Sepp’s Frozen Waffles
Product Description: A box of 6 frozen buttermilk waffles available in select grocery stores’ breakfast sections.
What I liked about this product: My purchase of this product came down to one thing, the price. I found a box of these for about $1. This is roughly $2 less than most …
Annies Homegrown Bunny Chocolate Grahams
I was looking for a natural whole grain snack, came across the Annies Homegrown Bunny Chocolate Grahams, and picked up a box. The box of chocolate bunny grahams was reasonably priced and contained 7.5 ounces of whole grain chocolate snack sized cookie bunnies inside the box, which was a …
Arizona Diet Green Tea
My office has been having this Green Tea challenge for awhile now. They are drinking something around three glasses of tea a day. The only problem is they are drinking a powder mix that contains high fructose corn syrup. I’m trying to be very health conscious and I was …
Iceberg Restaurant’s Yum Yum Cheesy Nachos
I just recently realized that the Icebergs Restaurant along Tomas Morato serves other dishes other than ice cream. So along with the ice cream dessert that we ordered, we also ordered a nice, easy to eat dish for the afternoon. My husband and I chose their Yum Yum Cheesy …
Vermont Nut Free Maple Cremes
Christmas time is when my friends and family scattered around the world start sending me candy to share at the holidays. I have a lot of friends living in different parts of the US and since they know how much I love candy, they’re always trying to send me …
Lean Cuisine Oriental Beef Stirfry
On my quest for low fat healthy dinners, I recently bought Lean Cuisine’s Oriental Beef Stirfry dinner for $2.99CDN.
I had only ever had Lean cuisine chicken dinners before, so I was curious as to how good the beef one would be.
The meal looked great on the cardboard box. Lot’s …
Diana Almond Milk Toffee
I’m not sure where exactly this brand of toffee is made, or what country it was manufactured in, but I know that my father brought a bag of it home one night a couple months ago. He saw someone selling a pack of them on the road, and decided …
Marco’s Pizza - Sausage Pizza
When I have a taste for a flavorful and delicious sausage pizza, I head on over to Marco’s Pizza. The reason I go to Marco’s Pizza when my mouth is watering for a tasty sausage pizza is because unlike so many pizza joints, both local and of the big …
Lay’s Popchips Sour Cream and Onion Flavor
I first bought Lays Popchips while I was shopping for lunch supplies at Target. They weren’t very expensive for a specialty chip, but they were expensive as compared to regular chips at about $4.98 per bag. I really wasn’t looking for a new kind of chip but when I …
Jell-o Pudding - Chocolate
Jell-o Pudding - Chocolate is not quite as good as the instant pudding that comes in the box, this ready-made chocolate pudding that comes in a three pack is still quite enjoyable. The flavor, although not as rich, is still on the same plane as delicious and I never …
Little Debbie - Blueberry Muffins
Little Debbie - Blueberry Muffins are quite the enjoyable treat! They are just so incredibly soft and moist and the blueberry flavor is just bursting all over the muffin! Every bite you are sure to find yourself with blueberries bouncing off your taste buds! The muffins are quite the …
Act II Popcorn
My wife and I ended up spending our one evening alone (in about a month) watching movies at home. We wanted to go to the theater, but it was just too expensive.
Since we were watching movies, we popped up some Act II microwave popcorn. I used to love this …
La Croix Sparkling Water
I have consumed sodas most of my life. In an effort to restrict my calorie intake, I switched from sweetened soft drinks to artificially sweetened soft drinks but I reevaluated that decision as I investigated the use of artificial sweeteners. It seems, according to several studies, that artificial sweeteners …
Log Cabin: Country Kitchen Butter Syrup
Log Cabin: Country Kitchen Butter Syrup is slightly better than the original variety, although the syrup is still not as good as the original Log Cabin syrup. What separates this syrup from the other Log Cabin varieties is the addition of butter to the recipe. There is a real …
Bob’s Red Mill Brown Rice Flour
When I first found out that I have a gluten intolerance, it was very difficult figuring out what to eat. It seemed like almost everything on the shelves at the grocery store were off limits for me. I eventually did find a few gluten free products that tasted alright, …
Ruth Chris Steakhouse near Madison, WI
We were suggested to go to this website about a year ago from one of my coworkers. I had seen this restaurant and, being a huge steak enthusiast, decided to go check it out for my birthday. Well, the first thing that I noticed was that it was quite …
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 …
Great Value Apple Flavored Drink Mix
Walmart’s brand, Great Value, makes many generic alternatives in almost any category. Last week I purchased a powdered drink mix made by (or distributed by) Walmart, made to be similar to name brand “Crystal Light.” It is sugar free, sweetened with aspartame, and has five calories per serving.
