RagAppleLassie Vineyards Merlot
I had high hopes when picking out this attractively-bottled red drinking wine, but despite the beautiful bottle and description, I was disappointed by the overall quality and drinkability.
To start off with the positives, I was completely sold on this bottle of wine by the beautiful and attractive design on …
Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake
For me, Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake is a real seasonal treat! While I’m not a fan of every single Jell-o product on the shelf, as I’ve found the line of products to be hit or miss at times, wondering how the flavor on the packaging could be …
GreenWise Organic Spring Mix
Boxed lettuce mix is a convenience item for me because I can get a blend of lettuces without the hassle of washing and chopping all that lettuce. I usually just buy my boxed salad at WholeFoods along with the majority of my produce, but they were out of the …
Milo Energy Drink
I am not a coffee lover, this is an irony of life for me actually. For a person who worked in a call center for almost five years, I should have love drinking coffee in Starbucks like 90% of call center agents does. But yes, I don’t belong with …
Chef Boyardee Microwaveable Spaghetti and Meatballs
A decade or so ago, I happened upon Chef Boyardee Microwaveable Spaghetti and Meatballs. Since I’m a kid at heart anyway, and since I loved their canned product of the same meal, I decided to give it a try. Anything that can save me cleanup gets my …
Old Orchard Healthy Balance Juices
If you live with a diabetic like I do you know that sugar and carbs are difficult to stay away from. These juices are sweetened with Splenda therefore they contain 75% less sugar and what sugars they do have is from the fruit itself. These juices also all under …
Fishermen’s Friend lozenges, eucalyptus
The other day I was at the Muller store and I saw a small package of Fisherman’s Friends lozenge. I like to keep some kind of mint candy in my purse all the time if I am somewhere and my breath needs refreshing or I just feel thirsty but I …
Wendy’s - Chicken Club
Wendy’s - Chicken Club is a heavy sandwich! The breast fillet is quite thick and offers up a whole lot of chicken! It is very tasty too, and I always order the breaded version because I know that I will enjoy the sandwich much more than if I were …
Arrowhead bottled Water
The best bottled water you can drink! Literally. This water is one of the best and purified bottled waters in the US. Its popularity shows this. The bottle design is economical, (even conserving plastic resources in the process), saving you a lot of space in the long run. Buying …
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 …
Grace Thick and Creamy Macaroni and Cheese Elbows
In the summer when my brother was working at Grace Foods Limited, he was given a few food items to take home from a grab bag. One of these food items was one box of “Grace Thick and Creamy Macaroni and Cheese Elbows”. I can remember that even though …
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 …
L’Oven White Bread
I picked up bread the other day thinking we didn’t have any at home. But, as it turns out, my wife convinced my parents to pick up some groceries for us since they were at the store anyway and she didn’t want to go out in the cold with …
Betty Crocker - Triple Chunk Brownies
Betty Crocker - Triple Chunk Brownies are not for me. Although the brownies are most certainly rich in authentic chocolate flavor and while the brownies came out and stayed quite moist for several weeks, what I did not care very much for was the big chunks of Hershey’s kisses …
Healthy Choice Portabella Marsala Pasta
My eye caught this pasta product because I’m always interested in trying new pasta shapes. The description sounded very appealing —“ pasta and crimini mushrooms with marsala wine sauce and fontina cheese. To add to the appeal, the calorie count is under 300 calories and it is …
Chunky Classic Chicken Noodle Soup
It took about a week but I ended up catching the cold my wife and daughter had last week over the New Years holiday.
It was a bad one too. I know this because I had no appetite; something that is rare for me because I usually eat like a …
Buitoni Grilled Vegetable & Goat Cheese Agnolotti
I eat a lot of pasta and we really enjoy fresh pasta. For the price and quality we usually buy buitoni brand pasta in the refrigerated section of our store. 99% of their products are excellent. They would be the brand if I walked into a …
Del Monte Sweet Blend Ketchup
I am a ketchup addict. I am really particular with the ketchup that I buy, so I always trust my favorite brand, Del Monte. I bought a bottle of Del Monte Sweet Blend Ketchup. I love to put ketchup on anything and my husband does too
The Del Monte Sweet …
Tesco Garlic Salt
This product from the seasoning and spices range at Tesco is a welcome addition to any spice rack. It’s a garlic powder/salt type of thing, so doesn’t have the potency of a fresh alternative or the flavour of a paste, but for the money, it’s a good alternative that’ll …
Great Value Fat Free American Cheese Singles
Cheese has always been one of my favorite foods. I love all times, but sliced cheese is something that I buy often. I recently decided to shed some pounds and stay away from high calorie cheese. I saw the Great Value brand Fat Free American Cheese Singles. They were …
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Mild
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Mild variety is indeed mild. This cheese dip, I think, is ideal for those individuals that like a cheese dip that has just a little fire to it. When I dip a chip in the cheese dip, I get a fairly thick and non-runny dip …
Tea Forte Maine Blueberry Honey
I love trying new honeys when I can find a new one to try. I love natural honeys to flavor my herbal teas, sauces, sweet treats and simply as spoonfuls to help ease sore throats, coughing and even hiccups. One of the natural honeys I picked up an have …
Nescafe Chocolate Flavored Coffee Mix (Choco Fudge)
My family loves coffee and tea. But we are lazy to prepare one from scratch and so we make do with prepared coffee or tea mixes. My mother loves to buy Nescafe Chocolate Flavored Coffee Mix in Choco Fudge while I prefer hazelnut flavor. When I ran out of …
Crystal Light Raspberry Ice drink mix
We bought these in the new individual sized servings, where you just take the small tube and pour the powder into a glass of water.
These contain aspartame, which isn’t really good for you, but if you are on a diet it is a substitute for sugar. I’m not on …
Samosa Noodle Rolls
Samosa Noodle Rolls is quite a weird side-dish, if you look at it closely. However, the taste is quite nice and mix in some ketchup sauce and you are ready to dip in nicely.
To make this, you need some basic stuffs only and not that hard. …
Godiva Truffles
My boyfriend gave me a box of Godiva chocolates for Valentine’s Day and I sort of let it slip that I’m addicted chocolate. So every time he does something that hurts me, he apologizes by having some Godiva chocolates delivered to my house. And I can’t help but give …
Strawberries & Creme Creme Savers
I have discovered a new candy dish filler: Strawberries & Creme Creme Savers. If you like the taste of strawberry, you’ll love this hard candy. I bought a bag for my husband who is a strawberry fan, and we both liked it. The 6 oz bag costs a little …
Taco Bell Chicken Soft Taco (Canada)
The Taco Bell chicken soft taco (Canadian version) makes for a nice lunch. It contains seasoned chicken, lettuce, tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, and avacado ranch dressing in a white flour tortilla. The flavors are well balanced but maybe a little salty. The avacado ranch dressing is really the star …
Cadbury Dairy Milk Silk Fruit and Nut
I got curious on the advertisement of Cadbury which featured Silk Cadbury so that is why we bought it at a grocery in Hypercity. I really do like Cadbury chocolates and that is one of the reasons why I bought Cadbury Dairy Milk Silk Fruit and Nut variety.
The taste …
Bell’s Whisky
I am a keen quaffer of Scotch whisky and I can claim a degree of discrimination when I drink it. Like all unique drinks of any kind, there are certain brands of Scotch which may lay claim to excellence in their own, if no one else’s eyes. Amongst those …
Cap Colombie NESCAFE (Instant coffee)
There are people who atually prefer instant coffeee to the brewed stuff… I am one of them.
As such, I have tried many instant coffee brands, but I still find Nescafe to be the most suited to my taste.
My favorite blend used to be the “Classic mild”, which I still …
Apple and Eve Organic Apple Juice
Not too long ago, I needed organic apple juice as part of a gall-stone cleaning remedy. Not being a big fan of apple juice, I wasn’t too thrilled about that, but I decided to try it out, anyway. Upon going to the store, they only had two …

