Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar PB Stix
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar PB Stix turned out to be quite the disappointment for me. The reason I found them to be disappointing is because the flavor was not what I was expecting. Since this is a low calorie snack food, the snack food itself suffers …
Nestle Pure Life Purified Water
I have tried almost every type of bottled water out there, at least the inexpensive ones. When I drink bottled water I look for one of two things. I either want a water that has somewhat of a processed taste. This means that I can actually taste that it …

Spelt directly as above Maple Leaf has come out with the most amazing frozen fish dinner! This Tilapia In Garlic & Herb Sauce is an amazing 500gram product that you can find in the frozen food section of your local supermarket. Recently I was browsing in my local market, …
Algida Carte d’Or Chocolate with orange
Algida always has great ice creams and they are not very expensive, the price goes 3.50 Euro to 5 Euro. Sometimes I even manage to find them for 2.80 Euro when they are on discount but that’s not very often. I am talking about 500g containers of regular Algida …
Squeezed for you Calamansi Extract
The last time I commented on the same kind of product but of different brand, I had to be really mean because I have nothing good to say about the product except that it was cheap. Well, computing and thinking about it, this product is also cheap because it …
Nescafe Ice Ready to drink mix
I have tried yet another product of Nescafe called the Nescafe Ice. This is intended to be a cold coffee drink that coffee drinkers may also enjoy. I bought a box of the Nescafe ready to mix drink for about a dollar and a half in a box of …
Kellogg’s Special K Pastry Crisps Chocolatey Caramel
Pastry Crisps are a new addition to the Kellogg’s Special K line of products. I noticed them recently on the shelves down the cereal, breakfast bars and breakfast foods aisle at Walmart for two dollars and fifty cents a box. A box contains ten pastry crisps and considering the …

During Max Fried Chicken’s recent 65th anniversary promo, everyone went crazy lining up to avail the promo. The promo entitled entitles a person to unlimited Max Fried Chicken everyday from 6-10PM until July 17, 2010 for the price of P165. The amount billed to you is exactly …
Cafe Breton’s Strawberry Short Dessert Crepe
Today I just made a review about the gourmet crepe that I loved. I will continue it with another good dish from the same restaurant café Breton. Café Breton serves both gourmet and dessert crepes so I was lucky enough to try one of each type. For the dessert …
Supreme Tradition Imitation Vanilla Extract
It’s the time of the year where kitchens across the country are filled with baking items and materials that go into and are used to make tasty holiday treats. Making Christmas cookies and other assorted goodies can run into some serious money, so it’s important to shop around and …
Corona Extra 330 ml
My room mate and I both agree, Corona Extra beer is the best beer in the world, in terms of taste. It’s made in Mexico and this country sure knows how to make a good beer. I used to think that San Miguel Beer, made in the Philippines, …
Tesco Value Strawberries
I fancied getting in some strawberries and cream to serve to some guests I had recently and as I was a bit strapped for cash I was tempted to buy a big 400g tub of strawberries from the Tesco Value range. They were only £1.50 which is very …
Ferino’s Extra Super Bibingka
Ferino’s Bibingka is one of the more famous bibingkas stalls in Manila. Bibingkas are rice cakes which are baked using charcoal and pugon leaves and are especially popular during the Christmas season as it is associated with simbang gabi (Christmas masses). It is best consumed right after …
Jacobs Monarch instant cofee Kraft
I started drinking coffee when I was about 20 years old because I had exams at University. I usually take mocha coffee but about a month ago I started experimenting with instant coffee powders. On of those that I’ve tried was Jacobs Monarch instant coffee Kraft. It comes in …
Yoplait fibersure yogurt
I purchased Yoplait Fibersure Yogurt this week for the first time when I found it on a very good sale at my grocery store. The first thing I noticed was that the yogurts are very small. Unlike most yogurts which are 6 ounces, these were only 4 …
Rockstar Energy Drink
As far as I’m concerned, Rockstar Energy Drink is the one. It’s basically Red Bull in a bigger can and same taste. I even like the hefty size of the can, since it makes me feel like I’m pretty badass and really getting something for my money …