I wasn’t …
Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers
Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers are pretty good, although I do wish that the actual peppers were crispier and crunchier as opposed to be somewhat on the soft and soggy side. Oh well, one can only expect so much from frozen meals, I suppose. The green peppers do have a pretty …
Roti Jala (Lacy pancakes)
Roti Jala or also known as Lacy Pancakes are very thin-like pancakes and they are also pretty lacy, and hence the name of lacy is given. ‘Jala’ means fishing net, and if you look closely, you will see the designs of something like a fishing net.
This is a very …
Betty Crocker Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix
Product Description: Package of chocolate chip cookie mix available at most stores for around $2. You add water, butter and an egg, mix it up and bake 2-inch chocolate chip cookies. In total, it makes up to three dozen (though we only got two dozen because we made the …
Mrs. Freshley’s Apple Pie
I was not too crazy about Mrs. Freshley’s Apple Pie at all. I found the apple flavor to be rather disappointing, even after I placed it in the microwave for a few short minutes. Sometimes, heat can help bring out flavor that is normally there at room temperature. Unfortunately, …
Hungry Man Chicken Breast Dinner
I’ll admit it. I am a big fan of TV dinners (well, if they’re tasty ones). They’re quick, convenient and easy to make, and it sure beats cooking a whole meal when you want something fast. Since I enjoy TV dinners so much, I decided to …
Chick-fil-a
Chickfila is one of my favorite fast food restaurants in the entire universe. Why might you ask that this is my favorite? Well, first off their service is amazing. When I walk in everybody greets me with a warm hardy smile. Their employees always have a positive attitude and …
Sargento - Deli Style Sliced Swiss Cheese
Sargento - Deli Style Sliced Swiss Cheese is a Swiss cheese that I used to purchase quite often, along with the baby Swiss cheese. The reason I used to purchase it is because I liked how pretty much unlike every other cheese out there, the Swiss cheese would bring …
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 …
Dean’s Vanilla Ice Cream
My family loves Dean’s Vanilla Ice Cream. This ice cream is exceptionally rich and creamy and the vanilla tastes natural and not artificially sweetened. Dean’s has been around for a long time and it’s a trusted brand in my family. The 1.5 quart container of vanilla …
Mrs. Freshley’s Berry Pie
I enjoyed Mrs. Freshley’s Berry Pie much more than the apple pie variety. The reason I enjoyed the blueberry variety more is quite simple really: the blueberry filling has a pretty delightful flavor! The filling reminds me of scrumptious blueberries, as it most certainly should. The pie tastes even …
Bluewave Breaded Popcorn Shrimp
Product Description: Box of frozen breaded popcorn shrimp available at most stores for around $2 per box.
What I liked about this product: One of the biggest reasons why I picked this particular brand is it gave me a few more cooking options than some of the others that were …
Tranquil’s Chicken Sandwich
I first had a Chicken Sandwich from Tranquil when I went there to get a burger and they had none. Instead all they had to offer was this simple yet delicious and filling chicken sandwich which came at a very reasonable price.
Tranquil’s Chicken Sandwich is basically a white flour …
Marty’s Vegetable Cracklings by Oishi
I came across this Marty’s Vegetable Cracklings by Oishi in two variants, Plain Salted flavor and the salt and vinegar flavor in my favorite grocery shop. I am not fond of junks but my little ones would sometimes crave for it so I do also give them …
Tango Milk Chocolate with Hazelnuts
While looking through the snack section at the grocery store I was trying to figure out which chocolate I’d like to have today. I then came across a new brand of chocolate. Medium sized, reasonably priced and attractive packaging. The light sky blue colour and the bright hazelnuts against …
Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup
Campbell’s is a trusted maker of soups and I have been eating their products since I was a child. As expected, they have also been adapting their products towards more healthy eating trends, which is why they now offer soups with lower calories and lower levels of sodium.
