Brie en Brioche with Mushrooms
I have always loved Brie cheese and when I found a pastry product by Damafro called Brie en Brioche with Mushrooms I decided to buy it on sale for $1.99CDN. I have to say this 225gram box was attractively packaged showing half a round pastry with a rich layer …
Great Value Creamy Peanut Butter
A very good value when it comes to purchasing food is Great Value Creamy Peanut Butter. I’ve had several different brands of peanut butter in the past. In my opinion there hasn’t been to much difference in terms of taste between the major brand labels. Therefore, I …
Borden Doubt Twist Cheese Snacks
My wife and I are both trying to eat healthier, both to watch our own weight and to set a good example for our daughter. Part of this has been trying to find healthier snacks to eat when we are hungry.
We recently purchased a bag of Borden Double Twist …
Bird’s Eye Voila: Beef Lo Mein
Bird’s Eye Voila beef lo mein is another quick dinner I wanted to give a try because whenever I’m in the mall, my first thought is: Where is the Chinese food? I always order the chicken, rice, and vegetables; I’ve never given beef lo mein a try until I …
Doritos Spicy Sweet Chili Chips
I am a lover of chips, all kinds of chips and especially these Doritos Spicy Sweet Chili chips. I purchased a bag of them from my local grocers when they were on sale at 2 for $6. Normally they run $4.99 each so the reduced price was a plus. …
Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Seasoned Crinkles
Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Seasoned Crinkles are delicious frozen french fries that I just never grow tired of. They are so crispy and tasty that they are superior to most of the fries sold in restaurants and fast foods, in my opinion. And the seasoning on these fries! Wow! Who …
Knorr Pasta Sides Alfredo Broccoli
This Pasta Side proved to be a little disappointing because Knorr was pretty chintzy on the broccoli! The picture on the package is a pretty accurate depiction of just how small the pieces of broccoli actually are and because the broccoli is so small, it’s pretty easy for it …
Nescafe Collection Suraya Aromatic Instant Coffee
Suraya Aromatic Instant Coffee from the Nescafe —˜Collection’ range is a good quality coffee and it is perfect for my personal taste. Although I prefer a smooth coffee to a harsh or bitter kind, I do like my coffee to have some strength in it or it is …
Corazonas Heart Healthy Baja Bean Dip
Corazonas Heart Healthy Baja Bean Dip isn’t bad at all. I still prefer the original, basic tortilla chip variety, but Baja Bean is good as well. What amazing me about the Corazonas products is that you really do taste what the flavor of the product is supposed …
Envidia Green Tea Apple Flavor
I am starting to be a health freak. I monitor the nutritional facts of the foods I take in. Envidia Green Tea caught my attention by their commercial with the catchy line “One Two Zero”. One for having EGCG (Epigallocathecin Gallate), two for two times power of L-Carnitine and …
Defender Health Drink Provides Many Benefits
I try to be vigilant about drinking throughout the day. I noticed that I was losing energy and catching more colds. I think it had a lot to do with the stress level of meeting some big project deadlines at work. A co-worker had a bottle of Defender on …
Fairtime Salt Water Taffy Festive Mix
I bought a bag of this old fashioned treat for the winter holidays and now I wish I had purchased another one, as it tastes really great! I haven’t had salt water taffy in a long time - years - as no one around here ever seems to sell …
Florida’s Natural Premium Home-Squeezed Orange Juice
There’s quite a lot to like about Florida’s Natural Premium Home-Squeezed Orange Juice. I’ll start with the most obvious plus: this orange juice is just that: orange juice. It’s not part juice, part water, or mainly water, like some of the stuff that’s sold in the supermarkets. This is …
Ramnaths low fat cottage cheese
Last week I went to the food court near my house. There I found the new item, which is the Ramnaths low fat cottage cheese. I love to prepare many recipes using the cottage cheese. But due to over weight I am not allowed to eat …
Magnolia Low Fat Milk
I grew up chugging milk by the gallons. My family bought into the hype that milk makes you grow taller, and me and my siblings drank them to our adulthood. However, in my teenage years, I began to be more conscious of my weight and stopped drinking milk. When …
Glowing Charcoal Coffee
Two months ago, my friend told me that there was the most famous and delicious coffee in Malioboro street, Yogyakarta, Java Island, Indonesia. She said that the name of that coffee was charcoal coffee. It was the first time I heard that curious kind of coffee. I interested to …
Nestle Coffeemate
I usually have a cup of coffee first thing in the morning and sometimes late at night while working on projects for school and work. I happen to think that it is the creamer that makes the coffee taste good or bad.
