Fushanquan Green Tea Wine
I’ve been interested in trying out new health foods that will bring good health and just all around natural. I like to rink tea because it just tastes great and when I get sick it’s even more of a healer than anything else.
I bought some Green Tea wine …
Stash Blackcurrant Iced Tea bags (gallon size)
I’ve long been a fan of flavored black teas, and black currant in particular. Lately I have been trying various brands to see if I can find an affordable replacement for Twinings brand, who changed their formula much to their fans dissatisfaction.
Stash has been a brand …
Arm & Hammer Baking Soda
I put it under the General category because it has many uses. I use this baking soda primarily as a once-a-week exfoliant for my face and whitening deodorant for my underarms. I scrub it on my face because it really smoothens the texture and gets rid of the whiteheads …
Vitazone Soursop Lemon
I like cold drinks. Almost any kinds of cold drinks. If I don’t have the time or energy to make some cold drinks, I opt by buying some of them. One of the drink I love to buy is Vitazone, it is a vitamin isotonic drink. …
Jelley Brown Dairy Beverage
Jelley Brown is a dairy beverage that struck my notice while I was doing my grocery shopping. Even though I am very familiar to milk and milk products I was new to a product like Jelley Brown. The petite bottle itself was attractive. I decided to buy a five …
Kraft Singles Cheese
Kraft Singles appears to be like any other cheese when it is in your grocery store but after I tried it I noticed the difference right away.They have several ads talking about how it is made with real milk and this is correct, if you try the product you …
Campbell’s Condensed Broccoli and Cheese Soup
Campbell’s Condensed Broccoli and Cheese Soup is the only one of the Campbell’s soups (that I can think of, at least) that you are supposed to cook with milk, not milk or water. There is a note on the back of the can, specifically stating so. I normally do …
Subway Green Tea (with honey)
I feel in love with Subways’ Green Tea with honey because it tastes so refreshing and it is healthy. The drinks color is not green as other green tea, but golden coloring with no smell. Well, I did not smell any odor from the drink. I liked it because …
Black and Gold Lasagna
Black and Gold Lasagna is a moderately priced Lasagna, available from Independent Grocers Association stores in Australia.
Cooking Time: You need to cook it for 8 minutes, high power in a microwave.

Frito Lay chips
Frito Lay makes some of the most bland chips ever, I rarely ever buy these even though potato chips are my weakness. I can not resist the yummy salty crunch of potato chips. I had pretty much given up on Frito Lay potato chips, with the exception of …
Folgers Instant Coffee
Folgers makes a very good instant coffee, almost excellent I might add.
The flavor is rich, but not overwhelmingly. A teaspoon of Coffee in a hot mug of water first thing in the morning without having to wait on the drip or the percolater is just what I need …
Kroger Potato Chips - Sour Cream and Onion
I did not care too much for the Kroger brand of sour cream and onion chips. Unlike the regular, rippled chips from Kroger, these chips really did not offer a very strong or memorable flavor of sour cream or onion. Neither flavor managed to stand out too well. I …
Lipton Sparkling Green Tea
I have become so bored of plain bottled water and pop lately, and as I seem to be living through the longest heat wave I can remember, I have been looking for refreshing drinks, that are not full of sugar, calories and carbohydrates, and that taste good while keeping …
Hamburger Helper by Betty Crocker
I’m not a huge hamburger helper meal lover. I’ve tried the no name hamburger helper meals and decided in the future I would pass. This one the Family Size Lasanga Hamburger Helper by Betty Crocker was actually pretty good.
It comes in a 335g box that includes egg noodles and …
Orbit White Bubblemint Gum
I am reviewing Wrigley’s Orbit White Bubblemint gum. You can now buy this in the “BigePak” which is a circular shaped container. It is less than $3, and you get quite a bit of gum for that price. This particular size would be good to throw in your purse …
Morrisons Chocolate & Vanilla Cheesecake
Cheesecake is one of my favourite desserts, as long as it is a quality cheesecake, otherwise they can be a bit sickly. This Chocolate & Vanilla Cheesecake from Morrisons own brand is completely gorgeous for a shop-bought one. I usually only buy a two-slice packet but I …
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 …
Starbuck’s Java Chip Ice Cream
Starbucks Java Chip ice cream has got to be the best coffee flavored ice cream available. Being an ice cream connoisseur, I know my ice cream’s and who makes the best! I have always found coffee ice cream to be on the top of my list, but then I …

