Parati Minueto Chocolate and Vanilla Wafers
Wafers are one of my favourite snacks to have and I always like to try new brands and flavours of wafers. Even when I find one I like I still tend to stray from it sometimes and this has proven to be a good thing because I would have …
Jollibee’s TLC Burger
Today I have a burger as my snack prior to the lunch which I brought with me from home. I seldom buy burgers already from Jollibee since the news of them putting in cultured worms as their Pattie meat and not beefs. This news was rather disgusting and so …
SM Bonus Calamansi Extract
I bought an SM Bonus ready to mix Calamansi (Philippine Lemon) extract with honey today at SM supermarket. Well I was supposed to buy this another brand that is also manufactured locally, however I thought I should try the SM bonus labeled product of the same kind because it …
Original Yoplait Yogurt
I have been eating original Yoplait yogurt ever since I was around twelve or thirteen. I have tried other yogurts over the years and I can say that none of them can compare to Yoplait. It has such a smooth and creamy texture and comes in many varieties of …
American Garden Creamy Peanut Butter
I am a mother and I am always worried about the healthy diet of my children. My children skip their meals very often and I have to force them to have the meals. I was in search of something, which is very tasty and also good in …
Lean Cuisine Butternut Squash Ravioli Meal
Lean Cuisine is a line of frozen entrees known for their low calorie count. Knowing this, I did not expect too much from my meal of Butternut Squash Ravioli. For one thing, I know that diet food often is not that good, and for another, I do not really …
Jack and Jill - Cheese Curls
As a kid one of my favorite ‘junk foods’ is Jack and Jill Cheese Curls. And mind you that was decades ago. Back then I just loved the cheesy flavor of Cheese Curls. Now I already have my own son and he just loves it. He discovered it when …
Printed Fun Pop Tarts - NASCAR
Printed Fun Pop Tarts are a limited edition product promoting the Hendrick Motor Sports racers in NASCAR. Actually, the shots for the promotion were done in 2008, though the product is just now available in early 2009. As a result, one of the four drivers isn’t actually …
Minute Maid Lemonade
Normally, I’m a soda drinker. In fact, my family tells me I drink too much soda.
However, whenever I get sick, I crave something different; lemonade.
I started buying Minute Maid Lemonade 12 packs simply for the convenience. I don�t need to mix anything. Even though it’s not real lemonade, it …
Bubble Tea
One of my recent cravings is for tea drinks with pearls. As a result, I always find myself going to the Bubble Tea branch in Tomas Morato which has only been open for several months. I like the branch because aside from being near my place, it …
Monte snack, by Zott
Although now when I think about it, it seems strange but I have never tasted Monte by Zott product in my life. Well, I remember seeing commercials on TV about Monte by Zott puddings and snacks but I have never even considered buying one. I cannot honestly say why. Zott …
Dibs - Nestle Crunch, 140 Count bag
Back in the day, it was Bon Bons that reigned supreme in the ice cream bites department. Today Bon Bons has competition from Dreyer’s (also known as Edy’s) Dibs. Dibs come in three different varieties at the moment as well as different sizes. The variety I …
Nestle Carnation White Chocolate
A lot of hot chocolate mixes actually don’t mix well, and then you get either lumps of powder that float to the top, or a big gloppy mess on the bottom. But this mix mixes right in, and I find it very easy to use - you just stir …
Stouffer’s Escalloped Chicken & Noodles
Stouffer’s Escalloped Chicken & Noodles is probably a meal that I will not purchase again. The reason I will likely not purchase it again is because I did not find the combination meal to be all that satisfying. It even upset my stomach a little. I think there was …
Sobe elixir: Fuji Apple Cranberry Lean
Sobe is one of my favorite brands of beverage. I enjoy the uniqueness of them and the natural ingredient and benefits they deliver in each bottle. I especially enjoy their product line of Elixirs. I spotted them one day in my neighborhood Albertsons, in the beverage section. Instead of …
Van de Kamps Whole Fillet Fish Sticks
We haven’t had fish sticks in a while so I decided to pick up a box of them the other day. Since most cheaper brands are kind of gross, I figured I would spend the extra money and buy a box of Van De Kamps Whole Fillet Fish sticks …
Luna & Larry’s Organic Coconut Bliss Ice Cream in Naked Coconut
One of my favorite ice creams to eat once in awhile is Luna & Larry’s Coconut Bliss Ice cream in Naked Coconut. The flavor taste just like fresh coconut milk with shredded coconut throughout it. The texture of the ice cream is very creamy and cold. I usually like …
Coke Zero
I do not really enjoy drinking softdrinks or sodas as much as others may have. I’d say I do drink once in a while when I am out on a dinner or lunch with friends. But most of the time I would still be caught drinking iced teas or …
Maryland Choc Chip and Hazlenut Cookies
These Maryland Chocolate Chip and Hazelnut Cookies are lovely, crumbly biscuits that have been around as long as I can remember. They have a rustic, home-baked look to the biscuit and they are dotted with chocolate chips and bits of hazelnut. Each biscuit is quite chunky but …
