Betty Crocker Hershey’s Frosted Supreme Brownie Mix
I purchased this brownie mix for $3.15 at my local grocery store Friday night. We were entertaining guests and rather than spending close to $6.00 for the already made up brownies I decided it would be thriftier (And homier I might add.) to just make my own. As soon …
Tesco Value Salted Peanuts
These salted peanuts are from Tesco’s own range of Value products and you can buy a big 200g bag for a mere 27p. I love peanuts because they are so filling and as I am a vegetarian I can up my protein intake as well, and I recently …
Priano Angel Hair Pasta Nests
Product Description: Angel Hair Pasta in the shape of bird’s nests. My parents found a nice-sized box of these at one of our local stores for around $2.
What I liked about this product: The bird’s nest shape wasn’t something that really attracted me to this product at first. But, …
Carmel Apple Coffee
I have recently tried Carmel Apple coffee from Cafe Brunches of Mansfield Ohio. I had a cup of the Carmel Apple blend and enjoyed its delicious and fragrant beans so much that I ordered a half a pound of whole coffee beans to go, for about four fifty …
Bernatello’s Ham & Cheese Bernie’s Bites
Product Description: Box of 12 breaded bites filled with pieces of ham and Swiss cheese. I found these at one of our local grocery store for $2.50 a couple days ago and made them as a mid-afternoon snack for my wife and me yesterday.
What I liked about this product: …
The Co-operative Golden Delicious Apples
I buy one of these gorgeous golden delicious apples from The Co-operative convenience store frequently as a snack and I pay 35 pence each. This is from the fresh fruit section of the store and you can obviously have as many as you want, they are loose and …
Jacks Frozen Pizzas
I purchase Jacks frozen pizzas because they are the brand that is on sale at the local grocery stores most often. We usually buy two or three and save them for days when neither of us feels like cooking.
Because of the price, you can be sure the Jacks pizzas …
Milky Way Candy Bar
I’ve always strongly associated Snickers with Milky Way candy bars. Aside from being from the Mars company, the only reason I can think of for doing so is that my mom loved both. I’m more of a Snickers person, but a good Milky Way Candy Bar is …
Yoshi’s Cookie
This is one cookie that I wish I would have stayed away from! I thought this would be a fun puzzle game because Nintendo generally invests a good amount of time and effort into their video games - especially Mario games. Boy was I ever disappointed! This is a …
Kingsmill Tasty Wholemeal Bread
Kingsmill Tasty Wholemeal is one of my favorite brown breads. I have just purchased a loaf from Tesco for about £1. It was a pretty large loaf but it has ‘Medium’ on the label so that might refer to the slices, but anyway I thought it was …
Hunts Traditional Spaghetti Sauce
I am a huge fan of Hunts spaghetti sauce. I love the fact I can buy a big can of it for about a buck (where other brands cost as much as $3) and it gives me the versatility to doctor it up a bit to make my sauce …
Quorn Peppered Steaks
I have been a vegetarian for many years now and although I do not miss meat in the slightest and I do not even see it as food anymore but —˜dead bodies’, I do sometimes lack the imagination to know how to put a well balanced vegetarian meal together. …
Keebler Fudge Stripes
This is my favorite cookie, ever. It may be a simple kind of cookie, but it sure is a real tasty one! The cookie is very easy to bite into and break off, although I wouldn’t classify it as a soft cookie. The underside of the cookie is coated …
DELIGHT COFFEE CREAMER
When it comes to coffee, everyone seems to like it a different way. If this were not true, all those espresso places probably wouldn’t be doing so well! We like to have coffee that is home made, most of the time, and when we do, we enjoy adding International …
Pizza Hut Stuffed Crust Pizza
I’m not sure if you have gone to the trouble and huge expense of ordering a Stuffed Crust Pizza from Pizza Hut, but if you have not, you need to at least try it once. Of course you won’t want to do this ever again. The price …
Judge Chewing Gum
Judge chewing gum is one of the most favorite chewing gums of the kids here in the Philippines. My son loves it. I too have come to like it. Well, it’s in small square size. But what I like about it is it’s minty flavor. It’s not too strong …
