Columbina Cappuccino Millows Marshmallows
I had never heard of the “Columbina Cappuccino Millows Marshmallows” until my brother got one of them for me after work as a treat. A single small pretty and white marshmallow with some brown swirls on it came in a small transparent bag, and I do not think that …
Kelloggs Corn Flakes Cereal
They call it the original — Kelloggs Corn Flakes Cereal. It’s certainly the most recognizable and purest of the Kelloggs family of cereals. My father loved this product tremendously. It was pretty much a staple in our cupboards as I grew up.
As for me, I wasn’t …
MacDonalds BigMac Burger
Is it me, or is a Big Mac vastly over rated? It is always my burger or choice but only because of it’s size. When I go to a McDonalds I need something that is going to stand a chance of filling me up and at least a Big …
KFC Strawberry - Vanilla cookies Crusher
This product is new to KFC restaurants, at least in my part of the world, and as such, it is quite heavily advertised. Since I pass a KFC on my way to work, I sometimes stop by to have a snack, particularly on busy days, when I don’t have …
IBARAKU Milk COFFEE
By the coffee’s name IBARAKU, you can directly associate it with Japan. But based on one of the Philippine’s local dialect, “BARAKU” means something grand or fully grown, which can be associated with something strong and active. But then, this coffee is not that strong by its name …
Eating Right Cranberry Almond Bran Cereal
This cereal is good, but it’s just too pricey to purchase unless it’s on sale or there is a coupon for it. It only comes in a thirteen ounce box and Tom Thumb, the only place I’ve seen it, wants over three dollars and fifty cents for a box. …
Microwave singles by Betty Crocker
Betty Crocker Hamburger Helper Microwave singles Stroganoff
You would think that with that strong of a name as the manufacturer, you would be getting a good product. I suppose if you were a pre schooler who weighed under a hundred pounds you would be satisfied with this product. …
McDonald’s $1 Soda and Sweet Tea promotion
I know that we all just love McDonald’s, but I think that it is really great that they have a summer promotion going on now where you can get any size soda or sweet tea for just a $1.00. It is super inexpensive, and I am sure it drives …
Fresh Basket Farms Duck Egg
I bought this half a dozen duck egg at the nearest grocery store which is located at Hypercity Mall in Malad. I was happy to see a duck egg because I really long to try and taste it even if I was able to eat duck eggs long time …
Pan di Stelle chocolate rolls, Mulino Bianco
Mulino Bianco is a very popular Italian brand; they make mostly bread, biscuits but different kind of rolls too. The other day my sister wanted to try Pan di Stelle chocolate rolls, we don’t usually buy similar stuff because they just make you fat because they are sweet and …
Hershey’s Almond Joy
I am a definite chocolate lover, no denying that. So you’d think that Almond Joy would be on my lists of chocolates that I can’t resist or that I may even crave but that would be a negative.
Almond Joy is a chocolate bar made by Hershey’s which is sweetened …
Grapefruit the Healer
Who would have thought that a simple little grapefruit could heal many different kinds of infections? Well, the answer is in the testing of the valuable fruit. I once encountered a problem with mosquitoes when one of my children was allergic to the mosquito bite. He …
King’s Grand Cappucino Chips Ice Cream
I always tell people around me that I want to make my own ice cream but sadly, I never really did it. I have many excuses - I don’t have the time, I don’t have the know-how, I don’t have the machines…
So in the …
Cafe21, 2 in 1 instant white coffee mix, without sugar
I was never a fan of premixed coffee that usually comes in 3 in 1 forms. It is a combination of non-dairy creamer, sugar and instant coffee powder. They are either too sweet or too watery for my taste. I want to taste the coffee not …
Original Mini Wheats cereal
As a kid, I mostly liked sugary cereals, if given the option. But those aren’t very healthy. Mini Wheats are a good compromise cereal, because they are a little bit sweet but mostly wheat. So not the most healthy in the world, but a pretty good start to a …
Han Kuk Mi Brown Rice 5 LBS. (2.26kg)
I bought the Han Kuk Mi brown rice from the Price Smart #2207 grocery chain store in Surrey, British Columbia on May 9, 2009. I have been cooking and eating white rice for so long, while my friends have been telling me that brown rice was more healthy.
