Pillsbury Quick Bread Pumpkin
The other day I tried baking two loafs of these for the very first time and I am very happy with the results. This pumpkin bread is truly delicious! Even more amazing is the fact that it tastes just like my grandmother’s zucchini bread that I remember from my …
Bakers Inn Sliced Bakery Bread
I am not at all hesitant to reveal that I have found the bread of all breads right at my local supermarket! Bakers Inn produces sliced breads that come in a brown bag, and they are fabulous. I really feel like I am eating fresh bread each …
Priya pickles
The pickles give the great taste for meals. It is really very boring for the Indians particularly to have the meals without any pickle along with the meals. And when we talk about the pickles we must also talk about the priya pickles. Because the taste …
Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns
Simply potatoes shredded hash browns were spotted by me at Albertsons and I got curious about that. If I can make hash browns at home easily, that would be a great thing for me because I eat hash browns from restaurants very often. So I decided to purchase it. …
Nescafe 3-in-1 Strong and Rich
I’ve been a coffee lover since I started working straight out of college. Since I’m not used to offices where the air cons are adjusted too low for me to tolerate, one of the things I do to warm myself up is by drinking mugs of coffee. We own …
Kroger Brand Strawberry Gelatin Dessert
I’m a real fan of gelatin desserts. I always like to buy them when I’m in the store because I can make them quickly, and when I have a sweet craving they always seem to satisfy them, regardless of what I have a craving for. So I stock …
Tina’s Burrito
I bought this frozen burrito in Albertson shop.In order to save time during morning hours i usually prefer ready to eat food like this.This frozen buriito doesnt take five minutes for preparation. you have to just keep it in oven.They are much delicious and the fillings …
Snyder’s of Hanover Cheddar Cheese Pretzel Sandwich
Despite Snyder’s of Hanover Cheddar Cheese Pretzel Sandwich having the word “pretzel” in the name of the product, these sandwiches are not really that crispy or crunchy. The small sandwiches are actually on the soft side. Also, these sandwiches are not too salty either. While that might not sound …
KFC Grilled Chicken
I wouldn’t necessarily call myself a KFC food addict, but they do have some great things on their menu that is worth ordering. There was a new item they were adding to their menu, grilled chicken, and they were doing this big promotion for it. KFC had never had …
V8 Splash Juice Drink
I am not the most avid vegetable eater, but like to try to get vegetable nutrients. I tried regular V8 and was highly disgusted at it’s high amount of tomato juice. I couldn’t enjoy it at all and figured I should try something more subtle. I saw the V8 …
Michelina’s Stroganoff
This frozen meal from Michelina’s almost hits the mark, but unfortunately comes up a bit short. I do like this frozen dinner as I feel it’s got an appetizing flavor and aroma, but the frozen meal itself suffers from only being average in terms of quality. The frozen meal …
Kellogg’s Eggo Maple Syrup Cereal
I did not care too much for this cereal. I did not find the maple syrup flavor to be all that rich or delicious. It certainly did exist, but the taste was not as great as I had hoped it would be. Frankly, I would prefer to eat an …
Blue Bell’s Strawberry and Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream
Ice cream is by far one of my favorite desserts, ever since I was a child there has never been a flavor that I did not like. That is until, I tried Blue Bells’ Strawberry and Homemade Vanilla flavor. I was disappointed when I tried this flavor, especially because …
Jose Ole Mini Tacos
I love tacos, but don’t like the mess involved with making them from scratch, and I just don’t get to Taco Bell as frequently as I’d like. I’ve tried various products in the past to try and satisfy my taco cravings, but Jose Ole Mini Tacos is the …
Lipton Pure Green Tea Bags
De-caffeneiting my self proved to be difficult. Getting the taste of tea for the first time was off-putting. I couldn’t imagine making a commitment to drinking tea every morning since I stopped the habit due to health reasons. Caffeine naturally has a propensity to increase the …
Tostitos Hint of Lime
The other day I tried this kind of tortilla chip again - I had had them before, but not really paid attention to the taste. They actually taste very good. I had thought lime sounded kind of strange for a chip flavour, but with the saltiness of tortilla chips, …
Bel Air Malibu Melt
One of my favorite sandwiches is turkey and bacon club. I can’t always get that, but I often like to get variations of it when I am in the mood for a sandwich. Even better sometimes is when it can be heated up or prepared in what …
Hormel Black Label Center Cut Bacon
Hormel continues to be a favorite brand for me, one I use often. I’m just rarely let down by any of their products. Thus, it’s not surprising that Hormel Black Label Center Cut Bacon is my favorite bacon brand.
