I do quite a lot of my shopping at the Co-op, or the Co-operative as they have relatively recently rebranded themselves. I am supportive of their policies on fairness and environmental concern, and find the shops convenient. Oddly, however, I do not buy most of my crisps from there, …

I don’t normally eat at Taco Bell. But one day I decided to try out the loaded salad that I kept seeing on television. I was really surprised with how large the salad was. The shell was huge. And it’s served in this really …

These tea bags smell absolutely amazing when still in box! I like their pyramid shapes, they are supposed to provide better aroma development because of their shape, that be true or not they still look pretty interesting.
Tea has a decent aroma which is in my opinion just a bit …

Cedarlane Low Fat Garden Vegetable Lasagna is not a frozen dinner that I consider to be above average and for that reason, I will not be purchasing it again. After all the frozen dinners that I have tried over the years, I have developed a list of frozen dishes …

I don’t usually drink beer, actually I drink alcohol very rarely but somehow I really like to drink it when I am home alone, and as I am home alone really rarely that’s why I drink rarely. Today I was passing near a shop and I decided to buy …

Normally I am used to the Excelsior Cream Crackers made of flour, but recently my grandmother introduced me to the Excelsior Premium Bran and Oats Cream Crackers which she said was not only healthy, but didn’t cost much. Since I usually prefer foods made of bran to flour, I …

I’m sure I’m not the only person out there that has fallen into a rut from time to time when it comes to breakfast. Even the tried and true breakfast favorites like toast and eggs, cereal and a bagel, waffles and English muffins, bacon and eggs, and so on, …

Quattro is one of the best Ledo ice crem but I must say that I am really disappointed with these tastes. I usually like all 4 of these tastes but I don’t know why I don’t like them in Quattro.

Alaska Crema All Purpose Cream is not really my original brand but one Christmas season, I decided to give it a try when the other brand that I was using went out of stock in the grocery store near my place. I did not have the time to travel …

Pillsbury Grands! Extra Rich Cinnamon Rolls with Butter Cream Icing retail for about one dollar and seventy-five cents. The dough divides up into eight cinnamon rolls. The dough is sliced in advance, so all one has to do is pull apart each cinnamon roll and place the cinnamon roll …

Winn Dixie family size tea bags even though I can’t remember how much they costs do come with 24 tea bags in a box. It says you have to use one bag to get one quart of tea, this means you need four to make a gallon of tea. …

Growing up, all I knew was tap water. It stayed that way until just ten or fifteen years ago. I’m not sure why I suddenly decided to try water that I had to buy, but I’m sure there was a catalyst that I’ve forgotten.
After some experimenting, I …

If you are trying to be a more conscientious consumer than buying organic is great. Where to start? Is it necessary to replace everything in your cupboard? Not really it depends how far you want to go and how much you want to spend. I spend close to a …

I am a perpetual dieter and a person who loves to eat out. When they advertise healthier, low calorie meals at restaurants, I am one of the first to try them out. Recently I’d seen several ads for Applebee’s new menu items that had 550 calories or less, and …

Coca-Cola or Pepsi? Marketing surveys have made this a well-known question. Since I have drunk Diet Coke from a time before I can remember, I choose Coca-Cola. My grandfather used to buy cases of regular Diet Coke and caffeine free Diet Coke and give them out to everyone who …

I did not care too much for this Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Ozark Black Walnut. The reason I did not care too much for this ice cream is because there did not seem to be very many walnuts. I do not know if I just happened to get …

Made by Betty Crocker, Hamburger Helper is a skillet dinner mix. It is intended to supplement ground beef so as to produce a “home cooked” meal with a little help from this mix. Hamburger Helper comes in a variety of flavors and …

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 …

Tired of the “traditional” tortilla chip brands and looking for something different?
I was. I mean, don’t get me wrong, Tostitios and Dorritos are fine, but everybody’s had those (in the US anyway.) I was looking to try someone more “craft” and local/regional to Texas and I found them—¦Julio’s family …

First of all, Gevalia does have a good product, at least most of it is and I love the free 12 cup coffemaker I received. I specially like the fact that I do not get an acid refulx from drinking it, but they sent out a special Christmas Coffee …

I am a fanatical tea critique (especially of green and white tea) and recently received a 8.8oz bag of Matcha Green Tea powder. It was approximately 20 dollars and is a generous amount. I brewed my first cup properly by letting the boiling water subside then poured into tea …

