Barbara’s Bakery Peanut Butter Puffins cereal
I try to look for more natural cereals and one of the companies that I have come to like, for more natural products, is Barbara’s Bakery. My favorite of their cereals is their Peanut Butter Puffin’s cereal.
I like to eat mine with rice or soy milk. …
Smithfield Center Cut 40% Less Fat Bacon
40% lower fat? Jeez, I’d hate to see how fatty the regular Smithfield bacon is! I was really disappointed in this bacon. I had recently watched a “Good Eats” episode on the food network in which Alton Brown went over the different types of bacon and how to cook …

Sugar Babies Candy
Recently I went to the gas station and they were selling Sugar Babies candy. I used to be a huge fan of Sugar babies when I was a child so I decided to purchase a box.
What sugar babies are, are small caramel candies that are then covered in chocolate. …
Pepsi
Pepsi is my choice of soft drink nowadays. I choose this over its closest competitor mainly because it is much cheaper but I get the same benefits. Plus, it’s not as acidic as it tastes compared to the other popular brand. To me, chilled soft drinks are the best …
Fit & Active Pumpkin Pie Nonfat Yogurt
The autumn season is my favorite time of the year for a myriad of reasons: cooler temperatures, breathtaking fall scenery and here’s a really big reason: pumpkin is added to almost everything imaginable! Pumpkin yogurt is a seasonal treat that I would love to be able to enjoy year-round, …
Purefoods Tender Juicy Hotdogs Cheesedogs
I went to the supermarket looking for great frozen food to cook for breakfast. I was looking around the Frozen Stuff Section when I saw a huge pack of cheesedog. These are hotdogs that are filled with cheese. I went on to look for a good brand of hotdog …
Kraft Pizza
I am not a huge fan of pre-packaged pizza mixes, but in a hurry one night I decided to try Kraft Pizza Crust Mix with Cheese, Herbs and Tomato Sauce to make a pizza for guests and myself.
This small 450gram orange box cost only $2.99CDN, which I thought, was …
Popcorn, Indiana Original Movie Theater Popcorn
This is a great treat to eat when I want a good old-fashioned popcorn that has a nice blend of butter and salt. I guess that’s why this Indiana company refers to it as movie theater popcorn. I heard that if you eat popcorn by itself with no butter …
Krusteaz: Buttermilk Waffles
Krusteaz: Buttermilk Waffles are alright, although certainly nothing overly spectacular or memorable. They are basically square Eggo waffles really. In terms of taste, they are pretty much identical to the Eggo waffles. They work out to being about equal in size, too. I did enjoy them, but I did …
Blue Bunny Banana Pops
Blue Bunny Banana Pops ended up being a not so wonderful treat for me. I enjoy banana-flavored foods and treats, but unfortunately, these Popsicles did not possess the rich and delicious banana flavor that I was quite hoping for. Although these Popsicles were not completely devoid of banana flavor, …
Original Peppermint Bark Candy from Hallmark Confections
Nothing says “the holidays” like family and friends gathered together, snacking on sweets. My mother created plates of fudge, Frango mints, caramel cookies, sprits, Russian teacakes and more in the past. Then she was introduced to Hallmark Confections and its Original Peppermint Bark. So, along with making her delicious …
Chef’s Cupboard Stuffing Mix
We were in a bit of a hurry at dinner time last night because we had to eat before going to an open house at our daughter’s school. We ended up making chicken and, to go with it, stuffing from the brand Chef’s Cupboard.
I have had the Chef’s Cupboard …
Keebler Flat Bread Crisps
I recently came across a product from Keebler that I hadn’t tried before; their new Flat bread crisps. I wasn’t really sure what to expect from them. But, I was in the mood for some sort of snack to eat while watching TV or a movie and figured it …
Lucky Me Instant Noodles
I sometimes forget to eat at lunchtime but never do I skip my breakfast. For some this is odd but for me this is actually just fine. I can’t be as enthusiastic as I should be to do my daily activities without eating my breakfast. One hot noodles, bread …
Oatilicious Instant Porridge Oats
If you are anything like me you enjoy your breakfast. As a child I always had breakfast, whether cereal or toast, I always had some thing. Then as a teenager and in early adulthood I for went the first meal of the day thinking that it would do no …
Bertolli Pesto Mediterraneo Pasta Sauce
I am getting to know the Bertolli brand as a really tasty brand as this Pesto Mediterraneo is the third gorgeous product I have tried. I have never tried anything like this before as this is a green pesto but a creamy one that contains ricotta cheese and …
Lindt Lindor Milk Chocolate Truffles
I first saw Lindt Lindor Milk Chocolate Truffles when I had went on vacation to the USA and there in one of the grocery stores. There were these relatively medium sized packages with a very rich and vibrant red colour with a clear plastic area that let’s you see …

