Burger Machine
Trying out Burgers at Burger machine is really easy; they are almost available in most common places where there are big places for a stall along highways and main roads around metro manila. I remember having been able to try some of their offerings and burger meals since there …
Lay’s Kettle Cooked Potato Chips
There was once a time when Doritos, Ruffles, and Pringles ruled my snacking and/or lunching experience. But over time, I began to be drawn to more natural flavors and textures. Suddenly chips with too much salt or seasoning weren’t that appealing to me. I think the …
Munchies
Sometimes I get bored with the regular chips and pretzels that lack variety and want a snack that is on fire to make my taste buds water. By eating a variety of snacks mixed together I can get satisfied pretty quickly and will not have to eat …
Sanjeev Kapoor’s Khazana Hot Mango Pickle
I love pickles. Many Indians would agree that no matter how tasty a dish is there is nothing like a bit of pickle to enhance the flavors and give the taste buds a tingling sensation. Not to mention it can rev up a bland and dull dish too.
Well, …
Dairy Milk Caramel Nubbles
These little bits of Chocolate haven’t been out all that long. I can’t say how long they have been out, perhaps 6 months or so. I tried them when they first came out and they are really nice.
I like the Cadbury’s brand and like Cadbury’s Caramel. It is quite …
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Sweet & Sour Chicken
Stouffer’s Easy Express Skillets Sweet & Sour Chicken is a meal that could have been quite satisfying, but because of some problems here and there, it ended up being a meal that I likely will not purchase a second time. The chicken might very well be tender, but despite …
Selecta Fortified Milk
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 …
Haagen Dazs Brazilian Acai Berry Sorbet
Whenever I am in Makati to purchase something or in business, I have to go to my favorite mall, Power Plant Mall. Right there is my favorite spot of Haagen Dazs store. It is just a kiosk in the middle of the 2nd level near Mango and Kate Spade. …
Johnsonville Original Recipe Breakfast Sausage Patties
I’ve been hearing about Johnsonville Original Recipe Breakfast Sausage Patties for years, but I’ve never had them; at least, not to my knowledge. When presented with both a coupon and the item on sale recently, though, I decided to give them a try and see if they lived …
Sargento - Fancy Shredded Pizza Double Cheese
Sargento - Fancy Shredded Pizza Double Cheese is a cheese that I use on pizzas that I purchase from the grocery stores. I like to add additional cheese to the frozen pizzas because, for me, it never quite seems like there is sufficient cheese on the pizzas. Thus, what …
Meijer brand Monterey Pepper Jack Cheese
I’m a bit of a cheeseaholic. I simply can’t get enough. I don’t really care for the highly ‘fake’ cheeses, like Velveeta, cheese spreads in jars, or liquid cheeses. I do love any kind that comes in a brick that I can cut into chunks and …
Mahatma Saffron Yellow Long Grain Rice
I tried this product one evening when visiting with my relatives. I fixed it along with a skillet cooked pork chops, gravy and fresh steamed broccoli. Normally when I prepare rice, I usually use only brown or white rice, but this time around out of request, I used …
Cheese Nips cracker
Cheese Nips are a small cheese cracker that my children love to eat as a snack. These crackers are also great for packing in school lunches. I personally had never eaten one until a few days ago. I do not snack that often, and I usually prefer to eat …
Kroger Value Beef Patties
Kroger Value Beef Patties are alright, although I do find them to be a little more fatty than other pre-shaped beef patties that I have purchased before. The beef patties do have a pretty decent flavor to them and when I make hamburgers out of them, I am generally …
Sobe Energize Power Fruit Punch
I tried another flavor from the elixir line of Sobe called Energize fruit punch when my neighborhood Kroger was running a sale on them for only eighty cents. Considering I’ve previously tried a previous flavor from this brand I wasn’t too hesitant to grab a bottle.
Personally I’m not …
Sierra Mist Cranberry Splash
I love Sierra mist, about the same as I love Sprite. I was in the grocery store tonight and I noticed that they came out with a new Sierra mist. I have not seen any commercials or heard any advertising on it. Of course I love to try new …
Mrs. Dash’s Southwest Chipotle Salt-Free Seasoning Blend
I like Mrs. Dash’s salt-free blends. I think they’re a great alternative to other forms of seasoning that have lots of sodium. I really think they try hard to create the best possible flavor mixtures without adding salt.