The Snack Factory - Buffalo Wing Pretzel Crisps did not impress me all that much. I do like spicy seasonings on foods, but apparently, spicy seasonings do not belong on pretzels, according to my taste buds. From the first crisp that I tried to the last out of the …

Campbell’s has always made high-quality soups. When I was little, one of my favorite meals was a can of tomato soup with a grilled-cheese sandwich (and a big dill pickle on the side). But as I grew older, I started sampling more soups. And once I became a college …

This product cost me only $1 so I wasn’t expecting …

Okay. I admit it. I was suckered in by the health nuts, and finally gave up my stubbornness and decided to try this infamous Silk that everyone’s been talking about. Soy milk sounded rather repulsive to me, so I was really pretty hesitant to even allow …

Snapple Lemon Iced Tea is by far my favorite brand and flavor of iced tea. It is the perfect blend of bitter and sweet with an excellent consistency. Snapple is not to watery or too thick. There are many other flavor such as blueberry, peach, and …

Just the mention of Curry gets my mouth watering. The aromatic blend of spices and ingredients bursting with flavor cooked to perfection and served with Rice or Indian flat bread, there is nothing comparable.
The key to making a delicious Chicken Curry lies not only in the preparation method but …

Mentos Mint chewable is the chewable candy that I prefer to eat or to chew because I believe and I experience the taste that it gave to me and the minty feeling of my tongue during eating, chewing and after chewing it.
I remember, whenever I go to the school, …

When it comes to sweets I always think of Moti Choor Laddu. I don’t have a sweet tooth but I do love a really good and well made laddu.
Even though it is my favorite sweet I have never tried to make it myself. I just think …

We received a lovely Christmas present of Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate Squares. Ghirardelli, based in California, makes some of the best chocolate in the world.

I like Milka chocolate so when they have new, special or limited edition I just can’t resist them and I always buy them. Sometimes they are delicious but sometimes they kind a disappint me. That was the case with Milka Water which is actually Milka chocolate plus ,ilka cream …

Previously, I’ve had the spaghetti version of this product, but this week is the first time I’ve had Hormel Compleats - Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy. A friend of mine actually surprised me with a box full of the product, which I dearly appreciated.
Hormel Compleats is a …

Milano’s makes a few bistro-inspired entrees that I’m starting to try out. I love their spaghetti and meatballs offering and figured I’d give another product a try. Milano’s Italian Grille Lasagna with Meat Sauce is described as “’tender pasta with lawyers of seasoned beef and pork, ricotta …

I admit that my family loves to eat the sweet stuff despite all the health warnings. Part of the grocery run is walking up and down the chocolate and cookies aisle to see what we have not yet tasted. My mother spotted this Canadian product called Voortman Chunky …

You can buy them in different sizes. Not only the package changes size but it also changes shape. You …

One of my favorite TV dinner brands is Marie Callendar’s. This is going to sound weird, but these dinners don’t really taste like TV dinners, for the most part. Just because they go in the microwave doesn’t automatically make them bad. These dinners have a homestyle taste that I …

I have been eating New Zealand vegetarian cheddar cheese for as long as I can remember. It’s a popular and standard cheese in our country and it is perfect to use in almost any dish you are making or to just eat by itself or with a dash of …

Stouffer’s Sausage French Bread Pizza is not that hot. For one thing, the sausage looks like small pebbles. I do not like sausage that is cut up into super small pieces and then sprinkled on top of the pizza. That is not how I like my sausage pizza. I …

I am a regular drinker of Triple Leaf Tea White Tea. I truly love their brand of White Tea. This tea has helped me in my health life so much. It was once used and drank by Royalty and China. So why would you not drink it? Now a lot …

I recently received samples of Orbit Gum and its new packaging from BzzAgent. I was super excited because I am always chewing gum. I really liked the new packaging, it’s funky and much different than most gum packaging. Orbit left the colors the same [for example, the …

Folgers Instant Coffee is very good. This is the stuff that gets me going in the morning and it’s a very good product. Another great thing about this coffee is that it’s sold at a good price. It’s not to expensive. With a coupon you can get the Folgers …

When it comes to chocolate chip cookie dough, I am completely obsessed with it. If it wasn’t for the FDA or the CDC saying eating raw cookie dough can put you at risk for E. coli, I’d probably consume it on a regular. So, imagine the joy on my …