Hormel’s bacon has a nice zest to it. …
Aldi Food Stores in Pittsburgh, PA
Aldi Markets are small self-service discount grocery stores with reasonable prices on bulk items, mostly dry goods and everyday staples. The stores I’ve visited in the Pittsburgh area remind me of tiny Costco-like stores. I just returned to the East Coast, so I don’t know how long …
Pringles Stix - Vanilla
Although I generally like the flavor of vanilla, I really do not care very much for this variety of the Pringles stixs. The reason I do not care very much for this variety is because the vanilla flavor is not all that rich or noticeable and also, vanilla flavored …
Gourmet Select Party Mix
This six ounce snack mix from the Dollar Tree is pretty bland. There are only three kinds of snacks to be found in a bag: garlic toast, pretzels and wheat snacks. There are no cheese snacks or sweet snacks, just basically salt and garlic snacks. The flavors thus don’t …
Wasabi Peas
When I am looking for a mid morning or mid afternoon snack, I want something that is crunchy, zesty and of course healthy so I won’t feel guilty eating it. One of my favorite snacks is Wasabi Peas, a crunchy wasabi coated pea that really puts a zing in …
Little Debbie Marshmallow Supremes
What is so supreme about these Little Debbie Marshmallow Supremes? The marshmallow flavor really needs some work and Little Debbie definitely needs to go back to the kitchen and re-work the recipe! Although there is some marshmallow flavor, it is no nearly rich and authentic enough to satisfy me. …
Complan for Growth drink
My height was quite normal at the age of 12, but I wanted to be tall than anyone else in the class. The Complan ads got my attention and I asked my mother to get me one. She first told me that there is nothing wrong with your height, …
Boli, the plantain snack
I love eating snacks especially during lunch hour. During my break hour, I put aside all the office job waiting for my attention. I hopped around the town looking for my favorite snack to eat. When it comes to snack-eating, It is not the usual meat pie, …
Horlicks Malties
It has been forever since I had a taste of Horlicks candies. The last time I was able to eat it was when I was probably 8 years old and now I am already in my 30’s! When I had a recent trip to Zamboanga City’s barter market, I …
Quakers Cereal Bar: Apple Crisp
I was on the go the day I grabbed this particular cereal bar. I wanted to put something on my stomach to break my fast, before starting my day. I’m usually not a fan to the whole soft bar scene, but I decided to give it shot. The only …
Vanilla Almond Tea
I was passing through my friend’s shop the other day and decided to have a shopping-spree rest. It was my pay day and I wanted to shop for some clothes, but not having the luck yet. And I chit-chatted awhile with her, whilst she was at the same …
Kellogg’s Special K Protein Meal Bar Chocolatey Chip
I personally do not care for this particular protein bar even though I enjoy chocolate chip cookies. For one thing, these do not taste quite like chocolate chip cookies in my opinion because they are harder and chewier than chocolate chips cookies and the dough flavor is not quite …
Gold Leaf Green Tea
I was having my pre menstrual syndrome again and I do not want to take any over the counter medicine. To ease the pain on my lower abdomen, I usually drink hot water or hot fruit juices. This time, I tried hot tea and the available brand here is …
McCormick Bac’n Pieces
Whenever I eat a salad, I must have bacon bits on it. I have tried many different brands of bacon bits, but McCormick’s Bac’n Pieces is my favorite so far. They are priced right and taste just like real bacon. They can make just about any kind of food …
Glutino Gluten Free Original Crackers
If you want a mild and light tasting cracker that is gluten free then this is a great choice. Unlike other gluten free crackers, this type is not powdery. These are very easy to eat and are very convenient to have when you are sick. I started to buy …
Taco Bell Soft Tacos
Sometimes when a person has sensitive teeth or even caps, a crunchy taco isn’t a smart food choice. It was during such a time that I expanded my horizons and first tried Taco Bell Soft Tacos. Since that first experience many years ago, I’ve often purchased this …
Hot Tamales
I’ve seen them for years, but I’ve only just tried them, and I’m glad I did. ‘Them’ are Hot Tamales. I spotted them at a convenience store I visited a while back and purchased them on a whim. Of course, they’re available at my supermarket, too. …
