More often than not, when I purchase microwavable popcorn from the store, I end up finding the “butter tasting” or “movie theater butter” or “extra butter” text on the packaging to be inconsistent with my expectations. The packaging claims butter flavor, I expect butter flavor, but end up not …

British chocolate is different from the chocolate you get in other parts of the world. Don’t ask me why. It seems to be a matter of history. So much so, in fact, that the EU (European Union) was made to allow exemption from some of their rulings about the …

On the label …

As someone who finds Philadelphia soft cheese a bit too light and lacking in flavour, I really like this soft cheese from Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference range. According to the label, it is made with buttermilk, seasoned with Guerande sea salt and is intentionally —˜exceptionally rich’. …

One of the first drinks that could be termed —˜spirits’ in present-day terms was —˜cognac’. Now the French lay claim to many inventions and they have every right to do so. The first moving film was made by a Frenchman (strangely enough, it was filmed in a front garden …

Quite unfortunately, there is nothing really all that supreme about Stouffer’s Italian-Style Supreme Stromboli. Two of the most disappointing aspects of this Stromboli are the sausage and the pepperoni. Now first, let me say that I can indeed taste both, however, the flavor of both the sausage and the …

This nutrition protein bar is pretty tasty. It combines two things that I quite like: caramel and peanuts, so I guess it’s really no surprise that I took a liking to this bar the moment I tasted it. It helps that the bar is made with care and that …

Jell-o Gelatin - Strawberry Kiwi is a tasty variety, however I would like it better if the kiwi flavor was better represented. The strawberry flavor overrides and dominates the kiwi flavor, and I find that to be disappointing. I was really hoping to enjoy some delicious and scrumptious kiwi …

I absolutely love to eat pizza but I don’t always agree with the cost of delivery or frozen pizzas. I picked up a little inexpensive pizza called Totino’s classic pepperoni pizza. It was a frozen pizza and needed to be baked. I looked at the instructions and noticed that …

For the first time ever, I recently tried Nathan Dinner Beef Franks. I’ve seen them for years, but this was the first time I’d purchased them. These are definitely big franks, being one-quarter pound each. There’s only four in the regular package as a result, and …

Well, we had a steak dinner last night and I was getting sick of potatoes (we had them three nights in a row) so I ended up digging through my pantry for something else.
I ended up finding cornbread stuffing mix from the brand Chef’s Cupboard.
This is a generic brand …

I am going to share something really yummy I experienced just recently. Before going any further, let me confess I am highly addicted to tea. Even if someone offers me a cup of tea in the middle of night, I am always ready to it. But I have to …

Up until recently I had no clue that the restaurant I sometimes buy from, “Tastees” had chicken nuggets, and much more, a chicken nugget combo meal. It was only recently when I visited it for a change that I noticed the “Tastees Chicken Nuggets Combo meal” on the board, …

Good thing, this instant cup noodles of Nissin was introduced …

I love candles. They smell so good and relax me. I especially love food smelling candles. I love this one by Kathy Ireland. You can find these at Wal Green’s and probably Wal Mart. It looks like it’s made for the kitchen; it comes in a long-ish jar and …

One day, while “chewing the fat” with a fellow employee at work, I was told about a wonderful seasoning enhancer named Accents. I hadn’t heard a thing about it, and my co-worker was extremely surprised- to say the least. She told me that she’d bring me a little in …

Unfortunately, there’s no difference in taste when it comes to the spaghetti sauce used for Michelina’s Spaghetti Marinara and Michelina’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce.

Of all the places I could have found this item, guess where I found it; the dollar store. I figured if it wasn’t great I only wasted a dollar so no harm no foul. I’m always still so surprised when I see great brand name items that obviously do …

I saw this bag of rice in the grocery and I got curious on how it was labeled as Active rice and it claims also to keep you full for a longer period of time. I do know that most rice keep you full especially if you have taken …

Ok it is true, I am almost 27 years odl and my favourite chocolate is the chocolate for kids. I really wonder how many grown ups can say that they don’t like this chocolate? I guess our taste doesn’t change that much with years because when I was little …

The Blue Horizon Four Cheese Fettuccine Pasta is a frozen pasta that I have only noticed in ALDI Food Market stores. That’s actually an okay thing since I wouldn’t buy this frozen pasta again even if it was easily found in other stores. I simply didn’t enjoy this pasta …
