Tesco Authentic Italian Quick Cook Fusilli Pasta
This is great pasta from Tesco’s own brand because it is so easy to cook and it just refuses to get stuck together. I am not a patient cook and sometimes I even forget to stir my pasta as I get involved in something else, but I have …
Kroger Value Peanut Butter Cookie Mix
Kroger Value Peanut Butter Cookie Mix makes very tasty peanut butter cookies! The peanut butter flavor is rich and real and present throughout the cookie. I can say with much confidence that the peanut butter cookies from Kroger are every bit as tasty and enjoyable as the name brand …
Bella Rosa Extra Virgin Olive Oil 250 ml
To me, Bella Rosa Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the best in its class. Because of it, I can’t imagine myself going back to Canola or any other vegetable oil for cooking.
For one, it doesn’t hurt when I’m frying something. You know how you get all …
Quaker Cinnamon Life Cereal
When I was younger, my parents and I had a compromise about which types of cereal I could eat. My mother would buy one box of “kid” cereal for every one box of healthy cereal that I ate. But once we discovered Quaker Cinnamon Life cereal, there …
Tradewinds Extra Sweet Tea
I discovered this specific type of sweet-tea a few days ago at a local corner store in Orono, Maine. I had gone with my boyfriend to find something to drink after we had been rock-climbing, and we were looking for something cheap (and tasty!) to quench our thirst. Sick …
Little Debbie Spirit of America Marshmallow Treats
It is a shame that the only thing that generally separates one marshmallow treat from another are the colors. These Little Debbie Spirit of America Marshmallow Treats are no different really from the other Little Debbie marshmallow treats which in turn are no different from Rice Krispies treats. This …
Kelloggs Coco Pops
Kelloggs Coco Pops are basically puffed rice —“ exactly the same as Rice Krispies —“ except they are brown and chocolatey, made with chocolate and added calcium. I loved these when I was a kid and although they do contain chocolate they do have a lot of nutritional …
Nescafe 2in1 Milk + coffee
The other day I was shopping and I saw these bunch of instant coffee 1 dose bags. As lately I really started liking these instant coffee drinks because they are much tastier than actual coffee and they are also much easier to prepare. You just have to pour some …
Munchies Ultimate Cheddar Mix
Munchies Ultimate Cheddar Mix is easily a big improvement over the Munchies Traditional Mix and that is largely in part due to the addition of the cheddar flavor. Even though cheddar is not a cheese that I have a whole lot of love for, I do find it to …
Del Monte Fruit to Go - Diced Peaches
For convenience, I prefer food that is individually packaged. It fits my lifestyle, even if sometimes it means it costs a little more. It’s actually more economical because instead of food going to waste, everything is optimized. This is especially true for canned fruits. I …
Inernational House of Pancakes (Ihop)
We were staying in Florida recently with family, and decided to go out for a meal one evening. As there were several young kids in our household, we decided that pancakes would be a popular choice. That was great with me, as pancakes are amongst my favourite …
Kernel Season’s Nacho Cheddar Seasoning
While you can find Kernel Season’s seasonings near the popcorn and other popcorn seasonings in most stores, the Kernel Season’s seasoning shakers don’t actually say “popcorn seasoning” on them. That’s because these seasonings can be sprinkled over more than just popcorn. I’ve used them on various kinds of potatoes, …
Galaxy Bubbles Milk Chocolate
We all know what lovely Galaxy milk chocolate tastes like as it has been around for ages —“ creamy and smooth —“ but this is Galaxy in a new form and I think it works well. Put it this way, I bought a packet of 4 of these …
McDonald’s Crispy Chicken Fillet
In the midst of price increases, we are bound to find ways on how can we make the most out of our hard-earned money. And it is in this time of crisis that my girlfriend and I came to know McDonald’s Crispy Chicken Fillet.
We have been hearing about it …
DRINK DIET LIPTON GREEN TEA, FLAVORED FOR ANTIOXIDENTS!
I am always thirsty. I drink quality drinks that give my body a boost in the health department, and I don’t spend a fortune doing it.
This week, I discovered, for the first time, the great taste of mixed berry Diet Green Tea made by the Lipton Tea Company! It …
Muddy Waters Cross Roads coffee
When it comes to coffee there is only one type I drink any more. That brand is Muddy Waters Crossroads. It simply has everything going for it and tastes quite unlike anything I have ever tried.
