Chef’s Cupboard Chicken Soup
I went home for lunch today and, since I really had no idea what I wanted, I ended up digging through our pantry.
After searching for a bit, I came across condensed chicken noodle soup from the brand Chef’s Cupboard.
I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this. I remember …
Orville Redenbacher’s Gourmet Popping Corn - Cheddar Cheese
I really do love Orville Redenbacher’s Gourmet Popping Corn, but I’ve rarely tried any of the various flavors except for butter flavors. However, I had a chance to try their new Cheddar Cheese variety and decided to give it a shot.
I was actually surprised how much I liked …

Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream

Sans Souci Dark Chocolate & Jelly Bean Eggs
What a great idea for Easter - two dark chocolate eggs (2″ tall) filled with colorful jelly beans. These eggs are available from Chocolate.com for $18. They come in a white box that looks somewhat like those carryout boxes at Chinese restaurants; when you open the box, the eggs …
Wilton Bake-Even Cake Strips
I got a set of the Wilton Bake-Even Cake Strips back in 1999, when I was making the cake for my parent’s 50th wedding anniversary, and have been very pleased with their performance ever since. Even after all these years the strips still work as good as they …

Chick-fil-A Waffle Potato Fries
The Waffle Potato Fries at Chick-fil-A are much better than the typical fast food fry, in my opinion. They are superior to McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Whataburger’s fries because unlike the fries served by the aforementioned fast food restaurants, these waffle fries do not taste horrid as soon as they …
Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Strawberry Cheesecake
I found the flavor of Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Strawberry Cheesecake to be a little on the weak side. By that, I mean neither the strawberry nor the cheesecake flavors are quite as tasty as I had been hoping. The strawberry flavor is nothing like the double strawberry …
Ajinomoto Seasoning
Ajinomoto seasoning should not have been invented in the first place! This product is purely monosodium glutamate (MSG) which is proven to do more harm than good to your body. I will never feed my family food that I cook that contains MSG. People from the health department should …
McVities Cafe Noir Biscuits
I have just recently discovered these really nice biscuits from the McVitie range, called Cafe Noir. These are flat, oblong biscuits about the size of malted milk biscuits and they consist of a hard, plain biscuit topped with a thick layer of hard, coffee flavoured icing. They …
Yoplait Whips Chocolate Mousse Yogurt

Banquet Salisbury Steak
The Banquet Salisbury Steak frozen meal comes complete with Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes and corn, all for one dollar. The fact that all this food can be sold for one dollar should be a big hint as to the quality of the food. Still, curiosity can be a mighty …
Trails End Popcorn
Trails End popcorn is something my son’s boy scout troop sells every fall. It is how they make most of their money for summer camp and other scout functions during the year. It is very good popcorn. My favorite is the chocolate caramel crunch. The only thing I don’t …
Tuscani Lasagna by Pizza Hut
Today I decided to order and try the new Tuscani lasagna by pizza hut which I had seen the ad for a few days. I don’t get to order food often, most of my meals are home cooked so I thought I’d give it a try. It looked delicious …
Kool Aid
The first time I heard about the American instant drink Kool Aid was when I was still a child in the nineteen nineties. I am still not completely sure as well as to whether it just came in the island at that time, however, I could remember thinking after …

Mint Chocolate M&Ms (Christmas Edition)

Tapatio Limon Flavored Potato Chips

Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Hot Cereal
To this day, I love Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Hot Cereal. I have a lot of sentimental attachment to this food. As a young girl, this is something my father used to make for me before going to school, and when I got my first job, he …
Stouffer’s Bourbon Steak Tips
Stouffer’s Bourbon Steak Tips is a meal that I do enjoy, although it is a meal that I also feel could be better. The reason I feel that it could be better is because I find the steak tips to be lacking in the flavor that I have come …
Villiger Cigars
“ A woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke,” wrote Rudyard Kipling. Clearly, he knew his cigars, though one wonders about whether he knew women! However, this does raise the question of what constitutes a good cigar. The archetype, of course, is the Cuban …
Pasta Express
When I saw the Pasta Express on television, I had to get one. My wife and I are constantly eating pasta and, even if all it did was free up a burner on our stove, it was worth the investment.
After using it for the first time, I have a …

The Co-operative Chocolate Sponge Sandwich
This chocolate sponge sandwich from the Co-operative’s own brand is only 70p and, for that price, it tastes pretty good. It is obvious not a gourmet sponge cake and I find that there is not too much in it, but it was moist and tasted nice and chocolatey …
Kashi Heart-to-Heart Roasted Garlic Crackers
Triscuits is one of my favorite snacks. However, if you noticed the salt content, you may be turned away from the fact that it is more than recommended by the FDA. Although it is healthier than other snacks in the market, it is still not a recommended …
Cisco’s Crisp Choco in Almond Choco

Jack and Jill Nips Milk Chocolate
I don’t really enjoy chocolates as much as I enjoy potato chips. But I craved for a chocolate one time and the only available was the Nips chocolate by Jack and Jill. It is a local version of the M & M’s. It is much cheaper; it is only …

No sooner than this thought …

Clover Valley Coffee
Clover Valley Coffee is the Dollar General Stores brand of coffee. It is relatively inexpensive at $2.50 for one of those vacuum fresh bags and about $3 for a can. They are both the same amount of coffee so I buy the refill. (The refill works great b/c you …
Captain D’s Seafood Scampi Platter
It’s to find a good seafood restaurant that offers fish and shrimp that hasn’t been battered and deep-fried. I’ve been to Red Lobster but some of the seafood dishes can be pretty pricey when your budget is a little tight. Captain D’s was having a sale on …
Eatons Original Jamaican Jerk Tomato Ketchup
When I saw the unopened bottle of Eaton’s Original Jamaican Jerk Tomato Ketchup in the pantry at home, I was very eager to try it since I had never tried jerk tomato ketchup, and the ketchup sounded like it would have an interesting taste. Well, sad to say when …
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 …
Co-op Apple and Blackcurrant squash
Previously I never would have shopped at the co-op, as I have always thought of the produce as being cheap and yet overpriced. I would have walked past the co-op in order to get to a different shop, or worse still, I would have got in my car and …
Deli Pride Fish & Cheese Sandwich
I went home for lunch today and decided to raid the freezer again and make a quick meal using a Deli Pride Fish & Cheese Sandwich I had purchased from Save-a-Lot a few days ago.
I wasn’t expecting too much from this 99 cent lunch. And, to be perfectly honest, …
