Lindt Excellence 85% cocoa
I know that the healthiest chocolate is the one that has highest percentage of cocoa in it but I got Lindt Excellence 85% cocoa for Christmas and I really couldn’t eat it. The fact is that it tastes like dirt. I understand that this chocolate is not one of …

Best Choice Canned Sweetened Condensed Milk

Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup Single Pack Shrimp Flavor

Kraft Amooza Twist Cheese String
Kraft Amooza Twist Cheese String has just become my daughter’s new favourite cheese snack lately. Before we saw Amooza twist’s first appearance in No Frills, we always picked Black Diamond cheese string and fun cheese, which was a bit pricy.
The first time we spotted Amooza Twist in No …
Iced Latte Coffee Drink
The Cold Brewed Vanilla Latte at Seattle’s Best coffee shop is simply the best cold coffee drink around. I was extremely impressed with the smoothness of this drink compared with a similar iced vanilla latte at Starbucks. The Cold-Brewing technique makes a much better drink than the way Starbucks …

Totino’s Crispy Crust Party Pizza
Despite its rather festive and unusualy name, Totino’s Cripy Crust Party Pizza is actually a very simple product. It is an affordable and tasty frozen pizza product. Although some frozen pizzas have gotten elaborate and as expensive as ordering pizza from a pizzeria, Totino’s Pizzas are still …
NFFL Eggs
I am a person who bakes and makes a lot of desserts so I use eggs like there are shortage going on in my house. I always purchase the NFFL brand of eggs from my local supermarket because they are the best ones I have come across since I …
Ghirardelli Chocolate Double Chocolate Brownie Mix
This boxed brownie mix has chocolate chips in the mix. The chocolate chips that end up being baked right into the brownies provide “pockets” of richer, stronger chocolate flavor amidst the more subdued but nonetheless good brownie cake, hence the “double chocolate” name on the box. Although I wouldn’t …

Dr. Oetker Pizza Ristorante Quattro Formaggi pizza
I do love Dr. Oetker Pizza Ristorante Quattro Formaggi pizza. I have to say that Im something of a pizza fan, to say the least. Other than chocolate, it’s my healthy eating downfall. That being said, it’s sometimes just nice to eat something tasty and forget the waistline. …
Tesco Ciabatta Roll
I found this fresh Ciabatta roll in Tesco’s in-store bakery section and it was only 30 pence. I have tried other brands of Ciabatta and this relatively cheap one from Tesco was fresh and tasty and as good as any of them. You can often find the …
Banquet Chicken Pot Pie

Michelina’s Gravy and Sausage Breakfast Snackers
This is a breakfast sandwich that didn’t agree with my stomach. The bits and pieces of sausage in the biscuit were gummy and tasted undercooked and as a result didn’t taste good. When I cook sausage patties on the stove, they certainly don’t come out tasting like this. For …
Coffeemate Creamer
I usually don’t drink hardly any coffee. Although when I get a craving for it this is the creamer that I always use. I really like how it makes the coffee taste. It’s at a reasonable price and comes in a bottle that last me a while because I …

Cauldron Lincolnshire Veggie Sausages
Cauldron Lincolnshire Veggie Sausages are made with tofu and are much tastier than the Quorn vegetarian sausages in my opinion. I think what makes these —˜Lincolnshire’ sausages is the fact that they contain herbs which does make them really tasty. Also, I understand that Lincolnshire sausages are …
Parle Hide & Seek Biscuits
Yesterday I went to Jayaram bakery, Madurai for bought something to eat. I bought some biscuits and cream cakes. The list contains Hide & Seek Biscuit also. First I bought this biscuit because the colour of the biscuit packet attracted me. Later, I came to …
Snyders honey mustard and onion pretzels
Snyders honey mustard and onion pretzels are by far the tastiest, best pretzels I ever tasted. Although onions never did agree with me, somehow there pretzels always agree with me. The taste is tangy yet not spicey enough to cause a stomach ache. They …

Burger King Whopper
This is a single patty, but you can order a double or triple Whopper sandwich with more patties. The single Whopper is big enough for my husband, however (I always opt for the smaller Whopper Jr.)
The Whopper comes with a patty on a sesame seed bun with lettuce, pickles …
Van de Kamps Whole Fillet Fish Sticks
We haven’t had fish sticks in a while so I decided to pick up a box of them the other day. Since most cheaper brands are kind of gross, I figured I would spend the extra money and buy a box of Van De Kamps Whole Fillet Fish sticks …
Panera Bread’s Iced Chai Tea Latte
I don’t go into Panera’s that often, but every once in a while it is relaxing to sit in there and have an unusual drink. The Iced Chai Tea Latte is my favorite drink from Panera’s, so whenever I go there and I don’t know what else to get, …
Cobra Fit Energy Drink
As a quality analyst in a call center, my job requires for me to sit down and evaluate the calls of agents for the most part of the day. Sitting down the whole day means I lack exercise and the evaluating part means I have to be mentally alert, …

Maestrani Swiss organic chocolate raspberry
I must say that I was expecting much more of this chocolate. When you read Swiss on the chocolate wrapping you immediately know you are going to have a treat, especially if the wrapping itself looks very expensive too. Bio is a synonym for health in my head so …
Choc o’lait
My favourite drinking chocolate is Choc o’lait and it is to die for. It has a rich chocolate flavour that you would swear goes straight to your hips and thighs but is actually 99%fat free. In fact there are just 42 calories or 175 kilojules in a cup …
Tazo Passion Tea
The other day I purchased some Tazo tea and I thought that it would be worthy of a review. Now I’m a big tea snob, and won’t settle for just any kind of tea. I purchased Tazo’s Passion tea and I was expecting it to be like some other …
Dollar Tree Bakery Fresh Chocolate Chip Cookies
These chocolate chip cookies just aren’t as delicious or soft as Grandma’s Homestyle Big Cookie Chocolate Chip cookies. That being said, I did enjoy these cookies and they were well-worth a dollar for eight at the Dollar Tree. The chocolate chip cookies had a good flavor to them, both …
Little Debbie Cherry Cordials - Valentine’s Day
These came with a special Valentine’s Day basket that I purchased, and boy am I glad that they did! If I would have actually purchased these Little Debbie Cherry Cordials - Valentine’s Day variety, I would have felt totally ripped off! These cookies are the exact same as the …
Voiello Pasta
I really like this pasta because it tastes like one of those traditionally made pastas that our grandmas were making. It seems to be covered with flour and it tastes great.
Voiello is an italian trademark and I think that if someone honosw how to make pasta thats italian people …
New York Style - Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips
New York Style - Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips make for a sweet snack to have in the afternoon. The combination of cinnamon and sugar is rich and does a great job of awakening my senses when I am feeling drowsy. I really like how there is a fine balance …
