Apple Pumpkin Pie
Apple Pumpkin Pie is a fairly delightful dessert that I am sometimes able to purchase at Tom Thumb around September, October and November. The reason that I say it is a fairly delightful dessert is because it does have a slight flaw to it: the pie comes across as …
Great Value Chocolate Flavored Syrup
I use Great Value Chocolate Flavored Syrup mostly to make chocolate milk. It can also be used as ice cream or pie topping. The syrup is made with real cocoa and has rich chocolate taste, not any worse than big brand names like Hershey’s. I had tried Hershey’s before …
Century Tuna
There are many different brands of canned tuna available in almost all stores today. Most of them are ready-to-eat so lots of busy moms have this in their list of foods to shop. One of the leading brands of canned tuna we have here is Century …
Quaker Fruit and Cream Instant Oatmeal
Now that I am older, eating better has become a priority. As my metabolism begins to slow, I have tried to alter my eating habits to more whole grains so that I can eat less but stay full longer. One way that I have done this is by introducing …
Kroger Baked Cheese Curls
I remember as a kid loving a cheese snack called ‘cornies’. The Kroger brand of Baked Cheese Curls is a product that is as good or better than the snack I remember for my childhood. The product comes in a 7 ounce bag, and the store often has the …
Skinnygirl Tangerine Vodka
While vodkas are not necessarily thought to be one of the worst alcohols to drink, they still contain some calories and carbs that can lead to weight gain when overindulging. I heard about this vodka line from a promotional tour Bethenney Frankel did back in April. After trying the …
Nadec Orange Juice
I opened a bottled juice this morning, Nadec Orange Juice, it was unpleasant. It smelled awful and tasted even worse! And when i thought i would approach this company to complain about the juice, i tried calling the toll-free number mentioned on the bottle but guess wht, they’re even …
Twix Chocolate Bar
Twix, a lovely piece of chocolate and it’s almost something that is there for Kitkat lovers who want something a little more satisfying. Two think fingers of nougar, biscuit and caramel covered in a lovely chocolate coating. It’s quite a tough centre as well which I think makes …
Spinach and Feta Stuffed Chicken Breasts
One of my favorite meals of all time is stuffed chicken breasts. I recently came across a few recipes for this stuffed breast meal, and figured it would be pretty easy. You’ll need the following ingredients, chicken breasts, frozen spinach, herbed bread crumbs, feta cheese, butter, …
Sunpure sunflower oil
The sunpure sunflower oil is very good oil, which I have been using since 6 years in my daily cooking. Actually since I am using this oil the dishes, which I prepare, are becoming very tasty and also light. Because the sunflower oil does not contain much …
Cream Chicken Soup from Pizza Hut
Whenever we dine at Pizza Hut we always ordered pan Pizza and soup. Our favorite is Cream Chicken Soup. Pizza Hut has a value meal for the price of $ 2.32. It includes a small size of pan Pizza with soup. The soup is serves first as an appetizer …
McCormick Black Peppercorn Grinder 1.24 oz
We got this when my husband went to Wal-Mart to get me pepper after work. All that I wanted was some ground black pepper for our dinner, but he came home with this McCormick Black Peppercorn Grinder because he knows that I like peppercorn grinders. It is very nice …
Munchies Traditional Mix
Munchies Traditional Mix is a pretty average, run of the mill type of mix that does not really do anything different or special to set it apart from the other snack mixes that can be found in grocery stores and supermarkets. It is actually a mix that is inferior …
Kashi Heart-to-Heart Roasted Garlic Crackers
Triscuits is one of my favorite snacks. However, if you noticed the salt content, you may be turned away from the fact that it is more than recommended by the FDA. Although it is healthier than other snacks in the market, it is still not a recommended …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Cherry Cheesecake
Although this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Cherry Cheesecake is not nearly as good as a cheesecake that is baked fresh or purchased already made from the grocery store, for the price that this item is sold at Super Wal*Mart, it is actually a decent deal. The cherry cheesecake, …
Chick-fil-A Chicken Breakfast Burrito
Chick-fil-A Chicken Breakfast Burrito is something that might be a tad rich for some people when it comes to breakfast. This breakfast burrito is packed chocked full with chicken, eggs, onions, peppers, Monterey Jack and cheddar cheese. The chicken is tender and crispy, the eggs rich, the onions and …
Clara Ole Strawberry Jam
Admitting of having a sweet tooth is not likely to happen, in my case, for now. I can mention individuals who can’t get enough of sweets—”excluding myself. I will not deliberately go to store and buy anything sweets like candy or chocolate; I would rather settle for bread, noodles …
Piattos Chips
I consider Piattos chips before as one of the best potato chips ever made by Jack ‘n Jill. For me, its rich, cheesy and very natural flavors were just undeniably tempting that even if I don’t have that much …
Kirkland Signature Ground Sirloin and Loin of Beef Patties
I decided to buy these burgers at Costco last week. I was having a BBQ and figured I’d try them out. I’ve bought the Kirkland ground beef patties before and wasn’t thrilled by them. They’re already thin before you cook them. After you cook them …
Mee Siam
I used not to like Mee Siam. In case you are wondering what this is, it is actually a gravy type of noodles, but the very thin strips one. Not the thick noodles like your spaghetti, though.