The …
Appetitos Franks in a Blanket
There are a variety of recipes out there that outline how to prepare pigs in a blanket or mini crescent dogs, and that’s great if one has the time to go ahead and do that. As a majority of people out there have likely found out time and time …
Nong Shim Korean Noodles
One of my favorite snacks is the Nong Shim Korean Noodles. It is a very popular Korean noodle brand. At Php30 (USD 0.69) for a 120mg pack in most big groceries, it is really very affordable and is a very good value. You can buy it …
Bislery mineral water
Bislery is the brand name of the mineral water, which is very famous and very popular all over India. Even in abroad also this particular mineral water is very popular because I have seen many foreigners carrying the Bislery mineral water with them. Actually I like and …
Hostess Donettes - Chocolate
These Hostess Donettes - Chocolate variety are downright terrible! The chocolate flavor that coats these donuts really does not taste like chocolate at all! What happened to the rich and delicious chocolate used for the Hostess Cupcakes, Suzy Q’s, Ding Dongs and similar products? This chocolate tastes like some …
Stouffer’s Italian-Style Supreme Stromboli
Quite unfortunately, there is nothing really all that supreme about Stouffer’s Italian-Style Supreme Stromboli. Two of the most disappointing aspects of this Stromboli are the sausage and the pepperoni. Now first, let me say that I can indeed taste both, however, the flavor of both the sausage and the …
Jimmy Dean Breafast Entrees
While shopping last week, I ran across a new Jimmy Dean product called Breakfast Entrees. The one I chose to sample was the scrambled eggs with bacon and cheese, plus diced apples, and seasoned hash browns. They have the exact same combination with sausage instead of bacon, …
Tostitos Creamy Spinach Dip
During one of our house parties my mom and I really had a hard time deciding what to serve our guests. The guests were mostly in their 20s and they wanted to drink alcohol after eating dinner. We served them some fried chicken, pasta and some pizza but we …
Hormel Compleats Spaghetti
Recently, I tried Hormel Compleats Spaghetti with meat sauce. I’ve always enjoyed Hormel products and feel it is a quality brand with a taste I enjoy. Since spaghetti is my all-time favorite food, and this promised a meal in 90 seconds, I just had to try it.
The …
Philadelphia Cream Cheese
I love to make homemade cheesecake. It is one of my favorite desserts to eat. I use Philadelphia Cream Cheese in it. I like that the Philadelphia Cream Cheese is easy to blend together. I�ve also used it to make sharp cheddar cheese balls. …
Glaceu’s Vitamin Water
Lately I have gotten pretty addicted to Glaceau’s vitamin water. There are a variety of different flavors of water that all have different mixes of vitamins in them. The waters themselves taste like Kool-Aid; they’re sweet and have a light flavor to them without being overpowering.
I really feel like …
Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar
I’ve been hearing a lot about the health benefits of Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar so I was convinced to try using this product in my cooking instead of the ordinary clear vinegar we have in the market although this is of course comparatively much more expensive. I think …
S&B Golden Curry Sauce Mix (Mild, with Recipe)
What’s the easiest way to whip up a delicious curry dish?
Get ready made sauce!
And that’s why I got the Golden Curry Sauce Mix. It taste really nice and is very easy to cook prepare. The best thing is, it’s not too spicy! I’m not a person who can take …
Texas Pete: Red Hot Sauce
This hot sauce is indeed hot! It burns and doesn’t quit burning for a few moments. I like that I don’t need to pour it on, either. A little will do! That being said, it’s not just hot, but flavorful too. The flavor of the sauce reminds me of …
Knorr Mushrom soup
Usually I eat almost everything but mushrooms are unfortunately one of a few things that I really don’t like but I like mushroom soup, specially if it is a creamy one. I don’t like all of mushroom soups because most of them don’t taste very good. I went to …
Diet Moxie
Moxie is a soda that has been around since 1884. I had heard of it previously on the travel network as well as the CBS Sunday Morning show. On a recent trip to New Hampshire I decided I was going to try Moxie. Since I almost always drink diet …
Pizza Power Mackay
If you live in Mackay in sunny Queensland of Australia then you will have to ditch the traditional pizza shops. Pizza Power in my opinion is the best pizza shop in town. For a start, they are made on the spot to order (just like the other pizza shops) …
Blue Bunny Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream Bar
Well, I can taste the chocolate, but not so much the raspberry in these Blue Bunny Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream Bars. The chocolate is definitely quite prominent as it is on the outside and on the inside. The outside chocolate is dark chocolate while the chocolate on the inside …
Hersheys 100 calorie pretzel bars
Hershey’s 100 calorie pretzel bars were something that I bought the last time I went on a shopping trip to Costco. These bars are unique and flavorful, and the best thing about them is the fact that they are only 100 calories. The bars are small, but …
Chunky Vegetable Beef Stew
Typically, if I’m looking for a quick lunch, I can’t go wrong with Chunky Soup. But, after trying their Vegetable Beef Stew, I have to say I don’t intend on buying that variety again.
