JACQUOT Chocolate Truffles
Not being a particularly avid chocolate consumer I only discovered these venerable French bonbons (the factory, while backed by big capital now, has been in operation since 1922) only two years ago, while shopping for my aunt who IS a chocolate addict.
I’ll admit the first thing that made my notice …
Asda Smart Price Mayonaise

Pearson’s Mint Patties

Pepsi One
Pepsi One is the perfect choice for those of us who like Pepsi and watch our calories intake. I have tried Diet Pepsi and I did not like it. There is a definite taste difference from regular Pepsi that I didn’t appreciate. Diet Pepsi is just not the same, …
Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake
For me, Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake is a real seasonal treat! While I’m not a fan of every single Jell-o product on the shelf, as I’ve found the line of products to be hit or miss at times, wondering how the flavor on the packaging could be …
St Helier Pear Cider
As this is a drink I was unsure what category to put this in so here it is stuck in the food one.

Auntie Anne’s Pretzels (food)
Lets stop for a minute and think about pretzels. Usually, they’re pretty healthy, right? Auntie Anne’s Pretzels by far, are the best tasting pretzels I have eaten, but there is a reason for that. Unless you specially request that they be made without butter and salt, …
Planters Smoked Almonds

Dodravka Dolcela pudding chocolate
When I was little my mother used to prepare me puddings all the time and I adored it, I never liked any taste but vanilla and chocolate so she was making only those two tastes. Other puddings had really nice colours but they weren’t that good and they didn’t …
Land, Soft Fruit Cheese, Strawberry
I don’t like food like yogurt with taste of the strawberry because they are little too sour to me, like they miss little of sugar. I had to eat this soft fruit cheese that my sister bought this evening for the dinner as I had to clean my fridge …
Red Gold Tomato Ketchup

Hungry Man Boneless Fried Chicken
Frozen dinners have come a long, long way. Just ten years ago, I wouldn’t go near a Swanson dinner, which had fallen behind the frozen food wars in my opinion. A year or so ago, though, I decided to try their Hungry Man Boneless Fried Chicken, and …
Bellarom Chocolate
Obviously you can’t beat the taste of name brand chocolate wherever you may live, be it Cadbury’s, Hershey’s, Lindt or Nestlé but it isn’t always the case to say that cheaper chocolate is an inferior product. Often, I find we pay in excess for a “name” with some products …
Jamocha Shake from Arby’s
I love shakes and find myself ordering them a few times a year. I do not purchase them all of the time because of the price and the calories. One shake that I like to have every now and then is from local Arby’s. It is a jamocha flavored …

Great Value Seasoned French Fries
Great Value Seasoned French Fries are indeed a great value - a two pound bag for just two dollars and twelve cents cannot be beat. Unfortunately, the fries themselves are not that spectacular. After cooking them for the recommended amount of time at the recommended oven temperature, the fries …
Life Water from SAFEWAY
I just bought a new type, for me, water drink called Life Water, from Safeway. I must say that the fruit tastes are much stronger than those in Propel Bottled health water, or in PowerAde. If you are one who prefers a stronger taste of the fruit in your …

Every time I venture into Target, I discover a new kind of cookie or candy that I had never previously encountered anywhere else. Being a huge cookie aficionado, this thrills me to no end. My most recent trip had me discover a new kind of Milano cookie that I …

Wholly Guacamole Classic
I love guacamole, especially when paired with crispy tortilla chips. Although I like to mix it up with different kinds of chips. Usually the ones that are spicy and can nicely compliment a good guacamole. Depending on my mood, and what kind of ingredient I have on hand …
Squirt Soda
Squirt Soda is like cheap versions of Mountain Dew, only without the caffeine, and 7-Up, only without the clean crisp taste. I’ve never liked Squirt Soda. We used to buy it from time to time because it was inexpensive, but I’ve never liked it. Finally, I …

Amy’s Organic Salsa Medium
I was looking around a newly opened “Organics” store at a mall a week ago and this has caught my eye. I’ve been having this hankering for yummy salsa so I picked up a jar instead of the organic potato chips they were selling. I’m not usually one of …
Ocean Spray Craisins
These small treats are pretty similar to raisins - small dried fruit. But they are made of cranberries, which makes them sweeter than, and sometimes more bitter than raisins. They are also a very healthy snack.
We buy them in big bags and use them for everything. They can be …
Kellogg’s Fiber Plus Antioxidants Chewy Bars
Any food that has the words fiber and antioxidants in the title is something that I normally would never buy. It is not that I don’t care about nutrition, or that I don’t eat foods with fiber and antioxidants, it is just that I get those ingredients from healthy …
Century Corned Tuna
Century corned tuna is the latest canned goods that I greatly devoured right now, because of its taste and health benefits.

L’oven Fresh Hot Dog Buns
L’oven Fresh Hot Dog Buns retail for seventy-nine cents for eight at ALDI. I see that as a price that no other grocery store or supermarket can match, be it with the national brands or store brands, and seventy-nine cents is a regular, everyday low price at ALDI! I …
Mrs. Freshley’s Lemon Pie
I am really very pleased with Mrs. Freshley’s Lemon Pie, with the exception of the crust, but the crust is bad regardless of which flavor variety I purchase, quite unfortunately. What pleases me about this lemon pie is the lemon filling. Boy is it ever delicious! The lemon filling …
