The Market Pantry Ready to Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies is a store brand product found only at Target stores. One package makes twenty-four average sized chocolate chip cookies. By average size, I mean cookies that are basically gone after two or three bites. I’m fine with the size of …

I had been very curious as to what rum cream tasted like for a very long time, but since I was a child then I was not able to try any. Nevertheless, the first time I got to try some was when I had a glass of Bailey’s Rum …

These potato chips are very nice. They are light and crispy - very thinly sliced, and the pepper flavour is very delicate - not at all overwhelming. The sea salt is nice, too - the saltiness of any potato chip is important, but I don’t like it when they …

I have a small family; just me, my wife and our daughter. Yet, when it comes to breakfast cereals, it�s nearly impossible for us to agree on one. More often than not, when we go grocery shopping, we end up buying three separate boxes of cereal to take home.
Recently, …

As a java addict, I’ve come to find that I drink upwards of three to five cups of coffee if it was a conservative day. I’ve even fulfilled my prescription to coffee at many different places, from every Starbucks within my area, to grocery store coffee, to even those …

I had to grab something quick for lunch this morning and I ended up buying a can of Our Family Ravioli in Meat Sauce.
It was an OK lunch but it could have been better.
I like the Our Family label for price. But, to be honest, the savings wasn’t really …

Arizona Vitamin C Fortified Kiwi Strawberry drink did not do much to tantalize my taste buds. It comes in a cute can decorated with pictures of colorful strawberries and kiwi fruits. For only 99 cents, it is a really good deal volume wise, and it is made …

Michelina’s Macaroni & Cheese with Ham is something that is mildly satisfying to have for lunch or to have as a side dish with dinner. I was skeptical at first as to whether or not I was going to like this combination of macaroni and cheese and ham all …

I only purchased David’s Deli - Plain Bagels once and the reason for that is the bagels seemed to be on the stale side even though I had my first one the very next morning and the “best used by date” was far off. I always check the dates …

I don’t care what brand I try, be it Pepperidge Farm, New York Style, Mama Cozzi’s, whatever, they all offer a five cheese Texas Toast and they all stink. When something reads “Five Cheese”, I personally think I’m in for something that’s going to be super cheesy, rich in …

Ever since I was a kid, I always loved drinking Milo chocolate drink. I find its sweetness just right, unlike other brands that are too sweet or too bland. I prefer my Milo with milk, sometimes I enjoy it with sugar. I like to drink it hot early in …

I was absolutely delighted after I tasted Chunky Kit Kat for the first time. It had become my absolute favourite candy bar on the market and with every thing that is great; it’s just human nature to try and make it better.
I was at the mall one day …

Now if you read some of my other reviews you all should know by now I love chocolate. To be quite honest, as much as I love chocolate I am not the biggest fan of dark chocolate although it is said to be good for you. I’m not saying …

Years ago I used to eat Pocky regularly. For anyone who doesn’t know, Pocky comes from Japan and its kind of like a candy coated breadstick. It’s light and fun to eat and comes in interesting flavors like strawberry and lychee. It’s easy to munch on while you’re on …

Breyers Chocolate Crackle definitely appeals to me in this sense: it is an ice cream that sort of alternates between a smooth texture and a crunchy texture. I like an ice cream that does just that because contrasting textures is a quality that I like in an ice cream. …

Stouffer’s Skillets Steak Terriyaki is a frozen meal that consists of pieces of beef steak with vegetables and rice. I bought it to try it out, and I would say it is a good addition to our family menu.
The ingredients come pre-mixed in a plastic bag. The packaging says …

I am not usually a huge fan of television dinners but I do love Swanson products, so when their packaged dinners came on sale two for $5 I just had to buy them. The first one I selected was the Salisbury steak dinner with mushrooms, gravy potatoes and corn, …

I was somewhat hesitant to purchase the Safeway Select Garlic Chicken Ultra Thin Crust Pizza. Although I most certainly like garlic and while I also enjoy chicken, I wasn’t very sure if I would like the two together on this pizza. It turned out though that I didn’t have …

My sister knows I love to bake, the very reason why she sent me a few packets of Betty Crocker Blueberry Muffin Mix. Of course, it was one of those mixes (again) for the lazy - the instant ones. The instructions show that I only need 1/3 cup of …

It may be the cheapest entrée on their menu but it’s better to spend your money on something else. What you get is a deep-fried morsel of chicken on a dinner roll and a pickle that spans 1/3 of the bun. This is not the dish to …

I can survive a whole week eating pizza alone, that is how much I love pizza. I go loco when I see a pizza with different kinds of meat and an overwhelming amount of mozarella cheese. Thus when I passed by a Greenwich pizza store one day, my eyes …

As my readers know, I love convenience, so it will come to no surprise that I recently tried Birds Eye Steamfresh Super Sweet Corn, which I’ve seen advertised on TV for quite a while now. I’ve hesitated on buying it because Birds Eye hasn’t really been a favorite …

Horlicks biscuits are manufactured by the pioneer health drink manufacturer Horlicks. It is really nice to see the helath drink brand in biscuit form. It has added calcium and is really crispy. Even children loves to eat and tastes similar to glucose biscuits. …

I look forward to having these tasty and nutritious waffles for breakfast in the morning. Perhaps nutritious is too generous of a word, but the waffles are a good source of ten vitamins as well as nutrients and minerals as a result of the waffles being multigrain. Ten come …

