Happy Harvest Canned Spinach
I decided to make chicken last night and, mostly because our supply of vegetables was starting to run a bit low, I ended up making a can of spinach from the brand Happy Harvest that we have had for a while.
I bought this particular brand of spinach because of …
Mrs. Freshley’s Bear Claw Danish
This is supposed to be a bear claw? Mrs. Freshley’s Bear Claw Danish really does not taste much like a bear claw in my opinion. There is very little almond flavor to be tasted and enjoyed. There is no raisin flavor either, and raisins are pretty common in bear …
MorningStar Farms Veggie Bacon Strips
This is by far the best imitation bacon product on the market, and it can even be a delicious snack for people who eat meat!
Morningstar’s fake bacon can be cooked in the oven, a frying pan or the microwave, and the end result is still quite tasty. Unlike some …
Marco’s Pizza - Pepperoni Magnifico
Marco’s Pizza - Pepperoni Magnifico is indeed magnificent! After trying this special variation of pepperoni pizza, I do not believe that I will ever order just a regular pepperoni pizza for as long as Marco’s Pizza offers this delicious creation. What is so different about this kind of pepperoni …
Great Value Tomato Condensed Soup
I have been using Great Value Tomato Condensed Soup for quite a while. Usually, we don’t eat it as soup, I use it for cooking other dishes, like hamburger pie, or as meatball sauce. The soup comes in a 10.75 oz metal can. Cooking directions are provided on the …
Combos Snacks - Cheddar Cheese Pretzel
Combos Snacks - Cheddar Cheese Pretzel is a snack that consists of a pretzel exterior and and a cheddar cheese interior, hence the name of the product. I find this particular variety to be flavorful as the pretzel exterior definitely has a potent salt flavor and once I bite …
Crosse & Blackwell Macaroni Cheese Pasta & Sauce
I think this macaroni cheese from Crosse & Blackwell is really tasty considering it is just a dried pasta and sauce mix in a sachet. It is really easy to make and can even be cooked in the microwave, as I have done. It was also really …
V8 Splash Melange Tropical Blend Beverage 1.89 L/64 FL OZ
I bought the V8 Splash Melange Tropical Blend beverage from London Drugs on May 12, 2010 for Canadian $3.50 or $7.00 for two. It was on sale and I thought it was a terrific idea to get this manager’s special. I thought I made the right decision.
This …
Edwards Singles Hot Fudge Brownie with Creamy Ice Cream
After trying a couple of other Edwards products, I saw this on sale and decided to see how it tasted. The product in question was Edwards Singles Hot Fudge Brownie with Creamy Ice Cream. The packaging and process of preparation is almost identical to their Turtle version …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Toasted Almond Fudge
This is not one of my favorite ice cream varieties. Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Toasted Almond Fudge is an ice cream variety that has quite a strong almond flavor mixed in with the creamy chocolate ice cream. I personally prefer the almonds that are mixed with the pistachio …
Energy Boost drink
This product is a cheaper verson of Red Bull. I used to buy Red Bull all the time when it just came to the market but it was so expensive so I would actually but it for special occasions only. Now there are so many cheaper versions of it …
Eggo Buttermilk Waffles
When it comes to pancakes I’m an occasional eater, but when it comes to waffles I can get them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There is nothing better than a fresh waffle coming out of the oven–that’s how I like to heat mine–with pockets filled to the rim with …
Yoplait Original Boston Creme Pie Yogurt
One of the last yogurts that I bought was the “Yoplait Original Boston Creme Pie Yogurt.” While I knew that the Yoplait brand has some interesting yogurt flavours, I actually did not know that their “Boston Creme Pie” flavour existed until I actually saw it in the supermarket. Therefore, …
Siomai House Dumplings
Don’t you just love eating dimsum meals? Well, I do love to eat them and I enjoy them as much as any other Chinese national would. I always have the taste for the dumplins, buns, and siomai as they call it in Chinese restaurants. There are over 10 siomai …
Great Value Family Size Tea
I have recently tried Great Value Family Size Tea, and I love it. I bought a smaller box, priced at $1.25, containing 24 individually wrapped tea bags. There is a large box available as well, twice the size if not more, and I think I will get that one …
Honey and cinnamon Pancakes
One of Kurt’s favourite dishes are pancakes and we make these on a regular basis. My wife and I take it in turns so he knows that mummy’s and daddies are both good in the kitchen.
