For some, going South of the Border is a great way to have something different for dinner.
For me, Taco Bell is a nice place to eat, but not a place I dine at too often. Let’s just say I like their food, but it doesn’t like me.
Of all the …

These chocolate chip Teddy Grahams are almost as good as the chocolate Teddy Grahams! What I really like about these Teddy Grahams is that there are two flavors to be tasted, much like with regular chocolate chip cookies. There’s the chocolate chips, of course, but there’s also the cookie …

Almost everyone loves chocolates-I know I do! So my mum brought home some chocolates. It was given yo her by a friend. Since my mom is diabetic she can’t eat much. So I chowed down on them once I got hold of it.
These Chocolates look cute. They are shaped …

I’m not a huge fan of syrup like some people are, so I’m not too interested in mixing a glass of diluted syrup like myself unlike some people. The only way I would drink it, is if there is nothing else there to drink, and I really need something …

I am by no means a regular drinker of iced tea, but personally, I think this iced tea is quite flavorful and refreshing! There is no unpleasant aftertaste at all and upon enjoying a glass, I feel satisfied that I just drank something that not only tasted good, but …

I was looking for an affordable sweet snack when I found Heavenly Rewards Fudge Covered Cookies With Peanut Butter in my local Family Dollar store. There wasn’t anything outstanding about the box that caught my eye, but I think I was drawn to them because the combination of …

I’ve often said Hormel is my favorite food brand for bacon, and that’s still true, though I do use Oscar Mayer from time to time. Recently, in fact, I saw Oscar Mayer Hearty Thick Cut Bacon on sale and purchased a couple of packages.
While Hormel adds some zest …

G2 is the newest line of drinks from Gatorade. G2 is a low calorie sports drink. The 20-ounce bottle of fruit punch only contains 70 calories. Of course, it still has the benefits of electrolytes for athletes.
I decided to try it for the first time when I received a …

My mother loves coffee - maybe not quite as much as a coffee house devotee, but she MUST have a cup when she gets up, when she goes out for dinner and, strangely, every time she’s been in the ER.
After a while, the coffee she was making just didn’t …

These chives from the Tesco range of seasonings are really rather good. A lot of people are turned off by jars of seasonings, especially dried stuff, and the rise in organic food and grow your own has no doubt turned people off this simple alternative, but don’t let that …

On August 29, 2009, I bought the Starbucks Sumatra coffee beans (1 pound/453 grams) from the Canada Safeway store along King George Highway in the city of Surrey in British Columbia, Canada. It cost me $15.95 inclusive of tax. Although I don’t always buy Starbucks coffee beans, …

I came home for lunch today and was surprised my wife made a pizza for the two of us. I was thrilled about this, of course, until I actually tried it.
I have had Roma pizzas in the past and was looking forward to the 3-meat one we had in …

It is not uncommon for my family to dine on Asian cuisine at least once a week; it’s easy to make, inexpensive and a healthy alternative to the traditional Western fatty diet. I was intrigued to notice that Knorr-Lipton had entered the almost-instant food category with a new …

I wasn’t too pleased with this blueberry syrup. The main reason that I wasn’t very satisfied with this syrup is because it wasn’t as thick as the syrup I’m used to using, and that syrup is made and sold by Log Cabin. This syrup from Smucker’s was more watery …

These dried plums are much better than the dried apricots that are also made by the “Made in Nature” company because the quality is consistently good. The plums are always dried thoroughly through, leaving nothing behind but a tasty, chewy plum. It’s wonderful that they’re already pitted, so …

I have found that I can enjoy a really good pot pie. I had always thought that meat and pie could not possibly go together, but was wrong when I tried one that a friend of mine made. The last time I went grocery shopping I decided to try …

My household is absolutely a Gatorade sponsor. First of all, I like buying it becuase it keeps my children hydrated, and secondly, it has substantially less sugar than juices, sodas, or powdered drink mixes. I have found that by simply adding water to Gatorade, it lasts much …

I thought I was just getting a common or garden coffee flavoured mousse when I bought this Set of 2 Mocha Desserts from Sainsbury’s, but these are far more gourmet than that. When I took one out and peeled off the cellophane top one of the little tubs …

Continuing onward with my daily lunchtime soup odyssey, we have the next big member in the Campbell’s Chunky “starting line” of soups (AKA the official soup of the NFL, whatever the heck that means.) This time up, I’ve got in the lunch pail Campbell’s Chunky Soup Jazzy Jambalaya, our …

I really like making stor fry, getting all the vegetables together and what not to make it however can be a chore. Birds Eye has taken the work out of making stir fry by packaging this great stir fry packet. All I have to do is open the bag …

If you are trying to be a more conscientious consumer than buying organic is great. Where to start? Is it necessary to replace everything in your cupboard? Not really it depends how far you want to go and how much you want to spend. I spend close to a …

We recently tried this Safeway brand of Rainbow Rotini pasta, and found that it tastes really good for boxed noodles. If you like Rainbow Rotini macaroni noodles, you really should give this brand a chance. I enjoy it with any kind of pasta sauce. The noodles …

Nestle’s Juicy Juice Harvest Surprise, Orange Mango flavor is a treat. I bought it for my children because Juicy Juice is 100% juice and very healthy. I chose Orange Mango because I wanted a different flavor and my kids love it! This Juicy Juice blend contains grape, apple, carrot, …

Every day for the past 2 years, I’ve eaten Kashi GO LEAN Cereal for breakfast. For anyone that’s looking for a healthy, tasty, and satisfying meal at the start of the day, Kashi GO LEAN Crunch! Honey Almond Flax is a great option. With 200 calories, 500mg of omega-three …