Ritz 100 Calorie Snack Packs
Dieting has come a long way in recent years in offering great tasting foods with few calories. One fad that has been catching on and gaining momentum is the portion controlled way of dieting. Basically, you’re eating real food that tastes great but you’re just limiting yourself to regular …
KFC Wrapstar
Every few months, KFC introduce a new product to their menu. Since they tend to advertise these quite heavily, and suggest you order them when you’re at the counter, I usually buy the new sandwich (or drink) and check if it’s edible. Sadly, with KFC’s latest product, the so-called …
Nescafe Coffee Vending Machine
Never do I like drinking a cup of coffee but when I started working during night shift I begin to appreciate it. Aroma of a coffee really can make me feel awake and kicks away the negative vibes around me. I never smoke, I don’t like its smell so …
Piattos Roadhouse Barbecue Chips
Piattos Roadhouse Barbecuq is a new flavor of the “Piattos” potato chips. I have always enjoyed eating Piattos as a child and I have never outgrown enjoying this snack even if there are quite a lot of competitors around selling snacks much cheaper than that of Piattos. Piattos is …
Presto Creams
Presto peanut butter is my favorite biscuit, if not skyflakes fit or Ritz. Presto is a local biscuit and snacks brand that has been around for quite some time already. I can even still remember when I was in school that my mom used to buy some of its …
Stouffer’s Extra Cheese French Bread Pizza
Stouffer’s Extra Cheese French Bread Pizza is an enjoyable treat that I think cheese lovers will be satisfied with. I definitely consider myself a cheese lover and I find this pizza to be an enjoyable one to have. I think it is one of the best frozen French bread …
BioBest Yoghurt
This yoghurt comes in a variety of flavours. I have tried strawberry, raspberry, and peach, and so far, prefer peach. Strawberry is nice too. I have tried the individual serving packs - those small containers meant for one snack.
I bought this yoghurt because I had a coupon. I figured …
Almond Breeze Almond Milk by Blue Diamond
I started drinking Almond Breeze by Blue Diamond, it’s milk made from Almonds and tastes different from soy milk and also doesn’t have the added estrogen which I thought would be ideal for my husband.
They currently offer Plain, Vanilla and chocolate. I love them all quite honestly. I rotate …
Cedevita Orange
Cedevita is a drink made by a Croatian Cedevita d.o.o. producer of instant drinks. It comes in powder and you can find it in different flavours orange, lemon, pineapple, mandarin and forest fruits but the original flavours were lemon and orange and I kind a got used to those …
Taco Bell Crush Wrap Supreme
Ok now I think that they Crush Wrap Supreme from Taco Bell is probably my favorite thing on their menu. It’s my favorite item to order if I am ever at Taco Bell. The crunchy tortilla shaped like a stop sign looks so cool! But is does not only look …
Hershey’s Hugs
If you have not tried Hershey’s Hugs yet, you definitely should! They are a branch off from the standard Hershey’s Kisses, only it’s regular milk chocolate “hugged” in white chocolate. What a way to dress up a regular Hershey’s Kiss! These are much better, and they …
The food doctor
The food doctor is an essential seed and nutritious seeds which consist of natural seeds like the sunflower seeds, pumpkin, dried soya beans and pine nuts which are all mix together in one plastic bottle which is known to be a healthy alternative snack food. I usually get …
Miracle noodles
I’ve been trying to cut down on carbs. I saw an advertisement for these (also known as Shirataki noodles) and thought I’d give it a try. I purchased them directly from the Miracle Noodle website, which was from CA to PA. The order took five days to …
Betty Crocker Super Moist cake mix
I really like Betty Crocker supermoist cake mix. It is something that is easy to use and is a quality product. I have had several of their mixes and have never had one that I thought was bad. My latest purchase was Betty Crocker Supermoist White cake mix.
It makes …
Contessa Green Cuisine Meals
While I like the concept behind Contessa Green Cuisine meals; make a frozen food product while working to reduce pollution, I have to say I found myself unimpressed when I had one of the dinners last night.
