Planters Trail Mix Spicy Nuts & Cajun Sticks
Although this trail mix has the word “spicy” in its name, I really don’t find this trail mix to be overly spicy. There’s a definite degree of hotness and sharpness to the trail mix, but it’s not enough to really set my mouth on fire or anything. It’s kind …
Del Monte Sweet Blend Tomato Ketchup
Del Monte is my favorite brand to use whether it’s for making spaghetti, being used for hotdogs, french fries, meatballs, eggs, or spam. It has a sweet blend taste with doesn’t make it all sour and bitter like fresh tomatoes do, and it does make perfect sauce for a …

Blue Bunny BIG Fudge Bars
Blue Bunny BIG Fudge Bars offer quite a big fudge flavor! They definitely placed emphasis on the right word - BIG is indeed right! Yikes, I really cannot recall having Popsicles this size from any other brand other than the Blue Bunny brand! Both on the inside and out, …
Ferrero Rocher Chocolates
The sight of Ferrero Rocher - with its trademark gold foil wrapping - never fails to make my mouth water. I’ve loved this chocolate ever since I first tasted it in elementary school. I didn’t even know what it was called then. I just referred to it as the …

Hunt’s Thick and Rich Original Premium Pasta Sauce
This is definitely a better pasta sauce then many I have tried. I especially like it better than the Ragu pasta sauce.
I find the Ragu sauce to be very watery and it tastes just like mushed up tomatoes, with little in the way of spice and flavor, while the …
Crystal Light Energy - On the Go
Crystal Light is one of the best things to have happened to the beverage market in the last couple of decades. I’ve yet to be disappointed in any of their products.
The latest is their Crystal Light Energy On the Go packages. This is the absolute most convenient …
Nestea Iced Tea 50% Less Sugar
When I started dieting, I thought juice or iced tea are not really fattening. The idea that its a beverage and it does not contain carbohydrates or fats is the foremost thinking I had. I was naive and ignorant that the reason why carbohydrates is fattening is because the end …
President Rondele Garlic & Herbs Spreadable Cheese
I was looking for a soft spreadable cheese to use in some kind of dip, and I happened upon this cheese at Trader Joe’s. Normally I’m not really a fan of these soft spreadable cheeses because they remind me too much of cream cheese which I don’t like, but …
Goya Cookies & Cream
I have a sweet tooth. This has plagued me from childhood. Now, in my late thirties, I have to choose what I eat very well since my blood sugar has sometimes reached borderline level. Many years ago, I only indulged in imported brands. Now I’ve rediscovered the chocolate bar …
Ro-Tel Hot Diced Tomatoes with Habaneros
My favorite diced tomatoes are Ro-Tel’s Hot Diced Tomatoes with Habaneras for several different reasons. One particular reason I like this brand of diced tomatoes is that the tomatoes are particularly spiced just right while adding that extra kick of pepper.
After you take a few bites of …
Emerald Cocoa Roast Almonds (Dark Chocolate Flavor)
For anyone wanting to get more nuts in their diet, this is the perfect product, even if you don’t like the taste of nuts. Almonds are very healthy and a great way to get protein if you don’t eat meat. The light dusting of cocoa powder makes them an …
Wrigley’s Airways chewing gum
I like chewing gum but not all of them and Wrigly’s Airways is one of the chewing gum that I don’t like.

Strawberry Chex
I just tried this cereal not too long ago because the shoppers where I live had a sale on cereal. It’s pretty good. The strawberry taste is very strong. It’s definately different from the other kinds of chex. I love strawberries and almost anything flavored with strawberry but I …
Goya Almonds in Milk Chocolate
I bought a Goya Almonds in Milk Chocolate since I am a Chocolate lover; I tried the Goya Almonds in Milk Chocolate. It is not just like the other who has a whole almond instead Goya Almonds in Milk Chocolate has almond but the almond were turned into many …
Red Lentils in general
I was a vegetarian for a good few years before I realised how valuable red lentils could be to me. Lentils somehow never sounded very nice and anyway I did not want to be a lentil-eating hippie like Neil from The Young Ones. The other thing that …
McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger
Because I’m a cheapskate who sometimes resorts to counting change and heading to the Golden Arches for the $1.00 value menu, I have become a seasoned eater of the double cheeseburger at McDonald’s. In the last year, I have probably had about 80 of them, usually two at …
YanYan
I first came to know about YanYan (a Japanese snack of bread sticks dipped in flavored frosting) while vacationing at Epcot in Disney World Florida. Epcot as some may know, is a park connected with Disney World that shows visitors different cultures around the world. One of those cultures …
Patrick Cudahy Breakfast Sausage Links
Product Description: Bag of 24 pre-cooked frozen sausage links. Available at one of our local grocery stores (I’m guessing it is only available at select stores) for about $3.50.

