Michelinas Lean Gourmet Sweet and Sour Chicken
Michelinas Lean Gourmet Sweet and Sour Chicken was another one of their selections that I decided to give a try one day for lunch. I had moderate expectations, since I am no stranger to the brand of Michelinas or the dish of sweet and sour chicken.
On the label …
Priya pickles
The pickles give the great taste for meals. It is really very boring for the Indians particularly to have the meals without any pickle along with the meals. And when we talk about the pickles we must also talk about the priya pickles. Because the taste …
Mrs. Freshley’s Fudge Bake Brownie
I did not find anything all that special about Mrs. Freshley’s Fudge Bake Brownie. It tasted like a typical fudge brownie to me, which is both a good and a bad thing. It is a good thing because I like fudge brownies, so when I first tasted this fudge …
Yoplait Fat Free Creamy Strawberry Yogurt
A really delicious creamy strawberry yogurt I like to eat with some crunchy sweet granola is Yoplait Fat Free Creamy Strawberry Yogurt. It has a delicious strawberry flavor to it and a creamy smooth texture. It makes strawberry smoothies taste so good and makes awesome banana split sundaes.
The …
Chick-fil-A Hash Browns
Chick-fil-A Hash Browns are almost exactly like the hash browns served at Burger King. They are round and small and crispy. They have a good flavor to them and taste pretty much identical to McDonald’s and Burger King’s hash browns. Plus, they are not real greasy at all. I …
Clancy’s Reduced Fat Kettle Chips
Clancy’s Reduced Fat Kettle Chips come in a nine ounce bag for one dollar and ninety-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Due to the way they’re prepared, kettle chips cost more money than potato chips. They’re supposed to be a little easier on the body in terms of …
Thomas Original English Muffins
Thomas’ Original English Muffins are without a doubt the top of the line in store purchased English muffins. The muffins come in a tray of six, and the package of course touts the fact that the muffins are low fat, no cholesterol, and have no trans fat. The …
IGA Traditional Spaghetti Sauce
Spaghetti and meatballs are one of my favourite foods but I have always had trouble settling on a favourite store-bought spaghetti sauce and have never attempted to make my own after seeing how long it needs to simmer when making from scratch. It is unfortunate that I don’t get …
Parati Minueto Chocolate and Vanilla Wafers
Wafers are one of my favourite snacks to have and I always like to try new brands and flavours of wafers. Even when I find one I like I still tend to stray from it sometimes and this has proven to be a good thing because I would have …
Stouffer’s Pork Cutlet
Stouffer’s Pork Cutlet would be pretty bland if not for the toppings that are found on the pork cutlet. The pork cutlet itself is really pretty tasteless and dull, although it is fairly tender, so at least that is a plus. The toppings that I am referring to is …
Grilled Baja Chicken at O’Charley’s Restaurant
This delicious satisfying dish is sadly only offered during the summer months. But when it’s available, I made a mad dash for the door. There are a number of things that’s appealing about this dish. First, the price is very affordable for what you get. …
Ledo Butter Biscuit and wafer
I am a big fan of sweets but lately I realised that I don’t like too sweet stuff so now I prefer plain cookies than chocolate and similar stuff. But what I could never resist was and still is ice cream. I just adore ice cream. I went with …
Trader Joes Ice Cream Bon Bons
A few months ago, my husband picked these Trader Joes Ice Cream Bonbons up for me because he knew I liked ice cream and chocolate. I thought it was a sweet idea, but didn’t think too much of it and just put them in the freezer for later.
Now …
Burger King Onion Rings Snacks
I found these onion rings at the Dollar Tree one day and snatched them up in a heartbeat. I like the onion rings Burger King serves, and I was eager to see what the snack take on the flavorful side item was like. When I opened up the bag, …
Del Monte Red Grapefruit
As the name indicates, this is canned red grapefruit and nothing else. I bought it after trying (and liking) Del Monte’s Citrus Salad, where red grapefruit was one of three citrus ingredients. I enjoyed it there, so I bought this variety. Since I already knew what to expect, there …
Nesquik Strawberry Flavored Powder
Nesquik Strawberry flavored powder is a delicious way to get milkl in a person’s diet. While it does have some sugar in it compared to other starwberry flavorings the Nesquik Strawberry mix contains 25% less sugar.

Liver Spread Spaghetti
I don’t like cooking much. As a matter of fact I don’t even know how to fry or how to cook rice (so much for my womanly duties). I always stay away from the kitchen but I do watch alot of cooking shows both local and international (I especially …
Chowking Halo Halo
Most of us must have probably tried at least once the Halo Halo Fiesta of Chowking restaurant. Not that there is something special about it, honestly it is even more of an ordinary Filipino treat common even in the streets. Yes, this sweet dessert is available in most corners …