This is one of my kids’ favorite, Nestle Koko Crunch. It comes in chocolate flavor and Nestle Koko Crunch duo (this is their new product), which is the milk and chocolate in one packaging. My kids eat this often as snacks while watching TV or in the …
Diet Pepsi
Diet Pepsi is perhaps the worst diet soda on the market. It always tastes flat and looses any carbonation quickly. It tastes like rancid water, not a soft drink.
On the up side, Diet Pepsi has no calories, fat, etc. If you are on a diet or trying to watch …
See’s Old Fashioned Milk Chocolate Drops
I’ve purchased See’s Old Fashioned Milk Chocolate Drops for years from the local See’s store.. A lot of shoppers actually purchase these drops to use for baking in cookies and such, but one day one of the clerks mentioned that she kept them around as a treat. …
Kitchens of India Heat and Eat packs
I find so many supposedly ‘instant’ dishes that can be found in the supermarket are not really instant at all. Some of them you have to fiddle around with cups of milk and spoonfuls of margarine, others take almost an hour in the oven or are just very messy. …
Applebee’s Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwich
I tried almost every chicken sandwich that has been offered at sit-in and fast food restaurants. When someone gave me a gift card for Applebee’s for my birthday, I tried their Honey BBQ Chicken Sandwich. It sounded hearty and promising —“ grilled chicken breast with BBQ sauce …

I think every body in Indonesia know what is Indomie instant noodles. This is instant food or instant noodles that you can find every where. I mean, if you are going to do grocery, you will probably see it on the supermarket where you do your grocery. But if …
Hooters: Great Service and Food, for once
Last night, my friend and I decided to venture into Hooters. Being from Texas, the local Hooters restaurants are owned under a different company, the Texas Wings Association, and the food quality isn’t so bad. Down south, the food can at least taste better than those bar nachos you …
Kat Kat Tat by Ulker
When I came to the store the other day I really wanted something sweet but not too sweet like chocolate nor dry like cookies so I thought that Kat Hat Tat would be perfect. Actually I never tried it before and it looked really delicious on the picture of …
Marlboro Menthol Blend No.54 cigarettes
These new cigarettes went on sale last week in my hometown for $20 a carton. Normally, I don’t smoke menthols except on occasion but I couldn’t resist the price. For less than $3 a pack though, they are well worth the price.
They are shorter than regular smokes, but not …
Korean Sushi
My mom today made some korean sushi - it’s shaped like a flat triangle, with various stuffings inside such as spicy tuna or chicken. This is a wonderful and easy snack to make. YOu can buy the “mold” for the triangle shaped riceball even and then put the stuffings …

It tastes heavenly as I may describe it. Lotte Choco Pie is something that I really like to have in my snack. It is a chocolate covered sandwich cream that is with a soft marshmallow in between.

Schneider Lunch Mate Stackers - Turkey
We buy these for our son on days when we want to give him a “treat” or we just don’t know what to send him for lunch, since he is not a good sandwich eater.
They cost around $3.50 (when we first started buying them they were under three dollars, …
