Contessa Green Cuisine Meals
While I like the concept behind Contessa Green Cuisine meals; make a frozen food product while working to reduce pollution, I have to say I found myself unimpressed when I had one of the dinners last night.
I had the Chicken Stir Fry and it had zero taste. It was …
Pringles Potato Crisps - Bacon Ranch
This is a flavor that takes a little getting used to, believe me! Bacon and ranch is an interesting combination of flavors, to say the very least! Now, I would say that the zesty ranch taste sort of overrides the bacon flavor, but both flavors are clearly present and you …
Wibisco Shirley Biscuits
I remember that these have been around for a very long time, even though I’m not sure if the same company Wibisco used to make them when I was little. I do know though that I started hating them after a while, probably because my parents used to buy …
Betty Crocker - Walnut Chunk Brownies
Betty Crocker - Walnut Chunk Brownies offer a nice change of pace from the smooth and chocolate rich brownies that generally dominate the grocery store. Indeed, the word “chunk” most definitely applies to this brownie! You will most certainly be able to taste the walnut flavor sticking out from …
Mahatma Saffron Yellow Long Grain Rice
My whole family loves Mahatma Saffron Yellow Long Grain Rice. It’s really nice for my “rice kid”, my son who at the moment would live on rice if we let him, loves this stuff I love this rice. It’s a nice change to give him …
Banquet Homestyle Bakes
I am a fussy eater sometimes , especially with frozen or ready made foods. I love cooking, especially if it’s quick, easy and when the food turns out to be phenomenal. I’ve tried the Banquet Homestyle Bakes so far and I’m hooked! It’s really quick and easy to make, …
Jelly Belly Lollibeans
I fully admit to having a love of Jelly Belly jellybeans. They were the first (and maybe only) company to make Dr. Pepper flavored jellybeans and they have a lot of flavors that you just can’t find anywhere else. They are now making suckers, which they call Lollibeans. I …
Ocean Spray Craisins Sweetened Dried Cranberries 100 Calorie Pack
My favorite healthy snack to snack on lately is the Ocean Spray Craisins Sweetened Dried Cranberries 100 Calorie Pack. They are sweet tart and delicious and I find them to be tasty on top of a salad and yogurt. They also go great with pork chop dinners with a …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Banana Cream

Yomo Natural White 0.1% fat yogurt
Natural yogurt is something that I really like but I don’t like them when they are too sour and acid. Yesterday I bought Yomo Natural White 0.1% fat. Well, natural yogurts usually don’t have a lot of calories so I really don’t see a reason to make a 0.1% …
McCoys Ridged Nacho Cheese Flavour Tortillas
I am not so hot on these Ridged Tortillas from the McCoy’s brand, but they are edible. I think when I saw them I thought they were the brand I tried before which I liked but these were not as nice as the other brand. Just so …
Burger King Whopper with Cheese from Burger King