Crossroads is a dark roast, organic coffee that sells for approximately $10 …
Patrick Cudahy Breakfast Sausage Links
Product Description: Bag of 24 pre-cooked frozen sausage links. Available at one of our local grocery stores (I’m guessing it is only available at select stores) for about $3.50.
What I liked about this product: I have found, as far as breakfast goes at least, you can’t go wrong with …
Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream
I had no plans to buy ice cream when I first entered Tesco, but this Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream caught my eye because of the vibrant packaging and the fact Ben & Jerry’s is a famous name in ice cream. I had picked up the one with …
Nabisco Minto Oreo Fudge Cremes
I have always love the Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies that come around once a year. I sold them as a Girl Scout, and I’m now 44 years old. These Mint Oreo Fudge Cremes are almost exactly like them, and now I can have them any time of the …
Fruit by the Foot Variety Pack
This is an extremely handy dandy snack for work and school. It’s cheap, it’s delicious, and it’s easy to share. First of all, just like the rice krispies, I buy this in a really big box at Costcos. It’s only $10 for like 40 pieces and they would have …
Voortman Chunky Chip Cookies
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 …
Kras Tortica Choco Finger
I like sweet stuff very much. Although when I was little I preferred creamy chocolate stuff or just chocolate now I prefer cookies with chocolate of wafers but I don’t like them to be very sweet. Today my sister went to the shop and she came home with Kras …
Pringles Stix - Crunchy Wheat
Wheat, while it may not have very much flavor or cause mouths to water, is a pretty nutritious and important food product to have in one\’s diet. This flavor variety of Pringles Stix, if the word flavor is even appropriate here, is not something that is going to cause …
Home Style Select Sour Cream & Onion Potato Chips
Sour cream and onion are my favorite flavors to have on potato chips. The combination of sour cream and onion flavors makes for not so pleasant breath, but boy do the two flavors taste good together! These chips from the Dollar Tree have a strong sour cream and onion …
Mexican Casserole Bowl: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
The Mexican Casserole Bowl is one of my most favorite dishes that Amy’s makes. It is very easy to microwave and is so filling. Personally I would much rather buy one of these then go out to eat at a Mexican restaurants. It is really that good. I like …
Southern Grove Crunchy Fiesta Peanuts (Nine Point Five Ounce Bag)
Southern Grove Crunchy Fiesta Peanuts come in a nine point five ounce bag at ALDI Food Market stores for one dollar and fifty-nine cents. I only purchased one bag of these peanuts once a couple of weeks back, but the one bag I purchased was quite satisfactory. I enjoyed …
Coca Cola versus Pepsi
A common question that is asked when getting to know someone is “Which do you like better- Coca Cola or Pepsi Products?” My answer is always Pepsi, and I will tell you why.
I have been drinking pepsi for years and years now, and recently I have been drinking a …
LeanPockets Subs Sandwiches
I generally get Lean Pockets for times when I just want to get a quick, easy lunch and don’t feel like going to a lot of trouble.
They recently came out with a new product-Subs. They are a lot more “sandwich-like,” in my estimation. The bread is softer and …
Happy cow cheese
Most of us use the cheese or the cheese cubes while preparing the food, just to garnish it with and also to feed it to our children. Actually in my home we all are the fans of the pizzas. And without garnishing the pizza with the cheese, the …
Snack a jacks Crunchy Curls Sweet Chilli Kick
This is a new product out in the Snack a Jack Snack range. Since I am currently back on a diet I am always on the lookout for new and different snack foods that I can nibble on. I’m not a big eater, but more of a little and …
Summit Diet Cherry GT Cola (Twelve Pack)
Summit Diet Cherry GT Cola retails for one dollar and ninety-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. In one twelve pack comes twelve-ounce cans. It’s not all that easy to describe the flavor of this diet cola. Sure, it has a noticeable cherry flavor to it, but beyond the …
Toblerone Swiss Milk Chocolate with Honey and almond Nougat
I loved eating chocolates, it really makes me happy to eat chocolates because it has ingredients that make us cheerful and active. One of the best chocolate in the town that really captures me is Toblerone Swiss Milk Chocolate with honey and almond nougat.
