Michelina’s Penne with Chicken

Premium Quality Private Selection Thin Crust Margherita Pizza

Sunflower - Chinese takeaway and delivery service

Taco Bell Soft Tacos
Sometimes when a person has sensitive teeth or even caps, a crunchy taco isn’t a smart food choice. It was during such a time that I expanded my horizons and first tried Taco Bell Soft Tacos. Since that first experience many years ago, I’ve often purchased this …
Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot 2007 Frantera

The Bakery At Walmart Lemon Sliced Loaf Cake

Ma Mon Luk’s Signature Asado Siopao
It was the Chinese New year, but my husband and I still needed to go out for business reasons. When we were cruising along Quezon Avenue, we passed by a restaurant with loud noises coming from the inside. Apparently there was a dragon dance and the place was very …
Fiddle Faddle: Butter Toffee
I often buy a few boxes of Fiddle Faddle from my local Dollar General. I get the blue boxes, the butter toffee flavor. Each box weighs six ounces and has 0 grams of trans fat. The popcorn snack comes sealed inside a foil pouch, so the treat is always …
Pepperidge Farm Milano Double Chocolate Cookies

Chester Cheetah Cheetos
Cheetos are really good. I’ve been eating them ever since I was a little girl probably around the age of three. I especially love the cheesy taste and licking the cheese off of my fingers. The only thing I would have to be careful about is to wash my …
Aunt Jemima Buttermilk Waffles
As I’ve often said, I like simplicity in my cooking. To be more specific, I want as little mess as possible and virtually no clean up. This comes from not having a working oven, a stovetop with just one unreliable working burner, and the lack of a …
Jack and Jill Pretzel Chocolate Sticks
Jack and Jill Pretzel Chocolate Stick also known as Pretzel alone is a one of kind chocolate sticks. It has no rival when it was out in the market a decade now. My mother always buy Pretzel on her way home from work and I remember checking on her …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Rice Pudding
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Rice Pudding is a flavor variety that does not appeal to me too much. There is nothing wrong with the pudding itself though - it is just as smooth and creamy as the other pudding varieties, the flavor however is not quite for me. I …
Michelina’s Four Cheese Lasagna
This frozen dinner doesn’t even look like traditional lasagna. It’s not in a square or rectangular shape and it doesn’t have meat, either. This is a lasagna dish that’s all about the cheese and noodles. The blending of four cheeses is the highlight of this frozen dinner. There’s ricotta …
Great Value Boil in a Bag White Rice
I was getting pretty tired of ruining rice. It is a food that I’ve always had a hard time cooking. It was always either too crunchy or too mushy. It’s hard to compliment a delicious meal with rice when you don’t even know how to make it properly. I …
Goji Berry

Starbucks Double Shot Energy Drinks

Little Debbie Cinnamon French Toast Sweet Rolls
Little Debbie Cinnamon French Toast Sweet Rolls are indeed sweet, but I just do not taste all that much cinnamon. I admittedly do taste a little, but apparently, the makers of these sweet rolls were very skimpy with the cinnamon. It is a real shame, too, because I think …
Pumpkin Flavored Ice Cream from Edy’s
There are many flavors of ice cream, and at first, the thought of Pumpkin flavored ice cream did not at all appeal to me. I am not a person who really likes pumpkin flavor at all, but in all honesty, the Pumpkin flavored ice cream from Edy’s was not …
McVities Mini Cheddars
McVities Mini Cheddars have always been one of my favourite snacks. They are small (about 1 inch in diameter) round biscuits that are kind of like crackers that have been infused with cheese and so they are really tasty if you like crackers and cheese anyway. They …

