Whether early in the morning for breakfast, mid-day or at night, this is one of the better cereals off the shelf. It’s Nice & Crunchy. I can’t decide which is better…the crunchy flakes or the taste of honey that is so pronounced you can’t miss. It doesn’t matter if …

I admit it, I don’t really like Altoid mints. I’m more of a Tic-Tac kind of girl because I like things that are fruit flavored. As a smoker though, I’m always trying to find things that taste good and hide my smoker breath, without tasting too extreme. That’s the …

What attracted me to try this sandwich was not the chicken, or the applewood-smoked bacon, or the smoked cheddar, or even Panera’s tomato basil loaf bread. It was the ancho chipotle spread, which is a creamy, spicy and smoky spread that’s supposed to meld the components of the …

Stouffer’s Easy Express Cheese Manicotti makes for a fairly tasty meal! Admittedly, this meal is more about flavor than it is about being filling, but in the case of this food, I am okay with that because the flavor comes from cheese! Lots and lots of cheese! Cheese is …