Grandi Chocolate banana
I went to Getro discount about 3 weeks ago and I bought a bunch of cheap Grandi products. Grandi is a cheap, but really cheap brand, that you can find only at Getro. Usually their stuff aren’t good but some of them are so I decided to check them …
Cadbury Snack
Although the Cadbury Snack shortcake biscuits are quite a simple idea, I think they are really tasty and they are one of my favourites, depending on what mood I am in. You buy these in a packet of six small square biscuits totally covered in Cadbury milk chocolate. …
Cold Stone Creamery
Cold Stone Creamery in my opinion beats Baskin Robbins or any store-bought variety of ice cream any day. I first discovered it six years ago when I heard people at my camp talking about it. When there was an outing to go see …
Stouffer’s Skillets Beef Stroganoff
Stouffer’s Skillets Beef Stroganoff is really quite delicious! The flavor is perhaps even more plentiful than the portions of the meal, and that is really something since the portions are pretty significant! The beef is really very tender and so flavorful, too! There is plenty of it, too, so …
Pinahs Rye Chips —“ Garlic
Pinahs Rye Chips —“ Garlic is my favorite of the four flavors available. I had a feeling that I would really enjoy this flavor because I really enjoy garlic in general, and I was pleased to find that the makers of this chip treated the chips with a generous …
Microwave Popcorn
Microwave popcorn is the perfect snack. My husband makes a bag of microwave popcorn every night before bed. I don’t always eat some but it is his favorite. It’s such an easy and good snack. Just a couple of minutes in the microwave and you have fresh hot buttery …
Tai Pei Combination Fried Rice
I love Asian foods, so when I bought the Tai Pei Combination Fried Rice I was expecting an authentic-tasting rice dish. What I got did not match the appetizing picture on the box. It was not what I expected, and I felt rather cheated out of $3 and a …
Rold Gold Pretzels: Dark Dipped Bavarian Twists
I was given a bag of Rold Gold Pretzels: Dark Dipped Bavarian twist to try from a friend who is in love with pretzels. Being that I am a person who loves trying new things, I couldn’t turn down her offer. I actually have never previously had crunchy pretzels …
QuesO Cheezy Spread in Resealable Pack
I bought this cheesy spread because it was in a resealable pack which is easier for me to carry inside my luggage. I don’t want to carry big bottles or any vulnerable items whenever I travel so my best option is to buy something in tetra or sachets or …
Pepsi throwback
It was at the gas station one day and I really wanted soda. I was looking over the selections in the cooler and I saw that Pepsi Throwback. The Pepsi products were indeed on sale so I figured I would buy the two for $2.50 and I bought one …

Marlboro Virginia Blend Cigarettes
Tough economic times call for drastic measures when buying cigarettes. My usual brand are the rich and smooth Parliment Lights 100’s, but they are up to $45 a carton in the Los Angeles area. I was looking for some filler brands to stretch my cigarette budget, and stumbled upon …
Black Pearl Drinks
We all have heard of the “Zagu”, the Healthie fresh fruit shakes, Fruitas, and even Quickly; just this afternoon, I had a sudden craving for a melon shake, and the first I saw was the “Black Pearl” kiosk just at the entrance of the shopping mall. It was …

One of my favorite thing to drink is real fruit juice. I love orange, apple, and grape. I also love fresh squeezed lemonade. I saw Simply Made Lemonade in the store. I liked the sleek bottle and the label. The lemonade looked fresh because of the color. I decided …
Pepsi One
Pepsi One is the perfect choice for those of us who like Pepsi and watch our calories intake. I have tried Diet Pepsi and I did not like it. There is a definite taste difference from regular Pepsi that I didn’t appreciate. Diet Pepsi is just not the same, …

I went to the grocery to buy easy to cook meals and I found Alf Farms Chicken Luncheon slices which I can put for our sandwich or I can fry it straight good to match for our lunch or dinner meals.
It was vacuum sealed and it was really fresh …
V soft drink can
V is a carbonated drink that is designed to give you energy. It comes in four different varieties in different colored cans. Even though I’m a bit of a soft drink addict, I can’t say I like V all that much - it’s just ok, but certainly not my …
Pomegranate Fusion Smirnoff Ice
I usually like to drink beverages from the Smirnoff Ice collection because they are more refreshing than drinking wine coolers. I will admit that their alcohol content doesn’t taste much stronger than the strongest brand of coolers I’ve had. In any case, I bought this flavor …
Lance Cheese on Wheat Crackers
Ever since I was a small child I have always enjoyed Lance Cheese on Wheat crackers. The crackers are only sold packaged in packs of six; you can find them sometimes in vending machines. These are by far my favorite packaged cracker simply because of how different they are …

Annie Chun’s Miso Soup is a packaged soup mix that retails for one dollar and fifty cents in stores. Some preparation and mixing are required before this soup can be placed in the microwave, but the directions on the package were pretty easy to follow and I just had …
McDonalds Double Cheeseburgers
McDonalds is known for their greasy, unhealthy food, and their trademark double cheeseburger is no different. It is made with two hamburger patties, two slices of American cheese, a few pickles, some diced onion, and ketchup, between two standard buns. It sounds like any other American cheeseburger, but it’s …
Cookout Chili Cheese Fries
The chili cheese fries from Cookout are either something you absolutely love or something you absolutely hate. I feel confident in saying that because recently I tried them for the first time with my best friend and while she loved them, I hated them. We grabbed the fries along …
Nestle Betty Condensed Milk
One of the food items which my family will buy constantly is “Nestle Betty Condensed Milk.” This is because not only is it affordable, but it tends to be convenient in many ways.
One of the reasons is because it comes in a tin. Therefore it tends to last …

Nestle Chocolate Caramel Cocoa Mix

Cadbury dairy milk chocolate is certified Fair Trade
Cadbury dairy milk chocolate is now certified Fair Trade. This is such a relief for me, being a chocoholic with ethics can be difficult because many chocolate manufacturers do not guarantee a fair trade for developing world producers. It’s more important now, given recent news reports on …
Baked Chocolate Mousse
I love this dessert, Baked Chocolate Mousse very much. In fact, I do know that it’s fattening but I just can’t help it at most times.
Whenever you go to any cake shop and you could find Baked Chocolate Mousse, there is a high chance that the taste …
Payless Jumbo Hotdog by Mekeni Foods Corporation
I was in one of my stingy modes when I went grocery shopping at the Gaisano Country Mall, Cebu City, Philippines this weekend. While looking at the freezer containing processed and preserved foods, I was struggling with myself on what breakfast food to buy.

Branston Mayo with a twist of Hot Peri Peri Mayonnaise
