Season’s Choice Italian Vegetable Blend
We made Pork Chops last night for dinner and, to go with it, my wife decided to make the last bag of Season’s Choice vegetables in our freezer, their Italian Blend.
Those vegetables were OK but weren’t as good as other vegetables we have purchased from this particular brand in …
Luigi’s Real Italian Ice Lemon and Strawberry
There are three lemon-flavored and three strawberry-flavored Italian Ice cups that come in a box for two dollars and fifty cents. Thia is a reasonably fair price considering the quality and flavor of the Italian Ice. While neither flavor is particularly super rich, the lemon-flavored cups offer an unmistakable …
Cheezels Chips
Cheezels are a snack that myself and my family have been enjoying for many years now. I’ve been eating these chips since I was very young and since then, Cheezels have thankfully kept their incredible taste and great flavour that we all love so much. They still …
Sara Lee Soft and Smooth Whole Grain White Bread
Of all the white breads I’ve had in the past year or so, Sara Lee Soft and Smooth Whole Grain White Bread is probably my favorite. That said, I really haven’t had a white bread that I truly love in a while. Rainbo used to be my favorite, …
Unikai mango icecream
I have tasted Unikai mango ice cream. It is tasty with mango flavor. Ice cream is soft and smooth. As this is the summer, every one prefer chilled items only, especially ice cream. Unikai mango icecream is almost like homemade icecream. Its quality is good. Price is also reasonable. …
Our Family Enriched White Bread
Since I was picking up lunch meat last night (I found it on sale), I decided I probably should buy a loaf of bread too. We had some bread at home already. But, with sandwiches, we go through it too fast and I didn’t want to risk running out.
Since …
Doner Meat and Chips - Takeaway Meal
Oddly enough, opinion suggests that one of the best things that you can have from a takeaway, especially if you are going to have a kebab is a doner kebab. We all know that this is far from being quality meat, to the extent that we literally do not …
Nestle Coffeemate
I usually have a cup of coffee first thing in the morning and sometimes late at night while working on projects for school and work. I happen to think that it is the creamer that makes the coffee taste good or bad.
I decided to try Coffee mate creamer …
Mrs. Freshley’s Glazed Cake Donuts
There is really nothing all that wonderful or impressive about Mrs. Freshley’s Glazed Cake Donuts, aside from the fact that the donut itself is actually a pretty good size. Everything else is really pretty much on the average side. The amount of glazed icing found on the donut is …
Snapfish.com
I can’t say enough good about snapfish.com. This online web site that processes pictures (and produces some really cool gifts with them) has treated me, as a customer, very well. I’ve ordered several different things. I’ve ordered prints, notebooks, mugs, and calender. Each have come very …
Act II Butter Lovers Popcorn
Product Description: Microwaveable popcorn that offers extra butter for those who love butter on their popcorn.
What I liked about this product: I have purchased quite a few brands of microwave popcorn that do not fill the bag when popping and leave more unpopped kernels at the bottom than popped. …
Drumstick Ice Cream Treats - With Sprinkles
Drumstick cones have been around for a long time without any changes - they are a standard sugar cone filled with ice cream, except for a bit of fudge in the bottom, then dipped in chocolate and rolled in peanuts. This formula has worked well for years, but …
Rice-A-Roni Beef Flavored Rice
The Rice-A-Roni beef flavored rice is another favorite rice from the Rice-A-Roni lineup that I like to prepare. I like the beef flavored rice because it’s versatile and can pretty much go with type of meal that I’m preparing.
Because the cooking instructions differs for each flavor of rice, I …
New York Style - Biscotti Chocolate
New York Style - Biscotti Chocolate is a really tasty cookie that combines both real and authentic chocolate flavoring with real pieces of almonds. It is really quite a wonderful combination that works very well. The cookie itself is chocolate and it has a real pleasant and deep chocolate …
Fried Bee Hoon
If you ever make your way to Southeast Asian countries like Singapore and Malaysia, be sure to request for this particular dish known as Fried Bee Hoon. In English, it is called Fried Vermicelli.
But my personal favorite for Fried Bee Hoon would be the spicy and in …
Entenmann’s 8 Glazed Buttermilk Donuts
I find Entenmann’s 8 Glazed Buttermilk Donuts to be an enjoyable treat once and a great while. While these donuts are not quite as soft or fresh as the donuts sold individually in the cases, eight do come in a box and at a good value, too. Plus, the …
Party Cubes Savoury Cheese bites in Plain
I love cheese of any variety, especially cream cheese, so when Party Cubes Savoury Cheese bites in Plain came on sale for just $2 I quickly bought a box. I have been eating Party Cubes since I was a little girl, and I can always spot their boxes of …
Nature Valley Granola Bars
I have just purchased some granola bars from Nature Valley, and I can truly say that I am impressed.
