Guayasol Guava Fruit
The other day I visited my local Mexican supermarket and bought a few fresh guava fruits while I was there. The ones I purchased are the small Mexican variety with the white insides and the green outsides. Basically they look like little green golf balls. I have never eaten …
Kellogg’s Special K Protein Meal Bar Chocolatey Chip
I personally do not care for this particular protein bar even though I enjoy chocolate chip cookies. For one thing, these do not taste quite like chocolate chip cookies in my opinion because they are harder and chewier than chocolate chips cookies and the dough flavor is not quite …
Squirt: Citrust Burst
I was skeptical about trying this soda after a friend recommended it to me because I consider myself to be a creature of habit. I also am not a fan of grapefruit and a grapefruit appears on the can. This clear soda is kind of similar to 7-Up or …
5-hour Engery drink
After hearing so many good things about 5-hour Energy drink, I thought I would give it a try for myself.
The first things advertised are an hour five to be exact of energy without having a crash, this drink is sugar free, and only has four calories.
I bought …
Kellogg’s Cereal in a Cup
This assortment pack is nice because it gives a variety of cereals like Raisin Bran Crunch, Froot Loops and Apple Jacks and a good helping of each, too! I am able to enjoy a wide variety of healthy and not so healthy cereal and I am able to find …
Piza Hut .com
Yesterday, I ordered pizza from pizzahut.com in order to use a coupon I was given from another website. It was my first online pizza order experience and my first time in a long time ordering from pizza hut. I am a big Papa John’s fan.
Ordering online was convenient …
Koka noodles
I have tried Koka noodle tin. It is ready made noodle tin. Just add hot water to this tin and eat , that’s all. No need to cook, no need to boil, no need to add vegetables or spices. A small pack of masala powder and green pease, corn …
Metromint - Peppermint Water
Metromint - Peppermint Water is more or less about as good as hint peppermint water, and if I had to choose the better tasting flavored water, I do not think that I could. Much like the hint flavored water line, this water is also pretty pure and healthy. The …
White King Pancake and Waffle Mix
Pancakes and waffles really do have good and similar tastes. They’re best eaten while still hot. Here in our country, pancakes are more popular as “hotcakes”. They’re good for breakfast and snacks. In my case, I don’t know how to make home-made pancakes so I usually …

I loved eating chips during snack time and especially I watch some favorite DVD movies of mine I prefer to have Pringles to more enjoy my relax day. One of my favorite chips is the product of Pringles and one of my favorite flavor is Sour Cream and Onion. …
International Delight Coffee Whitener French Vanilla
This French Vanilla coffee whitener is quite good. It is fat free with 30 calories per tablespoon (7g of carbs, 5g of sugars) and tastes quite good. You make instant or percolated coffee and pour this product in as you would with milk or cream and it’s quite good. …
Bellarom Chocolate
Obviously you can’t beat the taste of name brand chocolate wherever you may live, be it Cadbury’s, Hershey’s, Lindt or Nestlé but it isn’t always the case to say that cheaper chocolate is an inferior product. Often, I find we pay in excess for a “name” with some products …
McDonalds Fruit and Maple Oatmeal
My teenage son went to McDonalds this week with a friend, and they gave him a coupon for a free fruit and maple oatmeal, the restaurant’s latest edition to the breakfast menu. He doesn’t like oatmeal, so he gave me the coupon. This morning I redeemed the …

Copperhead Red Wine by Cache River Winery
I am a big fan of Illinois wine. I am not a wine snob and probably officially wouldn?t know what experts call a really good wine if you hit me with it.
But, I am a fan of good tasting wines. I prefer whites, usually, because they are sweeter without …
Homemaker: Premium 100% Pure Florida Squeezed Orange Juice
What an amazing product. I’ve tried other orange juices before and they are just bland. They do not have any taste or they taste artificial. Even if you do find a brand that tastes amazing, it ends up costing you double what it should. Homemaker Florida Squeezed Orange Juice …
Pepsi Throwback
Although I’m a classic Coca-Cola drinker at heart, I don’t mind drinking Pepsi now and then. I don’t think Pepsi tastes as good as Coke, but it’s an alright soft drink. What attracted me to Pepsi Throwback is the real sugar ingredient in place of the potentially dangerous high …
Sanjeev Kapoor’s Khazana Hot Mango Pickle
I love pickles. Many Indians would agree that no matter how tasty a dish is there is nothing like a bit of pickle to enhance the flavors and give the taste buds a tingling sensation. Not to mention it can rev up a bland and dull dish too.
Well, …
Dove dark chocolate
For those of us who love sweets, but are still somewhat health conscious, Dove dark chocolate may fit the bill.

