Flamin’ Hot Funyuns 6 1/2 oz bag
I love the Flamin Hot brand by Lays. The Flamin Hot Funyuns are so very delicious! I have always loved Funyuns as a child and now as an adult. And now they have combined my favourite chips with the Flamin Hot brand and flavour. I do …
Entenmann’s Apple Puffs
I do not really care all that much for these Entenmann’s Apple Puffs. The reason I do not care for them too much is because they are pretty bland. The apple flavor is barely reminiscent of what real apples taste like. I do not know if they simply did …
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 …
Trader Joe’s Low Sodium Minestrone Soup
Minestrone soup can either be wonderful or awful; rarely have I run into minestrone soup that didn’t fit into one of these categories. Usually, I find minestrone is wonderful and I’m always up for trying new varieties to see what kinds of things people do with it.
When I bought …
Marie Callender’s Three Cheese Stuffed Rigatoni & Chicken
Recently, I had a similar pasta meal that I just loved to pieces so when I saw Marie Callender’s Three Cheese Stuffed Rigatoni & Chicken, I decided to give it a try as well and see if it was as good, or at least close.
This product consists of ricotta, …
Inglehoffer Original Stone Ground Mustard
For those who don’t know what stone ground mustard is, it’s a kind of mustard that is made with whole or crushed mustard seeds and mixed with vinegar and spices. The end result is a very strong, spicy, and sometimes very hot mustard. It tends to have a dark, …
Hamburger Helper Cheeseburger Macaroni
Honestly, you really don’t need the hamburger helper to make this kind of food. All you really need is to buy some macaroni from the store and the beef. The only thing missing is the seasoning, so that’s how they get you to buy the hamburger helpful. But this …
Vita Shake for Breakfast
Vita Shake has been a lifesaver for me when it comes to fixing a healthy and quick breakfast in a hurry. It is so simple to make. You just put 12 ounces of water or soy milk in a blender. Then you open up the package of Vita Shake …
Jack-N-the-Box Sourdough Cheeseburger
Recently I had the chance to try the sour dough cheeseburger from the Jack-n-the-Box chain of fast food restaurants. I’ve had a similar burger from Rally’s and Hardees in the past so I thought it sounded like something familiar and yet a little different. The burger sits in between …
Solevita Tea and fruit Exotic
From all cheaper discounts I like Lidl the most. there you can find a lot of cheap things and most of them are really good, also the prices aren’t as high as in other shops, they aren’t much lower either but you can actually see the difference.
I like to …

Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Cherry Cheesecake
Although this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Cherry Cheesecake is not nearly as good as a cheesecake that is baked fresh or purchased already made from the grocery store, for the price that this item is sold at Super Wal*Mart, it is actually a decent deal. The cherry cheesecake, …
Season’s Choice Sweet Potato Fries
Season’s Choice Sweet Potato Fries are about as good as the McCain Sweet Potato Fries, although I do think that the McCain brand of sweet potato fries does have a little more flavor and overall sweetness to them than these generic brand sweet potato fries sold at ALDI Food …
Primo Supremo Pizza From Round Table Pizza
So I finally tried the Primo Supremo Pizza the other day. And let me tell you it is great! I really loved the taste of the tomatoes. The twisted crust with cheese and pepperoni was to die for. The onions they put on the Primo Supremo Pizza are just …
Fast Fixin Beef Steak Patties
Having impressed with some other products of Fast Fixin I bought their beef patties. For five dollars the number of patties that are coming in a single packet is very economic. There were a dozen of them inside. But this value for money is perhaps only thing I liked …
3 Musketeers 100 calorie bars
Although I usually try eat healthy, I find nothing wrong with the occasional chocolate bar as long this sort of thing is consumed in moderation. I find chocolate to be one of life’s simple little pleasures and it is certainly not a pleasure that I intend to give up …