Del Monte Sweet Blend Tomato Ketchup
Del Monte is my favorite brand to use whether it’s for making spaghetti, being used for hotdogs, french fries, meatballs, eggs, or spam. It has a sweet blend taste with doesn’t make it all sour and bitter like fresh tomatoes do, and it does make perfect sauce for a …
Lipton Brisk Iced Tea
Because I’m trying to cut back on soda, I have found myself drinking a lot of iced tea lately. One of the brands I buy is Lipton Brisk Iced Tea.
The Lipton Iced Tea, which can be bought in 12 ounce cans (something I prefer because it saves me from …
Lean Pocket Ham and Cheese
Because of my previous experience with the Lean Pocket Philly cheese steak, I wanted to expand my lunch menu to another pastry sandwich: The Lean Pocket ham and cheese. I’ve had the Hot pocket ham and cheese and they are the best, so I thought the Lean Pocket ham …
Heinz Original Tomato ketchup
Of all the tomato ketchup that I could find in the supermarket I’ve always chose the Heinz ones not because of it is a well known name but because I’ve simply love it’s taste. Actually, Heinz tomato ketchup is almost perfect and I’ve always had it every time …
The Co-operative Cheese and Onion Quiche
I got a bargain today because I managed to buy one of The Co-operative’s own brand cheese and onion quiche for only 63p because it was nearly out of date, but I have 24 hours to eat it which should not be a problem. Usually, they retail at …
Monaco biscuits
Next to parle G biscuits, Monaco biscuits are the best. These are very tasty biscuits. They are salty and are crunchy. The taste is very different from the other brands of biscuits. These are simple biscuits and they do not have any chocolate covering or vanilla covering. And these …
Chocolate Chips Ahoy!
Chocolate Chips Ahoy is one of the chocolate chips that I want to taste and taste than the other. The first time I tasted the Chocolate Chips Ahoy was when I was a child because my grandmother frequently brings us a Chocolate Chips Ahoy. From that time, it became …
Folger’s Classic Roast
My cousin and I love drinking coffee! We live for our night caps out in the patio. In the mornings, I am tasked to put some on the brewer so that we’d have a fresh cup every morning. And my favorite coffee of choice is Folger’s Classic Roast, the …
Hair of the Dog Energy Drink
Hair of the Dog is an energy drink which is sold claiming that it will actually help detoxify your body. All drinks which have water in them can do this. However, this drink sells them off as some sort of attempt to claim that it will actually decrease your …
Van Houten Milk Chocolate With Almonds
I love eating chocolates. From dark chocolates to white chocolates, I love them all. This is probably why I have a weight problem. They say that chocolates are fattening, but who cares. Even when I try to go on a diet, I can’t resist the temptation of eating chocolates …
Culver’s Fried Chicken
Being a huge fan of fried chicken, I have ordered it in many different places, and I believe I can say that fried chicken served at Culver’s is very close to be the best of the best. It is always soft and juicy inside, while the outside is that …
Best Choice Frozen Shoestring Cut French Fries
Our family has recently made a strong attempt to save money at the grocery store by trying generic brands of our favorite items. One of our favorite items to purchase is frozen shoestring cut French fries. We use these often as a side dish with hamburgers or hot …
Co-operative cheese & onion flavour potato crisps
I do quite a lot of my shopping at the Co-op, or the Co-operative as they have relatively recently rebranded themselves. I am supportive of their policies on fairness and environmental concern, and find the shops convenient. Oddly, however, I do not buy most of my crisps from there, …
Carolina Gold Parboiled Rice
When my father’s friend and his family came back from abroad a few days ago, they brought a few products with them. One of those products was a very large bag of rice, which I late found out was a bag of Carolina Gold Parboiled Rice. As weird as …
Klondike Vanilla Sandwiches
I used to think a lot more about Klondike Vanilla Sandwiches than I do today. In fact, some time back I reviewed one variety of Klondike ice cream treats which I liked much better than these sandwiches.
Klondike Vanilla Sandwiches are artificially flavored with artificial flavor added. They …
Woody’s Smokehouse No Sugar Added Fig Preserves
On a recent visit, my brother gave me a gift of no sugar added fig preserves made my Woody’s Smokehouse, a company in Centerville, TX which sells to various small retailers. My grandmother made fig preserves when I was a child, and I remember them as gooey and sweet …
Oreo cookies
Before I travel to Australia, I never really eat this cookies because I first taught that only kids love it. But when I stayed in Australia for like 9 months, I see myself falling in love with this cookie. Not really in love, but what I just mean is …
Betty Crocker Creamy Mashed Potatoes Box Mix
I like Betty Crocker mashed potatoes box mix, but I also have a love and hate relationship with it because even though the finished potatoes are good, I often find myself have to fix the mashed potatoes which has become part of the cooking process at this point.
Betty Crocker has …
Get up plus energy drink
I like energy drinks not because of their pick up effect but because of the taste. All of them, cheap and expensive ones have that sweet bubble gum taste which I like. I rarely buy those expensive energy drinks like Red Bull, or Red bat because I’ve found much …
Bob’s Red Mill Wheat Germ
I am into trying to eat as many healthy food products as possible.
Wheat Germ is one of those products. I eat 3 tablespoons of wheat Germ everyday. I just add a little milk and sugar to it. I also add it to my bran cereal.I have also added it …
Anlene Fresh Milk
Anlene fresh milk that comes in 250 ml package is my latest favorite among fresh milk today. I am a milk drinker but not so much on fresh milk because I dreaded its dry unsweetened taste, but as I turned 30 several years ago I am increasingly concerned about …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Pumpkin
Although I find this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Pumpkin variety to be enjoyable, much like the cheesecake no bake line, I prefer a fresh, homemade pumpkin pie because it is so much richer and more moist! This no bake dessert is alight, but it is a little on …
Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls
Normally, I love Jimmy Dean’s line of frozen food. This is particularly true when the meal includes sausage. As far as I’m concerned, Jimmy Deann produces the very best pork sausage, whether it be the big roll or the link variety. Not too spicy, but not too bland, JD’s …
Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA
Today I am going to be reviewing Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA. I love regular Sierra Nevada Pale Ale but the IPA version is just awesome. I can still remember the first day I tried one at my friends house. The taste of it was so good when it was …
Ritz 100 Calorie Snack Packs

Ferrato’s Meatballs
I recently purchased a bag of Ferrato’s Meatballs the last time I was at our local Save-a-Lot store so I could use them in my spaghetti later in the week.
I used them last night and was pretty impressed with the overall quality.
The meatballs lacked a bit in terms of …
Betty Crocker Four Cheese Mashed Potatoes
Betty Crocker Four Cheese Mashed Potatoes are a really easy side dish to make. I just put water on to boil, then pour in the contents of the pouch to moisten them and then let them sit! They are so super easy and fast to make.

Kroger - Blackberry Pie
The blackberry pie baked straight from Kroger’s bakery is a little different from some of the other pies that the store sells. What separates this pie from say the apple or peach or blue berry pie is that it has a thicker crust to it. Now, I do not …
Yosoi Valsoia creamy white yogurt
I have never tasted any Valsoia product and I must say right now that I really regret trying it this time. Valsoia is an Italian brand that makes vegetable products and that means with less or no cholesterol, they are mostly made of soy milk and similar soy derivatives. …

Combos Snacks - Cheddar Cheese Pretzel

Heritage flavoured milk
Heritage is the name of a very big farm where the pure and good quality milk is available. Everyday we buy the heritage milk for our family. Just a few days back when I had been to the market my eyes caught the flavoured milk from Heritage. …
Bread and Butter Pickles
Pickles are one of the best snack foods or additions to meals. Vlasic pickles are my absolute favorites, which is why I was so sad when I came across the bread and butter pickles that were meant to go inside of a sandwich. They were nothing like the normal …
Great Value Pork Sausage
I have come to expect little, if anything, from Great Value (Wal-Mart’s store brand). The bread is almost always stale, the sodas taste flat, and the crinkle-cut French fries are soggy. Oh, and the chili with beans? Terrible.
But I’m in college, so my grocery budget isn’t always as …