I prefer to drink fresh milk before I go to bed at night. I tried this new Selecta Fortified Milk that I found in a grocery. This is sterilized filled milk that is fortified with Vitamins like A,D, B complex, calcium and Niacin that helps our bones to be …

Nothing beats the old traditional taste of Pet Ice Cream. Pet Ice cream is what I grew up on, in fact their Ice cream making tradition is so old, its what my motehr grew up on as well.
This is a really great tasting real milk ice cream that everyone …

I am always on a quest to find better bottled drinking water that is affordable for me to drink. I have found another great drink that is bottled by the Northwest Bottling Company, and I am delighted to report that it is really affordable by the case.
I bought a …

If I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, I think I would pick the fries from Bojangles. Unfortunately for me there aren’t any of the fast food chain restaurants around me. Maybe that should be fortunately since I probably would never eat anywhere else. …

I’m a college student, and recently I have had to really find ways to save money. I am also kind of a health nut, and have been using protein supplements in my diet for a long time. Unfortunately, many of these top brand names are really expensive and i …

I recently decided to try out one of the new foods at Jack in the Box that may or may not continue to be part of their menu. The item in question is the Turkey, Bacon & Cheddar Grilled Sandwich. I love turkey sandwiches as well as …

I wanted something easy for dinner last night so I ended up stopping by Rechek’s Food Pride here in town and grabbing an 8-piece Grandma Rechek’s Fried Chicken Dinner from their deli.
The chicken wasn’t too bad.
Taste wise, I have no complaints. I was hungry last night and would have …

I had bought a pack of the “Keebler Original Soft Batch Chocolate Chip Cookies” for my brother but was very delighted when he decided to share them with me since I have always found Keebler cookies to be delicious. Well, this particular one did not disappoint me at all, …

I rarely eat corned beef because they have a taste that is not appealing to me, sometimes I try this canned beef but I end up losing my appetite because most of canned beef in the market today are coarse and dry. I like canned tuna more than corned …

Cheerios have been a staple in my house for as long as I can remember. I had them when I was a kid, I had them as a teenager and I had them in my house for my childen and grandchildren.
Nowadays, they are pushing all the healthy …

I was rather surprised to find that Mrs. Field’s cookie shop in my local mall, wanted four dollars for five cookies! Now, I could perhaps understand this price if the cookies were cake-sized, but rather, they are more morsel-like in size. So, while their marketing ploy to …

There’s nothing better than a nice glass of iced tea, strong flavored and sweetened just right to perfection. Iced tea is always good, with lunch or whenever the urge hits me. Often times I can’t just take a pitcher of homemade tea with me so I look to teas …

Being my favorite brand after being hooked to their Macadamia Nuts chocolate, I have patronized this brand. Sometimes when I am in Singapore, I have to check some of the available variety under their chocolates section. I have known the brand since grade school because of Yan Yan. This …

After recently finding Silk Original Creamer and finding that it is a delicious dairy product substitute, I wanted to try some of the other flavors that were offered. I found the French Vanilla flavor and was immediately intrigued by it.
This creamer is basically made with organic soymilk and sweetener, …

I am impressed with this Strawberry Flavour Whip from the Tesco Value range and it only costs a puny six pence for a 38g sachet. I had been craving some Angel Delight but when shopping in Tesco with a friend, she persuaded me to try this ridiculously cheap …

As a rule, I like to get the Movie Theater Butter edition of any Orville Redenbacher, or any brand, of microwave popcorn. However, sometimes I try other varieties. In this case, I purchased the regular butter flavor of Orville Redenbacher.
Usually, in the past, I’ve found the butter …

I find these Little Debbie Marshmallow Pies - Banana variety to be somewhat flavorful, although I do have a pretty big problem with the banana flavor. I know that the banana flavor is artificial, but it still could have a slightly more authentic banana flavor. The flavor that is …

We decided to try out Ritz Crackerfuls when Meijer was running a promotion. If you bought ten dollars worth of Nabisco snack crackers and three packages of Hanes underwear, socks or t-shirts, you would get ten dollars off your order. Since we already needed the Hanes underwear, Hanes socks …

It is very difficult to describe The Cookbooks Company Cooks store in Calgary to anyone who has not been there before, other than that it is a Calgary institution and it is a store for everything and anything to do with cooking. It is eclectic and has specialty and …

The buttermilk Eggo waffles are quite good and flavorful and I enjoy having one or two a week. I would have more, but they aren’t all that healthy for a person. There’s fat and cholesterol to be picked up when eating one of these waffles, so there are definitely …

Having fresh fruits is not really easy nowadays, we are always on the go, people have less time to prepare and eat fruits, and how are we to enjoy such treats if we are just going to neglect what fruits can give our bodies? Thank goodness, there is Fruitas! …

McDonald’s french fries are my favorite. I have had french fries at Wendy’s, Burger King and Dairy Queen but none of them have as good of a flavor as the ones at McDonald’s. One of the things I like is the light crispiness of the fries and how they …

Breyers Coffee ice cream is pretty bland. Now, I am not much of a coffee drinker, and when I do drink coffee, I usually have flavored coffee or a specialty coffee, so perhaps I should not have expected much from this ice cream and perhaps I should not have …

One of the side dishes I decided to make with dinner last night was sweet corn from the brand Great Value.
I have had Great Value products in the past and have been happy with them for the most part but will confess this particular item was a disappointment to …