This Toblerone chocolate is deliciously yummy …
Butter Ball Turkey
Like most American families we traditionally purchase a turkey at least once a year. I’m not sure of how we decided but for our family we eat turkey every Thanksgiving and Ham for Christmas. We have tried most brands of turkey available in our local supermarket but my personal …
Maxwell House Original Roast Ground Coffee
I am very cheap about a lot of things; however, there is one thing that I refuse to be cheap about and that is my coffee. Maxwell House Original Roast Ground Coffee is truly the best tasting coffee I have ever tasted, and I find that the product …
Sundae Shoppe Lemon Watermelon Italian Ice
When I came across the Sundae Shoppe Lemon and Watermelon Italian Ice at my neighborhood ALDI Food Market, it caught my attention. Not because the price was good, either, at one dollar and ninety-nine cents for a package of six frozen dessert cups, although that certainly did catch my …
Nature’s Hollow Jam
Product Description: Healthy Alternative Jams and Other Products
I started the Belly Fat Cure where it was recommended that I try a line of jams from Nature’s Hollow. I found them at my local health food store and I have to say they are some of the best …
Samba Corned Beef
Samba is the latest and the hottest product of CDO Company in the Philippines right now. It’s a Brazilian style corned beef. Being a food lover by nature and a Food Technologist by profession I always wanted to try something especially if it’s a new product. I bought several …
Del Monte Red Cane Vinegar
I used to be just contented with whatever brand of vinegar I used. But when an exposé about how synthetic vinegar harms out health came out I became very investigative. I practically read all the descriptions of all the vinegar brands in the market and it is only …
Vodka Cruiser - Melon
Drinking alcoholic drinks is really one of our favorite things to do when my friends and I get together, or if my boyfriend and i don’t have anything much to do. I never liked the taste of beer that why I am constantly looking for other drinks that …
Knorr Chicken Cube
From time to time, I use Knorr Chicken Cube when I run out of my favorite food seasoning. This product comes in a cube size which has pasty texture. It costs around PhP7-9 (Philippine Peso) and is available in any retail outlets nationwide. Knorr has other varieties as well …
Calve ketchup
This ketchup really is the best ketchup in the world. Since I tasted this one I don’t buy any other because it is just not worth it. Less expensive brends are many cheper for 20-30 cents but the taste can’t be compared to Calve ketchup but the problem is …
Firefly Sweet Tea Flavored Vodka
Firefly Sweet Tea Flavored Vodka is a great alcohol that I would advise anyone to try if they are looking for experimenting with a new alcohol. It is also made in South Carolina, and this way money stays in the US. Many kinds of alcohol send money …
Iceland Coleslaw and Potato Salad
This coleslaw and potato salad from Iceland’s own brand is very good quality and very economical too, at only £1 for the double tray, each tray containing 250g. I have been impressed with Iceland’s own brand products lately as they do always seem to be fresh and good …
Grand’s Flaky Layer biscuits
I am not your typical biscuit person. Being from the north originally, I usually prefer bagels because I like the chewy, bready consistency. But on occasion I get the taste for biscuits. Here’s the problem with most biscuits though. If they’re not prepared …
Bertolli Frozen Dinner for Two: Chicken Florentine
I bought a bag of Bertolli frozen chicken florentine today at Target. I decided to try it because it looked super easy to make (8 minutes in the microwave) and it was on sale for $6.
I followed the directions on the package, microwaving it for 8 minutes and …
Maple Leaf Pork Roast with Apples & Cinnamon
I have always been a fan of Canadian Maple Leaf meat products. I had never purchased one of their ready-to-go dinners, as I usually prefer to make a roast from scratch. Needing a quick meal for guests that were showing up in only one hour, I quickly purchased Maple …
Crazy Crepes
I know lots of people now are so health conscious that they won’t even bother to look at those nice ice cream filled and heavy cream top crepes.. but man!! life is also about food.
I gotta say that at first I was also so taken aback by how …
Mrs. Freshley’s Round Cheese Danish
I am relatively pleased with the flavor offered by Mrs. Freshley’s Round Cheese Danish. I like creme cheese, and this danish has a pretty good flavor when it comes to the creme cheese filling. I do wish though that there was not such a sweet, icing drizzle placed on …
Pringles Stix Jalapeno
The jalapeno-flavored “stix” from Pringles are just as tasty and good as the cheese-flavored “stix”. The jalapeno flavor has been pretty successfully transferred to these “stix” and they’re even a little hot and biting in taste. They do remind me of jalapenos, and I’m glad that these “stix” turned …