The gravy has to be spicy for me and in …
Raley’s Fresh Deli Homestyle Meatloaf
For Christmas this year, we went an easier, more simplified route, prompted actually by trying to buy turkey a little too late in the week. Live and learn! Anyway, we ended up purchasing the ‘Homestyle Meatloaf’, a pre-packaged product under the ‘Fresh Deli’ label of Raley’s. The …
VanHouten Twinkles Chocolate beans
My 2 year old son loves it so much. Even I like to take a few at times but I mainly like the chocolate taste and thick color coated sugar coating. It tastes nice if allowed to melt inside the mouth. For me, this choolate …
Nido Nestle Powdered Milk
Nido become my favorite powdered milk when Birch Tree milk powdered was out of stock in the market. Second to Birch Tree is Nido. Nido has the taste of fresh cow’s milk. My father includes Nido whenever he is cooking white pasta. The smell of the pasta is like …
California Grown Green seedless grapes
My local store is carrying more local produce than ever before. They are supporting the farmers and growers in the Northern California region, and that’s a great thing to see. I’m really not that big of a fruit and vegetable eater, but one food that I have …
Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies
I find the Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies to be relatively decent. The brownies themselves offer a fairly decent chocolate flavor. They have chocolate icing and chocolate cake, and both offer a mild, but nonetheless enjoyable, chocolate taste. On top, are chocolate candies that come in a variety of vibrant …
Chocolate Covered Nutter Butter Cookies
These new cookies are from Nabisco and are peanut butter sandwich cookies covered with pure milk chocolate.
They remind me of a Crispy Crunch chocolate bar and are quite tasty although they don’t have the crunchy toffee in the Crispy Crunch chocolate bar, they are a delicious, creamy peanut …
Cole’s Mozzarella Filled Garlic Bread Sticks Cheesesticks
Tasty is the word that I’d use to describe these frozen sticks! Every stick is filled with mozzarella cheese and boy does that mozzarella cheese taste really good when it’s real warm and gooey! We let these sticks cool for only a few minutes after coming out of the …
Chips Ahoy Cookies
When asked what my favorite brand of cookie is I never hesitate to delightedly say “Chips Ahoy!”! I have been in love with “Chips Ahoy!” cookies for as long as I can remember. Some people will say that they only like to eat moist cookies, or cookies that are …
Cadbury Bliss chocolate bar
The Cadbury Bliss is a new chocolate bar, and one which seems to be aimed at women judging by the little advertising that I have seen for it. I am, as usual, slightly irritated by this assumption that it is only women who want a nice, comforting chocolate hit …
Meadowfresh Houmous (aka Hummus) from Lidl
I tried a 300g tub of this Houmous from Lidl for only 99p. This Meadowfresh brand seems to be Lidl’s own brand judging from the label. This is a good price for such a large tub and I was looking forward to getting home and dunking some …
Jell-o Gelatin - Mixed Fruit
Jell-o Gelatin - Mixed Fruit variety offers a delightful combination of a couple different fruits that really unleashes a whole lot of flavor with each spoonful! There is lemon flavor, cherry flavor and strawberry flavor all merged together and placed within the wobbly and delicious gelatin! I personally find …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Homemade Vanilla
Had I not tried the all-natural vanilla and French vanilla flavors first, I think I would have considered this variety to be my favorite vanilla ice cream. Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Homemade Vanilla is a delicious ice cream, but unfortunately, is is neither as rich in vanilla flavor …
RJ Rockers Brewing Co. Son of a Peach Wheat Ale
I am a big fan of wheat beers, and I’ve always enjoyed trying out beers that are infused with fruit and spice flavors; it was only a matter of time before I found Son of a Peach Wheat Ale. Because this beer has a light feel and full peach …
Lindt Chocolate Berne small chocolate
Among all the chocolates Lindt are really one of those that I can’t resist. I like chocolate but Lindt is a special kind of chocolate, they have different kinds of chocolates but as I like dark chocolate Lindt Berne is one of my favourite. Lindt Berne small chocolate comes …
365 Plain Greek Yogurt (32 oz)
