Quaker 100% Whole Grain Old Fashioned Oats

Country Crock Loaded Mashed Potatoes

Splenda

I purchased this Five Cheese Texas Toast once, but never will I spend money on it again! This is supposed to be a five cheese blend on each slice of Texas Toast, but I had a difficult time tasting more than two, and even the two flavors of cheese …

New York Style - Garlic Pita Chips
New York Style - Garlic Pita Chips disappointed me from the first chip that I tasted to the last in the bag. While it might sound odd that I finished the bag despite the fact that I was unhappy with these chips, I really dislike throwing food away because …
Lawler’s Cheesecake Miniatures Variety
The Lawler’s cheesecake miniature variety box is a brand of cheesecake that I’m not familiar with. Purchasing the Lawler’s cheesecake miniatures variety was a complete impulse buy, but thing that truly caught my eyes were the raspberry and turtle cheesecakes–I never tasted them before. The best thing about the …
Pringles Stix Cheese
If I had to, I don’t think I could choose between the cheese-flavored “stix” and the jalapeno-flavored “stix”, both made by Pringles. Both are really good and great to have just as a snack or with a sandwich in place of potato chips. This review is about the cheese-flavored …
Marlboro Virginia Blend
I was somewhat hesitant to try Marlboro’s Virginia Blend. Marlboro makes some fine cigarettes, but they also make some real stinkers, too, and I was afraid their new Virginia Blend would fall under the latter category. However the price was right, as they were marketing it with …
Creamfields Sunflower Light Spread
Creamfields Sunflower Light Spread is not only cheap, but it is low in fat and calories and it also tastes pretty good considering it is not real butter. I would always prefer to have real butter for certain things, such as melted on a baked potato, but I …
Fit & Active Pepperoni Pizza Lean Stuffed Sandwich
I knew I might not like this frozen stuffed sandwich because of it being “lean”, but I was willing to give it a try for a dollar seventy-eight. Unfortunately, my concerns turned out to be justified as this stuffed sandwich just came across as being pretty bland to me …
Tesco Freeze Dried Chives
These chives from the Tesco range of seasonings are really rather good. A lot of people are turned off by jars of seasonings, especially dried stuff, and the rise in organic food and grow your own has no doubt turned people off this simple alternative, but don’t let that …
Breyers Buttered Almond
Breyers Buttered Almond is an ice cream variety that sounds tasty, but unfortunately it fails to live up to its rather mouth watering name. The problem I have with this ice cream is that there are not nearly enough almonds to be found. The ice cream certainly is not …
YMA Apple Cinnamon Flavored Water
I miss drinking YMA Apple Cinnamon Flavored Water. It is not that it has been discontinued - I could still easily purchase this water if I so desired, and I do, but I have to control that desire and work to stifle it because this water is, quite unfortunately, …
Weight Watchers Smart Ones Spaghetti with Meat Sauce Frozen Dinner
If there’s one thing I personally have a weakness for, it’s spaghetti with meat sauce. I’ve always loved this classic dish and I love trying new versions of it. In this frozen dinner, it’s paired with lots of flavorful ingredients including onions and flavorful, meaty mushrooms. I am a …
Yoplait French Vanilla
Along with the Banana Creme and Strawberry varieties produced by Yoplait, the French Vanilla variety is among my favorites. Vanilla, in general, I love, especially in the form of ice cream, but it is very tasty in yogurt too, as this product proves. Every spoonful is rich in French …
Jif Creamy Peanut Butter
So nothing special this time. Just the most popular peanut butter in the US. Maybe the second most popular, oк the third, I haven’t really checked the ratings. But for me, this is the best creamy peanut butter from the store so far. A few weeks ago I got on …
Sharwood’s Tandoori Mukhani for Butter Chicken

Ghirardelli Chocolate Double Chocolate Brownie Mix
This boxed brownie mix has chocolate chips in the mix. The chocolate chips that end up being baked right into the brownies provide “pockets” of richer, stronger chocolate flavor amidst the more subdued but nonetheless good brownie cake, hence the “double chocolate” name on the box. Although I wouldn’t …
Gatorade Frost: Glacier Cherry
Gatorade is the sports drinks that’s been around for over thirty years now. Generations have used the beverage to energize, recharge and of course play hard.

Trader Joe’s Low Sodium Minestrone Soup
Minestrone soup can either be wonderful or awful; rarely have I run into minestrone soup that didn’t fit into one of these categories. Usually, I find minestrone is wonderful and I’m always up for trying new varieties to see what kinds of things people do with it.
When I bought …
Trader Joe’s Kalamata Olive Hummus
I was intrigued by this hummus because I love the taste of kalamata olives. These are large purplish-black almond-shaped Greek olives that have a lovely texture that is similar to meat. Trader Joe’s hummus tends to have a pasty, rather than creamy, texture to it, which is not something …
Baker’s Corner Patriotic Sprinkles

Pop Weaver Extra Butter Popcorn
I personally can’t taste a whole lot more butter on this variety of popcorn compared to the “Butter” variety, also made by Pop Weaver. I can certainly feel it on my fingers, but I can’t quite taste the extra butter once the popcorn leaves my hand and enters my …
Lean Pockets Whole Grain Chicken, Broccoli & Reduced Fat Cheddar
Lean Pockets Whole Grain Chicken, Broccoli & Reduced Fat Cheddar is a frozen food product that retails for one dollar and ninety-nine cents. Two come in a package. This Lean Pockets product was enjoyable to an extent, but I feel it could have been much tastier. First of all, …
Chocolate Nesquik
Chocolate Nesquik is a power that is put into milk to turn it into chocolate milk (a VERY innoviative name). There are other flavours apart from chocolate (such as strawberry, banana, caramel and honey comb), but chocolate is my favourite.
One criticism is that chocolate nesquik is high in sugar, …
Egg Beaters Real Egg Product
For my whole life, I had avoided breakfast like the plague. I thought or suspected I was allergic to milk. But I never dreamed that I was just as allergic to eggs. I would wake up at 8AM, but I would not eat until noon. …
Slimfit Tropical Fruit Powdered Drink
A lot of slimming products in the market are quite competing with one another with claims like ‘fastest fat burner’ or ‘contains 100% L-Carnitine’. However, my mom recommended Slimfit for me. It doesn’t sound popular in the market nowadays but I find it very effective.
I was having a hard …
Nutella Chocolate Hazelnut Spread
I am an extremely, 100%, die-hard, number one fan of this spread: the Nutella Hazelnut Spread. And I’m not being overly dramatic when I say it’s like heaven inside the mouth. It’s just so smooth, creamy, tasty, and it has just the right sweetness. The only downside is that …
Trader Joe’s Organic Lentil Vegetable Soup
Lentil soup can be a comforting and delicious kind of soup. If it’s made right, it can be delectable. I usually love lentil soup, so when I found this canned soup at Trader Joe’s, I decided to try it. Trader Joe’s has a reputation for making good and wholesome …
Turbo Tea
There are so many energy drinks on the market these days that it is pretty tough to tell them apart. Sometimes you can’t and you are left with the option of having to ‘taste test’ a number of them to find out which one is best for you. Of …
Pillsbury Grands! Honey Butter Frozen Biscuits
I much prefer purchasing the bags of frozen Pillsbury biscuits over the biscuits that come in a canned roll because I love the convenience of being able to bake only the number of biscuits I want or think I will need. Fresh biscuits always taste better than biscuits that …
