Hill Bros French Vanilla Cappuccino Drink Mix
Who wants refreshing cappuccino drink? I am. I just recently discovered cappuccino drink mix from Hills Bros when my friend visited me at home. He have this different chocolate drinks and that includes Hills Bros. I only drink cappuccino when I bought 3-in-1 coffee from Nescafe but this one …
Red Baron 4 Cheese Deep Dish Frozen Pizza
If you are looking at pizza reviews, or reading this, you are most likely a pizza lover or know someone who is. I absolutely love a good pizza, and I hope this helps you to find yet another inexpensive way to enjoy one of your favorite foods. I …
Strawberry Crush
Wow, what timing! I really can’t believe it, in fact, but a few days ago I did a review for Welch’s Strawberry Soda, and I mentioned there that the only reason I’d purchased it was because I just couldn’t find Crush anymore. As ironic as it sounds, …
Kroger Potato Chips - Sour Cream and Onion
I did not care too much for the Kroger brand of sour cream and onion chips. Unlike the regular, rippled chips from Kroger, these chips really did not offer a very strong or memorable flavor of sour cream or onion. Neither flavor managed to stand out too well. I …
Stouffer’s Sesame Chicken
Stouffer’s Sesame Chicken is a meal that I most likely will not purchase a second time. The reason I will not be buying this frozen dinner again is because of the sweet and sour sauce. It is just too much for me. I do not like how the sauce …
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 …
Cellogs corn flakes
Cellogs corn flakes are a new snack, which my kids just love it. When I had been to the market just 4 days back, I saw this packet and wanted to give a try. These corn flakes are the products of the company called Cellogs. These …
Pan De Manila
Breakfast is not complete without bread in the table. I like eating breads specially when I have a hot chocolate to sip. Here in the Philippines, the most famous bread product is Pan De Sal. And speaking of Pan De Sal, I discovered one bakery inside a mall that …
Body Mint Breath and Body Freshening Tablet
I love this product. I wish it’s available everywhere or at least the manufacturing company has distributors worldwide especially in the tropical countries like the Philippines. I got it last year from my relatives in the states and well it’s kinda expensive unless you are a dealer yourself you …
Garden of Eatin’ Blue Corn Tortilla Chips
I am totally hooked on these chips. We gave them a try on a whim, and we liked them so much we have begun to buy them about once every week. We buy ours at Earth Fare grocery store, but I’m not sure what other stores sell them. Even …
Angostura Soy Sauce
It was the holiday season and I was rushing for ingredients to make a special dinner for some relatives I would be having over. Unfortunately one of the ingredients I needed to pick up at the store was soy sauce.
I think everyone had the same idea I did and …
Skittles
I hadn’t had Skittles in a while; probably a good three or four years. I remember eating a ton of them back in the day. I couldn’t “taste the rainbow” enough, I guess, and when I did, I’d find myself riding quite a sugar high, followed by the inevitable …
Pillsbury Grands Butter Flaky Biscuits
I’m not really a biscuit fan until my mom made me try the Pillsbury Grands butter flaky biscuits. They turned out to be the opposite of most of the biscuits I’ve eaten, and the best part was that I actually ate them instead of throwing them out.
