Homemade Flamez Hot Pepper Sauce
I am one of those people who likes putting hot pepper sauce on nearly everything I eat from hot dogs, to sandwiches to lasagne. Therefore, when I saw that there was a new local brand of hot pepper sauce that I hadn’t tried before, I decided to buy it. …
Marky’s Pilipit (Twisted Pastry)
Another Filipino Pastry is the “Pilipit”; Pilipit means Twisted. This pastry is usually sweet and is often expected to be hard; more than crunchy, you have got to have a good strong set of teeth to be able to enjoy this pastry. I missed eating this one, and have …
Jif Creamy Peanut Butter
So nothing special this time. Just the most popular peanut butter in the US. Maybe the second most popular, oк the third, I haven’t really checked the ratings. But for me, this is the best creamy peanut butter from the store so far. A few weeks ago I got on …
Amici Italian Restaurant
Before Amici was officially a restaurant it was only a “canteen” at the Don Bosco school; people would go to the school just to eat there but now there are several branches spread across Metro Manila because of the demand.
The prices mostly compliment the taste of their cooking …
Kitchens of India Heat and Eat packs
I find so many supposedly ‘instant’ dishes that can be found in the supermarket are not really instant at all. Some of them you have to fiddle around with cups of milk and spoonfuls of margarine, others take almost an hour in the oven or are just very messy. …
Hot Can Self Heating Beverage - Cafe Mocha
I love coffee, especially mochas. And wandering around the Dollar Tree the other day, I discovered these super cool little cans of coffee. “Self Heating Beverage” really sparked my curiosity, and the fact that theyre only a dollar? Totally worth a try!
So basically, the directions are on the …
Quaker Chewy Yogourt Bars
These new granola bars are much tastier than most granola bars. The layer of yogourt on the bottom adds a nice smooth taste to the granola.
It is also a nice portable snack - I like to grab one on my way out of the house to eat in the …
PBJ In A Package
When I first heard about Uncrustables, the thought that came to my mind was, “Packaged PBJ sandwiches? How stupid! I can make my own PBJ sandwiches!”
But then one day, I was in a big hurry… I had to leave straight from work, pick up my children, and take them …
Chivas Regal
I was out last night with my friends and decided not to drink beer as i can’t seem to get over the last experience i had with a local Beer i drank. So i had half a dozen shots of Chivas Regal. I’ve mostly been used to J&B and …
Drumstick Original Vanilla Ice Cream Cones
When it comes to eating ice cream cones, going to a fancy ice cream shop is never as good as buying the Nestle Drumstick original vanilla ice cream cones. You get the nice toppings with no mess or the fuss.
The box I of Drumstick’s ice cream I purchased had …
Stevia In The Raw, Zero Calorie Sweetener
Stevia in the Raw is a product I was introduced to by a good friend. As the days go by I am leaning away from traditional ways of sweetening my beverages and foods. I do not like artificial sweeteners, simply because they are disgusting and I try to stay …
Gainesville Texas Burger
A new little burger joint just recently opened up in Gainesville, Texas. Burgers and More located on Grand Street is AWESOME! They have every kind of burger you can imagine. I ordered the burger meal. Man, was it alot of food! There was so much on my plate I …
Marlboro Virginia Blend Cigarettes
Tough economic times call for drastic measures when buying cigarettes. My usual brand are the rich and smooth Parliment Lights 100’s, but they are up to $45 a carton in the Los Angeles area. I was looking for some filler brands to stretch my cigarette budget, and stumbled upon …
Gery Romeo Chocolate Wafer
Gery is the famous product from Garudafood that produce something kind like chocolate and wafer. Gery Romeo Chocolate Wafer is one of product from Gery that I like.

Subway’s meatball subs
My brother got me hooked on meatball subs years ago when we went to a deli called Dibella’s. I tried it once, and never looked back. While there aren’t any Dibella’s in my area (either Annapolis or Wichita) I have been able to continue to enjoy meatball …
Gatorate Thirst Quencher in Twist Top Bottle
I prefer to purchase Gatorade Thirst Quencher specifically in the 24 ounce twist top bottles. The regular bottles with the removable caps are more difficult for my small children to manage. In addition they are not so easily re-usable and tend to make a lot of mess. …
Eggo Muffin Tops
We were at the store last night and decided to pick up some frozen breakfast foods. While in the frozen pancake/waffle aisle, I came across Eggo Muffin Tops and, because they weren’t that expensive, decided to give them a try.
