Quaker is known for its variety of breakfast and snack foods that not only promise health but also promise great taste as well. With their box of instant apple cinnamon oatmeal packets, there is no doubt that it has made breakfast very simple, but the flavor is not that …
La Croix Sparkling Water
I have consumed sodas most of my life. In an effort to restrict my calorie intake, I switched from sweetened soft drinks to artificially sweetened soft drinks but I reevaluated that decision as I investigated the use of artificial sweeteners. It seems, according to several studies, that artificial sweeteners …
Gilbey’s Premium Strength with Green Tea Extract
My boyfriend excitedly told me that there was a new drink released by Gilbey’s that doesn’t taste like beer, and he thinks I should try it, since he knows really well that I hate beers. He described the bottle to me, and when I went to the Liquor store …
Chex Mix Muddy Buddies Cookies and Cream
Let’s start off by saying that I am a picky, very picky eater. I seldom try new foods when they show up on the store shelf. I like my tried and true foods that I have eaten for years. The only reason that I tried these was because my …
Silk Pure Almond Milk: Original
As a fan of silk products I wasn’t hesitant in trying Silk Pure Almond Milk: Original. I’ve previously tried the vanilla flavored one and absolutely loved it. For a while I hadn’t considered that there was actually an original flavor until I saw it one day in the store. …
Denny’s Country-Fried Steak & Eggs
When my boyfriend and I were in Los Angeles to view an art exhibit, we decided to stop at Denny’s for a cheap breakfast. We decided to share the Country-Fried Steak & Eggs because it sounded like too much food for one person —“ two steaks with gravy, …
Podravka Ketchup
I really like ketchup but I can’t eat every ketchup because I really don’t like those sweet ones which don’t even taste like ketchup. I’ve tried a lot of different ketchups in my life and I hated more of them than I liked them. Even some of the very …
Truvia Sweetener
My family has a long history with diabetes. Three of my grandparents had it the moment they died, and the other one I have left has it as well. Along with several of my aunt and uncles from both sides of my family. So obviously I need to be …
Hawaiian Punch Lemon Berry Squeeze Juice
I remember always drinking Hawaiian Punch as child. My favorite flavor was lemon berry squeeze and I loved the taste and the fruitiness. I always drunk it when I was thirsty, but as an adult now, I don’t favor it much as I used to. Hawaiian Punch is very …
Adobo
Do you know what “adobo” is? It’s actually a Filipino dish which is a soy sauce based meat recipe. Does it good? Well for me it is cause I’m a Filipino and I grew up with it. People from outside my country may think this will be another scary …
Friendly Farms All Natural Almond Milk Chocolate
Almond milk is a wonderful substitute to have in place of traditional dairy milk. In many respects, it’s a healthier, albeit a little pricier, alternative, that’s great to have if one doesn’t mind the somewhat nutty taste that it has. It is made from almonds after all, so it’s …
HG Cherry Cake
I went to one shop the other day with my sister and we saw this HG Cherry Cake. We were thinking to buy it but as we already eat a bunch of sweet stuff we preferred to take something salty. Then when we came home, after dinner we wanted …
Kellogg’s Apple Jacks Cereal
Kellogg�s apple jack cereal has a very fruity and sweet taste to it. I noticed when I poured the milk on it that the almost immediately the milk turned colors. I bought the fifteen ounce box of the cereal. Compared to the store brand of the …
Aquafina Bottled Water
I love a tall cold glass of water in the steamy summer months of the south. Here in Tennessee, it gets quite hot and the humidity makes it feel even worse. So, a cold drink of water is a refreshing treat on those heated days.
One of my favorite brands …
Keebler Ready Crust Graham Pie Crust
Keebler Ready Crust Graham Pie Crust is made from a company that I trust for most things. I can make a mean graham pie crust from scratch, but sometimes you just do not have the time to do so. Keebler Ready Crust Graham Pie Crust makes it so simple …
Mrs. Freshley’s Lemon Pie
I am really very pleased with Mrs. Freshley’s Lemon Pie, with the exception of the crust, but the crust is bad regardless of which flavor variety I purchase, quite unfortunately. What pleases me about this lemon pie is the lemon filling. Boy is it ever delicious! The lemon filling …
Cafe Georg’s Old Fashioned Banana Cake
A family friend brought us the Old Fashioned Banana Cake from Café Georg, which is a popular café in Cebu City, Philippines. The banana cake was actually a loaf which was already sliced evenly into slices that were just right; not too thin, not too thick. It …
Pepperidge Farm Texas Toast Parmesan
No other company that manufactures and sells Texas Toast in my area carries anything similar to this flavor of Texas Toast made by Pepperidge Farm. I tried this Texas Toast once and I was real impressed with the flavor of it. This Texas Toast has a parmesan topping that …
Compliments Sensations Double Chocolate Truffle Hot Chocolate
My family and I buy a lot of the Compliments line of food products and the Compliment Sensations are a new more up market line of foods. When the Double Chocolate Truffle Hot Chocolate came available I quickly bought it even though the price was a little steep at …
Jell-o Gelatin - Peach

