The Inverarity Scotch Whisky

Recently I bought Knorr Broccoli Soup with Boursin Cheese on sale at my local supermarket for just $1.99CDN. I have long been a fan of Knorr soups but had only ever bought the powdered packaged kind. This soup came ready made in a 500ml sturdy cardboard container.
I had never …

Mister Choc milk chocolate peanuts

Sainsbury’s Basics Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce

Blue Bunny Banana Pops

Although these Popsicles were not completely devoid of banana flavor, …

Nature’s Path: Blueberry Toaster Pastry
I prefer the Nature’s Path: Blueberry Toaster Pastry compared to the Nature’s Path: Frosted Blueberry Toaster Pastry. The reason I prefer the non-frosted over the frosted is because the non-frosted variety allows me to better appreciate and enjoy the blueberry flavor. Speaking of the blueberry flavor, I find the …

Marie Callender’s Turkey Breast with Stuffing
I’ve eaten other Marie Callender turkey products before, but they aren’t big favorites, though. In fact, I purchase them sparingly. It’s not because of taste, but because of one part of the meals that I don’t like — the gravy. This specific item, Marie Callender’s Turkey …
