Best Choice Hickory Smoked Kielbasa Sausage
I love to use kielbasa sausages in a variety of casseroles, soups and stews. I also use these sausages when I make some of my specialties like red beans and rice. One problem is that I often pay more than three dollars for higher priced brand of this food. …
Sans Souci Dark Chocolate & Jelly Bean Eggs
What a great idea for Easter - two dark chocolate eggs (2″ tall) filled with colorful jelly beans. These eggs are available from Chocolate.com for $18. They come in a white box that looks somewhat like those carryout boxes at Chinese restaurants; when you open the box, the eggs …
Scooby’s
This fast food chain is a local counterpart of McDonald’s or Jollibee. Mostly of this company’s products are of similar in content and presentation of those famed fast-foods I just mentioned above.
When I was still new to this place and just …
Tropicana Tropical Punch
I’m nursing a seasonal cold, so I went to the store to find that orange juice, normally a little higher than other juices, was jacked up suspiciously higher than normal. Instead of selling in to the cold-time mania, I opted to try some Tropicana fruit punch instead. Two quarts …
Uncle Ben’s Sweet & Sour sauce
This sauce has a sweet and sour taste that mixes between them perfectly. It has pieces of crispy vegetables in it pineapple and bamboo shoots. You can use it with pasta, rice but also with meat only and it tastes really great.
I was pretty sceptical when I first saw …
Alpine Sterilized Full Cream Milk Drink (Reconstituted)
I was looking for Nestle Sterilized milk at Mercury Drug convenient store when I came across Alpine Sterilized milk. What I know with Alpine is the one in purple and in can. This is the first time I learned that like Nestle they already have one that is in …
Nescafe 3in1 strong
I really like coffee and all possible drinks made of coffee. I started drinking coffee rather late, when I was more than 20. It doesn’t seems to be late but today I see children 15 or 16 years old who have the habit of drinking coffee so I consider …
Little Debbie Spirit of America Marshmallow Treats
It is a shame that the only thing that generally separates one marshmallow treat from another are the colors. These Little Debbie Spirit of America Marshmallow Treats are no different really from the other Little Debbie marshmallow treats which in turn are no different from Rice Krispies treats. This …
Ice Chocolate Drink At JCo Donuts
Pure chocolate mixed with milk, and we can blend it with ice. We can also put whipping cream with choco granule to sweeten its style; this beverage is too thick for me. It could make me vomit if I drink it all at once. But if you really love …
Chips Ahoy - Big Pack
Recently, I purchased the Chips Ahoy - Big Pack as I call it. It’s a large box that contains four packages of 12-ounce packages of Chips Ahoy! cookies. I made the purchase at Sam’s Club. The reason for the buy was that not only do I …
Sun-Rype Apple Vanilla Pear juice
I drink a lot of juice. I’ve tried lots of different kinds, but one I generally like the best is the Sun-Rype Apple Vanilla Pear juice. It’s light, refreshing, and the taste is pretty good.
The significant part is the taste. It sort of like apple juice but with a …
Milford Ingwer Pur, ginger tea
I really like ginger root. I always ad it to my food and also to the teas that I am making but ginger root can be very expensive and it does not last for a long time. Sometimes I buy it when it is not discount and it just goes …
Tahesta apple vinegar
I usually use tahesta apple vinegar to support my daily activities. As we already know apple vinegar is very popular because it has many benefits that can be useful to the body. Tahesta apple vinegar can be consumed by anyone, and especially recommended for old people.
I already use …
Organics Organic Vanilla Soymilk
I’ve been trying to find a perfect plant-based milk for my coffee for the last few months or so, but I couldn’t find the one that would froth well and taste good at the same time.
However, I’ve always known that soymilk frothes well, but it tasted disgusting when I tried …
Cadbury Dairy Milk Silk Fruit and Nut
I got curious on the advertisement of Cadbury which featured Silk Cadbury so that is why we bought it at a grocery in Hypercity. I really do like Cadbury chocolates and that is one of the reasons why I bought Cadbury Dairy Milk Silk Fruit and Nut variety.