The granola bars come in many different flavors including: peanut butter, apple crisp, and pecan crunch to name a few. These granola bars are the official energy bar of the PGA …
Chobani Greek Yogurt: Bite Raspberry with Dark Chocolate Chip
Chobani branded Greek yogurt is one of my favorites. Every chance I get, or when ever my neighborhood grocer is running a sale, I toss a few containers in my basket, all different flavors. Usually I get my favorite flavor, but this time I decided to try something new. …
Amarula Cream liquor
This cream liquour is made of fresh milk and an exotic fruit called marula. This fruit, that I didn’t know beforehand, seems to have a lot of vitamine c. More important than that, mixed with milk makes an unique mix with a soft and delicious taste.
This drink has a …
Nature’s Harvest Juice Drinks
I love juices, iced tea of colas! With juices I don’t like the most common orange juice or mango juice. I prefer to drink either calamansi or the Philippine lemon juice or more often than not, I will buy a dalandan juice. I was so thrilled that there was …
Hawaiian Punch Singles To Go-Fruit Punch
I love these Hawaiian Punch Singles! I wouldn’t say they’re the same as the regular hawaiian punch, but the flavor is close enough. To be precise, these are the fruit punch, but Hawaiian Punch has these in several other varieties as well. They come …
Jose Pedro Salsa
If you like mild but flavorful salsa, you MUST try this salsa I found at Dollar Tree. Now, I’ve bought their 16 oz. jars before and they’re very good, but this one is 24 oz., which is 50% more for the same price!
We use a lot of salsa …
Spring Tree maple syrup
I had never had real maple syrup until a couple of years ago when I was on a camping trip with friends and one of the families we were camping with took their turn making breakfast for everyone and they made corn cake (corn meal pancakes) and served them …
Kraft Tomato Basil String Cheese Snacks
I love string cheese, my kids love string cheese, and my husband loves string cheese. We go through quite a bit of string cheese especially during the school year because it is a great snack for my kids to take to school and to eat after they get home …
Michelina’s Cheese Pizza
I didn’t care very much for this frozen pizza. Except for the cheese, it was really pretty tasteless. Neither the crust nor the tomato sauce stood out. The crust was thin, although not crispy, and didn’t taste like much of anything or break real easily when bitten into. The …
Mildura Instant Ginger Drink with Honey
I hate ginger. It’s hot, it’s spicy, and I think it has a horrible taste. Despite how everyone around me tells me how nutritional ginger is, I still can’t bring myself to eat it. I will scoop out all ginger in my dish. I do my best …
Michelina’s Vegetables & Stir Fry
This is a pretty good frozen meal that has quite a lot to offer in terms of flavor variety, but the main problem it suffers from is that there just aren’t enough vegetables tossed in with the rice. My wanting of more vegetables is partially a good thing as …
Stonyfield Farms Organic Low Fat Banilla Yogurt
I love yogurt and I love anything Banana. Vanilla is another one of my favorite flavors so when I saw that Stonyfield Farms makes a Banilla Yogurt, I simply had to try it. Obviously Banilla means banana and vanilla flavored. It tastes exactly like that. …
Starbuck’s Java Chip Ice Cream
Starbucks Java Chip ice cream has got to be the best coffee flavored ice cream available. Being an ice cream connoisseur, I know my ice cream’s and who makes the best! I have always found coffee ice cream to be on the top of my list, but then I …
Chocolate Chip Cookies
When I was a little girl, I remember that my mother loved to bake sweets. She was all the time baking something new or different for us to try. She baked a variety of cookies, cakes, pies and other such delights. All of those baked treats tasted really good …
Trader Joe’s Kalamata Olive Hummus
I was intrigued by this hummus because I love the taste of kalamata olives. These are large purplish-black almond-shaped Greek olives that have a lovely texture that is similar to meat. Trader Joe’s hummus tends to have a pasty, rather than creamy, texture to it, which is not something …
Aunt Jemima Original Pancake Mix
Aunt Jemima Original Pancake Mix is, to me, just that — the original. This is the brand my parents used when I was growing up, and there was never a bad meal that came of it.