Somehow I ended …
Walkers crisps promotional packs - dutch edam cheese flavour
I had the pleasure of trying Walkers crisps dutch edam cheese flavour the other day. They have been released as part of a promotional competition where people choose their favourite flavour from a range different types. The promotional packs link into the forthcoming football world cup. You can …
Sonny Cappuccino
I have 5 different discounts near my house and that actually means that I rarely buy stuff that isn’t on discount, that was the case with Sonny Cappuccino too. I saw that 350g of this cappuccino cost only 1,95 Euro, on discount of course, although usually I pay that …
Presidents Choice organics fruit snacks for toddlers
One of the best things about being a mom is seeing the joy and excitement on your new baby’s face when they recognize a package or know you are going to give them a treat! Sometimes it is hard to decide what to give, and what kind of …
Gelatelli Strawberry ice cream
In my family cheap ice creams aren’t very popular. My parents and my sister would rather buy a very expensive ice cream just once a week than several cheaper ice creams so that they could eat ice cream every day in the week. I am not like that …
Great Value: Butter Flavored Pancake & Waffle Syrup
Great Value: Butter Flavored Pancake & Waffle Syrup is a decent syrup that is manufactured by Walmart, so the syrup is actually the cheapest syrup that can be purchased, if I recall correctly. By no means is this syrup the richest or thickest that I have ever tried, but …
Echo Mint Chocolate Bars
I got addicted to a very similar chocolate bar from Marks & Spencers, but I started buying these —˜Echo’ bars from Wilkinsons as they are very similar but a lot cheaper, at 89 pence for a packet of 6 bars. These are quite a small size at about …
Jack and Jill Nips Chocolate
Another chocolate that became part of my childhood is Nips. Nips are a chocolate-coated tid bits that are small circles from Jack and Jill. One pack cost PHP 13 for 40g. The color coat varies from different colors like red, blue, and green, yellow, black and white. When you …
Fresh Crab Cakes (Albertson’s)
I usually do all of my seafood shopping at my local Albertson’s grocery store. They usually have good sales and quality seafood, unlike other stores near my area. One day I was there to purchase my lobster tail for the month when I cam across some advertised crab cakes. …
Caribbean Dreams Honey Ginger Tea
The first time I tasted the Caribbean Dreams Honey Ginger Tea was a couple years ago when my parents picked up a pack of it at the supermarket. I was glad that they bought it even though I would have liked to support a local industry since I was …
Campbell’s Soup at Hand
What’s better than enjoying a bowl of soup? The answer — drinking a cup of soup, especially in front of a fire or cozied into your favorite chair. In the past when you wanted to drink soup. you had to pour it into your mug or cup, …
Nestle KitKat chocolate bar
Nestle KitKat is probably one of the few snacks I’ve enjoyed since young. Even till this date, I have KitKat cravings every now and then! KitKat is a waffle bar, coated with milk chocolate. In my opinion, the price of one KitKat bar is reasonably low for such a …
Prince Albert’s soft sweet vanilla cigars
I have Prince Albert’s soft and sweet vanilla cigars. They are little cigars that taste very good and fairly inexpensive at just 4.79 a box at the local CVS. These little cigars come with a filter tip so you dont have the nasty cigar taste in your …
Highland Brewing Company Thunderstruck Porter
There are so many local breweries in Asheville, North Carolina, and I finally got to try one of Highland Brewing Company’s seasonal brews: their Thunderstruck Coffee Porter. I really like porters and darker beers in general, and this beer is definitely a good solid porter.
I first tried the beer …
Marlboro Lights
Marlboro Lights is the cigarette brand that I patronize. It tastes just right and since it’s lights, the nicotine content is not too high. The smell is also not as irritating as the other brands and not that strong. One complaint that I have about this product is that …
President’s Choice Crunchy Mixed Berry Cereal
When I bought the President’s Choice Crunchy Mixed Berry Cereal, I thought of it as a “poor man’s Special K”. Personally, I am not big on brand names (whether it’s food or clothing), so I picked up the PC brand instead of Kellogg’s.
The cereal is a mix of dried …
Sainsbury’s Basics Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
Baked beans in tomato sauce are about the most basic of all basics when it comes to British cooking, since we eat far more baked beans than just about any other country in the world. Sainsbury’s budget “Basics” range therefore carries a fairly good selection of similar products, but …
Maxwell House Half Caff Original Roast Coffee
I have already tried Maxwell House before as a coffee brand. That was the flavored variety. I always love flavored coffee during ordinary days but there that days when you really want a high doze of concentrated caffeinated coffee to perk you up. Sadly, when I tried this, I was …
Hidden Valley Ranch dressing
Hidden Valley Ranch dressing is the only dressing that I like in my salads. It’s the best dressing if you ask me. It’s thick and creamy and has a taste like no other dressing out there. I had a Kraft ranch low fat dressing once and that is alright, …
Crunch Peanut Butter Candy Eggs
I can’t get over this because the taste is still in my mouth, and that taste is something that I really don’t care for. The only reason I bought these was because I thought they were the regular Crunch Eggs. The bag shows the Crunch logo in big letters, …
Quaker Rice Cakes
I decided recently that I wanted to lose a little weight; ok I needed to lose a lot of weight. The problem with this is I hate to be hungry. Not that I had any plans on starving myself. I did know that I would have to cut down …
Cedarlane Roasted Chile Relleno
I have never had Relleno before, so I had no idea whether I would enjoy it or not when I purchased it. However, it sounded good, and since I am usually pretty satisfied with the frozen meals that this company makes, I figured I would give it a try. …
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 …
Kraft Grated Parmesan, Romano and Asiago Cheese
I never could quite make out the difference between this cheese and the Kraft Parmesan and Romano blend. This cheese may have tasted a tad sweeter, but that I’m not even sure of. Asiago cheese must not be very strong in taste or aroma, at least, not when compared …
Southern Grove Salted Cashews
Aldi’s is an inexpensive grocery store that I like to shop at. I like a number of their products. I enjoy most of their food and wine.
