Nakd Wildly Different Apple Pie Muesli Bar
I do not know why this muesli-style snack bar is referred to as —˜Apple Pie’ as it has nothing to do with apple pies. It is a rather different kind of very healthy snack bar that I was surprised to find I enjoyed as I do not actually …
Mrs. Field’s Cookies
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 …
Your Best Face (YBF) Defend
I was so lucky when I won a promo during our neighboring supermarket’s anniversary. Although YBF products are quite unfamiliar to me, I gave it a try that it might have some nice results.
I was really hesitant to apply it at first knowing that I have no experiences with …

Marie Callender’s Rigatoni Marinara Classico
Marie Callender’s has a bunch of new flavors out for their Fresh Flavor Steamer line. I’ve tried a couple of the original ones and wasn’t that impressed, but these new flavors sounded enticing, so I began with Rigatoni Marinara Classico which, per the package, is “Rigatoni in a …
Henry Weinhard’s Root Beer
Henry Weinhard’s Root Beer is something I get from time to time, but those are rare times, mostly because it just cost so darn much. This is considered a big time treat for me, and as a result, I really only buy the product once or twice a …
Sculpey Glaze Gloss
This is great glaze for a finishing touch on pieces made with clay! Basically, once I’m done baking my clay items and am finished with it, the clay feels a little rough. To give that finishing touch that I want with everything, I just put some of the Sculpey …
Chick-fil-A Chargrilled & Fruit Salad
The Chick-fil-A Chargrilled & Fruit Salad might just be about the healthiest menu item that can be ordered at this fast food restaurant. I tried this salad dish once and I likely will not order it again because it just is not something that I can see myself looking …
Danone Activia

When I went to pick the pack I came to know the Activia yogurt are available in two different packs of 4 and 8 pots I bought pack of 8 which was free …
Maple Leaf Pork Roast with Apples & Cinnamon
I have always been a fan of Canadian Maple Leaf meat products. I had never purchased one of their ready-to-go dinners, as I usually prefer to make a roast from scratch. Needing a quick meal for guests that were showing up in only one hour, I quickly purchased Maple …

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 …
Tata Tea
Tata tea is a very good tea and it is very famous in India. It is very popular especially in south India. The tea is very special in taste because the tea powder is mixed with the tealeaves and some good flavours. The taste of this …
Ferrero Rocher Chocolates
The sight of Ferrero Rocher - with its trademark gold foil wrapping - never fails to make my mouth water. I’ve loved this chocolate ever since I first tasted it in elementary school. I didn’t even know what it was called then. I just referred to it as the …
Food Club Blueberry Waffles
My daughter loves blueberry waffles and, since they are the only thing I can get her to eat before school each morning, I usually keep a box in the freezer.
I recently bought a box from the brand Food Club and honestly have not been overly impressed with it.
First of …

Sunkist Solar Fusion
I just tried the new Sunkist Solar Fusion and I am not a fan. This new Sunkist variety which is slightly darker in color, and sports a vibrant yellow, orange and blue swirled label is kinda awful.
I don’t know if you remember tasting liquid medicine …

Kroger 100% Grated Parmesan Romano Cheese
This grated cheese sold at Kroger is every bit as flavorful as the grated Parmesan and Romano cheeses put out by name brand companies like Kraft and it comes at a cheaper price of around two dollars and fifty cents. When I add this cheese to a pasta meal, …
Pringles Multigrain Crisps Creamy Ranch
Of the three Pringles multigrain flavors out right now, this is probably my least favorite, although really, it wasn’t too bad. What I didn’t care for was the ranch flavor of the chip. Now that might sound odd because why would I spend a dollar seventy five for a …
Honey Nut Cheerios
I was never much of breakfast person before, but recently I acquired a strong liking for a bowel of Honey Nut Cheerios in the morning during the week. I heard about what it could do to my health from my local news station and decided that since it tasted …

I am a tea lover. Well, you can even call me a tea addict. I love my cup of tea. There is in fact not a time when I would have refused a offer for tea and my day does not feel right if I didn’t start …
MaraNatha Almond Butter
I love Almond Butter. It is a special treat that hits the spot and kills sugar cravings for me. There is one problem and that is the price. I generally see prices range from $5.99 to $13.99 for a 12oz (340g) container. I purchased MaraNatha Almond butter partly …
Tesco Crumpets
These crumpets from Tesco’s own range are very good value indeed at only 79 pence for a packet of twelve. Because I like to root around on the ‘reduced price’ shelves at Tesco, I managed to get a packet today for only 40 pence so I am even …
Jell-o Gelatin - Lime
Jell-o Gelatin - Lime variety is a flavor that I like to have every now and then. The company did a pretty impressive job taking the lime flavor and injecting it into this gelatin! The lime flavor is quite authentic and real, and the flavoring does not at all …
Kraft Velvetta Mexican Mild Cheese

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 …
Weight Watchers Spicy Tomato and Basil Puff Balls
This is a new product that I have just tried and I will keep buying them. there is a couple of flaws with these, but nothing all that bad to stop me buying them.
I only saw these when I was recently in Poundland. In my local Supermarket I hadn’t …
Dak Ham
This ham is perfect for anyone with a small food budget like myself. I can buy some wheat tortillas, eggs, sour cream, hot sauce and Dak Ham and be fed for the week for under fifteen dollars. The ham itself is pretty salty, so I wouldn’t recomend eating it …
Kohinoor Basmati Rice
I like the presence of rice most in my meal. In fact, I belong to an area which is the best in the production of rice. Nowadays, when I am shifted to the metro, there obviously I cannot hope to get rice from my native place.
The solution is in …
Quorn Beef Style Burgers
Truth is, I only buy them because they are one pound for two burgers. Thats 22 grams of protein for one pound, cheaper than a couple of cans of tuna. I microwave them in two minutes and serve wedged in a pitta burger.
Quorn is microprotein, made of a type …
Hostess Donettes - Chocolate
These Hostess Donettes - Chocolate variety are downright terrible! The chocolate flavor that coats these donuts really does not taste like chocolate at all! What happened to the rich and delicious chocolate used for the Hostess Cupcakes, Suzy Q’s, Ding Dongs and similar products? This chocolate tastes like some …
Emeril’s All Natural Vodka Sauce (Pasta Sauce)
I’m not a big fan of store-bought pasta sauce, but this is one of my favorites. Although it still seems to have a bit too much tanginess to it, as is the problem with most store-bought sauces, it has good flavor and it’s not too expensive.
Emeril’s sauces are a …
Clancy’s Cheese Extreme Cheese Snack Mix

Hamlet The Cigar
I am not a cigar smoker who has the —˜packet habit’. That term may not mean anything to you, but it’s a symptom of cigarette smokers’ behaviour. They have that little packet out of their pocket with great regularity and out comes another coffin nail. Cigar smokers tend to …
Archer Farms Muesli Cereal
A few days ago I bought a container of this cereal from Target. I say container because it does not come in a box but in an oval stiff-sided contraption with a hard plastic lid. I admit to being attracted to the image of the cereal on the front …
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar
I had high hopes that the Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Nutty Bar would solve the problem of excessive amounts of calories found in the original Little Debbie Snacks Nutty Bar while still retaining the excellent and delicious flavor. Unfortunately, my hopes were shot down when I tried one …
Chunky Kit Kat Bars
When I first came across a Chunky Kit Kat bar I was skeptical of how it would eat. Simply because I was so accustomed to the little package that contain those four small sticks of chocolate covered wafers in them. I felt as if making it such a size …