My …
Magnolia Pancake Plus
One in a while I indulge myself and eat a sinfully delicious stack of pancakes. I cook for one, but most packaging are for several people. I was glad that I saw Magnolia Pancake Plus in a 200g packaging in the grocery. The label said that it can make …
Chiquita Juicy Green Apple Bites
Yesterday I was in the grocery store looking for different fruits that I could snack on through out the day at work. I came across bags of Chiquita Juicy Green Apple Bites. Also they had red apples as well. On the package it says …
Samba Corned Beef
I am being particular when it comes to preserved canned foods. It has to meet my quality. When I check on the canned goods, I have to read the expiration date and the external properties of the can. It should not have bend sides, because when you see that …
General Mills Cinnamon Burst Cheerios
While the General Mills Cinnamon Burst Cheerios cereal may be bursting with cinnamon flavor, the box that the cereal comes in certainly isn’t bursting with cereal. Ten ounces of this cereal will cost an individual around two dollars and fifty cents, depending on where the cereal is purchased. That’s …
Jelly Bellies
I’m sure everyone has heard of and tried jelly bellies. They’re tiny jelly beans that comes in over 30 different flavors. Some examples being strawberry cake or coffee or something weird like pepper. It is yummy and delicious, but I love them because it is fun to eat! You …
Wrigley’s Juicy Fruit chewing gum
I am going to write about a chewing gum that I have been using from my childhood. Wrigley’s Juicy Fruit chewing gum’s taste is very well used to my taste buds now. The juicy fruit has a very sweet taste of mixed fruits. The chewing gum is very reasonably …
Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit
Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit is a very tasty breakfast sandwich that alone is not sufficiently filling, but with two, boy am I set until lunch! The biscuit is a buttermilk one that is very soft and flaky and the chicken is tender and crunchy and loaded with flavor! The two …
Milo Powdered Malted Chocolate Drink by Nestle
I always have a chocolate drink within a day. Sometimes, I prefer chocolate drinks over coffee because some coffee have bad after effect on me. There are some coffees that makes me awake all night and would sometimes cause my muscles to move involuntarily. I grew up drinking chocolate …
Nescafe 3in1 classic
I rarely buy instant coffee drinks because I consider that a waste of money but I also like to have it at home because sometimes I really don’t feel like making coffee for myself only and then I prepare myself an instant coffee drink which is a coffee and …
Krusteaz Key Lime Bar Mix
Krusteaz Key Lime Bar Mix produces bars that I am not too, too crazy about. I mean, the lime bars are alright, but I probably will not purchase these bars again for a good long while, if ever again. I will say though that there are some definite positives …
Little Debbie Mini Donuts Powdered
Little Debbie Mini Donuts Powdered are probably my favorite of the three Little Debbie mini-donut product line. The powdered sugar on these donuts can most definitely be messy, but the powdered sugar does give the donuts quite a lot of
flavor! One bite into one of these mini-donuts will result …
Betty Crocker Bowl Appetit - Pasta Alfredo
I love Betty Crocker, which is one of my favorite brand names. I trust this company so am more inclined to try a multitude of products from them. One of their latest product lines is their Bowl Appetits, which is basically a microwave product that can be …
David’s Deli - Plain Bagels
I only purchased David’s Deli - Plain Bagels once and the reason for that is the bagels seemed to be on the stale side even though I had my first one the very next morning and the “best used by date” was far off. I always check the dates …
Pepperidge Farm Baked Simply Potato Cracker Chips
Since I began working at Campbell Soup, I’ve been looking forward to the day when I would be given samples of some of the many food products they offer. That day finally arrived on Friday when I went to World Headquarters to finally get my security badge key card.
The …
Tesco Value Pasta in Tomato and Onion Sauce
Just because an item is cheap does not mean that it is necessarily unpleasant, but this ‘Pasta in a Tomato & Onion Sauce’ from the Tesco Value range is not one of them. This was only 28 pence for a 110g sachet which gives you one portion, so …
Dempster’s Smart Bread
My family loves this bread. I would prefer that we buy brown bread over white for all the obvious nutritional and health reasons. However, our kids just don’t like brown bread. Our teenager, in fact, won’t eat brown bread at all even if there is no …