Maruchan Ramen Roast Chicken Soup

Folgers Gourmet Selections Vanilla Biscotti
I reveived a sample of Folgers new Gourmet coffee in Vanilla Biscotti earlier this week. The sample from folgers was enough for a whole pot of coffee, very generous. THe coffee had a very rich and s very rich flavor, the vanilla was very distinct taste in …
Ghirardelli Luxe Milk chocolate bar with hazelnut
Ghirardelli is well known for their chocolates. They’re a step above Heresy’s chocolates but not quite at the level of Godiva’s chocolates, which I honestly think is extremely over priced after trying it. Ghirardelli makes some fine chocolate bars and brownie mixes. Recently they’ve come out with a new …
Kroger Lite Vanilla Yogurt
This is one of my favorite yogurt flavors to enjoy during the day! Vanilla is a flavor that I often times can’t seem to get enough of, and this vanilla yogurt from Kroger is simply delicious. There’s a very rich vanilla taste despite the fact that it’s a fat …
Tesco Value Low Fat Strawberry Yoghurt
I tried the ‘Low Fat Strawberry Yoghurt’ from Tesco’s Value range for the first time. I am open-minded about their ‘Value’ range as some products are not so bad. I would not expect this to be on a par to more expensive yoghurts as it is a …
Crush Grape Soda
I ultimately decided to try Crush Grape after having positive results with their original flavor called Crush Orange. My neighborhood Albertson was running a sale on two liter bottles of Crush Grape for a $1.69. Now when it comes to fruit flavored soda, I tend to go initially for …
Sbarro’s Baked Ziti
Whenever I’m having a bad hair day, a stressful time after exams week, sad and depressed about some aspects of my life, I get my comfort from the food I eat. One of my favorite comfort food is Sbarro’s Baked Ziti with white sauce, a slice of their Hawaiian …
Jacobs Twiglets
My mum used to buy Twiglets for us kids all the time but it occurred to me recently that I had not had them for years. So I had them for the first time after a long hiatus and I still find them gorgeous. Twiglets are twig-shaped …
Grizz Red Wine
Yet another primo find at my local Grocery Outlet, Grizz Red is a Washington State wine delivered in a screwtop — since that’s the next big wave of wine is the screwtop. I found it for $2.99 and thought, well I can cook with it if it’s horrible. …
I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter Spray
The primary reason that I started purchasing this spray was to use it when I or someone in the house had corn on the cob. It is much easier to spray button onto corn on the cob as opposed to try and spread it with a knife. That can …
Appy fizz
I like Appy brand of artificial apple juice very much, primarily because of its royal taste. So when I heard about the new product by Appy Appy Fizz,, I decided to giver it arty as well. But this one tastes awful. It tastes more like a …
Tesco Kick Energy Drink
This is the Supermarket Tesco’s version of the brand name version of an Energy Drink. I do sometimes drink the brand name version but it is so expensive compared to the Supermarket ones.
This comes in the same 250ml tin and cost 43p. Sometimes this can be on offer …
Pan di Stelle chocolate rolls, Mulino Bianco
Mulino Bianco is a very popular Italian brand; they make mostly bread, biscuits but different kind of rolls too. The other day my sister wanted to try Pan di Stelle chocolate rolls, we don’t usually buy similar stuff because they just make you fat because they are sweet and …

Publix Rotisserie Chicken
I love rotisserie chicken. To me, it is much more flavorful than any roast chicken that I have ever made at home. I like to eat it when I go out to restaurants that specialize in rotisserie chicken. However, I do not have a restaurant of that …
Gia Anchovy Paste
I am always looking for a way to spice up recipes, so I bought Gia Anchovy Paste in a 60gram squeeze tube at my local supermarket. I�m not a big fan of anchovies in a can, but this paste was just the thing I was looking for, for a …
A&W Teen Burger
I don’t usually like the bigger burgers that the fast food chains offer, like McDonald’s Big Mac or the Burger King Whopper, not that they’re not good, but they’re just so big that I often opt for a smaller version of those burgers, but I don’t do this with …
Del Monte Fruit Chillers
I purchased Del Monte’s Fruit Chillers Freeze and Eat tubes and am so glad that I did because they taste just like those yummy freeze and eat popsicles that we ate as kids. You know, the ones that were 100% sugar? The great thing about these is …
Nestle Coffee Mate Coffee Whithener
My coffee time will never be satisfying without my Nestle Coffee Mate creamer. I know it’s fattening some says. But drinking coffee is the only pleasure I give to myself in between housechores, work and errands. There was a time when I ran out of Coffee …
Tropical Grove Orange Blend Cocktail
Good fruit drinks are not easy to find. I have tried Fruitopia, Allen’s, Minute Maid, and now Tropical Grove. I purchased a pack of the Tropical Grove Orange Blend Cocktail series fruit drink. I have been looking for natural fruit drinks for a while. I find that many of …
Instant Fish Cracker
Instant Fish Cracker is made of fresh fish and flour. This is the junk food I like most. Though I like to eat fish cracker very much, but I am always lazy to fry it. It is consumable time process until I found this instant fish …
Chunkee Chewy Soft Cookies
I am reviewing another food. And this time its a soft chewy cookies. Chunkee cookies are proudly made in the Philippines(that’s what it says in the pack). These cookies are soft so it is mistaken that it is not fresh anymore.
What I like:
> I love the taste. I love …

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 …
Valley View Garlic Mashed Potatoes
We had steak last night and, to go with it, made some garlic mashed potatoes from the brand Valley View; a brand I believe we ended up buying at our local Aldi store or some other discount grocer.
I have had other products from Valley View with some mixed results …
Kroger Brand Fruity Pops
I am most certainly a popsicle addict. But I like popsicle flavors that are a little “outside the box”, not your traditional Cherry, Grape, and Orange. So, when I perused the frozen food aisles at my local Kroger several years ago, and found banana popsicles, …
Eagle Brand Sweetend condensed milk
I have used Eagle Brand sweetend condensed milk for 30 years- yes I was a child cooking with my mother when it started and I think our favorite recipe was and still is the seven layer bars. For some reason my sister called them chippy dippys, I still dont …
Deer park pomegranate essence
I bought this water to try it out. As soon as I tried it I knew I didn’t like it. It taste nasty and also smells nasty. The best way I know how to explain it is that it smells and taste kind of like beer, it kind of …