Cauldron Lincolnshire Veggie Sausages
Cauldron Lincolnshire Veggie Sausages are made with tofu and are much tastier than the Quorn vegetarian sausages in my opinion. I think what makes these —˜Lincolnshire’ sausages is the fact that they contain herbs which does make them really tasty. Also, I understand that Lincolnshire sausages are …
Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Cinnamon Roll
Although I found Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Cinnamon Roll to be relatively enjoyable, I see no real reason to purchase these when I can get Pillsbury cinnamon rolls at a better value price and those come out of the oven tasting more delicious than these do coming out of the …
Luna Energy Bars
What first caught my attention to try Luna Bars was the packaging, a cute little blue box with a dusky moon and starry sky. Luna Bars are formulated for women in general but men can eat them too. They have added folic acid calcium, and iron plus antioxidants and …
Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers
Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers are pretty good, although I do wish that the actual peppers were crispier and crunchier as opposed to be somewhat on the soft and soggy side. Oh well, one can only expect so much from frozen meals, I suppose. The green peppers do have a pretty …
Great Value Sweet & Salty Almond Granola Bars
I purchased these granola bars from Wal-Mart, they are the store brand and I wanted to compare them to the Nature’s Valley Sweet & Salty Granola Bars to see if I’d be able to get the same product for less money. I do not care what the packaging says …
Stewart’s Root Beer Soda
Stewart’s Root Beer Soda is a beverage I first tried just this last year, in 2008. It’s a costly item, so it’s something I only purchase when on sale, and then only occasionally. Where I live, on sale it’s $3.00 for four bottles, so it’s definitely premium …
O’boy Original chocolate drink mix
Even though the Halloween season isn’t over yet, I’m already feeling the Christmas vibe (mainly because it’s already snowing here in Russia). The hot chocolate and cookies season is officially opened in our house, so every evening our apartment smells like spices and chocolate. I usually make my own hot …
Belmont: Grape Seed Oil
I am a healthy life worshipper!!!I must admit it. And I lately, since I am living in Chile, I’ve been using grape seed oil for cooking. And I always use this Brand: Belmont. I buy this oil in 1 litre bottle. The price is 2700 Chilean Pesos (around $5-6). …
Derby blue Zero Ace 1,5L
When it comes to juices I must say that I rarely find one that I like, I usually buy juices that are on discount so this time I’ve found Derby blue Zero Ace for 1,19 Euro and holds 1 and a half litres of juice. You actually don’t even …
Lady’s Choice Mayonaise
When it comes about salad, I always rely on this Lady’s Choice Mayonnaise. Nothings compares when it comes to mayonnaise. This kind of mayo Ladys Choice is really good, taste so good. I always make egg sandwich and I always put Ladys Choice Mayonnaise on it. We had so …
Splenda
When products are flavored with Splenda, I acutally do enjoy them. They generally do not have that infamous diet taste, but rather closely resemble products that are made with regular sugar. I have found that the benefit of Splenda is that it obtains far less calories, and …
Coconut Water by Healthy Pinoy product
I was curious about this product when I saw it on the shelf of the Filipiana section at the mall. I love coconut water and had been my source of go-to especially on extreme warm or hot weather in the country. Coconut water is thirst quencher if the nearest …
Bellona Choco and Noisettes Mueslli Crousti
I went to Lidl the other day. There you have a lot of cheap and good stuff so I like to go there. I eat muesli in the morning and I particularly like the crusty ones with pieces of Hazelnuts and chocolate. I usually but Vitalis but I saw …
Hershey’s Sticks
I recently found Hershey’s sticks in the candy isle at the grocery style. I was looking for something with not too many carbohydrates that I could incorporate into my day without doing too much damage. I know I shouldn’t eat any sweet snacks, but every now and then I …
Best Choice Orange Blast Flavor Sports Performance Drink
Both of my sons play sports, so we are at some sort of athletic field almost everyday of the week. They do drink a lot of water, but they also enjoy sports drinks. I do not mind buying them because I know they help replace lost electrolytes, but they …
