. Now the French lay claim to many inventions and they have every right to do so. The first moving film was made by a Frenchman (strangely enough, it was filmed in a front garden …
