I bought Sunkist California Pistachios when they were on sale, and still they were a bit expensive, almost $5 for a 14 oz plastic container. For some reason, pistachios are always more pricy than peanuts. Still, once in a while I treat myself to them. Sunkist pistachios are dry …

Bornvita is the name of the health drink, which is used by many families in India. It is said that the bornvita contains all the nutrition values, which are needed for the growing kids and also for the young generation. I don’t know about the nutritional values …

When Lyndsey and I have put our two young children to bed we often open a bottle of wine to drink whilst relaxing after a busy day. This is our time together with what we want on television instead of watching Kurt and Josh’s favourite programme such as Mickey …

Feeling a little thirsty while waiting for my husband, I stepped into a 24-hour convenience store to get a drink. It’s funny that there are no tetra pack drinks available there. I checked the refrigerators twice over just to make sure.
I knew that getting a normal-sized canned drink of …

I don’t usually drink wine because I don’t drink any alcohol often but sometimes I really like to take a glass of wine after lunch or in the evening, specially because they say that red wine is good for your hear and the blood.
I saw the commercial on TV …

Product Description: Johnsonville bratwurst made with turkey rather than pork and filled with cheddar cheese. We recently bought a pack for around $3.
What I liked about this product: Whenever I hear the word turkey, I naturally start thinking there will be a difference in taste that I will not …

When I was in school and my parents packed me my lunch, often times, a pudding cup would make its way in there for dessert. I’m pretty confident I went through quite a few pudding cups as a child, certainly far more than I do as an adult now, …

I have been addicted to Starbuck’s Mocha Frappachinos for quite some time, and I am pretty sure that they add something into their coffee drinks to make them so addicting that you come back for more. I also have to say that I think it is quite an …

»Nutella« is possibly the most widespread and most beloved among of the products of the Italian company Ferrero Rocher. It is certainly long-lived, too: it was originally invented in 1949. It is a creamy »chocolate-hazelnut« (the description varies, depending on each country’s laws about advertising) spread that many like …

I often buy a few boxes of Fiddle Faddle from my local Dollar General. I get the blue boxes, the butter toffee flavor. Each box weighs six ounces and has 0 grams of trans fat. The popcorn snack comes sealed inside a foil pouch, so the treat is always …

If I do say so myself, I make a mean chocolate chip cookie from scratch. Chocolate chip cookies are my favorites, and they always have been. If you want to get on my good side with a cookie, make it a good chocolate chipper and you can’t …

I picked up bread the other day thinking we didn’t have any at home. But, as it turns out, my wife convinced my parents to pick up some groceries for us since they were at the store anyway and she didn’t want to go out in the cold with …

I’ve started making pies with these store-bought crusts because I think they’re easier to work with than homemade crusts. One of my favorite types of pie crust is graham cracker pie crust, and these are even better when they’re made of chocolate graham crackers!
I think these crusts take the …

I love to eat cheesecakes. I have always wanted to bake cheesecakes but found that it was too much of a hassle to do so. I have had a lot of cheesecakes that I have tried, and since I cannot afford to buy cheesecakes all the time, every time, …

Now here is a simple yet scrumptious sandwich that I love to order at Chick-fil-A. The Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich is a very simple sandwich, yet the flavor it offers and its size are two factors that make this simple sandwich a winner in my eyes and stomach! This chicken …

I often have no much time to cook or even go out to eat, so I’ ve tried a lot of pre-cooked products. Stouffer’s is by far the best. Seriously, no exaggeration! The best thing about them that I love is they do not taste like they are …

This is another product that I found in the Tony’s Chippy range. Not sure if this is a new range that has come out, but I have only started seeing these products recently in my local Supermarket. Lets hope that there is more products that come out from this …

First of all, I had better emphasise that “jelly” in the case of this product means the British use of the word, as in what Americans tend to call “Jell-O”, rather than being any sort of jam. Hartley’s is the company that bought out the old Rowntree’s Jelly products …

We all have been told to “eat your bran” cereal, and just the sound of it makes you turn up your nose. I have been fortunate to actually try Kellogg’s All Bran cereal and it is not quite half bad, it actually grows on you, the more you …

I drink Gin and Tonic when we are entertaining friends, but it is difficult to find a decent dry Gin, unless you buy Quality House Extra Dry Gin. It is 35% alcohol, and I usually purchase the smaller bottle of 200 ml.
Quality House Exrta Dry Gin is refreshing when served …

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 …

After tasting and becoming addict to the band of Fuze, I’ve decided to try another flavor from their slenderize line. Since I enjoyed the previous flavor, I knew that I would most likely this particular flavor especially since it has strawberries involved. At only a $1.50 I felt that …

After seeing another one of her other cakes, I wanted to try this one. Though, I’m not crazy about lemon flavored food items, this cake actually turned out to be the best. The frosting can be a little sweet for some but for me it was just fine. However, …

I’m not a big fan of store-bought pasta sauce, but this is one of my favorites. Although it still seems to have a bit too much tanginess to it, as is the problem with most store-bought sauces, it has good flavor and it’s not too expensive.
Emeril’s sauces are a …

From the Mars company, Twix Cookie Bars are a combination of chocolate and caramel that have a cookie crunch to them versus just a candy taste.
Quite honestly, I’m not a big fan of Twix Cookie Bars. They definitely do have that cookie crispness and that’s probably one reason …