The taste …
Yoplait Whips Key Lime Pie
I have never been a huge fan of yogurt. I find it to have a bad after taste and something about thinking about eating live cultures grosses me out. I have tried time and time again to eat it because it is so good for you. …
Alaska Evaporada (evaporated creamer)
There are lots of evaporated creamer out in the market today. Whenever you want to make a desert, you can choose from so many of these canned milk from the cheapest to the most expensive or from the most popular to the least. But have you ever …
Izze Sparkling Clementine Beverage
I am no stranger to the brand Izze. As a person who is trying to set aside soda, Izze sparkling beverages are life savers. Which is how I came to try Izze Sparkling Clementine. As you can imagine, I was not hesitant in grabbing a few of bottles.
What I …
Old London Melba Snacks White Cheddar
Cheddar is not a cheese that I often keep in my refrigerator, but I do not mind tasting it. I do mind however spending nearly five dollars for a cracker that does not have a very satisfying flavor and that describes these crackers In the case of Old London …
Krispy Kreme’s Honey Glazed Donuts
It was a good thing that Krispy Kreme has opened shops in Manila. I have always heard people raving about it, people from the US bringing home Krispy Kreme donuts even in an 18 hour long flight. I was contented with the Dunkin’ Donuts already, but since this shop …
Diet Mountain Dew soda
I started a low carb diet a few weeks ago and finding things that I can drink has been a real challenge. While water makes up most of my liquid intake, sometimes I just need something with a little taste. I have never been a fan of diet soda, …
Sargento Cheese Dips - Cheddar Dip & Zesty Ranch Bagel Chips
Sargento Cheese Dips - Cheddar Dip & Zesty Ranch Bagel Chips make for a tasty and memorable snack. This snack consists of three “parts”: the bagel chips, the zesty ranch flavor that can be found already on the chips and the cup of cheddar dip. What I really like …
Nescafe Coffee
I never used to like coffee very much to the point where I would wonder what other people found to like in its taste. However these days I have begun to appreciate a mug of coffee now and then. I have also come to realise that that not ever …
Redondo Vanilla Cream Wafers
We, my daughter and I, first discovered the Redondo Vanilla Cream Wafers at my aunt’s place. She has bought it for her sons to snack on. They tasted great and my daughter loved it and had seconds. So, I asked her where she bought them. She said it was …
Cedarlane Spinach and Feta Tamales
I recently purchased the Cedarlane brand Spinach and Feta Cheese Tamales frozen product. These tamales, with quinoa for added nutrients, were not as I had hoped and anticipated them to be. The taste was too bland, and, for lack of a better word, earthy in texture.
The tamales …
Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge
One of my favorite treats as a child was the marshmallow fudge that my mom usually made during the holiday season. This delightful candy recipes is just one of many recipes which my mother handed down to me a couple of years ago. My mom loved to bake and …
Apple and Eve Organic Apple Juice
Not too long ago, I needed organic apple juice as part of a gall-stone cleaning remedy. Not being a big fan of apple juice, I wasn’t too thrilled about that, but I decided to try it out, anyway. Upon going to the store, they only had two …
Cerelac Mied Fruits With Soya
My daughter started eating solid foods when she was five months old. Hers first food was Cerelac and one of her favorite flavor is Mixed Fruits with Soya. I wonder why she likes it so much because it taste a little bland compared to Banana, Rice and Soya which …
Jack-N-the-Box Monster Taco
The monster taco from Jack-n-the-box is like a bigger version of their regular taco. At least that’s what I would assume given that it costs the same amount as two of their regular tacos. When I was down south recently I had the chance to try a couple of …
McDonald’s Quarter Pounder with Cheese Value Meal
I have been to numerous McDonald’s branches, from Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and many more but I could not find anything close to our homegrown choices. I had tried eating at Singapore when I happen to stop by a mall and the nearest fast food was McDonald’s. It is …
Aunt Jemima Blueberry Pancakes
Aunt Jemima Blueberry Pancakes are, in my opinion, quite poor and I most certainly will not be purchasing these pancakes again. The reason I find the pancakes to be positively poor is because of the blueberries. When I first looked at the picture on the box, I felt that …
Sliced Smoked Nova Salmon
I guess one has to be accustomed to cold smoked fish in order to appreciate Sliced Smoked Nova Salmon. My husband obviously isn’t, he refused even to try it when I had purchased this small 3 oz pack. He took one look at it and said, “Blah, sushi.” I, …
Kroger Cinnamon Waffles
These waffles from Kroger are kind of bland. There certainly is some cinnamon flavor baked into these waffles, but it’s not enough to win me over. The cinnamon becomes particularly difficult to taste when I add a butter spread and syrup. Even if I skip the syrup, which I …
Guinness Harp Beer
Guinness has something good going on, not only with their world famous Guinness Draught Beer, but yet again with its lighter Guinness Harp beer. This beer doesn’t have quite the same bold taste as its brother beer but it still taste delicious and gives people an excuse to say, …
Nissin Cup Noodles Mast Masala
We had our breakfast today with noodles in a cup and it was the quickest thing that I can prepare for my husband who is really early to go to work and we don’t have much time to prepare any sandwich or so.