The recipe that we use is very simple and was Lyndsey’s Grandmothers recipe …
Green farm basmathi rice
Two weeks back I purchased Green farm basmathi rice. But I am not satisfied with this product. Because it is not good as that of other basmathi rices. The rice is little bit short and thick. I am also not impressed with its price. It is costlier than other …
Columbia Spaghetti
As I mentioned in an earlier review, my wife and I decided to make spaghetti for dinner last night. Much like when it came to the sauce, we were limited on funds and had to rely on what we already had in our pantry to make dinner. And, fortunately, …
Maltesers
Maltesers, lovely balls of chocolate and almost perfectly made for women and children. Very similar to Kitkat in away, only this time you do not have sticks of biscuit covered in chocolate, you have have a lighter biscuit that is in the shape of a ball. As much as …
Cocco twin, 7 coconut snacks
I really like coconut snacks, I like Bounty and my sister likes it too so we were buying them quite often but then I discovered Cocco twin. We tried them and realized that we liked them even better than original Bounty. The fact that Cocco Twin costs less than …
Entenmann’s Raisin Loaf Cake
I enjoy raisins, and so I was pleased to come across Entenmann’s Raisin Loaf Cake in the grocery store one day. I was even more pleased to find that this loaf cake offered a pretty enjoyable raisin flavor! The raisins taste precisely how I expected them to and there …
Canadian Classic Cigarette Tobacco
Today’s economic conditions have led most of us to make drastic changes in our spending habits and cut down most of the things that we consider luxury. I have been smoker since my teenager years and since the cigarettes are one of the things skyrocketed in price, I …
Magic Cup noodles
A magic cup noodle is a very interesting and very tasty product from Bakers. This is nothing else but the noodles which come ceiled or packed in a cup. This cup also contains some spices and some chopped and dried vegetable mixed with the noodles. We …
Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls: Bacon, eggs, cheese, and potatoes
When I used to be a server for this family/breakfast restaurant, I would always order scrambles at the end of my shifts. My favorite one was the ham, eggs, and cheese. I would be presented with a metal skillet that was covered in potato squares, a couple of scrambled …
Pringles Ranch Flavor Chips
I have long been a fan of pringles chips. They are not as greasy as other chips and I love their flavor. Recently when I was at the store I decided to try a new flavor, Ranch. I sometimes enjoy an interesting flavor in my chips …
Wonder whole grain white bread
Wonder whole grain white bread was the substitute I found when I wanted whole grain bread without compromising on the taste and money. Wonder whole grain white is the cheapest of the white breads I found at Albertsons and snapped it without much of expectations any way. I thought …
Maruchan Oriental Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup
Ramen noodle soup is not just for starving college kids. My college days are long behind me, but I still enjoy a flavorful bowl of ramen noodle soup. Maruchan is my favorite brand of ramen noodle soup and, until recently, I would …
Subway’s Teriyaki Chicken Sandwich
I remember the first time eating Subway’s Teriyaki Chicken Sandwich. My grandpa had suggested that I try this particular sandwich and I have never regretted it!
Of course Subway allows you to choose which bread you want with your sandwich no matter what your order is. But the sandwich contents …
Spumoni Ice Cream from Edy’s
The Spumoni flavored ice cream from Edy’s brand is a flavor that looks very appealing during advertising, but does not really deliver the sort of kick that I had expected it to. The three flavors in this ice cream sounded as though they would be a delicious explosion of …
Little Debbie Fall Brownies
Although these Little Debbie Fall Brownies are decorated quite attractively, they really are nothing more than a different colored version of Little Debbie’s Cosmic Brownies. These brownies simply have orange food coloring and leaf-shaped colored candies on top. The taste, however, is identical to the cosmic brownies year-round product. …
Kentucky Fried Chicken Double Down Sandwich
For supper tonight I decided to try the new KFC Double Down Sandwich. It was surprisingly pretty good! I’m not a big bread eater , so I didn’t miss that part of it at all.
