Kroger - Cherry Pie
The cherry pies sold at Kroger found in the bakery section are not that great. Actually, that is quite an understatement. The cherry pie is just downright horrible for the reasons that I am about to cover. Unlike the other pie varieties that I have tried, this is one …
Pumpkin Flavored Ice Cream from Edy’s
There are many flavors of ice cream, and at first, the thought of Pumpkin flavored ice cream did not at all appeal to me. I am not a person who really likes pumpkin flavor at all, but in all honesty, the Pumpkin flavored ice cream from Edy’s was not …
Mint creme Oreo
Who doesn’t love Oreos? Seriously, what can be better than 2 chocolate cookies with the sweet creamy filling in between? I love Oreos, but those are one of the worst things to eat. But as many other processed GMO foods they are delicious.
I don’t usually buy Oreos, but when …
Carvel Ice Cream Cake
Something that we usually get for everyones birthday in my family is a Carvel Brand Ice cream cake. It’s been a tradition for over 10 years and my family just loves the cakes that they make. I’m not a big fan of ice cream and I only eat …

Tofurky
I tried to like Tofurky, but just could not do it. This product is revolutionary and really is a healthy option as well as being a vegetarian’s dream, but in my opinion, it stinks! We made tofurky and the entire family sat down to eat it and all I …
Wendy’s Ice Cream
It’s getting close to spring time and spring and summer bring hot temperatures. When it gets that hot it’s time to find something to cool you down. Wendy’s new frosty float is the perfect option on those hot days to do just that. Wendy’s restaurants have their own version …

Accents Flavor Enhancer
One day, while “chewing the fat” with a fellow employee at work, I was told about a wonderful seasoning enhancer named Accents. I hadn’t heard a thing about it, and my co-worker was extremely surprised- to say the least. She told me that she’d bring me a little in …
Market Pantry Party Mix Zesty
The Market Pantry Party Mix Zesty is a nut mix that’s sold only at Target stores as it’s a Target brand product. It comes in a forty-eight ounce container that retails for just under four dollars. I only bought this mix once, but I was pretty satisfied with its …
Circle K’s $.79 Polar Pop
Last summer 2013, Our local Circle K gas station installed a very large selection of fountain pop. Most people will turn their nose up to the thought of fountain pop!! 9 times out of 10 myself included! It’s because usually it has a bit of a stale flat taste …
Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Peanut Butter Wafer Bars
Although I feel that Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Peanut Butter Wafer Bars could have likely been richer in flavor had this product not been made with nutrition in mind, I must say that despite the fact that there is really very little sugar added to these wafer bars, they still …
San Remo Macaroni and Cheese (Instant)
Some would say I’m a Macaroni and Cheese freak. I’ve sampled just about all of Kraft’s different variants. For me, a good serving has a hint of sharp cheddar. When I saw that San Remo had their own little packet of instant mac and cheese, I just had …

Like its parent company, this has …
Garden of Eatin’ Blue Corn Tortilla Chips
I am totally hooked on these chips. We gave them a try on a whim, and we liked them so much we have begun to buy them about once every week. We buy ours at Earth Fare grocery store, but I’m not sure what other stores sell them. Even …
Carl Jr’s The Big Carl Combo Meal
One of the reasons I haven’t gone to Carl’s Jr. all the much in recent years is because of their prices. Compared to other fast food places in the vicinity, it cost more there to get comparable meals. Nowadays, though, this west coast fast food restaurant finally …
Kraft Singles Cheese
Kraft Singles appears to be like any other cheese when it is in your grocery store but after I tried it I noticed the difference right away.They have several ads talking about how it is made with real milk and this is correct, if you try the product you …

Selecta Ice Cream: Coffee Almond Cookies
My cousin would attest to the fact that I started nagging him about buying me this ice cream flavor ever since I saw the ad on TV. He never budged so I made a mental note to buy it for myself the moment I had the money. When I …
Little Debbie Cherry Cordials
I find these Little Debbie Cherry Cordials to be decent, although nothing truly incredible. This snack consists of vanilla cookies that are coated in chocolate fudge and have cherry creme in the middle. Now the reason I simply consider these cookies to be decent and nothing more is because …
Great Value Ravioli
I wanted to pick up something cheap for lunch today and, after looking around, decided to spend 80 cents on a can of beef ravioli from the brand Great Value.
Since it was a cheaper brand, I wasn’t expecting a whole lot in terms of quality. But, it ended up …
Tesco Crumpets
These crumpets from Tesco’s own range are very good value indeed at only 79 pence for a packet of twelve. Because I like to root around on the ‘reduced price’ shelves at Tesco, I managed to get a packet today for only 40 pence so I am even …