Krusteaz Pie Crust Mix
Krusteaz Pie Crust Mix is not a pie mix that I will be purchasing a second time. I wish that I had not purchased it the first time really because it ended up detracting from the pie that I made. What exactly is so bad about this pie crust? …
Roasted Tomato & Olive Oil Triscuits
I am a fan of crackers generally, and since I was a kid, I have loved Triscuits. For health reasons, I usually try to buy whole grain crackers, so that if I am snacking, I am at least not eating high-fat junk food. I try to mix it up …
Kroger Marshmallow Treasures
Kroger Marshmallow Treasures are very similar to Lucky Charms. The two cereals are so close in taste that I do not believe I could tell the difference if I were blindfolded. Both cereals have marshmallow pieces in addition to the regular unflavored pieces. The major difference is the price, …
Simply Organic Pure Vanilla Extract
Vanilla extract or vanilla bean seems to be such an unimportant thing, when you see it in the list of ingredients, but it’s not and there’s a big difference between the vanilla flavor or Vanillin and the real vanilla extract. I didn’t realize that until I actually got myself …
The Granny Goose Tortillos Cheese Flavor
I’m a regular eater of Granny Goose Tortillos Chees Flavor, as well as other Granny Goose snack products. I usually crave for chips at night, and when I’m on a junk food binge, this chips is always at hand..my cupboard just never runs out of it. …
Shorty’s BBQ
Shorty’s BBQ is one of the best places to eat in Toledo. Anytime family or friends from out of town visit, we always take them on a trip to Shorty’s. The service is excellent, and the staff is friendly. The first thing you notice at Shorty’s is the smell—¦ …
Duncan Hines Perfect Size For 1 Confetti Mug Cake Mix
I love reading food blogs which is how I first came into the knowledge of cake mugs. The theory behind cake mugs is you create a cake batter cut down to fit inside of a mug or any microwavable cup. You then cook the batter in the microwave for about …
Willy Wonka SweeTarts Candy
How I got interested in Sweetarts was that when I was little, on Christmas day at my cousin’s house, there used to be a large red sock hanging on the bottom of the stairs filled with candy. Some of that candy was a brand of candy I loved that …
Bigelow Cozy Chamomile Herb Tea
When I am really stressed out or can’t sleep one of my favorite herbal teas to drink is Bigelow Cozy Chamomile Herb Tea. I love these herbal tea because I find it really soothing and calming and I like the fact that it doesn’t contain any caffeine or chemicals …
Marie Callender’s Country Fried Chicken & Gravy
Marie Callender’s Country Fried Chicken & Gravy is another product I tried recently for the first time. While this variety isn’t a new one for Marie Callender’s, it was on sale, and I noticed that the gravy was provided in a pouch instead of mixed in.
I am not …
Aquafina Bottled Water
Aquafina Bottled water has a fine product but I won’t be buying this until they change the bottle design! The bottle is nothing short of horrible! It is virtually impossible to open it without it leaking and not just a drop or two..it leaks a lot. I’ve …
Kellogg’s Froot loops
Kellogg’s Froot loops is a loop shaped breakfast cereal made with maize, wheat and barley. I bought this for my toddler who likes most home made foods. This cereal is colorful with fruit flavors. My baby used to eat because of the shapes, but now eats just one or …
Eggo Pancakes
Eggo Pancakes make it possible to have great pancakes without the mess of making batter and frying them in your frying pan. I really like these pancakes just because they areeasy to transport, and taste great.
They come in a box just like you would get waffles in and come …
Hormel Chili - no beans
One of the canned foods that I recently discovered was Hormel Chili. I’d never really thought about eating chili that wasn’t homemade, but my husband enjoys Hormel chili, so I thought I’d try it. I had to go with the no beans chili (I love that Hormel …
Santa Fe Enchilada Bowl: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
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 …
Appleton Jamaica Rum Cream
The first time I was familiar with run cream was when I saw one of my parents having a glass of some when we went out when I was little. However, I was not allowed to even taste it since it was a strong alcoholic beverage. Nevertheless, out of …
Cher-Make Sausage Company Brand Bratwurst
Product Description: Pack of 9 bratwurst from the Cher Make Sausage Company out of Manitowoc, WI. I found this at our local Piggly Wiggly store last night for about $6.50.