Andes Cherry Jubilee Thins
Andes Mints are something that I was likely to find during the holidays when I was a child. Every year it seemed like my parents bought a box and kept them in the cupboards for those times when company came over. If they didn’t buy a box, the odds …
Nugatti
I was looking for a different kind of snack, and Nugatti Twist Hazlenut/Milk Spread in a 200gram plastic jar caught my eye. I had never seen anything like it, and as I love hazelnuts I thought I would give it a try.
This product came in a clear jar with …
Corralejo Reposado Tequila
I love good tequila, and reposado is my favorite. When I saw this fun bottle, I had to give it a try, and I think it’s definitely one of the best I’ve ever had.
For anyone who doesn’t know, a reposado tequila is sort of the middle grounds in terms …
Nescafe 3 in 1 Coffee
I cannot live without coffee. I am a coffee drinker and as far as I know, I have tried already different brands of coffee especially if new to my eyes and to my taste. Eversince I started working, drinking coffee becomes my habit and a part of my working …
Jell-o Pudding - Tapioca
Jell-o Pudding - Tapioca is quite good, although I am not as crazy about the tapioca variety as I am about the vanilla-chocolate swirl variety. The tapioca variety is certainly still good too, and the flavor is quite authentic as well as strong! The texture is pretty creamy and …
Wai Loong’s Chicken Wantons
I don’t usually buy wantons because I make my own at home which come out quite nicely if I do say myself. One day I decided to try Wai Loong’s Chicken Wantons from their extensive menu of differently filled wantons, because I was not going to be home for …
Ferrero Nutella
Being someone who loves sweets I had heard a lot about Ferrero Nutella but it took me a long time before I actually purchased a bottle of this heavenly mixture. I always used to see it being used on cooking shows and I even ate snacks with chocolate hazelnut …

Gerber Graduates
My daughter loves Gerber Graduates. She no longer is a baby, even though she is a little older now, she still, every now and then gets hankering for the peach cobbler. I must admit, in trying it myself, I have enjoyed it. It tastes just like …
Boom Energy Drink
Just a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that a new energy drink named “Boom” seemed to become popular in my country Jamaica. I didn’t know who the makers or manufacturers were, and I never saw it advertising either, so it appeared to have appeared out of nowhere to …
Grande Patisserie Danish Cheese Croissant
I had the opportunity to try a Grande Patisserie Danish Cheese Croissant, out a twenty four variety pack, one morning with a cup of coffee, Usually I don’t have such combos, but it was one of the only things to have since I was at a women’s conference breakfast, …
Tesco Value Tortilla Chips
These plain tortilla chips from Tesco are from their extremely low-priced ‘Value’ range and you can buy a generous 100g bag for a mere 25 pence. Tesco’s Value range does have some surprisingly good items in it and I think these chips are fantastic for the price. …
Glaceu’s Vitamin Water
Lately I have gotten pretty addicted to Glaceau’s vitamin water. There are a variety of different flavors of water that all have different mixes of vitamins in them. The waters themselves taste like Kool-Aid; they’re sweet and have a light flavor to them without being overpowering.
I really feel like …
Dujardin Corn Mix
I decided to try Dujardin Corn Mix when I couldn’t find any frozen peas at the supermarket. Dujardin Corn Mix is also a frozen product but has a mixture of peas, carrots, corn kernels and string beans in there. The price seemed to worth it but the product, not …
Macaroni Grill : Creamy Basil Chicken Pasta
Macaroni Grill now has a line of “Restaurant Favorites” boxed dinners. I decided to try the Creamy Basil Chicken Parmesan Pasta version. I can always find these at Walmart for $3.50, but I saw them at the local grocer’s for $7, so I’m not sure why there’s such a …
Vitasoy Melon-Flavoured Soy Drink
I wan on my way to work, but really needed a small snack. I have been rather dehydrated these days. So I grabbed a bun and searched for a drink in the refrigerator of 7-Eleven store.
I thought that I lacked calcium, so I took a soy drink. The vitasoy …
Silk (Soy Milk)
I’m not a vegan, so when I first heard about Silk Soy Milk I didn’t put too much thought into trying it. All I knew was that the commercials showing people drinking it like it was the most delicious thing in the world were pretty tempting. To be honest, …
Hartley’s Raspberry Jelly
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 …
Skippy Peanut Butter
When it comes to peanut butter, I am very particular about what I choose. I have eaten Skippy brand peanut butter since I can remember. I guess I just took my mother’s lead with it and very rarely tried other brands of Peanut Butter simply because I was used …
Almond Breeze milk substitute (cold case)

Homemade Hidden Valley Ranch
You aren’t going to believe it, but I think I’m the only person on the face of the planet that had never tried this stuff. A co-worker of mine was recently talking about how she has to water it down because it’s too thick for her. I immediately thought, …
Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Chocolate
Although Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Chocolate is certainly an enjoyable and refreshing treat, it is not quite as rich and creamy as the premium homemade chocolate ice cream, also made by Blue Bunny. This original ice cream does not have quite as strong and delicious of a chocolate …
Altoids Dark Chocolate Dipped Mints
Altoids Dark Chocolate Dipped Mints put a tantalizing taste in your mouth. They taste very similar to Andies Chocolate Mints, which I love. I love the New Altoids Darke Chocolate Dipped Mints. The box fits perfectly in your purse or pocket even.
…
Blueraspberry Flavored Twizzlers
After trying the Blue Raspberry flavored Twizzlers, I am not really sure what I feel about the product, and though I really don’t have a problem with them, I wouldn’t recommend it only because it has that “iffy” quality to it. Where I don’t feel that it something worth …
