Little Debbie Swiss Rolls
I recently bought a box of Little Debbie Swiss Rolls for the first time in years! They were just as good as I remembered them. For those who can not picture what a swiss roll is, they are small round and long chocolate cakes filled with cream. …
Florida’s Finest Chocolate Creamy Coconut Patties
Florida’s Finest box of Creamy Coconut patties are a delicious combination of coconut and chocolate in a delicate square patty that is packed with flavor and sold in Florida souvenir shops or even the clothing store Bells. This product sells for a varied price depending on where you purchase …
Texas Grill Chicken Melt Plate
I am a big fan of Waffle House. There are tons of them in GA, seemingly on every corner. When I first started eating there, it was all about the eggs, bacon, and waffles—that is until I started trying the other sandwiches that they have on the …
Maggie tomato sauce
I have tasted much kind of tomato sauces but the Maggie tomato sauce is totally different. Its taste is unique and comparatively the price is not too much high and it can be very much affordable. It comes in many flavours but the regular or the normal …
Chicken Wings by Flaming Wings
I love chicken barbecue so much but this time, I have to taste another dish.
My officemate treated the whole team with buckets of chicken which includes assorted parts like wings and legs. There are several flavors and my first three picks are: Wild, Smokey Barbecue and Original. These chicken …
Pepsi Throwback
Ah the glories of the soft drink known as Pepsi. Back in the early 90’s,there was Crystal Pepsi which was as clear as water, no artificial coloring was added to it. Then along came Cherry Pepsi. Then in the early 2000’s, Pepsi with lime hit the scene. The newest …
San Remo Macaroni and Cheese (Instant)
Some would say I’m a Macaroni and Cheese freak. I’ve sampled just about all of Kraft’s different variants. For me, a good serving has a hint of sharp cheddar. When I saw that San Remo had their own little packet of instant mac and cheese, I just had …
Eating Right Cranberry Almond Bran Cereal
This cereal is good, but it’s just too pricey to purchase unless it’s on sale or there is a coupon for it. It only comes in a thirteen ounce box and Tom Thumb, the only place I’ve seen it, wants over three dollars and fifty cents for a box. …
Arby’s
Aside from seafood my favorite food would have to be roast beef, and that is mainly one reason why I like eating at Arby’s. I can go there and expect to eat quality roast beef sandwiches for a very reasonable price. The horse radish sauce they include with the …
Falcon Chicken and Cheese Sausages
My hubby and I bought this ready to fry Chicken and Cheese sausage at the grocery store in Malad where we do our weekly grocery. I often do include in my list to buy food stuff which are easy to prepare especially if I don’t have enough time to …
Chobani Greek Yogurt
I have intended to try some of the “Greek” style yogurts I’ve seen in grocery stores the last year, but was afraid I might not like them as well as the tradional brands I am used to. I was afraid they might be sour or “too natural” tasting.
When I …
Nescafe 3-in-1 Coffee Intense
After typhoon Ondoy forced my family to temporarily leave the place we grew up in (my house needed extensive renovation), I had to also temporarily refrain from my little pleasures in life, such as brewed coffee. Thus, I experimented with different kinds of instant coffee, especially the 3-in-1 kind …
Dari Creme Lite
I always like to use Dari Creme for my bread. It also tastes good for crackers. My mom bought Dari Creme Lite one time. It has less cholesterol, less fat, and less salt than the original Dari Creme. When I tried tasting it, it is less tasty. It really …

Mom’s Brand Madagascar S’mores Jungle Party Cereal
When shopping for cereal, variety certainly isn’t a problem. Now, making a choice may quite possibly be, because of the sheer number of boxed and bagged cereal, not to mention cereal intended to be served warm which is also known as porridge, available on grocery store shelves. Some cereals …
Kinder Pingui
I must say that this is not my favourite snak. You have one stratum of crunchy chocolate than milk cream and then chocolate again. I mean, I like it but it is not my first choice because it is little bit too seet for my taste.
There’s now a new …
Fuze Blend: Peach Mango Beverage
I brought myself a bottle of Fuze Peach Mango when my neighborhood Albertson was running a sale for $2 for 3. I am no stranger to the brand Fuze, so I was not hesitant to try this particular flavor. From the time I was a little girl and …
Madison Street Champagne Dill Mustard
A friend of mine went shopping at a local Big Lots store and ran across Madison Street Champagne Dill Mustard. I had never heard of this brand, let alone dill mustard. But since I am a huge fan of dill, I was immediately intrigued. I was …
New York Style - Panetini Three Cheese
New York Style - Panetini Three Cheese are small, tasty pieces of toast. The toast is pleasantly crispy and crunchy, and sort of reminds me of croutons. The toast is flavored with three different cheeses: Parmesan, Romano and cheddar cheeses. These three cheeses come together to create a rather …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange
I have tried this Minute Maid Pulpy Orange when we went to an outing one day with the whole family. It was actually given to me by my cousin who told me to try the said drink. I tasted it once and it was good. It’s …
President’s Choice Extra Rich Hot Chocolate Mix
I’ve long been a firm believer that in most cases, food items do not vary much from brand to brand and therefore, the variables I employ are usually price, flavour, fat content or size. Manufacturers usually use much the same ingredients, so the taste of the product varies little. …
Lunch Mate Deli Style Premium Honey Ham
Meats and cheeses sold at the deli counter in grocery stores can be pricey. That’s not to say some of the meats and cheeses aren’t worth the money and of course, it’s nice being able to have your meat or cheese sliced the way you like it, but if …
Bigelow Plantation Mint Tea
I typically love mint teas, and decided to try Bigelow’s Plantation Mint tea. It smells great while hot, and the first few sips are very pleasant. I usually add about two teaspoons of sugar, which brings out the mint flavor a bit more. And although the …
Taj Mahal Tea
I am not a tea lover basically, and I used to drink the coffee every day in the morning. But some how I came to know that, it is not a good habit to drink the coffee early in the morning with empty stomach, because the caffeine is …
Weight Watchers Smart Ones Pasta with Ricotta and Spinach
I have started with my Weight Watchers diet a few days ago and I am quite happy with it. I did not want to pay for membership but I figured maybe I can do it myself by buying their products and having a little knowledge about the Weight Watchers point …
Poland Spring bottled water
Poland Spring bottled water has a clean, fresh taste. It is pure, natural water from the springs of Maine. Poland Spring is the most popular and widely used bottled water currently on the market. The reason for this is because it is a name that is trusted and established. …
Folger’s Country Roast Coffee
I am a coffee addict that always loves a great bargain. I had the chance to purchase Folger’s Country Roast coffee for a really low price. I did not expect it to taste so good because it was so cheap. I decided to give it a try anyway and …
Lender’s Onion Bagel Shop Bagels
I love onion bagels! I like to eat them more than I like to eat regular or plain bagels. Because I don’t like to eat cream cheese on my bagels, it’s important to me that the bagels taste great all by themselves. My favorite kind is the savory type …
Ensure banana shake drink
Ensure banana shake drink is fantastic. I used to drink their vanilla health drink, only to hear so many people how it tastes like chalk and how could I drink such a drink. However I recently was in a supermarket and came across their new banana …
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, …
PurOliva Oil
It’s well known that Olive Oil is a better oil to use as it’s heart healthy but good extra virgin olive oil can be very expensive.