What I liked about this product: First of all, the price was actually pretty reasonable for this brand. In comparison, …
Jelly Belly Lollibeans
I fully admit to having a love of Jelly Belly jellybeans. They were the first (and maybe only) company to make Dr. Pepper flavored jellybeans and they have a lot of flavors that you just can’t find anywhere else. They are now making suckers, which they call Lollibeans. I …
White Fudge Covered Oreos
I love oreos and I have always seen white fudge covered oreos being sold. I love white chocolate personally but is is obviously the sweetest “chocolate” you can get out there and I actually wondered if white fudge would be just a bit too sweet (compared to chocolate) to …
Hershey’s Kisses
It is one of my favorite chocolate treats. Although I am moderating my intake of sweets for health reason, if there’s Hershey’s Kisses, I just can’t resist the temptation to indulge myself.
What I love …
Lean Cuisine’s Deep Dish Pizza
Are you looking for a tasty frozen lunch that is relatively healthy for you if you are dieting? Well then Lean Cuisine has a great option for you. Their deep dish pepperoni and sausage pizza is a great choice for those of you that are looking to enjoy pizza …
Smuckers Peanut Butter and Honey Sandwiches
I am a peanut butter and jelly lover. It’s an easy to make sandwich that I can eat on the go and goes great for any time of the year or with any meal. When I am on the go, I grab a Smucker’s Peanut Butter sandwich that are …
Sainsbury’s Cornflakes
I generally eat cereal at breakfast time, rather than go to the time and trouble of preparing anything more complex such as a cooked meal, but all I really ask of that cereal is that it be reasonably well made and tasty. Sainsbury’s Cornflakes are not quite as nice …
Ham and Cheese Sandwich from Target’s Lunch Counter
The other day I stopped off at Target’s in-store lunch counter while running errands in the area. I had skipped breakfast that day so I was pretty hungry. In the past they had some decent sandwiches and on occasion I would buy one from them. Alas, those days are …
Lawlers Lemon Blast Pre Sliced Cheesecake
Of all the deserts in the world cheesecake has to rank at the top of my favorites list. I absolutely love cheesecake and am willing to try just about any variation that I can find. One of my favorite variations combines two deserts that I really enjoy …
Pringles Potato Chips (Original flavor)
Chips is one of the junk foods that we can’t avoid. Since this is one of the less nutritious foods, it’s very important for us to have a minimal consumption of it. I seldom eat chips, but Pringles Potato Chips is really one of my favorites. Its thinly cut …
Adobe Chicken Burrito
I have to admit that I am absolutely addicted to these burritos. Willy’s was once a place that I passed by without a second thought. But one day, my company had lunch catered in. We were allowed to make our own burritos or tacos …
Little Debbie Stars & Stripes Snack Cakes Vanilla
I personally prefer these Little Debbie Stars & Stripes Snack Cakes Vanilla variety to the chocolate variety because I find the vanilla flavor to be rich and more delicious. I really enjoy, so I suppose that should not come as a surprise. I like that these cakes have a …
Count Chocula energy drink
Count Chocula energy drink is an energy drink based on the hugely popular Count Chocula cereal. It is a chocolate energy drink and is quite similar in taste to the Mars energy drinks, or a regular chocolate milk shake. I decided to try one the other day, as the …
Stouffer’s Fettuccini Alfredo
Stouffer’s Fettuccini Alfredo is a decent pasta meal that I purchase from time to time. There is nothing too special about this meal though, and that is why I do not purchase it too regularly. There is nothing at all wrong with the noodles and the sauce that goes …
Private Selection Sparkling Soda - 11.1 Fl Oz.
I try not to drink anything with High Fructose Corn Syrup in it, or too many artificial flavorings, so sometimes finding soda I can drink can be quite a task. I tried Private Selection Sparkling Soda (Lime-Cranberry) out because I saw bottles of it at the store and it …
Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream
I had no plans to buy ice cream when I first entered Tesco, but this Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream caught my eye because of the vibrant packaging and the fact Ben & Jerry’s is a famous name in ice cream. I had picked up the one with …
Rombauer Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
I don’t consider myself a professional when it comes to evaluating wine. However, I do live in California and I have I think been exposed wine tastings and enjoyed different wines over the last ten years. I do think my palette has developed in that time.
My boyfriend brought this …
Blue Bunny Vanilla Ice Cream, not for those with allergies
For the allergic in this world, eating ice cream isn’t exactly an easy thing. I was born with the peanut/tree nut allergy and always have to be vigilant when buying food especially ice cream. Since the FDA requires allergen labeling it’s gotten a lot easier for sure, …
