New York Style - Baked Bagel Chips Garlic
New York Style - Baked Bagel Chips Garlic disappointed me immensely because I did not feel there was anywhere near sufficient garlic seasoning on these chips to justify calling them garlic. Sure, there is a garlic flavor to be tasted, but it is not remarkable in the slightest. It …
Roseland Center Cut Pork Chops
I feel that the Roseland Center Cut Pork Chops are of high quality because of the flavor they offer and the tenderness of the pork chops when I cut and bite into them. These pork chops aren’t dull in taste and I don’t really add much to them, so …

Chick-fil-A Biscuit
Chick-fil-A Biscuit is just that: a biscuit. Nothing comes on it and nothing comes with it. I order one on occasion to go with some other breakfast item at the fast food restaurant because I personally think that Chick-fil-A has just about the best biscuits out of any of …

McDonald’s southern style chicken

Dannon Activia Blueberry Cheesecake Dessert Yogurt
I am a fan of Dannon Activia Yogurt, and I am mostly a fan of every flavor, and while I found the Blueberry Cheesecake dessert flavor to taste good, it disappointed me because it not taste like Blueberry Cheesecake. It tasted more like the original blueberry flavor that Dannon …

Todai Seafood & Sushi Buffet in Puente Hills Mall
Todai Seafood Buffet…where do I start? Okay, I’ll start by giving the bottom line: this place is amazing. Before coming, I was a little skeptical that an all-you-can-eat Japanese buffet would be any good; most Asian buffets fall flat in the flavor department and are overpriced. True …
Blue Bunny Chocolate Ice Cream Sundae Crunch Bar

V8 V-Fusion Peach Iced Tea
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 …

There are so many instant coffees out there on the market to choose from. My favorite is General Foods International French Vanilla Café. It cost roughly from $2.99 to $3.29 per 9 oz can. The can may last you 2 weeks if you drink only 1 cup a day. …

Kellogg’s Frosted Rice Krispies Cereal

Chick-fil-A Chicken Breakfast Burrito is something that might be a tad rich for some people when it comes to breakfast.
