Breyers Peanut Butter Tracks Overload!
Breyers Peanut Butter Tracks Overload! is an ice cream that I think will appeal to a majority of people that can’t get enough of peanut butter. There’s quite a lot of peanut butter flavor to this ice cream and it’s delightfully delicious, I think. First of all, the ice …

Chicago Town Edge to Edge New Orleans Cheese Pizza
I would say that Pizza is 1 of my most favourite meals although it is normally Meat Pizza that I have, I do like the odd Cheese Pizza. Just a nice change and although I used to think it was a bit plain tasting I think it’s ok.
This …
Great Value Brand-Altern No Calorie Sweetener

Diet Sunkist is absolutely my favorite diet soft drink ever! It is amazingly similar in taste to the original Sunkist, but it has no calories! I highly recommend Diet Sunkist to anyone who is looking for a good tasting soft drink but does not necessarily want all of the calories …
Hershey’s - Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels
Hershey’s - Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels are mildly tasty, although really, they are no better than the Flipz Milk Chocolated Covered Pretzels or the Nabisco brand, but they also are no worse. Just like the other brands, these pretzels are covered in a mildly present milk chocolate layer that …
Hot Pockets Chicken Quesadilla
Hot Pockets Chicken Quesadilla is unfortunately a bad example of a Mexican classic. I felt like a good Mexican chicken dish and thought the hand held pocket size sandwich would be good. Boy was I wrong! The hot pocket comes with a crispy tool that you put the …
Wylwood canned potato slices
I recently purchased a can of Wylwood potato slices when I did our monthly shopping trip for canned vegetables. This was the first time I have bought this brand and wasn’t really sure what to expect. But, it turned out to be worth the money.
The potatoes both came in …
Mission’s Yellow Cornflower Tortillas
Every week while I’m grocery shopping I try and search for products that are healthy, but that won’t taste like cardboard or leave me hungry after the meal. I scan the grocery shelves for the perfect product that I can be satisfied with and bring home as part of …
Baked Chocolate Mousse
I love this dessert, Baked Chocolate Mousse very much. In fact, I do know that it’s fattening but I just can’t help it at most times.
Whenever you go to any cake shop and you could find Baked Chocolate Mousse, there is a high chance that the taste …
Dormen’s Spicy Peanuts
I did not like these spicy peanuts at all. It is not that the quality of them is bad but more the fact that I was expecting something else. I recently had some spicy jumbo peanuts from KP which were gorgeous —“ just massive peanuts covered in …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice Drink
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice Drink is a new product by Coca Cola. It comes in 2 sizes, 1 liter and 330ml. I usually go for Pepsi’s Tropicana juice drink before as it’s a good replacement for carbonated sodas and love the almost natural orange taste, it’s too sweet …

V8 V-Fusion Drinks
While I am a fan of mixed vegetable drinks, my mother and sister beat me with their zeal for this particular beverage. I am more a lover of fruit drinks myself. Maybe it is the fact that I have a sweet tooth, or maybe I just don’t enjoy the …

Walmart Deli Macaroni Salad
I like macaroni salad once in a while, but I don’t like making it (I would think I’m not alone in this??). Thankfully, Walmart Deli carries a very decent version of this salad, always fresh and not expensive. I recently bought a large, 4 lb plastic container of it, …

Chocolate Covered Nutter Butter Cookies

Lyle’s golden syrup
I’ve been using Lyle’s golden syrup for quite a while now and I am finding this product very good especially when I am preparing pancakes at home. I usually spread it generously on top of my pancake. Before I use golden syrup I normally just had a …
Oishi Choco Coated Corn Plunged Fortified with Iron
This is the first sweet snack I got to taste from Oishi. I was looking for cereal for our breakfast and then I found it. It looks different because they make a snack out of cereal and it uses chocolate as the coating. It also claims to contain Iron …
Dreyer’s Sherbet Orange Cream
I love the Dreyer’s brand of ice cream. It tends to be rich and creamy the way I like it. Recently, I was in the mood for sherbet. I love orange sherbet, but only have it as a treat from time to time. I saw …

Twinings Camomile Green Tea

One of the things we made was a bag of Birdseye Steam Fresh Vegetables; mostly because we are getting bad about not eating enough vegetables at dinner …
Dr. Pepper
Not so much a food as a beverage, but Dr. Pepper should sound familiar to anyone that knows anything about soft drinks. It’s got a really potent flavor: a mix of sweet, sour, and even a miniscule dose of bitter. This taste is really unmatched in the realm of …
KETTLE KORN
While doing the standard grocery shopping last week, my husband popped what looked like regular microwavable pop corn into our cart. When we decided to have pop corn, later, we were NOT happy! What we had purchased was not regular popcorn that we normally buy, that is made by …
Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Honey Bun
I do not feel that there is anything particularly special about Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Honey Bun compared with the other honey buns made by other companies that can be found in the grocery store, but I nonetheless enjoyed what was likely my one and only purchase of a Mrs. …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice Drink

Filipino Adobo
Rice is the staple food in the Philippines. And what goes perfectly with rice? I’d say adobo. It’s a native Filipino dish which is basically just meat (chicken or pork) cooked to simmer in a mixture of soy sauce and vinegar as well as some seasoning. Preparing it is …
Mrs. Freshley’s Blueberry Cake Donuts
I was disappointed with Mrs. Freshley’s Blueberry Cake Donuts. I had hoped that the blueberry donut would be as soft and flavorful as the blueberry muffins made by Mrs. Freshley’s, but what I found is a donut that really does not have a whole lot of blueberry flavor to …

Aero Instant Bubbly Hot Chocolate Drink
I bought this drink out of curiosity, really. The proclamation of bubbles melting on my tongue enticed me to give Nestle’s latest offering in the heated beverages department a whirl. When boiling water is added, it is true, an impressive crop of bubbles forms, much like when you froth …
Campbell’s Chunky Manhattan Clam Chowder Soup
Hey gentle reader folk, guess what time it is?
It’s blatantly fake lunch pail time again!

Nescafe Taster’s Choice Instant Coffee
I have an addiction to coffee, actually caffeine and coffee fits the bill while warming me up on a chilly morning. I also have an addiction to trying new things to see if I can improve on what I’m using. I recently saw an opportunity to get free samples …
Wai Loong’s Chicken Wantons