I decided to try Coffee mate creamer …
Dannon Blueberry Activia Yogurt
I have seen the commercials for Blueberry Activia Yogurt for some time now. And I always wondered whether or not they really meant what they said about it being good for digestive health. I was skeptical about the product I guess you could say. But when I started trying …
Nestle Chuckie Choco Drink
This is the choco drink that my daughter love the most. She hardly drink milk actually that is why I am so worried in her. But I am so happy that she loves to drink this Chuckei drink from nestle. It’s a combination of milk and choco that makes …
Stars and stripes sodas
I consider myself to be somewhat of a soda aficionado (or as close as one can be without incurring a severe case of type 3 diabetes) and I was somewhat skeptical when I first tried the Stars and Stripes line of sodas. Usually cost effective sugar water meant …
3 Roses dust Tea
We use the 3 roses dust tea because of many reasons. Normally I never used to drink the tea but since I have tasted the 3 roses dust tea I have started liking it. The main reason why we use this tea is because of its unique …
Sparkling Ice Black Raspberry Sparkling Water
In the last couple of months I have been trying to decrease my consumption of soda and increase my consumption of water. Unfortunately, however, I do not like the taste of plain water very much so my attempts have not been as successful as I had hoped. …
Talenti Sicilian Pistachio Gelato Pint
Recently I was introduced to my first experience with gelato at a work party. As a treat my boss purchased lunch, plus the gelato from Publix. I was hesitant at first because I had never had gelato and didn’t even know if it was like ice cream. However, I …
Dairy milk eclairs crunch chocolates
Actually I am a chocolate lover. Along with my children even I love to eat a lot of chocolates sitting at home. I try all kind of chocolates, which I find new or interesting in the market. Once I bought the Dairy milk ‘clairs crunch chocolates …

L’oven Fresh Shortbread Cookie Party Tray
The L’oven Fresh Shortbread Cookie Party Tray contains two different kinds of Christmas cookies in a party tray that weighs twenty ounces and sells for four dollars and fifty-nine cents. Quite a few cookies come in the Christmas party tray and although I didn’t actually count them for I …
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 …
Apple Pumpkin Pie
Apple Pumpkin Pie is a fairly delightful dessert that I am sometimes able to purchase at Tom Thumb around September, October and November. The reason that I say it is a fairly delightful dessert is because it does have a slight flaw to it: the pie comes across as …
Pacific Chai - Spiced tea
I love Chai teas a friend got me hooked several years ago. A Chai Creme is one of the few things I use as a reward for myself every so often. I prefer them from Starbucks, but I have found Kroger’s carries a brand that is pretty …
Progresso Light Santa Fe Style Chicken Soup
Guess what time it is again?
(Don’t break out in a sweat—¦I’m being rhetorical of course. Trust me, you’re good!)