Aunt Jemima Original Pancake Mix is made of ingredients that include enriched bleached …
Clancy’s Puffed Corn Butter
Clancy’s Puffed Corn Butter is a product that comes in an eight ounce bag for one dollar and nineteen cents. The product has an odd name, but it’s a lot like popcorn. The puffed corn isn’t as crunchy as popcorn and it also isn’t as salty. It’s not as …
Reser’s Main St. Bistro - Baked Scalloped Potatoes
I’ve never tried any of the Reser’s Main St. Bistro products before. In fact, I haven’t even seen them before. As a fluke, I was in the deli section of the store and just happened to glance over at some of the prepared foods. I noticed …
Chef Boyardee Macaroni and Cheese
I recently decided to try Chef Boyardee’s new Macaroni and Cheese. From the packaging, which is a 7.5 ounce bowl that you can put in the microwave, it looked like an exciting and tasty mini-meal. And of course, the word “New!” probably also attracted me to it. …
Honey bunches of oats
Unlike any other cereal I have ever tasted. I really like honey bunches of oats cereal. It has just the right amount of different ingredient. Not too much of something and not too little of something. Everything goes well together in the cereal. The clusters and the flakes, everything …
Haagen Dazs Brazilian Acai Berry Sorbet
Whenever I am in Makati to purchase something or in business, I have to go to my favorite mall, Power Plant Mall. Right there is my favorite spot of Haagen Dazs store. It is just a kiosk in the middle of the 2nd level near Mango and Kate Spade. …
Horlicks Malted Milk Drink
Horlicks malted milk drink is a nutritious bedtime drink which is promoted as an aid to a restful night’s sleep. When it was first produced back in 1873, it was intended to be used as a substitute for mother’s milk for babies, but with scientific advances it was …
Johnathan T Pigs in a Blanket
I used to love eating pigs in a blanket when I was a child.. these pint sized verisions by Johnathan to are a wonderful option for a snack food. They are particuarly designed as an appetizer, they really are fantastic, and a great choice when you have guest over.
Ive …
Milo Energy Drink
The Philippines is a tropical country. The weather here is very unpredictable. There are times that during summer, the rain falls heavily. There are also times that a when a typhoon hits the city, the sun shines brightly. That I can say is “only in the Philippines”.
One of …
Paramount Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon
Salmon is my favorite fish and I prefer to buy Paramounts Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon because it is the best tasting salmon by far. I can also buy Paramounts Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon at a great price. I usually pay just $2.29 for a 210g net tin. I also …
Aquolina Pink Sugar
Hummm, I’m so in love with it! Usually, I’m not crazy about foody-scents, but for few reasons, I surprised myself loving wearing it as soon as I sprayed it on me for the first time. Initially, I thought that Pink Sugar would be a one note perfume because of …
Solen Triplex
This wafer with milk and Cocoa cream and Hazelnut ingredients was kind a calling me from the shelf so I had to buy it. When I was smaller my father used to buy me a similar product which I really adored but I can’t find it anywhere any more …
Child’s Playtime Candy
Child’s Playtime Candy is a bulk candy package from the Tootsie Roll company. I’ve purchased it for years, normally at Halloween time but sometimes I get it at other occasions or just to restock. It’s a huge bag of over five pounds of candy that lasts a …
Great Value Apple Flavored Drink Mix
Walmart’s brand, Great Value, makes many generic alternatives in almost any category. Last week I purchased a powdered drink mix made by (or distributed by) Walmart, made to be similar to name brand “Crystal Light.” It is sugar free, sweetened with aspartame, and has five calories per serving.
I wasn’t …
Market Pantry Saltine Crackers
Saltine crackers are a pretty basic food, something that I would think is pretty difficult to mess up. I mean, how much more basic can you get than a simple cracker with a bit of salt on it? Somehow, however, Market Pantry (a generic brand sold at …
Haagen-Dazs Green Tea Ice Cream
I had never tried green tea ice cream prior to Haagen-Dazs’ variety. I had always been wary of it, because while I enjoy green tea, I was concerned that it wouldn’t have very much flavor or that its delicate flavor wouldn’t translate very well to a rich frozen dessert.
I …
Orv’s Frozen Pizza
My wife and I didn’t have a lot of time to think about dinner yesterday afternoon so, after a long afternoon of running around, we ultimately decided to just stop off at one of the stores and pick up a frozen pizza.
The store we chose was having a sale …
Sam’s Cola
At 58 cents for a two liter bottle, Sam’s Cola beats Coke and Pepsi by a long shot, pricewise. At the same time it has good, classic Cola taste that is not any worse, in my opinion, than the above mentioned popular brand names. Sam’s Cola wastes no money …