Ever since I started with my weight loss journey two months ago, I started love snacking on yoghurt. They are surprisingly yummy, filling, healthy and low in caloric content too. Unfortunately, they can be very expensive for my meager budget. The typical Nestle yoghurt costs around Php31 per 125 …

I am a lover of instant food. I do not cook much, so instant foods are my loyal companion, especially at night.
One of the instant food I love is Kraft Mac and Cheese, spiral macaroni. I love them! I just have to add milk and butter. …

My Old time favorite is Lay’s potato chips. There could never been taste it better. I like the thin crisp of their potato chips. It’s always been a mouth watering taste and flavors to choose from. But I stick to one of their flavor which is Sour cream and …

I’ve always liked baking for as long as I can remember. Sometimes I bake from scratch from family recipes, and other days I have to take a short cut, when I am short on time. I like to turn to the Betty Crocker Super Moist Cake Mixes. Not only …

I love chips and I love nibbling them while watching DVD movies or TV shows. Why I crave for this is because of the greatness of its taste. But before, potato chips were solely the famous choice. It is high in sodium and bad for the kidneys if we eat …

Sugar free natura is a low calorie sugar substitute, which comes in the form of very small tablets. These sugar free substitutes are used for cooking instead of using the sugar to avoid the extra calories. It is an ideal product for the diabetic patients. This …

Reggano 100% Grated Parmesan Cheese is a basic Parmesan cheese that I’ve used on as a topping for several different meals, but most commonly spaghetti, lasagna, and other pastas. In my opinion, this particular brand of grated cheese does not particularly stand out from the competition. There …

If you want to re-create the experience of buying hot, doughy, decadent Cinnabon rolls that you enjoy at shopping malls–then look no further than your dairy section at the supermarket. Pillsbury is right on the money with their latest culinary creation: Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls. With only …

If you’re a fan of Jasmine rice but aren’t a rice cooker then I highly recommend giving this product a try. It is probably my favorite rice on the market today. I’ve never been good at cooking rice. I always have to buy the precooked rice …

It looks like a mayonnaise in a bottle or a sandwich spread, but Cheesy Ragu Light Parmesan Alfredo is something else. I bought this product out of curiosity when it says made with real cheese and the drawing on the bottle shows how you can add this on your …

If you are traveling to SW Florida, one of the local favorites is the Working Cow. My entire family has a sweet tooth and is always looking for an ice cream place to eat. Yes, we could go to Dairy Queen or something normal like that. But as we …

I bought a small box of Jacquot Truffles yesterday. Imported from France, these were supposed to be good! I couldn’t wait to get home and try them. Unfortunately, I was in for a disappointment: when I opened the nice golden box and the protective pouch inside, instead of truffles …

The Great Value Devil’s Food Cakes are sold only at Walmart stores as this is a Walmart brand product. For twelve cakes, the price for a box is two dollars. I feel that the price for these cakes is fair considering the quantity and quality. The cakes never taste …

I tried to like Tofurky, but just could not do it. This product is revolutionary and really is a healthy option as well as being a vegetarian’s dream, but in my opinion, it stinks! We made tofurky and the entire family sat down to eat it and all I …

I like having granola bars (or something similar) on hand in our house. This is both because they work great as part of school lunches and because it’s always nice to have something like that within easy reach if I don’t get time to have a big lunch and …

I first bought these cookies after seeing an advertisement on TV for them. I’m not generally swayed at all by adverts, but these cookies really did look absolutely delicious: a normal chocolate chip cookie, with a smooth chocolatey filling inside? Yes, definitely something I’d love.
So I went to my …

Wendy’s - Triple Stack is not quite as flavorful as the Double Stack. The reason? Although a third hamburger patty is added to the sandwich, at the same time, toppings are removed. Both the pickles and onions get the boot on the this sandwich and that is definitely disappointing …

Typically, I’m a pretty big fan of anything that has caramel in it as the primary ingredient because I really enjoy the flavor of caramel. That’s why whenever I come across something in the store that has caramel in it, there’s a high chance I’ll give it a try, …

The other day I was in the grocery store trying to pick out a honey for my tea and I found Golden Blossom Honey. It was Grade A pure honey and had a very mild sweet taste to it. It actually tasted wonderful in my tea because it didn’t …

This item was available in Hong Kong branches of McDonalds. I often had this item during my stay in Hong Kong - it definitely quenches thirst and it’s a refreshing change from the same old drinks here in North America.
The coconut pineapple mcfloat has pineapple soda with icecream on …

What attracted me to try this sandwich was not the chicken, or the applewood-smoked bacon, or the smoked cheddar, or even Panera’s tomato basil loaf bread. It was the ancho chipotle spread, which is a creamy, spicy and smoky spread that’s supposed to meld the components of the …

Yesterday I allowed my son to have a last minute play date with one of his friends from school. Since the play date fell on a school night, I decided to let them bake holiday cookies instead of playing with video games. I decided on the activity of baking cookies …

The crosin syrup is the best medicine for my kids when they have cold and cough and even the fever. Whenever they are suffering from cold and fever I do not take my kids to the doctor because my doctor had prescribed me this wonderful syrup and had …