Betty Crocker - Sunkist Lemon Bars
Betty Crocker - Sunkist Lemon Bars are quite scrumptious! While lemon-flavored desserts are not exactly my most favorite kind of dessert, I do like the taste of lemon from time to time. In the case of these bars, I really find myself having a difficult time keeping track of …
General Mills Protein Cinnamon Almond Cheerios
I was admittedly hesitant to purchase a box of either General Mills Protein Cinnamon Almond Cheerios or General Mills Protein Oats and Honey Cheerios for a simple reason: I didn’t like how on the box, it stated the cereal contained eleven grams of protein, but there was a condition …
Healthy Choice Sweet Asian Potstickers
Having had some very good potstickers in my day, I was dubious about the quality of this Healthy Choice product. But when Wal-Mart was having a sale on this entrée, I bought it because it’s always nice to have a backup meal waiting in the freezer. Right …

I ended up buying the Our Family brand of waffles because of the price. The better known brands were …
Chick-fil-A Chargrilled Chicken Garden Salad
The Chick-fil-A Chargrilled Chicken Garden Salad is much better than the Chargilled Fruit Salad, in my opinion. I think with this menu item, the chargrilled chicken goes better with the contents found in the garden salad as opposed to the contents found in the fruit salad. Of course, the …
Milbona Greek Style Salad Cheese
I tried this ‘Greek Style Salad Cheese’ by the Milbona brand because it was the closest thing to Feta cheese that Lidl had at the time. I have been craving one of my favourite vegetarian tortilla wraps which contains feta, so I tried this rather than travel to …
Zubrowka Vodka
I am not a Vodka fan to put it mildly. However, as luck would have it, I wound up drinking it at a party mixed with apple juice because that was the drink being offered. To my surprise, I loved it! I then found out that …
Ribena drink
When the weather turns hot, the drinks industry rubs its hands with glee. Hot weather means cold drinks and ice. Something to quench the thirst on a summer’s day. Maybe something to soothe a dry throat in the middle of a sports competition —“ half-time in a soccer match, …
Planters Mixed Nuts
As someone who is particularly fond of eating nuts, I was naturally thrilled to find Planters mixed nuts in our house.
Its combination of delightfully tasty peanuts, cashews, almonds, brazil nuts, walnuts, and hazelnuts is certainly something that made my stomach grumble in extreme anticipation.
So, since I was …
Carlo Rossi Wines
There are lots of people who hate wine. I have plenty of friends who’d rather consider cannibalism than drink a drop of wine. I am an individual who felt the same way. There was just something about it that tasted horrible, and I could never drink it. Not even …
Lindt Chocolate Bunny
If you a big chocolate lover like myself, you need to experience the exquisite Lindt chocolate bunny. Lindt chocolate is very rich chocolate that should only be eaten in small amounts. Lindt chocolate bunnies are available in milk chocolate and dark chocolate varieties. Personally speaking, I enjoy milk chocolate …
Wrigley’s Extra Cool Watermelon Gum
Wrigley’s has been one of my favorite brands of chewing gum for quite a while, so when I saw the new Wrigley’s Extra Cool Watermelon I had to check it out. I was not disappointed. The flavor may be a little too strong at first, but it quickly subsides …
Ristora Cappuccino decaf

Cloverhill Bakery - Jumbo Glazed Honey Bun
While I most certainly cannot say that the Cloverhill Bakery - Jumbo Glazed Honey Bun offers much at all in terms of nutritional value, I most definitely can say that it is full of flavor and filling as well! The sugar and the honey certainly do a number on …
Fenta
‘Fenta’ is a soft drink. I have tasted quite a number of soft drinks and Fenta is one of the best among soft drinks. This drink is a tasty one and it has got orange flavour. It is sweet, but not very sweet. It is moderately sweet and that …

I have always been a big Digiorno man myself but I decided to try something new with this one. I got one of the Freschetta Natural Rising Pepperoni Pizza from the frozen pizza section recently.
So I got home and popped it in the oven and just from …
Rolo Hot Chocolate drink mix
Because I don’t often drink coffee, I drink hot chocolate a lot. So we’ve been trying different hot chocolate mixes to keep in the kitchen so I can make a hot chocolate at home in the morning.
Since I like Rolo candies…and really, any combination involving caramel and chocolate, …
Flavarite Maple Almond Ice Cream