Chef Boyardee Microwaveable Spaghetti and Meatballs
A decade or so ago, I happened upon Chef Boyardee Microwaveable Spaghetti and Meatballs. Since I’m a kid at heart anyway, and since I loved their canned product of the same meal, I decided to give it a try. Anything that can save me cleanup gets my …
Almarai Mixed fruit juice
As this is the summer, we generally take more fruit juices to bear the heat. This time I brought home Almarai Mixed fruit juice. This is natural juice with concentration of various mixed fruits like apple , orange, pine apple, passion, guava, apricot, mango, banana and lime. The taste …
Vermont Maid Syrup
Vermont Maid Syrup is expensive and it is also not really spectacular in any sense of the word. The syrup has a decent flavor to it, although it is not as rich and delicious as the syrups made by Log Cabin and Mrs. Butterworth’s. The syrup is relatively thick, …
Nutriblend Coffee Mix
I love coffee but with all the commotion about its effects and its benefits I began to doubt if drinking coffee is good for me since so many articles have come out and say that coffee is not good for you then other articles would come out and say …
Dona concentrated fruit juice
Sometimes I buy concentrated fruit juices because they are less expensive and when it is about juice I don’t drink it very often but when I do I don’t like to spend a lot of money on it. Knowing that concentrated versions of cherry juices cost about 2 Euros …
Palermo’s Frozen Pizza
My husband is on the road a lot of the time for work. When he is home we have to have the full meal deal. When he is gone, my girls and I slack off in the cooking department. Like most kids, my girls like frozen pizza’s as well …

Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpets
Tastykake Butterscotch Krimpets were always my favorite out of the whole Tastykake line of baked goodies. I have eaten the peanut butter Kandy Kakes and the chocolate cup cakes, but I think there is something about the Butterscotch Krimpets that makes them the best. I love the flavor of …

Hershey’s Drops
I just discovered Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Drops at my local grocery store, Safeway. They are labeled on the package as new items by hershey and I have not seem them at many other stores. They are pretty much just drops of chocolate. The best way to describe …
McCormick Imitation Maple Extract
One day I was looking at recipes on the internet and I came across this maple nut cake with maple butter frosting. I was immediately saddened that I could not try this recipe as my country does not yet import the McCormick Imitation Maple Extract that both recipes called …
Flipz Milk Chocolate Pretzels
Flipz Milk Chocolate Pretzels is different from Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Pretzels in one single regard - the Flipz pretzels are coated with Nestle’s chocolate and the Hershey’s Milk Chocolate. How does that impact the flavor of the pretzels? Well, in my opinion, there is no noticeable difference. Maybe I …
Stouffer’s Pepperoni French Bread Pizza
Stouffer’s Pepperoni French Bread Pizza is not a variety of pizza that I care for all that much. It is not that I do not like pepperoni, quite the opposite really, but I do not find the pepperoni on this pizza to be too tasty at all. Yes, there …
Coco-Choco chrispy cream yogurt
I took this yogurt because I actually think it was stracciatella one, you know those white vanilla ones with chocolate chips, just when I got home I realised it was made of coconuts and not stracciatella, it was a small disappointment I must admit but as I like coconuts, …
Sweet Memories of Cebu Philippine Brand Mango Juice Nectar
I really enjoy this subtly sweet mango juice nectar, either chilled or at room temperature.
I find that this mango juice nectar is delicious straight from the can. I like that it is a thick juice that feels smooth going down my throat. I enjoy Philippine Brand Mango Juice Nectar …
Stouffer’s Spinach Soufflé
Stouffer’s Spinach Soufflé definitely has a rich and deep spinach flavor to it with every bite taken. If you are someone that really enjoys the flavor of spinach, then I most certainly think that you will enjoy this meal quite a lot! Admittedly, it is not quite as filling …
Schogetten Praline Noisettes chocolates
I am quite a fan of the Schogetten range of chocolate, which is easily available, at least in most of Europe, from Aldi and Lidl stores. In my case I tend to go to Aldi, but that is simply because it is the closer of the two to where …
Peanut Delight Natural Creamy Peanut Butter Spread
There are a lot of different flavors and varieties out there of peanut butter, and even saying that might be an understatement! Sometimes, too many choices can make making an actual choice quite hard and, sometimes, if you’re just looking for something simple, it can get lost among all …
Pillsbury Grands! Honey Butter Frozen Biscuits
I much prefer purchasing the bags of frozen Pillsbury biscuits over the biscuits that come in a canned roll because I love the convenience of being able to bake only the number of biscuits I want or think I will need. Fresh biscuits always taste better than biscuits that …
Great Value Fully Cooked Crispy Chicken Tenderloin Strips
The Great Value Fully Cooked Crispy Chicken Tenderloin Strips come in twenty-five ounce bag for six dollars. In each bag comes roughly sixteen chicken strips. They vary in size, with some strips being real long and other strips being on the short side. They are sold in one of …
M.Y San Sky Flakes

Hostess Powdered Donettes
I really have two favorite kinds of donuts — glazed and powdered. I suppose I’m overly loyal to what I grew up with and am a bit of a finicky eater (that’s an understatement, I’m certain), but give me a good glazed donut or a good powdered one, …
Chick-fil-A Chicken, Egg & Cheese Bagel
Chick-fil-A Chicken, Egg & Cheese Bagel is one of the few menu items from the Chick-fil-A fast food restaurant that I have actually been disappointed with and have no desire to purchase again. The reason I was disappointed with this sandwich is because I did not think that the …
Sinoloa Tortillas
Sinaloa tortillas are the best! Now, there has always been a monopoly on the tortilla market by a company known as Mission Tortillas. Simply put, they are not the best tortillas in the universe as you would think by the way every store in the universe seems …
Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Mini Fudge Brownie Bites
I am not so crazy about Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Mini Fudge Brownie Bites. Although they are decent, I personally prefer the frosted chocolate cupcakes that are made by Mrs. Freshley’s compared with these. I guess I just find these brownie bites to be somewhat dull in the flavor. There …
Crystal Geyser Alpine Spring water
I’ve never been a big believer that there were many differences between brands of bottled drinking water, with a few exceptions- but I found one last week that impressed me- not with its water, but the design of its packaging.
I was doing my usual supplemental shopping at …