A square pizza with a white cream sauce, little sliced portabella mushrooms, …
Chick Fil-A Sweet Ice tea
There are very few places here in Colorado to find sweet ice tea. If you are like me from the South where everyone serves sweet ice tea you know what a shock it is to move somewhere that it is an oddity. Chic Fil-A has sweet ice tea just …
Special K Strawberry Protein Shake
Some protein shakes have left me feeling not only hungry after consuming them, but with a nasty taste in my mouth. I was very glad, and a little relieved, that the Special K Strawberry flavored protein shake did neither of those things. It has become the perfect breakfast shake …
Sam’s Choice Belgian Dark Chocolate
Sam’s Choice Belgian Dark Chocolate, sold at WalMart, comes neatly packaged in a silvery colored box, which makes it look finer than just a regular chocolate bar. It is made with 70% of cocoa, according to the box. The bar itself is rather thin, divided into large (approximately 1 …
Nandini ghee
Nandini ghee is the new product, which my aunty brought to my home recently. Actually I had seen this ghee many a times in the departmental stores but it is for the first time that I am using it. After using this ghee I must say that …
Weight Watchers Chicken and Mushroom Alfredo Fresh Meal

Totino’s Crisp Crust Cheese Pizza
When it comes to a one-person personal pizza, my favorite brand of choice is Totino’s crisp crust cheese pizza. There’s just enough pizza for one person, and I love how quick they are to cook.
The thing I like about the Totino’s crisp crust cheese pizza is the box they …

So there we were …
Orbit Mist
I recently tried the new gum from Orbit called Mist. I love chewing gum. Especially when I am bored. So I have tried almost every gum on the market. I must say that this gum is at the top of …
Baumann’s Hot & Spicy Barbecue Sauce
If I could only use one word to describe this barbecue sauce, that word would have to be, “WOW!!” And, I really don’t think that’s a strong enough superlative for this BBQ sauce.
I had gone shopping with my mother who just loves Save-a-Lot. I was looking on …
McCain Beer Battered Fries
Product Description: Frozen French fries covered in a beer batter. Available at most grocery stores. I paid roughly $3 for a bag.

Oscar Mayer Ham & Turkey Sub Kit

Winking Owl Vineyards Shiraz
Winking Owl Vineyard’s Shiraz wine is sold by Aldi’s supermarkets. It retails for 2.99 a bottle. I was curious to try this because you never know if a bottle of wine that retails for 2.99 will be any good.
I have had some low cost wines that werent.
I can attest …
Hostess Chocolate Cream Twinkies
I don’t know about you, but this is one of my least favorite times of the year. Oh, sure, it’s getting colder, and in my part of the world (Southeast Texas) it isn’t exactly Fall picturesque to be sure, but those aren’t the reasons I’m thinking of. Right now …
Nestle Pure Life bottled water
While I do consume a lot of bottled water throughout the whole year, I tend to have a bottle constantly with me during the summer months because it does get quite hot and humid here. Since I drink so much water, I tend to just buy whatever is on …

Like many people, I’m an ice cream fan and love to indulge every once and a while. I spotted bell blue’s coconut fruit bars, when cruising the frozen treat selection of my neighborhood grocers. It was priced at $2.99 per box or 2 for $5. I love coconut, whether …
Nestea ice tea Orange 500ml
I’ve always like Nestea ice teas because they always had really nice taste, until not that long ago my favourite taste was peach one and I never liked lemon ones because they were too bitter for my taste. I really like ice-teas specially during the summer because they are …
Haagan Dazs Vanilla honey bee ice cream
You’ve probably heard of Haagan Dazs ice cream and probably have tried it before. If not, then well, you’re missing out. Haagan Dazs is a great brand of ice cream. Not only do they have unique, gourmet flavors but they also have regular flavors. No matter what flavor you …

Aunt Jemima Eggs and Sausage Entrée
Aunt Jemima Eggs and Sausage Entrée is not a frozen breakfast meal that I am likely to purchase again. I did not enjoy either the sausage or the eggs that much. The sausage links really seemed to be devoid of flavor and I also do not feel that they …
Liptons Side Kicks Potatoes with Roasted Chicken Gravy
Being British I have always loved any food product associated with the Lipton name and their Side Kicks Potatoes with Roasted Chicken Gravy is no exception. When this pouch of freeze dried scallop potatoes with accompanying pouch of gravy went on sale for only $1.39CDN, I just couldn’t resist …

Selecta Gold Series Ice Cream: Vanilla Almond