Crush Orange Soda

KFC Ultimate Sandwich
I tried the KFC Ultimate Burger when i was at the KFC near our office. It was around noon when i decided to just go for the fastfood since others have more people than this branch and i was in a hurry. They have this new sandwich posted and …
Skinny Cow Truffle Bar
Even though I am all for eating low fat foods, I have found that ice-cream is one treat that just does not taste good in a low-fat form. I have tried low-fat, fat-free and calorie-reduced ice-cream, as well as frozen yogurt, and they just do not taste remotely the …
Market Pantry Toasted Oats Cereal
Market Pantry Toasted Oats Cereal is a store brand cereal carried only at Target locations. The cereal is practically identical to General Mills Cheerios. If there is a different in quality, it must be insignificant as I was unable to make out anything that would differentiate this store brand …
Tyson Chicken Breast Patties
I like the chicken breast patties made by Tyson. I think the patties have a good chicken flavor. The patties are particularly good when I add some lettuce, mayonnaise and even some pickles. They are simple to prepare and I am given the option to heat up the patties …
Kinders Milk Chocolate
My mother’s best friend is from Bosnia. She purchased my mother some Kinders milk chocolate candy bars from a store that sales Bosnian foods. I will first say that my mother loves the chocolate bars. I have another opinion on them though. I will say that the candy bars …
Stouffer’s Grilled Mesquite Style Chicken Panini

Idaho Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes
I used to think that no instant mashed potatoes can compare with the real, homemade stuff, time-consuming as it is to make it from scratch. My family thought so as well, and homemade mashed potatoes have always been a special and appreciated treat in our house. That was until …
Purefoods Corned Beef
I rarely eat corned beef because they have a taste that is not appealing to me, sometimes I try this canned beef but I end up losing my appetite because most of canned beef in the market today are coarse and dry. I like canned tuna more than corned …

Ore Ida Golden Fries
One of my food vices is potatoes. I love them, and I especially adore French fries. I’m pretty finicky about my fries, though. I want them to be soft and hot and not oily. Some fast food restaurants really know how to make a good …

When I get hungry, I usually grab a piece of bread or a pack of biscuits. I was shopping in a nearby grocery store and I decided to purchase a big pack of crackers. I chose Rebisco crackers because it has four big crackers or square biscuits in just …
Target’s Lunch Counter

Hershey’s Dark Chocolate Sundae

Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts - Frosted Raspberry
I do not at all care for this flavor of pop-tarts for a couple of reasons. The raspberry flavor is just too gosh darn sweet - it tastes a lot more like super-sweet candy than it does natural fruit leading me to believe that this flavor has been artificially …
Mango Angel Torte of Goldilocks Bakeshop
I bought a tray of Mango Angel Torte of Goldilocks. This is almost like a refrigerator cake or Crema de Fruta that well are mostly familiar with. Actually when I bought this I was thinking I was buying just another variant of refrigerator cake. Well I think I was …

I am looking for more innovative ways to enjoy my salad, so when I tasted a version of Mexican Taco Salad in a restaurant, I was really determined to replicate the taste in my own home. While I was in the supermarket searching for stuff for my own Mexican …
Maruchan Ramen Roast Beef Soup
When I want to buy cheap and satisfying food, I still think that nothing beats ramen. I like to eat it by itself or by enhancing it with other ingredients. One of my favorite ways to make it is to separate the noodles from the broth and add stir-fry …
Smuckers Uncrustables peanut butter & jelly sandwiches
Smuckers uncrustables have been around for a few years if I remember correctly. When I first saw them I thought they were a completely pointless idea. I was like why would anyone want to spend around $5 on a box of 10 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches when you …
Yamazaki 12-Year Scotch
A Review of Yamazaki 12-year Scotch
I often gravitate toward more sophisticated and classy forms of alcoholic entertainment since nothing soothes the soul and punctuates an evening better than some Frank Sinatra records on my newly purchased new-record-player-for-old-records playing in good ole’ Mono, the smell of tobacco, and a …
Nestle Rich Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix
Although the Nestle Rich Chocolate Hot Cocoa Mix is not one that I will purchase again, I did find the hot chocolate mix to be relatively pleasant. What I liked about this hot chocolate mix is that unlike a lot of other hot chocolate mixes, this one had a …
Eggo: Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bake Shop Mini Muffin Tops
Eggo: Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bake Shop Mini Muffin Tops are terrible. They simply are. To my taste buds, these mini muffin tops are almost totally tasteless and plus, because they are so small, eating one does nothing for me at all. I know that these are not intended to …