After trying them this morning, I do think they were …
Shirataki Pasta at Life Grocery in Marietta, GA
My mom was in Life Grocery and spotted a bag of shirataki noodles and knew I would love these noodles. I am always enjoying new foods and ways to cook. I tried the noodles the same day my mom gave me the bag, and I instantly fell …
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 …
So Delicious Coconut Milk
My son is lactose intolerant and has had problems with digestion since he was born. It has been a challenge to find a milk alternative that he can tolerate. We tried goat’s milk, soy milk and lactose-free milk all without much success. He did a little better on the …
Birch Tree Full Cream Milk Powder - 100% Full Cream Milk Powder
I am not fussy when it comes to food. If you have read most of my reviews regarding food, you might find mostly good reviews about food. I have to tell you my wonderful lifetime experience about Birch Tree Full Cream Milk Powder - 100% Full Cream Milk Powder. …
Cloud 9 Munch Monster
I grew up enjoying some local chocolate treats here in the Philippines. There are quite a lot of things I enjoyed as a kid and this includes the Cloud 9 chocolate bars. These chocolates are simple nougats topped in caramel and wrapped in chocolate coating. What I liked with …
Pop-Secret Movie Theater Butter Popcorn
It’s no secret that microwavable popcorn is just not as good as the popcorn that’s served at theaters. It doesn’t matter whether or not a microwavable popcorn claims to offer the same flavor as theater popcorn because it simply doesn’t. I don’t think it does, anyway. This popcorn from …
Pepsi-Cola throwback
Pepsi has now come out with it’s throwback, trying to get sales by going back to using real sugar instead of the now used corn syrup. The product tastes very good but is not as sweet as the regular Pepsi. I have really looked forward to this coming out, …
Trails End Popcorn
Trails End popcorn is something my son’s boy scout troop sells every fall. It is how they make most of their money for summer camp and other scout functions during the year. It is very good popcorn. My favorite is the chocolate caramel crunch. The only thing I don’t …
Schlotzsky’s Angus Roast Beef & Cheese sandwich
Many years ago, I fell in love with Schlotzsky’s Roast Beef and cheese sandwiches. I used to love them not only for the wonderful tasty sourdough bread, but because their “special sauce” was so tangy. At any rate, I decided to order another of these. …
Laica chocolate candy Cappuccino
I am not a big fan of chocolate with coffee taste because chocolate has rather strong taste and coffee too so together they don’t go quite well, they kind a clash, although cappuccino doesn’t taste as much like coffee as coffee itself the mixture of it with chocolate is …
Our Family Chili
I decided to make chili dogs last night and, in the interest of not spending too much (since I didn’t get paid until today), I ended up buying a bargain brand can of chili; Our Family.
When I purchased this, I remembered buying it before. But, I couldn’t remember much …
Nescafe Strong And Rich Coffee
Nescafe which is a subsidy of Nestle has recently came up with several varieties from using brown sugar, sweet and mild, to the strong and rich variety. The latter is one of the variations that I really need. With my busy schedule and oftentimes extended hours at night, I needed …
Thorntons Winter Crumble chocolate bar
The Winter Crumble chocolate bar is one of several limited edition bars produced by the British chocolate makers Thorntons for the winter holiday season this year (ie 2009-2010).