I had the Chicken Stir Fry and it had zero taste. It was …
Old Glory Red Table Wine
We bought a bottle of Old Glory Red Table Wine at our local Fox Valley Winery. The standard, 750 ml bottle was priced a little over $13. We had tasted the wine before, so we knew what to expect when we opened the bottle at home for a nice …
McDonalds McCafe Frappe
Some days, when I feel like I’ve been constantly on the go and there is no promise of a break anytime in the near future, I need a little pick me up. Something that will keep me going, taste delicious and not burn a hole in my wallet. My …
Papa Johns Pizza
Alright I am originally from the North and I am use to a great Pizza for a great price. You can get a large pizza for 10 bucks and we are not talking Papa Johns large..we are talking a 16 inch pizza loaded with mouth watering mozzarella cheese,just the …
Great Value Apple Juice
Just to make a difference, I purchased an apple drink one time when I shopped for food at SM Hypermarket, SM Makati Philippines. My family gets used to drinking soft drinks and Iced Tea; sometimes if there are fruit juices we drink it too. Sometimes we only drink cold …
Taco Bell Cheesy Nachos
I saw an item on the menu at taco bell. The item was called the Cheesy nachos. I figured with the word cheesy, they have to be at least somewhat good. I was wrong completely. When I got the nachos, it wasn’t even nachos. It was some tortilla chips …
C2 Cool & Clean Green Tea Drinks
I live in a tropical country wherein it is very important to keep the body hydrated all the time. Aside from drinking pure water, I also drink healthy beverages at times and even carbonated drinks. However, carbonated drinks are not just healthy for the body. Recently, I have come …
Lao Zhong Zhong Ngo Hiang
100% Hand-made, this is one of the reasons why I like to patronize this stall. According to this stall owner, he refused to buy from suppliers, aside from the poorer quality, the fact that most of the Ngor Hiang that you eat is the Hokkien(dialect) style Ngor Hiang.The owner is …
Pringles
I’m old enough to remember when Pringles first came out on the market; or at least became popular enough where people actually heard of them.
And, throughout the years, the chips have made some interesting claims ranging from being whole chips because they are in a can and not in …
Sainsbury’s Chopped Tomatoes
This is another of those food cupboard staples that I try always to have at least a few units of in stock. Sainsbury’s, rather irritatingly to me, seem to have decided that cartons are a better way to sell these tomatoes than the traditional tins. I can understand that …
Cadbury Creme Egg
When Easter approaches, there’s just one thing that really stands out. It’s the craving of chocolate lovers everywhere. It’s the epitome of Easter candy. It’s the one must-have chocolaty treat. ‘It’ is Cadbury Creme Eggs.
Cadbury makes good chocolate treats anyway, but during this special season, …
Lays Cheesy Garlic Bread Flavored Potato Chips

I …
Mrs. Freshley’s Blueberry Cheese Danish
I really was not all that impressed with Mrs. Freshley’s Blueberry Cheese Danish. The reason I was not impressed is because the blueberry flavor was not nearly as terrific as I had hoped that it would be. Although there was most certainly a blueberry flavor to the danish, the …
Grace Thick and Creamy Macaroni and Cheese Elbows
In the summer when my brother was working at Grace Foods Limited, he was given a few food items to take home from a grab bag. One of these food items was one box of “Grace Thick and Creamy Macaroni and Cheese Elbows”. I can remember that even though …
Silk Pure Almond Milk: Original
As a fan of silk products I wasn’t hesitant in trying Silk Pure Almond Milk: Original. I’ve previously tried the vanilla flavored one and absolutely loved it. For a while I hadn’t considered that there was actually an original flavor until I saw it one day in the store. …
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar PB Stix
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar PB Stix turned out to be quite the disappointment for me. The reason I found them to be disappointing is because the flavor was not what I was expecting. Since this is a low calorie snack food, the snack food itself suffers …
Kenton Schoke Mousse
in Chocolate caught my eye. I was tired of traditional chocolate puddings, and thought this mousse might make an interesting desert for my family. It retailed for $2.99CDN.
Kenton�s packaging was quite ritzy, all red and gold and I was surprised to find I only needed to add a cup …
Boom Energy Drink
Just a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that a new energy drink named “Boom” seemed to become popular in my country Jamaica. I didn’t know who the makers or manufacturers were, and I never saw it advertising either, so it appeared to have appeared out of nowhere to …
Nandini salted butter
The Nandini is the name of the company, which produces many kind of milk products. The salted butter is one of a milk product produced by this company. We all use the nandini-salted butter for our sandwiches and even while cooking for some time. The quality …