It’s time to break out the old mythical lunch pail and thermos again to sample yet another lunchtime soup. (Can you tell I’m on a diet and working out again yet?) …
Lipton Iced Tea
I bought one can of Lipton Iced Tea from the US. Although I love juice especially the freshly squeezed ones, I still crave for iced tea sometimes. During days when the sun is extremely hot, it is one of the best treat to drink one glass of iced tea. I …
The White Hat Frozen Yogurt
I have always been fond of anything dairy —“ from milk to cheese to ice cream. Every dairy food that I indulge on is euphoria for me. It gives me that blissful experience of munching on something that’s creamy, luscious and flavorful. However, this delightful pleasure had to …
Blue Bunny Cookies ‘N Cream Ice Cream Sandwich
Blue Bunny Cookies ‘N Cream Ice Cream Sandwich turned out to be quite a disappointing ice cream sandwich. What made the sandwich so disappointing? Well, there seemed to be very little flavor to enjoy here. For example, neither the vanilla nor the chocolate flavors did very much for my …
Magnolia Pancake Plus
Breakfast is complete if you have pancakes for the kids. I also like having pancake for breakfast because it is a good choice instead of going for eating old-fashioned bread. I like wheat bread or oven fresh sliced white bread with cream jelly but nothing can top a freshly …
Alaska Yoghurt Drink
I love this Alaska Yoghurt Drink. They are offered in different flavors and they really taste good. It brings a unique fruity and milky taste in one tetra pack. Indeed when I first tasted this I knew that even my little ones would love this. I’ve tasted different brands …
Lipton’s Yellow Label Tea
I have just finished drinking my cup of Lipton’s Yellow Label Tea before writing this review. Please let me share my experience about this quality tea with you.
I would like to start this review by mentioning the fact that this tea has a special taste and smell that I …
Orville Redenbacher’s Mini Smart Cakes
This week I obtained a package of Orville Redenbacher’s 100 Caolorie Mini Smart Cakes to sample. These snack treats came in a colorful, high quality pouch that was sleek, but a little difficult to open. This was a sample packet, though, so it’s not necessarily how the …
Best Kebab - Takeaway in Bedford
When it comes to takeaways, sometimes the old student comes out in me. Let’s be honest, there are some that you would rarely use unless you had not been out of the town or had a few drinks at home first.
There is one in Bedford that does appeal to …
Percol Instant Hot Chocolate
I have had a craze on instant hot chocolate lately and I have tried lots of different brands, but this is by far the nicest, by the brand name Percol. Actually it is really gorgeous. I bought a sachet of Percol from Tesco for about 30 pence …
Stouffer’s Spaghetti with Meatballs
Stouffer’s Spaghetti with Meatballs is a meal that I will not be having again. The reason that I will not be having this meal again is because the meatballs are terrible! They not only have little flavor to them, but the little flavor that they have is not a …
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 …
Great Value Sugar Free Sweet Iced Tea
Since I bought Great Value Diet Green Tea, I became aware and started finding some tea that Great Value brands offer. I started to introduce my family to healthy drinks so I was on the look for those kinds. I bought another one from Great Value and this one …
All Bran Yogurt Bites
All Bran Yogurt Bites is a cereal put out by Kellog’s containing both flakes and clusters that are as the name suggests covered in yogurt. They looked interesting and since I enjoy yogurt I decided to give them a try. Well while those tiny white clusters tasted fine as long …
Nissin Cup noodles
If you want to enjoy some ready to eat food then I think Nissin Cup noodles are really something you will enjoy eating. All we need is to add a cup of water to the noodles and leave it covered for about 3-4 minutes and the noodles are ready …
M&Ms Limited Addition Coconut
One day I was on my way to Turkey Hill to get gas, and out the corner of my eye I saw a display of what appeared to be M&Ms. So I walked over to take a closer look and sure enough that’s what it was. …
Selecta Choco Almond Fudge Ice Cream
Being a true-blue chocolate lover, I was excited to try this new flavor from Selecta’s ice cream selection. I bought the 800ml pint of Choco Almond Fudge for only approximately $2.80, and with that price it’s really not that expensive for something that 2 persons can share to, maybe …
Camitz Sparkling Vodka
Amongst my close friends, we have a deal about gifts at Christmas or birthdays-we purchase a nice bottle of wine and enjoy it together if at all possible. Even when we don’t get together, it is always nice to receive a nice wine that I probably haven’t tried before. …