Kroger Brand Fruity Pops
I am most certainly a popsicle addict. But I like popsicle flavors that are a little “outside the box”, not your traditional Cherry, Grape, and Orange. So, when I perused the frozen food aisles at my local Kroger several years ago, and found banana popsicles, …
New York: The Original Texas Toast Cheese and Garlic Croutons
New York: The Original Texas Toast Cheese and Garlic Croutons make for a very tasty snack or a scrumptious topping to an afternoon or dinner salad. This is my favorite variety of croutons because I love both cheese and garlic, and both flavors are baked equally well into these …
Altoids Cool Honey flavor mints
Altoids mints have always been a favorite of mine and I enjoy the various flavors so I was very excited when I saw a new one on the shelf. It’s new “cool honey” flavored mints, and comes in a cute little black and yellow bee-striped tin. I …
The Co operative Fairtrade Gold Roast Instant Coffee
I gave quite a bad review of the Co-operative’s Fairtrade Instant Coffee, but this is the ‘Gold Roast’ which implies a better quality instant coffee. This is a freeze dried coffee ‘for a smooth, rich flavour’ so I was hopeful it was going to be better. This …
Macdonald’s Prosperity Meal
During the Chinese New Year period 2009, Macdonald’s introduced its very own Properity Meal. The meal consists of a beef burger, twisted fries, and drink.
The beef burger is a little spicy for me, and I take spicy food. Therefore, I do not recommend this meal for people who cannot …
GV Hot chocolate
Do you love hot chocolate on a cold winters day? I know when the temperatures begin to fall and I am chilly I enjoy sipping on a creamy and steamy cup of cocoa. I am a cheapskate by nature, and also by circumstance, so naturally when I saw Great Value …
Our Family brand Frozen Shrimp
I was in the mood for shrimp last night and decided to pull a box out of our freezer from the brand Our Family. This was the first time I had tried this brand and wasn’t sure what to expect. But, overall, it wasn’t terrible.
We were making something else …
Pauls Fish and Chip Shop in Kempston
You can always tell when a Fish and Chip shop is good, because in the evening it’s busy. I have to admit that Pauls Fish and Chip shop is the best place that I have had a good chippy.
As with most chip shops you can get your chips, sausages, …
Cold Stone Creamery in Columbia Missouri
I love ice cream. And I’ll try just about any place that sells it. Some I like better than others, but my favorite place is right here in Columbia MO at Cold Stone Creamery. I love the selections they have and the fact that even with …
Stouffer’s Fried Chicken Breast
Stouffer’s Fried Chicken Breast is a meal that I enjoyed quite a lot. The fried chicken breast has a good flavor to it and it is nice and crunchy. The chicken breath is a decent size and is almost sufficient to fill me up, along with the mashed potatoes. …
Lemon Square Whatta Tops
Lemon Square Whatta Tops is a typical chocolate cupcake with a hard chocolate frosting on top and a cream filling on the inside. This product is from the Philippines. As for the price, it could cost around Php6 or $0.14 per single pack. This one is …
Jacquot Truffles
I bought a small box of Jacquot Truffles yesterday. Imported from France, these were supposed to be good! I couldn’t wait to get home and try them. Unfortunately, I was in for a disappointment: when I opened the nice golden box and the protective pouch inside, instead of truffles …
Snack a jacks Crunchy Curls Sweet Chilli Kick
This is a new product out in the Snack a Jack Snack range. Since I am currently back on a diet I am always on the lookout for new and different snack foods that I can nibble on. I’m not a big eater, but more of a little and …
Betty Crocker Scooby-Doo Fruit Snacks
I’m kind of a fruit snack fanatic. So when I saw these Scooby-Doo themed Betty Crocker fruit snacks at my local grocery store, I just had to try them (because everything tastes better in shapes, right?). They come in a box of ten pouches, with about 8 fruit snacks …
Cadbury Old Gold Oreo Cheesecake
This is my favorite cheesecake at Banapple Pies and Cheesecakes and I do have to have this dessert every month even once! It is only priced at approximately $2 and it is a huge chunk of real cheesecake made with real cream cheese that is thick creamy, and cheesy, …
Kitchens of India Heat and Eat packs
I find so many supposedly ‘instant’ dishes that can be found in the supermarket are not really instant at all. Some of them you have to fiddle around with cups of milk and spoonfuls of margarine, others take almost an hour in the oven or are just very messy. …
Cedarlane Burrito Grande with Chili Verde Sauce
Cedarlane Burrito Grande with Chili Verde Sauce is a pretty delectable dish with the exception of the sauce. I do not like the sauce that coats the top layer of this burrito. I actually do not have a clue just what the sauce is or it consists of, but …
Kit-Kat the candy bar
The kit-Kat bar is not a bad candy bar to chow down on and there are many reasons why I like this particular candy bar and maybe like one negative thing I can mention but even that isn’t really bad. I love that the wafer bit is crunchy and …
President’s Choice PopCorn
As a big popcorn lover, I have tried many brands of microwave pop corn, from Orville Redenbackers to no-name brands.So far, President’s Choice Trans Fat-Free Butter Flavour Microwave Popping Corn is the best.