Last time I went to Whole Foods, they were out of my favorite brand of Greek yogurt - Greek Gods plain - and I really wanted to get some for breakfast for the next week. I’ve tried several other brands at Whole Foods and not been impressed (including Oikos …
Euro Shopper Corn Flakes
I found Euro Shopper Corn Flakes in my local convenience store and, although I did not have much faith in them being equalled to Kellogg’s in quality, I bought them anyway as there was no other choice. These were very cheap at only 79 pence for a 375g …
Kirk’s Potato Salad
I love potato salad and usually to get the perfect potato salad I would have to make it myself. I have only ever found one potato salad that can stand up to my recipe and it is the potato salad made by a man named Kirk who sells freshly …
Chunky Sirloin Burger Soup from Albertsons
Chunky Sirloin Burger soup from Albertsons is a rich soup that is well mixed with meat and vegetables. I bought it from Albertsons where it come in can and ready to serve. The quantity was well enough for me for two servings. So I poured the rest of the …
Lucky Choco Chocolate
As I mentioned in a previous review, my favourite types and brands of chocolates and sweets are those that I do not think are sickeningly sweet. This, a part from the price of it, was one of the things that attracted me to buying “Lucky Choco Chocolates”. These are …
Milkmaid Tea
Milkmaid tea is the first nursing tea that I tried and tested without any complaint. The tea is use to boost production of breastmilk because it contains varieties of herbs that are useful for lactating mothers. I personally likes the taste but somehow my breastfeed baby does not like …
Gardenia Whole-grain Bread
I never really liked whole-wheat bread despite its nutritional benefits. I don’t like its quite bitter taste and its coarse fibers. It also smells quite off. Well indeed white bread which is made of refined flour tastes and smells better but the problem is it is not at …
Embee rice
I am a housewife and I love cooking. My husband says that the rice recipes that I make are very tasty and yummy to eat. The secret behind that is Embee rice. It is the brand name of the rice, which I use. The quality, …
Recheks Food Pride Deli Chicken
A couple nights ago, my wife and I realized neither of us was in the mood to make dinner. So, on my way home, I stopped by Recheks Food Pride here in Beaver Dam, WI and picked up some roasted chicken from their deli.
While not as good as KFC …
Del Monte Fit ‘n Right Blueberry-Grape Juice Drink
Del Monte Fit ‘n Right Blueberry-Grape, the latest variant in Del Monte’s Fit ‘n Right product line. This new variant boosts less sugar and fewer calories and when I look at the previous variants particularly the Four Season’s variant, true
enough, it has a lower sugar level, from 22g (I …
Alexia Garlic Baguette Twin Pack
Some things just go well together. Things like peanut butter and jelly, for one, taste good when eaten separately yet great when enjoyed together. Another example of two things that taste good separately yet much better when paired together is pasta or pizza and garlic bread. Adding garlic bread …
McDonalds Everyday Mcsavers
I am a very practical person. I wouldn’t buy things that would not be used for long periods of time unless it is emergency, thriftiness is what I am brought up at by my parents. When it comes to clothes, I would settle for cheap one s which has …
Vigo Italian Style Breadcrumbs
I love to cook and I don’t mind admitting I use a few shortcuts.
Here’s one of the best–one of the essentials, in my kitchen. Vigo Italian style breadcrumbs with romano cheese. This stuff saves me so much time and trouble, and makes my foods fantastic. There are so many …
Monterey Clean N’ Ready Fresh Sliced Mushrooms
After some consideration, I decided to pick up a frozen lasagna dinner from one of our local grocery stores for dinner a few nights ago (we had something else in mind, but we never got out of the house like we planned).
As part of the deal, I told my …
Meadowfresh Lemon and Coriander Houmous
I frequently buy the original houmous (or hummus) in the Meadowfresh range but I thought I would try this lemon and coriander version. I wanted to experiment by using avocado in a tortilla wrap so I thought a houmous with lemon in would be ideal as I would …
Belbake Sponge Flan Base
Everybody likes cakes and all other deserts, but making them might be really time consuming and hard and we simply cant afford to do it (or in my case being just lazy in this occasion).
I had guests announced to come to over in the afternoon and I wanted to …
