T. Marzetti Old Fashioned Caramel Apple Dip

Palastri sangiovese di Romagna - red wine
I recently tasted Palastri sangiovese di Romagna wine. It’s a red, medium bodied wine from Italy. I bought it because it was half price rather than because it had been recommended. I enjoyed it. It would go well with an evening meal but I enjoyed a glass …

So Delicious Unsweetened Coconutmilk
I’ve been trying different plant-based milks for the last few months and, apparently, I’m really picky since I don’t have a favourite yet. This milk didn’t find its way into my favourites either. Even though I like So Delicious and I think their coconut milk products are really nice, I …

Hershey’s Milk Shake: Creamy Chocolate
For me, nothing beats a real milk shake that you get at a restaurant. Next to that is a refreshing glass of Crystal chocolate milk. Some companies now also make these single serve chocolate drinks, which they call milk shakes, and sell them at the stores. For …
Jimmy Dean Pancakes and Sausage on a Stick
I’ve always loved pork. Breakfast is one of my favorite meals because there’s pork sausage, pancakes and scrambled eggs to be eaten. That’s definitely one of my favorite meals.

Kroger’s Big K Cola
Being on a budget, I sometimes have to opt for off brand sodas. Not all of them are up to par. Kroger’s Big K Cola may be the best of the worst.
Ice cold, these colas are not bad. They taste the most similar to real Coca …

Owl Teh Tarik Instant Hand Pulled Milk Tea

Little Debbie Creme-Filled Chocolate Cupcakes