While other microwave, butter-flavoured popcorn brands are often drenched in butter and have smells that are …
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Yellow Cakes
I found these Little Debbie 100 Calorie Yellow Cakes to be pretty average in flavor. If you have ever had a regular yellow cake before, you know that the flavor is inherently none too impressive, but it can make for a light and fluffy snack that does not spike …
Bake and Churn (Robinsons Metro East)
This is not actually a restaurant, it is just a small stall or cart but their products are surprisingly delicious. So what I’m going to review now is their ice cream cakes that I love. (And it will be also your must add this to your “must try” list.)
Bake …
Betty Crocker Complete Meals
Betty Crocker Complete Meals is a terrific way to bring the family together. The betty Crocker meal only takes five minuites to prep, and an additional thirty-five minuites to bake. Anytime your in a hurry Betty Crocker Complete meals would be the way to go . The meal comes …
TGI Friday’s Beer Battered Onion Rings
We had a movie night the other night and, since we always want some sort of snack to go with our films, we ended up making a box of TGI Friday’s Beer Battered Onion Rings that were in our freezer.
I have to tell you, as far as snack foods …
York Peppermint Pattie candy
York Peppermint Pattie candy is a decent piece of chocolate candy which actually tastes rather good. The middle of this candy is packed with a filling that makes the candy pack a refreshing minty taste but it actually doesn’t taste bad and it tastes very good and delicious. I …
Fuze drink
One of my favorite things to drink when I am trying to avoid drinking soda is Fuze. Fuze is a fruit drink that is offered in 8 different flavors: tropical punch, strawberry melon, blueberry raspberry, cranberry raspberry, banana coloda, peach mango, strawberry guava, and orange mango. I …
Pillsbury Halloween Funfetti Frosting
I bought this frosting specifically for use with Pillsbury’s Halloween Funfetti cake mix. I just wanted to make a cake that looked like the picture on the box. I know, not very creative. What can I say, I was tired from grocery shopping and I just wanted to have …
Nestle Coffeemate
I usually have a cup of coffee first thing in the morning and sometimes late at night while working on projects for school and work. I happen to think that it is the creamer that makes the coffee taste good or bad.
I decided to try Coffee mate creamer …
JIF Creamy Peanut Butter
I love eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. For sandwiches, and just peanut butter in general i always like to buy JIF. i think their creamy peanut butter has a much more creamy taste to it than the otehr compearble peanut butters. this is a really great tasting peanut …
Hunt’s Snack Pack Pudding
Do you ever have a craving for something chocolate. Something that will hit the spot. Well you should try Hunt’s Snack Pack chocolate pudding made with real nonfat milk. You can buy them at the store in a pack for four for $1. How can you beat that price? …
Kroger Value Peanut Butter Cookie Mix
Kroger Value Peanut Butter Cookie Mix makes very tasty peanut butter cookies! The peanut butter flavor is rich and real and present throughout the cookie. I can say with much confidence that the peanut butter cookies from Kroger are every bit as tasty and enjoyable as the name brand …
Minute Maid’s Pulpy Orange
Minute Maid’s Pulpy Orange is an orange drink with a new twist. The name says it all. It contains natural orange pulp that sets it apart from regular commercialized orange juices. It just took me one sip to know that this drink would be a regular in our fridge. …