Kroger 100% White Corn Restaurant Style Tortilla Chips

J Higgs Cashews
I recently purchased a container of J Higgs cashews during one of our rare trips to our local Save-a-Lot store. They were $2.99, but I figured it would be a nice snack to have whenever I’m sitting at watching TV.
Overall, this was a decent product. It wasn’t as good …
Fit & Active Light Mayonnaise
Fit & Active Light Mayonnaise comes in a thirty-two ounce jar for one dollar and eighty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Light mayonnaise is an option for those that enjoy the flavor of the condiment but dislike the fat and calories. I myself don’t think that this light …
Butterfinger Crisps
I don’t enjoy all sorts of chocolates, and I am the kind of person that would crave for anything except chocolates. Of all the chocolates introduced in the market, I have only loved Butterfinger and Reese’s because of the peanut butter taste. I was set out to buy a …
Simply Asia Rice Noodle Soup Bowl
I wanted something different for lunch the other day but had to find something that wouldn’t take too long to make. So, I ended up going to the store and looking at some of the instant lunches (ramen noodle cups, etc) and eventually ended up purchasing a bowl of …
Betty Crocker Homestyle Creamy Butter Mashed Potatoes

I love Hillshire Farms Lit’l Smokies Smoked Sausage. They’re so cute and fun to eat, and you can enjoy them in a variety of ways, making them a versatile food.

Knorr Red Soup
I love Knorr products and have purchased other boxed gourmet soups with the Knorr name so when their Red Soup came on sale for only $1.99 down from $2.99 at my local supermarket I bought it straight away. The 500ml cardboard carton advertised that it served two people so …
Clover Valley Shells and Cheese
I love buying these as they save me money over the top-selling national brand. At the store where I buy them, they are thirty cents cheaper per box than the Velveeta brand and that saving goes way up if you compare the price to the local supermarket (who wants …
Betty Crocker Warm Delights Minis
These little cakes are actually pretty good, and a great idea. They come two to a package, and each package comes with a small pouch of cake mix, a black plastic bowl type thing, and a package of topping (we’ve tried the caramel and the fudge).
If …

Herr’s Peanut Butter Pretzels
I recently discovered Herr’s Peanut Butter (filled Pretzels), and I can probably now officially declare myself as being addicted. Can I just tell you how delicious these little nugget-sized snacks are? They are almost similar in look and size to the sourdough pretzel bites that Herr’s also produces, …
Mr. Pudding - Chocolate
I’ve only come across this brand of pudding at ALDI, but don’t feel too bad if you don’t have an ALDI near you and are unable to purchase this pudding because it’s a little below average as far as pre-made pudding snacks go. For just eighty-nine cents, these pudding …
Coffee People K-Cup Extra Bold Organic, Dark Roast Coffee
I always liked dark strong coffee and had tried a lot of products that promised to give dark and strong coffee. But most of the time I ended up with a sour taste or not so strong coffee and was most of the time unsatisfied with it. When I …
Betty Crocker Warm Delights
I tried this the other day and surprisingly it was really good. I didn’t expect it to be that good. You pour the cake mix into a bowl that they give you, then you put a little bit of water in it and you squeeze some of the fudge …
Swiffer Dusters Kit
I bought the fixed handle Swiffer Dusters Kit for about $9.99Cdn. This kit consists of a blue plastic handle and three dusters. The dusters are made of some fiber material, that makes me think of J-cloths. They look like the old fashioned feather dusters that people use to dust …
Cedarlane Spinach and Feta Tamales
I recently purchased the Cedarlane brand Spinach and Feta Cheese Tamales frozen product. These tamales, with quinoa for added nutrients, were not as I had hoped and anticipated them to be. The taste was too bland, and, for lack of a better word, earthy in texture.
The tamales …
Quiznos Meatball Sub
For lunch today I had a meatball sub from quiznos for lunch and I have to say I was pretty disappointed in the subs quality. I get meatball subs from Subway quite often and thought that one from quiznos would be just as good if not better. The Quiznos …
Alpro soya vanilla soy milk
I’ve been trying to find the perfect plant-based alternative to milk for my cappucino in the US, but I had no luck. However, there’s no problem with that in Europe and today I’ll show you one of my favourite options that I go for when I’m in Russia or anywhere …
Yogurt Cremoso Bianco
I’ve always liked Bianco yogurts because they have such a great taste. I don’t know if that’s vanilla or what but it really smells and tastes great. Yesterday I went to the shop and I saw this Yogurt Cremoso Bianco on the shelf. I really can’t remember when I …
Mission’s Yellow Cornflower Tortillas
Every week while I’m grocery shopping I try and search for products that are healthy, but that won’t taste like cardboard or leave me hungry after the meal. I scan the grocery shelves for the perfect product that I can be satisfied with and bring home as part of …
Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Birthday Party
Despite all the colors and flashy decorations found in and on Blue Bunny Original Ice Cream Birthday Party, there is really not a whole lot to celebrate about this ice cream. The ice cream carries roughly the same flavor as a white cake, so there is very little flavor …
Combos-Nacho Cheese
Who ever thought of combos deserves an award. Combos are a pretzle, that is made into a tube form, and then filled with cheese. These are really tasty, and fillling. i usually like to go on a search for combos when im on a road trip and stop off …
BioBest Yoghurt
This yoghurt comes in a variety of flavours. I have tried strawberry, raspberry, and peach, and so far, prefer peach. Strawberry is nice too. I have tried the individual serving packs - those small containers meant for one snack.
I bought this yoghurt because I had a coupon. I figured …
Stagg Chili Steak House no beans
Now THIS is what off the supermarket shelf chili should be! This is good stuff even if I don’t make it from scratch. Yes, this is the chili that costs up to two dollars at the store, but if you can get it on sale, this chili …