My sister had us over for a lovely italian meal and told me that she uses PurOliva.
I decided to give it a whirl.
It’s a …
St. Louis Bread Company Low Fat Strawberry Smoothie
I am a frequent customer at my local Panera. They know me by name and practically have my order going as I enter the door because they can read my mind on what I want. Because I go there so frequently and hand over a sizeable portion …
Freschetta Thin Crust Chicken & Spinach Pizza
I mentioned in an earlier review that we bought a couple of pizzas from the Freschetta brand. I was unhappy with the first pizza, a so-called 10-topping pizza, but hoped I would enjoy the unique flavor of the other pizza we bought; a chicken and spinach pizza.
I was wrong …
Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Biscuit and Baking Mix
This is perhaps the best gluten free all purpose baking mix that I have tried. There are other mixes for pancakes, biscuits, cookies and other such products, but this one covers them all. There are two recipes included on the back of the package which work out quite well …
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 …
Jack in the Box Chocolate Overload Cake
Recently I was in the mood for a simple dessert and I noticed that Jack in the Box actually had something called Chocolate Overload Cake. I’d never ordered it before and, in fact, had no idea that they even had this kind of dessert available. Naturally, I …
McCormick Imitation Coconut Extract
I love the flavor of coconut. I love its rich and wonderful taste. I was in the grocery store looking for something that would give me a coconut flavoring when I saw this extract. I bought it to impart a coconut taste to a recipe I was making in …
Jack N’ Jill Chippy
As far as local chips are concerned, Chippy would probably be my favorite among the others. Chippy has been in the market for a long time now since time in memoriam. Chippy has lots of new flavors now unlike before they only had the barbecue flavor which is still …
Glee Gum
I like to do a lot of hiking in the summertime. While I go hiking it is my habit to chew gum in order to keep my saliva going. I had been trying for quite a while to find a gum that does not have aspartame in it. Then …
Alexia Sweet Potato Fries
I recently tried Alexia frozen sweet potato fries and I was very pleasantly surprised by them. I was looking for a good alternative to regular french fries that would provide some extra nutritional punch while still tasting good, and Alexia sweet potato fries fit the bill.
Just like regular …
Chick-fil-A Chicken Salad Sandwich
There are few menu items at the Chick-fil-A fast food restaurant that I do not care for. The Chick-fil-A Chicken Salad Sandwich is most definitely one of them! I tried the sandwich once and never will I ever try it again. Neither the texture nor the flavor of the …
Cajun
No doubt many have used the name “Cajun” in their efforts to sell recipes and famous New Orleans style Cajun dishes as served in New Orleans. Beware as they are and introduction to heartburn and disappointment. You will do well if you just add a few choice ingredients to …
Andre Pink Champagne
We had celebrated the beginning of the new 2007 year with a bottle of Andre Pink Champagne. This was the first time I tried it. I happen to prefer sweet champagne, which is next to impossible to find here in the US for some reason. Every other bottle I …
McDonald’s McGriddle (Sausage, Egg & Cheese)
The McDonald’s McGriddle is, quite simply, incredibly delicious. It is perhaps one of the most tasty and satisfying things that I can have for breakfast. Of course, I cannot have it as often as I would really, really like to because the calorie count of just one McGriddle is …
Mentos Gum in Red Fruit - Lime
As an almost-constant gum chewer, I am always on a quest for new experiences. A local convenience store recently had this Mentos Gum on sale, so I opted to give it a try. Of the three flavors, I selected the Red Fruit - Lime.
The little plastic container is both …
Grandma’s Homestyle Big Cookie Oatmeal Raisin
Although I don’t like oatmeal raisin as much as chocolate chip or peanut butter cookies, this two pack of cookies nonetheless proved to be a flavorful treat. The two cookies that come in a pack are rich with oatmeal flavor and the raisin pieces that decorate the cookie are …
Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Milk
Yesterday I did a review for Sunnyside Farms ice cream and in that review I mentioned I wouldn’t buy anymore of this store brand’s dairy products. On the same shopping trip, however, I had also bought this product, Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Milk. I did so because I …
Supreme sun flower oil