It is described on the wrapper as having a ‘winter fruit mousse centre’, and the fruits included are blackcurrants and blackberries. These …
Jewel Brand Ginger Ale
Sometimes generic or store-brand products are just as good, if not better, than the big name brands. This is the case with Jewel brand Ginger Ale, which is sold at all Jewel-Osco grocery stores in both two-liter bottles and 12-packs. Just yesterday, I compared the price os …
The Fry Daddy Elite 4 Cup Deep Fryer
If there were no such thing as chicken nuggets, a good percentage of Americans younger than, say, 25 years old would starve. Alright, I realize that it’s a stretch, but I do know that my six year-old daughter would probably eat far less and much less often than …
Jelly Belly Very Cherry Pudding Snacks
I’ve recently become intrigued by the offerings in the pudding aisle. In addition to the traditional chocolate, vanilla, tapioca, and butterscotch, I now see daring new fruit-flavored puddings like Very Cherry in packages of four cups. They’re very brightly colored, and, while I wasn’t expecting to be blown away, …
Milford tea Blackberry - Raspberry
I have tried Milford tea just few times in my life; I rarely buy it because there are many less expensive teas. I always liked it but I try to buy cleverly so I don’t like spending more money then necessary. Milford tea costs 3 Euro and you get …
Amul lite milk
The Amul is a very good and very big company which produces many kinds of milk products which are very fresh and tasty and not only that, it also contains the materials of very good quality. I have also written about the Amul Company in my earlier reviews. …
Klean Kanteen water bottle
Get rid of your Nalgene water bottle and go buy yourself a Klean Kanteen. These lightweight steel bottles hold any liquid you want to drink from spring water to tomato soup.
Unlike a Nalgene bottle, there are no lingering tastes or scents of what you carried in the Klean Kanteen …
Annie Chun’s Miso Soup
Annie Chun’s Miso Soup is something that is easy for me to fix and have for lunch, although admittedly, the soup does not look all that fabulous. Still, what really matters is how the soup tastes and not so much how it looks. While the soup looks rather bland, …
Metromint - Cherrymint Water
Metromint - Cherrymint Water is quite a tasty variety of flavored water that I reach for once, sometimes twice, a week because it is a drink that I find to be pleasant in taste and refreshing in quality. The fact that this is a water-based drink already makes it …
Raley’s Fresh Deli Chicken Strips
One of the items I recently tried was Raley’s Fresh Deli Chicken Strips. I love chicken, but hate cooking it. I don’t really have working appliances right now that let me prepare it myself anyway, so I thought I’d give these chicken strips a try. One …
Stouffer’s Grilled Chicken Italian Panini
Stouffer’s Grilled Chicken Italian Panini is something that is quite unique as I never do see anything real similar to it in the frozen food sections of the grocery stores that I frequent. It is actually quite a delicious sandwich too, and I hope that Stouffer’s does not discontinue …
Arby’s Large Roast Beef
Arby’s has worked on changing their image for a number of years now, offering more upscale items such as their market-fresh sandwiches and other items. What it all comes down to in my mind though is the roast beef. They’ve always been the place to go for the best …
Roasted Tomato & Olive Oil Triscuits
I am a fan of crackers generally, and since I was a kid, I have loved Triscuits. For health reasons, I usually try to buy whole grain crackers, so that if I am snacking, I am at least not eating high-fat junk food. I try to mix it up …
Pizza Hut’s Tuscani Tuesdays promotion
For quite a while now, Pizza Hut has made available a terrific deal which they call Tuscani Tuesdays. I’ve taken advantage of this deal a few times now, including the day on which I’m writing this review.
On Tuscani Tuesdays, customers can purchase two of their pastas for $10. …
Famous Amos Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’d heard about Famous Amos cookies off and on as a teenager, but I was an adult before I’d had any. That was when some individual packages were offered in a company snack box. I couldn’t resist and had to try them. After that, I regularly …
Oscar Mayer Lunchables - Mini Burgers
I’ve heard about the popular Oscar Mayer Lunchables for many years, but they came along long after I was a kid so it really wasn’t until recently that I gave them a try. They were on sale and I was looking for more quick and easy meals.
This particular …
Great Value: BBQ Flavored Potato Chips
Great Value: BBQ Flavored Potato Chips are not that great. They certainly are not as flavorful or enjoyable as the ripple cut potato chips. By that, I mean the salt flavor offered by the ripple cut potato chips is stronger than the barbecue flavor offered by these BBQ potato …
Freeflo Fluoridated and Iodized Salt
As of recently, my family has bought only “Freeflo Fluoridated and Iodized Salt” not just because it is cheap and is manufactured locally, but we have also bought it because we think that it is a little better than some of the other cheaper brands of salt.
There are …
Tombstone Extra Cheese Frozen Pizza
I love pizza and have tried almost every kind of frozen pizza known. My preference is pizza from the restaurants such as Pizza Hut and Papa Johns but frozen pizza is my next choice. I have to say that I have had better experiences with Tombstones frozen pizzas than …