The double down is a very unique sandwich. It is 2 crispy boneless chicken filets …
Red Rocker Candy Cashew Toffee
I thought this would be good because I love white chocolate and I wasn’t disappointed. My main problem is that this type of toffee is so hard to find. I actually had to have a family member ship me some just so I could try it and then I …
Harvest Cheweee Cereal Bars
I have tried many cereal bars in my time, not that I eat them for breakfast, I just like them and eat them as a snack, especially when I am doing my part time job of wedding chauffeur. Whilst I’m waiting for the bride and groom to emerge from …
Nature’s Harvest Juice Drinks
I love juices, iced tea of colas! With juices I don’t like the most common orange juice or mango juice. I prefer to drink either calamansi or the Philippine lemon juice or more often than not, I will buy a dalandan juice. I was so thrilled that there was …
Pascia cappuccino
I must admit that 12 months I’ve tasted so many different cappuccino beverages because I started disliking coffee so I take one just in the morning and if I need or want coffee during the day I prefer making myself a cappuccino rather than making a coffee.
Pascia cappuccino looks very …
Malt-O-Meal Multigrain Cinnamon Spooners
Whole grain wheat cereal certainly isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. I know of family and friends that find shredded wheat cereal to be dry and unpleasant in texture. I will say it’s not my favorite kind of cereal, either, but I like it enough to have on occasion. It’s …
Kelloggs Honey Smacks Cereal
Another of my favorite cereals is Kelloggs Honey Smacks Cereal. This was one I always loved as a kid and still enjoy as an adult. About the only bad thing about this product is that I like to eat it more as a snack, and it’s messy …
Havmor ice cream
Havmor itself is a big name in ice cream industry in India. As most of the India regions are very hot through out year, ice cream like other cold food and cold drinks covered big market.
I ate Havmor ice cream only after I came to Ahmedabad city of India. …
Lipton PureLeaf Raspberry Iced Tea
The other day I got really thirsty and stopped by the convenience store to pick up a drink. I wasn’t in the mood for a soda so I decided to try Lipton PureLeaf Raspberry Iced Tea. I usually don’t drink bottled tea but I decided I would …
Dr. Pepper soda
I don’t drink soda as a rule. Why? Because my wife told me it has too much sugar and I believe her. Also, I checked the ingredients list and discovered that she was right. But the other day I needed caffeine in a big way and grabbed a Dr. …
Lean Cuisine Philly-Style Steak and Cheese Panini
I couldn’t resist trying this frozen panini when I saw it in the supermarket. I’ve never had an actual Philly cheese steak, but I’ve always wanted to try one, and I thought this might be the closest I could come for a while.
This panini takes steak and combines …
Petit Danino yoghurt
Whenever we babysit my little cousins, we buy mini yogurt containers. We chose these, Petit Danino, because they are small so the portion size is a good one for little kids.
Obviously, buying them in the small size packs is not the most economical way to buy yogurt - …
Han Kuk Mi Brown Rice 5 LBS. (2.26kg)
I bought the Han Kuk Mi brown rice from the Price Smart #2207 grocery chain store in Surrey, British Columbia on May 9, 2009. I have been cooking and eating white rice for so long, while my friends have been telling me that brown rice was more healthy.
The …
Lady’s Choice Spreads
Lady’s Choice offers sandwich spreads with different varieties like ham, tuna, bacon and chicken. The problem I am having with these products is that I cannot find the meat in it. On their TV commercials they say more meaty and more tasty which I don’t get because there does …
Log Cabin: Country Kitchen Butter Syrup
Log Cabin: Country Kitchen Butter Syrup is slightly better than the original variety, although the syrup is still not as good as the original Log Cabin syrup. What separates this syrup from the other Log Cabin varieties is the addition of butter to the recipe. There is a real …
Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers
Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers are one of those things that I saw and couldn’t believe it. I’ve seen potato chips with a similar flavor, but never crackers. They don’t look all that bad and they actually appear kind of cute, until you read the ingredients and the fine print. …
LUSH Tea Tree Toner Water
This product has become my HG, i can’t get enough of it. It’s so light and refreshing and just makes you feel good. It comes in a black plastic spritzer bottle (Basic but Lush make a big thing about their boring, basic packaging with all the recycling business). After …
K & A’s Fudge
I have a big sweet tooth and my dad’s friend also knows this. He came over the other day to have lunch with us and decided to bring desert. He brought with him a lovely fruit loaf and a few packages of K & A’s Fudge!
I have seen K …
Poore Brothers Potato Chips
I went to Walgreens this past weekend to pick up some snacks for a party. I didn’t want to spend too much on chips so I ended up with the cheapest bag I could find; a bag of chips from the brand Poore Brothers.
Despite the low price tag on …