Organic So-Delicious Nondairy Frozen Dessert is quite tasty even though it is a non-dairy product and even though it is also low fat. Despite these two factors, these dessert bars are enjoyable. The vanilla filling is creamy and rich, although it does seem to have a slight aftertaste that …

McDoanld’s French Fries are some very good food. I must say they have a very unique taste to them. I really like them even more because they are nice and salty. I really like salty food, so I guess that’s why I like these McDoanld’s French Fries so much. If …

It has been said that by the time one is thirsty, a state of dehydration already exists in the body. As a result, I am constantly trying to remember myself to drink constantly throughout the day. Because I generally enjoy most diet beverages or waters, I picked …

There’s not much difference in the number of calories in “Cooper’s Lite Garlic Texas Toast” and “Cooper’s Garlic Texas Toast”. The difference is thirty calories, actually. There’s also fifty percent less fat, but the fat content isn’t as significant as the calorie content, and the number of calories difference …

Oh boy. Well, if you guys have not tried these, then your missing out on life! I am actually not a huge fan of Entenmann’s other muffins and such, they are okay but not my favorite, these just blow all of their other products out of the park though. …

Grey Goose Vodka is probably the best tasting and smoothest vodka I haver ever had. It can be kind of expensive but the quality makes it worth it. You can get the big bottle of Grey Goose for only $47.99 at Costco and that is a great deal. I like …

It’s breakfast time once again! And once again, I have an old favorite brand “returning to the ring” with a new flavor on toast– Cooper Farms Fig Preserves. But, how is it? Is it up to the spreadable snuff? As always, you guys know I’m going to find out!
In …

I love buying these as they save me money over the top-selling national brand. At the store where I buy them, they are thirty cents cheaper per box than the Velveeta brand and that saving goes way up if you compare the price to the local supermarket (who wants …

I purchased Del Monte’s Fruit Chillers Freeze and Eat tubes and am so glad that I did because they taste just like those yummy freeze and eat popsicles that we ate as kids. You know, the ones that were 100% sugar? The great thing about these is …

This particular flavor of Special K cereal really does not have, well, flavor, in my opinion. Where exactly is the yogurt and fruit flavor? Did they forget to put it in the box? I had to add my own fresh fruit and have a cup of yogurt just to …

You may be someone who is naturally adventurous. On the other hand, you may be the entire reverse. You may be quite happy to see what the world looks like on TV and have no great wish to travel to foreign parts where they speak other languages. It may …

I recently had a chance to try this product when we used it as part of dinner last night.
Normally, I am not a big fan of canned or jarred pasta sauces; mostly because the majority of them lack anything in terms of flavor. And, to be perfectly honest, I …

I am reviewing one of my favorite brands of cereal, Fruit Loops. Fruit Loops is a breakfast cereal produced by Kelloggs. It is available in Canada, The United States, Latin America, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Germany, so if you are reading this you are probably a short …

Zestea is one of the tea with jasmine flavor on it. The taste is simply refreshing and cool.
I like the original one best, because it has very nice taste, and smell. Even more better when it served cold, as it will bring you the sensation of fresh and …

I recently bought the Virginia Meatballs and Beans. This is manufactured by Virginia Foods in Mandaue City, Metro Cebu, Philippines. The can I bought was 226 gms. But I saw a smaller sized can too although I was not able to take note of its size.
This can was supposedly …

Magic Hats beer Jinx is my favorite of all the magic hats beers. The beer is seasonal, which means it isn’t available year round, a fat that makes me very upset when I go to purchase beer in the winter months. Jinx is a brown ale that is creamy …

Gelato is an Italian version of ice cream that is widely know to be more rich and more creamy than regular ice cream. Well the first gelato I ever tasted came from Paulo’s Gelato. The flavour I opted to try was their Raspberry Cheesecake Gelato.
When I first ordered my …

I have one major sweet tooth and although there are rarely any chocolate combination I don’t like, there are some which are top of my list favourites. One of these happen to be chocolate with crisp rice cereal throughout the bar or even just in the middle, like the …

When I was a kid, my family had a much-anticipated weekend tradition. On Saturday, after a full day of house-cleaning and chores, my parents took their children to Denny’s Restaurant for a late dinner. After sharing a platter of nachos as an appetizer, I always ordered the …

The new so-called Fire Safe Cigarettes (FSC) are now the only cigarettes people can buy in most American states. This law recently went into effect, and as a smoker, it affects me directly. In Arizona, the stores began the switch months ago, and these are the only cigarettes I …

My wife and I are both trying to eat healthier, both to watch our own weight and to set a good example for our daughter. Part of this has been trying to find healthier snacks to eat when we are hungry.
We recently purchased a bag of Borden Double Twist …

The Cheesy smothered Charbroiled Patty Meal by Banquet looks rather gross on the box. Usualy the picture on the box is better than the actually meal but this is opposite. I kept over looking it when I would go to by my frozen dinners just because the picture on …

Recently, I was very fortunate to come across a website which sells a wide range of loose leaf teas: Teavana.com. While I have only known of them for a short amount of time, I have had the pleasure of trying out a particularly pleasing tea of theirs: …

Hambruger Helper is a Betty Crocker product that is basically a “meal in a box”. All you have to do is add ground beef,and usually, water and milk. With the Classic Stroganoff flavor, you add water and milk to the pan after …

Kettle Brand makes my absolute favorite kind of potato chips, and the simple sea salt version gives you the most potato flavor and has an excellent crunch. I like Kettle Brand potato chips so much that I don’t even bother buying other types of potato chips anymore, except the …

As I am getting older, I am gradually becoming more and more health conscious of what I eat. I believe it is increasingly more important to mind your health and what you eat as you get older. For this reason I try to keep a variety of healthier type …