Flavor wise, it was OK. It was a bit too salty for my tastes but it …
Knick Knacks Milk Coated Biscuits
I simply love these fish-shaped milk-coated biscuits called Knick Knacks. This is a very popular snack among kids here in the Philippines. And why not? Moms would always love to give their kids yummy snacks, but of course we want to make sure what they’re eating is healthy… But …
Udi’s Gluten Free White Bread
It is difficult to find a great tasting gluten free white bread. I was very happy to discover this one. I had been eating a different one for a long time but it was a cheese bread, not the regular white bread. I put off trying Udi’s bread because …
Tesco 2 Chocolate Sponge Puddings
I have been into various chocolate puddings lately and I need to watch it or I will get fat. I spotted this packet of 2 Chocolate Sponge Puddings in the chilled section of Tesco today and, especially as it was only £1, I thought I would treat myself …
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Deep Dish Mini Pizzas Cheese
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Deep Dish Mini Pizzas Cheese variety look better on the box than they do once they are on my plate and I’m looking down on them. The cheese doesn’t look as smooth and comparable to a pizzeria-style pizza and the crust doesn’t come quite as …
Marketside Hawaiian-Style Traditional Crust Pizza
This is one exotic pizza that I tried once and have had my fill of for a lifetime! It can be found at Walmart in the deli section for just around six dollars for a twelve inch pizza. It may very well be that this pizza is well made …
Lambertz Exquisit biscuits Orange stick
I must say that I’ve tried this cookie before I saw that its name was Orange stick so when I read the name I got like. ‘And where’s the orange here?’ Usually I adore the combination of chocolate and orange and I am used to feel the strong taste …
H.K. Anderson Peanut Butter Filled Pretzel Nuggets
This is an entirely different kind of pretzel! It’s a pretzel with peanut butter on the inside. I never gave much thought to how pretzels and peanut butter would taste together. I was familiar with pretzels and cheese, but pretzels and peanut butter? I had to give them a …
Quaker Popped Cheddar Cheese Rice Snacks
Quaker Popped Cheddar Cheese Rice Snacks Is product I grabbed at my neighborhood Kroger, when they were running a two for three sale on them. Given that it was a snack from Quaker, I wasn’t hesitate to give it a try. Quaker is one of those brands that …
Belmont Premium Ice Cream Cookies & Cream
Belmont Premium Ice Cream Cookies & Cream comes in a one point five quart container for two dollars and forty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. This is an all natural ice cream that’s all good in my book! This ice cream combines two tasty things: chocolate cookies and …
Breakfast Best Pumpkin Spice Waffles
Come the end of September, beginning of October, it’s a happy time for pumpkin lovers! This is the time of the year when foods and drinks get an infusion of pumpkin flavoring. Pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin ice cream, pumpkin bread and of course, pumpkin pie, are all common …
Hershey’s - Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels
Hershey’s - Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels are mildly tasty, although really, they are no better than the Flipz Milk Chocolated Covered Pretzels or the Nabisco brand, but they also are no worse. Just like the other brands, these pretzels are covered in a mildly present milk chocolate layer that …
Quaker Fruit Oatmeal Very Berry Muffin
And so the kids are ready to go back to schools, feeling excited to see their new batch of classmates, wanting to brag about their new shoes, new uniforms, newly covered books and notebooks. But most importantly, they show-off their new lunch box and what’s inside it. Last school …