My most recent product that I have tried is Southern Grove Salted Cashews. They are very tasty.I think any cashew lover would enjoy …
Doritos Jacked 3D Jalapeno Pepper Jack Tortilla Snacks
I had the opportunity to give Doritos Jacked 3D Jalapeno Pepper Jack Tortilla Snacks a try one day while out for lunch at Subway. I normally don’t purchase chips to go with my sandwiches, but I was particularly curious about the chips and couldn’t resist grabbing a bag.
The …
Godfather’s Pizza Southern Ontario
Godfather’s makes some of the best pizza around, for sure. They are absolutely delicious, especially when compared to a lot of the other pizza chains your going to be seeing in southern Ontario. Pizza Pizza is nothing compared to the delicious Godfathers Pizza.
I especially enjoy their Tuesday …
Horlicks lite
There are many health drinks for children and for those who want to gain some weight, but the only health drink which is very very light and those who are dieting to reduce their weight can have it, and that drink is Horlics lite. It is as light …
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts
I don’t like donuts, or doughnuts very much. The truth is i find them too fancy, they are sweetened breads with icing on top and nothing more. I have never craved for anything that is donut or looks like a donut until a krispy kreme shop has opened here …
3 Roses dust tea
3 roses dust tea is a very old and good branded tea, which is existing since more than 8 years in India. Actually the quality of this tea powder is very good and gives a avery good aroma. The 3 roses are the 3 good qualities of …
Snyder’s of Hanover Jalapeno Pretzel Pieces
I am a fan of pretzels and jalapeno so I thought it would be a good idea to try the Snyder’s of Hanover Jalapeno Pretzel Pieces. I had never tried the pretzel brand before but it looked very enticing and high quality in its shiny foil packaging.
The pretzels …
Healthy Ones Cooked Ham
A while back, I decided to give Healthy Ones Cooked Ham a try. The package says it’s 97% fat free and it boasts the symbol of the American Heart Association. I’m not a dieter, though I should be, and I’m very finicky about what foods I eat. …
Friendly Farms All Natural Almond Milk Chocolate
Almond milk is a wonderful substitute to have in place of traditional dairy milk. In many respects, it’s a healthier, albeit a little pricier, alternative, that’s great to have if one doesn’t mind the somewhat nutty taste that it has. It is made from almonds after all, so it’s …
Seagram’s Seven Crown Whiskey
As someone without a lot of cash or liquid assets, my choices in booze are more limited than I would like. It would be nice if I could drink twelve year old scotch or microbrew every time I want to get drunk, but my budget won’t allow that. What …
Paramount Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon
Salmon is my favorite fish and I prefer to buy Paramounts Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon because it is the best tasting salmon by far. I can also buy Paramounts Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon at a great price. I usually pay just $2.29 for a 210g net tin. I also …
Original Ceylon Tea Company: 1001 Nights
This is a lovely, refreshing and mellow black tea with flavors of fruit and roses. I bought this tea on a whim from Grocery Outlet - how I love being able to try new things on the cheap — and when I sip it I am filled with …
Lean Cuisine Spaghetti with Meatballs Frozen Entree
I love spaghetti and meatballs! Who doesn’t? This is one dish I can never turn down because it is just so tasty. And I think Lean Cuisine’s recipe is a classic and so very delicious. It’s also relatively inexpensive compared to some of their other products.
The spaghetti and …
Candylicious Peanut Fudge
I love fudge and the best fudge I have ever came across is made by the people that run a small candy stall in a local mall. The name of their small store is Candylicious and they make a variety of sweets and fudges. One of my absolute favourite …