Their Southwest Chipotle blend is perfect for any dish that calls for …
Starburst Original Fruit Chews
As I am over 40 years of age I of course think of Starburst fruit chews as Opal Fruits, their original name. Whenever there is a name change of my favourite sweets or confectionary I always refuse to call it by its new name until I have to …
Hershey’s Kisses Chocolate Truffles
I have never known that Hershey’s Kisses Chocolate Truffles existed till I visted a candy shop at Grand Bazaar with my grandparents. It was all because my grandmother wanted ice cream which is why we went in there. This was the first time and place that I had ever …
Tesco Value Apple Pies
I went to Tesco for something specific today with only a bit of cash and no cards, so when I had got what I wanted I had 50 pence left and wondered what sweet I could get for that price. I bought these six apple pies from Tesco’s …
Jamie Oliver Green Pesto
I tried out Jamie Oliver’s green pesto and found it to be a very good quality pesto with a rather light flavour. This is the usual blend of basil, extra virgin olive oil, pine nuts etc, with the added flavour of Grana Padana cheese. To compare it …
Maxwell house coffee
My husband and i have been buying maxwell house coffee for well over 4 years now. we especially love the french roast coffee flavor because of the smooth taste. I love the coffee and sometimes i like to add my own flavors in my coffe such as …
Stouffer’s Corner Bistro Margherita Flatbread
Stouffer’s Corner Bistro Margherita Flatbread is probably something that is geared towards vegetarians or for those that simply love vegetables. I personally find the sandwich to not be filling at all, really. It is sort of fine if I am not too hungry and it is lunch time and …
Orbit Mist
I recently tried the new gum from Orbit called Mist. I love chewing gum. Especially when I am bored. So I have tried almost every gum on the market. I must say that this gum is at the top of …
Munchini Choco Sticks
My grandmother loves to shop for bargain stuff in the barter. She loves to buy Apollo wafer sticks and just recently she bought this Munchy’s Munchini Choco Wafer Sticks. It comes in a huge plastic bin with a red handle. For 480 grams of chocolate cream wafer sticks, this …
Ferrero Rocher chocolate
I’m sure a lot of people have seen the Ferrero Rocher commercials, you know the one where the gods drop their precious chocolates down to Earth, yeah that one. Before that commercial I had already been a big fan of Ferrero Rocher. I had never tried any of their …
Kashi Granola Bars
Kashi Granola Bars are an excellent source of Fiber (4g) and Protein (5g). A box of 8 bars will set you back about $3.29 and they are available with the other granola and cereal bars at a grocery store near you.
The best thing about the Kashi Granola bars …
Lyons Golden Syrup
Lyons Golden Syrup has long been used and loved in the homes and bakeries of Europe to add a rich, sweet flavor to their confections and recipes.
It has the thick consistancy of honey but has a rich, buttery sweetness that is distictly its own.