It was my first time to buy …
KFC Ultimate Sandwich
I tried the KFC Ultimate Burger when i was at the KFC near our office. It was around noon when i decided to just go for the fastfood since others have more people than this branch and i was in a hurry. They have this new sandwich posted and …
Shiraz Wine (Trader Joe’s)
I really have no idea about where different wines come from. For years I would order Chardonnay, simply because I liked the light refreshing taste. Then I ventured out to explore red wines, like Chianti and merlot. But when I ran across the Shiraz wine …
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 …
Jamocha Shake from Arby’s
I love shakes and find myself ordering them a few times a year. I do not purchase them all of the time because of the price and the calories. One shake that I like to have every now and then is from local Arby’s. It is a jamocha flavored …
Sobe Energize Power Fruit Punch
I tried another flavor from the elixir line of Sobe called Energize fruit punch when my neighborhood Kroger was running a sale on them for only eighty cents. Considering I’ve previously tried a previous flavor from this brand I wasn’t too hesitant to grab a bottle.
Personally I’m not …
Kellogg’s Froot loops
Kellogg’s Froot loops is a loop shaped breakfast cereal made with maize, wheat and barley. I bought this for my toddler who likes most home made foods. This cereal is colorful with fruit flavors. My baby used to eat because of the shapes, but now eats just one or …

Grandi Coconut chocolate bar
Grandi is a very cheap Croatian brand which you can buy only at Getro shop chains. Some of the stuff are OK but most of them aren’t. They usually have a very nice design with a small elephant on it. Grandi Coconut chocolate bar has a really nice little …
Mcdonald’s Southern Style Chicken
I decided to try the new Southern Style Chicken Sandwich from the McDonald’s in Fairfield, NJ. When I first unwrapped this sandwich I was surprised to see that there were no condiments. The sandwich looked like it was a descent size. The chicken breast on this …
Swanson Salisbury steak packaged dinner
I am not usually a huge fan of television dinners but I do love Swanson products, so when their packaged dinners came on sale two for $5 I just had to buy them. The first one I selected was the Salisbury steak dinner with mushrooms, gravy potatoes and corn, …
Minute Maid Mango Orange Pulp Juice Drink
It is customary during breakfast that my family always drink at least a bottle of orange juice, freshly brewed coffee or cold glass of milk. My lifestyle and philosophies in diet have influenced my family a lot and so I tend to help them in every way. I have …
Food Club Graham Crackers
Again, I was out shopping for snacks for my daughter’s kindergarten class and ended up picking up the cheapest snacks I could find. One of those snacks happened to be Food Club Graham Crackers.
I have already commented about the snack crackers from this brand, which I wasn’t impressed with. …
Lipton Clear Green Tea
With the trend now directed to healthy living, a lot of products mushroomed in the market. A proven healthy drink way back to those what you call it era, is the tea. And you’ve heard of the regular tea, black, white, green, oolong, Earl Grey teas.
Personally, I am not …
Sainsbury’s Bakery Chocolate Twist
I am always harping on about the bargains I can find at supermarkets when they reduce the prices of their bakery goods at the end of the day as you can find great bargains. The food is not stale, it is just that they have to sell certain …

Looking for a cheap, palatable method to cure that nasty morning breath? BreathSavers mints are a cheap and relatively effective way to improve those social skills. Sugar free, with only five calories each, the little mints are mild enough in flavor for the sensitive mouth, but strong …