Lay’s Potato chips Sour cream and onion
My Old time favorite is Lay’s potato chips. There could never been taste it better. I like the thin crisp of their potato chips. It’s always been a mouth watering taste and flavors to choose from. But I stick to one of their flavor which is Sour cream and …
Fuller’s ‘London Pride’ beer
I am sitting here with a contented expression on my face. Why? Well, mostly because I have just been enjoying a draught of one of the delights of the summer (and of the winter too, if truth be told). That particular delight is the consumption of a rich-tasting, …
Selecta Fruit-Pops Green Apple ice cream
From time to time, it’s nice to go out with my younger relatives, especially if it’s a trip to a convenience store. When my cousin yearned for an ice cream, she persuaded me to go to 7-Eleven, and since she’s paying for my purchase I bought Selecta Fruit-Pops Green …
Chex Mix Chex Snack Mix Trail Mix
This trail mix didn’t do much for me. It really doesn’t have very much variety in flavor or texture. There are basically two flavors to this trail mix: sweet and salty. There’s no variation in sweetness, like mildly sweet or super sweet and the same is true concerning the …
Breyers Caramel Praline Crunch
Breyers Caramel Praline Crunch is one of the better and tastier ice cream creations to come out of Breyers. First off, I am a real lover of caramel, and this ice cream definitely delivers on the caramel flavor. The caramel swirls are really pretty plentiful and offer up a …
Vitasoy Melon-Flavoured Soy Drink
I wan on my way to work, but really needed a small snack. I have been rather dehydrated these days. So I grabbed a bun and searched for a drink in the refrigerator of 7-Eleven store.
I thought that I lacked calcium, so I took a soy drink. The vitasoy …

As a quarantine inspector, I was often asked about how to judge the fresh degree of pork. Here is some of my experience about that.

Every day for the past 2 years, I’ve eaten Kashi GO LEAN Cereal for breakfast. For anyone that’s looking for a healthy, tasty, and satisfying meal at the start of the day, Kashi GO LEAN Crunch! Honey Almond Flax is a great option. With 200 calories, 500mg of omega-three …
Hershey’s Hugs
If you have not tried Hershey’s Hugs yet, you definitely should! They are a branch off from the standard Hershey’s Kisses, only it’s regular milk chocolate “hugged” in white chocolate. What a way to dress up a regular Hershey’s Kiss! These are much better, and they …
Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts - Wild! Berry
These pop tarts are quite good. They are made with real fruit, so the flavor is actually pretty rich and real. The berries included in and on top of the pop tarts are: strawberry, cherry and blueberries. I admit that the picture on the box does not really look …
Cottee’s Coola Lime Flavoured Cordial
I have been drinking Cottee’s flavoured cordial since I was a young child. Even now as an adult, I find that I still drink it on a daily basis. I don’t really like plain water on it’s own, so I find that Cottee’s cordial is the perfect …

I love a particular dish that is called Steamed Fish with Gai Lan. Gai Lan is a form of vegetable and it is actually a Chinese Broccoli. I love a healthy diet each time and considering Steamed Fish with Gai Lan plus a rice bowl will be included …
Frito Lay Cheddar and Sour cream chips
Wow, talk about a bad food that tastes so darn good that you really can’t eat just one as the old slogan boasted so long ago.
Normally I turn up my nose at any Frito Lay product, I don’t like the flavor or quailty normally. However, frito lay sour cream …
Maruchan Instant Lunch Noodles
This instant food comes very handy and convenient to me during times I got hungry and didn’t have the time to cook, especially when I’m working long hours at the computer. I am so glad they invented this quick and easy food because it helps those who are busy …
Annie Chun’s Miso Soup Bowl
I am a big Chinese and Japanese food fan I especially enjoy a good miso soup. That is why when I saw this at the grocery store I knew that I had to buy it. I paid a little over $2.00 for it which was not too bad and …
Brisk Iced Tea: Lemon Flavor
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 …
St Helier Pear Cider
As this is a drink I was unsure what category to put this in so here it is stuck in the food one.
Pear cider..what’s so exciting about that? Well apparently years ago orchard owners kept a corner of their orchard for growing pears for their cider as they believed …
Great Value Angel Hair Pasta
My family goes through a lot of pasta; both because it’s cheap and because we actually enjoy pasta dishes.

Co-op Apple and Blackcurrant squash
Previously I never would have shopped at the co-op, as I have always thought of the produce as being cheap and yet overpriced. I would have walked past the co-op in order to get to a different shop, or worse still, I would have got in my car and …
Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Yogurt Oatmeal Cremes
I find Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Yogurt Oatmeal Cremes to be a light and tasty treat to have every now and then. These creme cookies are soft and the oatmeal flavor is quite prevalent. They most certainly were not skimpy when it came to giving these cookies an oatmeal flavor! …
Jolly Rancher hard candy
Too be honest Jolly Rancher candy sucks and is horrible and the candy sucks, plain and simple the candy is horrible. I don’t like how hard this garbage is because it feels as if it is meant to be impossible to bite and chew this candy which is annoying …
Haribo Chamallow Mix
I like almost all Haribo products because they are all delicious and of a great quality. My sister bought Haribo Chamallow Mix today, one bag has 175g and we ate almost half of it in 5 minutes. Then I took the bag and hid it in the kitchen because …

Talenti Gelato in Tahitian Vanilla Bean
I really like the Talenti brand, and I buy a lot of their gelato flavors, despite the high price; however, the Tahitian Vanilla Bean, while a good base for other desserts, is not one of their best flavors.
At about $5 per pint, this is a fairly expensive ice …
Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream - Fudge Swirl
Growing up, Crystal had a product out called Marble Fudge. It was my favorite ice cream. I was probably a child addict to it. Then the grocer began to carry their own brand of product, and it phased out Crystal ice cream to nothingness. I wasn’t …
Quorn Veggie Patties and Nuggets
After a long history of eating various veggie burgers, I was really stunned when I bought the Quorn product. My boyfriend, who is a carnivore, had no idea that it was not chicken. The patty and nuggets are white like chicken breast meat, and have a texture that …
New Zealand Cookies and Cream Ice Cream
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 …