I have used this product in …

KFC Strawberry - Vanilla cookies Crusher
This product is new to KFC restaurants, at least in my part of the world, and as such, it is quite heavily advertised. Since I pass a KFC on my way to work, I sometimes stop by to have a snack, particularly on busy days, when I don’t have …
Eight O’clock Juice Powder
Eight O’clock Juice Powder is another delicious and cheaper alternative if you want to enjoy fruit juice. This powder juice is one of the most popular brands in the market. The orange flavor of Eight O’clock Juice Powder is comparatively better than that of Tang Juice Powder because it …
South Beach Diet Frozen Entree’s
I recently bought my first frozen diet food, and much to my surprise, it was actually very good. I purchased the South Beach Diet Frozen Entree with chicken and cheese tortillas with Sugar Free Jello. It came with sliced chicken, real cheese, mild sauce, and all wheat tortillas (which …
Coco jal mango tender coco water drink
The coco jal is the name of the drink, which is introduced in the market recently. This is the pure tender coconut water, which is flavoured and kept preserved and packed. This is a good drink, which tastes good and is an ideal drink for travelling. …
Chobani Greek Yogurt: Bite Raspberry with Dark Chocolate Chip
Chobani branded Greek yogurt is one of my favorites. Every chance I get, or when ever my neighborhood grocer is running a sale, I toss a few containers in my basket, all different flavors. Usually I get my favorite flavor, but this time I decided to try something new. …
Large Lemonade from McDonalds
Often while I’m out during the summer I get incredibly thirsty. Nor does it help any that the temperatures are hovering near ninety with high humidity. To top it off, I’m often walking on foot and that just makes me more parched than ever. I need a drink to …
Campbell’s Condensed Broccoli and Cheese Soup
Campbell’s Condensed Broccoli and Cheese Soup is the only one of the Campbell’s soups (that I can think of, at least) that you are supposed to cook with milk, not milk or water. There is a note on the back of the can, specifically stating so. I normally do …
McCormick Imitation Coconut Extract
I love the flavor of coconut. I love its rich and wonderful taste. I was in the grocery store looking for something that would give me a coconut flavoring when I saw this extract. I bought it to impart a coconut taste to a recipe I was making in …
Kellog’s Special K yogurt cereals
Cereals are always a good option in the mornings, as they’re good for the body and have a lot of fiber.
When I bought Kellog’s Special K yogurt cereals, they came in a 300 grams box.
These cereals are low in calories. When I hear that, I think immediately that the …
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Supreme Pizza Snacks
I’ll say one thing about Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Supreme Pizza Snacks, and that one thing is, they sure did manage to cram a variety of toppings into each and every one of these small snack bites! There’s cheese, tomato, pepperoni, sausage, onion, green pepper and perhaps another one …
Gatorade Frost: Glacier Cherry
Gatorade is the sports drinks that’s been around for over thirty years now. Generations have used the beverage to energize, recharge and of course play hard. There are the original flavors that everyone knows and loves and then there are the new collection of flavors that appear to different crowds. …
Campbell’s Chunky Jazzy Jambalaya soup
Continuing onward with my daily lunchtime soup odyssey, we have the next big member in the Campbell’s Chunky “starting line” of soups (AKA the official soup of the NFL, whatever the heck that means.) This time up, I’ve got in the lunch pail Campbell’s Chunky Soup Jazzy Jambalaya, our …
International Delight Liquid Coffee Creamer
When I do choose to drink coffee, I like to experiment with a variety of flavored coffee creamers. Usually I purchase powdered coffee creamers, but I decided try International Delight Hazelnut Liquid Coffee Creamer in Hazelnut flavor during a recent trip to the grocery store.
The flavor of International …
Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Minis
Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Minis is a meal that I know not everybody can stomach at breakfast time, but I find this breakfast item to really be quite flavorful and most certainly filling! Four come in a box and what they are is a boneless piece of chicken that rests between a …
Skippy Peanut Butter
When it comes to peanut butter, I am very particular about what I choose. I have eaten Skippy brand peanut butter since I can remember. I guess I just took my mother’s lead with it and very rarely tried other brands of Peanut Butter simply because I was used …
My Fruit Rollups
Okay, I may have found a snack that I just don’t understand. I’m too old, I’m sure. That has to be the reason. They say two year olds are often smarter than adults in handling technology. It’s like second nature to them. Well, maybe …
Betty Crocker - Triple Chunk Brownies
Betty Crocker - Triple Chunk Brownies are not for me. Although the brownies are most certainly rich in authentic chocolate flavor and while the brownies came out and stayed quite moist for several weeks, what I did not care very much for was the big chunks of Hershey’s kisses …
Selecta Coffee Almond Cookie Ice Cream
This is one of Selecta’s newest flavors added to their selection, the Coffee Almond Cookie is yet the best flavour I have tasted so far. Being a local brand and still managing to uphold their status and reputation by creating new delicious flavours make them a competitive and top …
OSK Japanese Green Tea, tea bags
After reading and hearing so much about the anti-oxidant, anti-aging and anti-cancer benefits of Green Tea, I decided to try it as well. Since I have a Japanese friend I thought who better to recommend me a good brand of green tea. In fact it is the Japanese …
