The Santa Fe Enchilada Bowl is another one of the meals that I have fallen in love with. I always feel like I have had a good meal when I eat this and that is probably because it has 16g of protein. With that amount of protein for 350 …

I was given the pleasure of trying this new product from Silk during the summer when my mother brought home a half gallon of it. My initial reaction was that this was some kind of blended smoothie in a carton and was going to have a thick consistency that …

Despite Snyder’s of Hanover Cheddar Cheese Pretzel Sandwich having the word “pretzel” in the name of the product, these sandwiches are not really that crispy or crunchy.

Sainsbury’s Eric & Friends Fruit Gums are basically kids’ sweets, but that doesn’t stop me from eating them sometimes! That goes double as they are really very inexpensive - a 75 gram pack costs just 39 pence, and the supermarket usually offers a “buy three for a pound” deal …

Summit Diet Cherry GT Cola retails for one dollar and ninety-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. In one twelve pack comes twelve-ounce cans. It’s not all that easy to describe the flavor of this diet cola. Sure, it has a noticeable cherry flavor to it, but beyond the …

I find these Little Debbie Cherry Cordials to be decent, although nothing truly incredible. This snack consists of vanilla cookies that are coated in chocolate fudge and have cherry creme in the middle. Now the reason I simply consider these cookies to be decent and nothing more is because …

Do you know what “adobo” is? It’s actually a Filipino dish which is a soy sauce based meat recipe. Does it good? Well for me it is cause I’m a Filipino and I grew up with it. People from outside my country may think this will be another scary …

The Waffle Potato Fries at Chick-fil-A are much better than the typical fast food fry, in my opinion.

I have to say that I’m a little particular when it comes to cookies and cream flavored ice cream. Unless the ice cream itself is really good, I won’t like it. I’ve had a lot that used cheap ice cream and loaded it down with cookies to make it …

A Review of Yamazaki 12-year Scotch
I often gravitate toward more sophisticated and classy forms of alcoholic entertainment since nothing soothes the soul and punctuates an evening better than some Frank Sinatra records on my newly purchased new-record-player-for-old-records playing in good ole’ Mono, the smell of tobacco, and a …

When I was younger, my parents and I had a compromise about which types of cereal I could eat. My mother would buy one box of “kid” cereal for every one box of healthy cereal that I ate. But once we discovered Quaker Cinnamon Life cereal, there …

Everywhere you look, there seems to be some type of 100 calorie snack or snack pack around on the store shelves. I’ve tried a lot of these over the years and there are a few I like and a few that I don’t. Hershey’s has started making a couple …

I’m not sure if you have gone to the trouble and huge expense of ordering a Stuffed Crust Pizza from Pizza Hut, but if you have not, you need to at least try it once. Of course you won’t want to do this ever again. The price …

I really like getting the ful size …

I haven’t been a big fan of McDonald’s for many years. It’s not really because of the chain itself, but of a local owner of two nearby McDonald’s and who in my opinion had some unfair business practices. I guess you could say I’ve had a private …

I bought these chickpeas at Safeway Supermarkets in Melbourne, Australia for AU$3.50 in the international foods aisle, in the section where packaged entrée or side-dish meals are displayed.

I found the …

I always wonder how Fast food chains such as Jollibee and Mc Donald’s make such wonderful and very tasty chicken gravy to the point that I want to deep my finger in it and lick my finger afterwards.
And because my two kids also want chicken gravy too …
