Despite all the fancy and colorful coloring, these Little Debbie Easter Egg Brownies are really no different from Little Debbie’s other brownie products, like the fudge and cosmic varieties. The brownie is the same as is the flavor, essentially. The only difference pretty much is the colorful Easter design …

The new McDonald’s Premium Roast Coffee is way better then the old kind. I thought their old coffee was OK but this new McDonald’s Premium Roast Coffee is just great. I really like the freshness of the coffee. Also the taste is very good. In fact I think this coffee …

There’s not much difference in the number of calories in “Cooper’s Lite Garlic Texas Toast” and “Cooper’s Garlic Texas Toast”. The difference is thirty calories, actually. There’s also fifty percent less fat, but the fat content isn’t as significant as the calorie content, and the number of calories difference …

Entenmann’s Frosted Pop’ems are essentially small and compacted donuts that lack an opening in the center. Only one or two bites are required before these pop’ems are no more. They are quite small and ideal for snacking. Well, they would be ideal if the frosted pop’ems had a better …

I’ve been buying sundae cups for many years and I’ve purchased different brands of them as well. For the first time, I purchased Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Sundae Cups. Sunnyside Farms is a store brand, and it’s one I’ve never been fond of. Still, every now and …

Now I am going to write a little about the sugar free natura, which is a very good substitute to the sugar. Those patients who have the complaint of high sugar in their body basically use it. And not only that, the sugar free natura is also …

Fresh artichokes are often expensive and what’s worse, it is a seasonal vegetable which you can only find when it is in “season”. When my husband asks for artichokes, I buy the Goldcrest Artichoke Bottoms which are in cans. The can is very practical to have as you don’t …

This is the most gorgeous breakfast cereal from Marks & Spencers. The only problem is that it is so nice I tend to nibble at it straight out of the box with my fingers. You can buy a 500g box of Deliciously Nutty Crunch for £2.19. …

Malt O-Meal bagged cereals are the only cereals I purchase anymore. Once I discovered the goodness and low cost of Malt O-Meal Bagged cerals, I have not bought anything else. Malt O-Meal has always been a brand I trust, and you cannot beat the bagged cereal.
My kids go through …

Albertsons Frozen Mixed Vegetables are enjoyable in some ways and disappointing in other ways. For example, the corn and carrots are both on the dull side. The carrots have at least some flavor, but the corn might as well not even be there because they contribute nothing, pretty much. …

Voortman Turnover Soft Cookies are one of my favorite kinds of cookies. I usually purchase the strawberry flavored ones, but this week decided to try the blueberry flavored ones. These cookies are delicious, soft cookies with a dollop of fruit flavored jelly in the middle of them. The jelly …

I tried one of their Café Steamers products, Cajun Chicken & Shrimp, and had a positive experience. But I was curious to see how this steaming process would work with pasta. The Chicken Margherita has angel hair pasta with grilled chicken and tomatoes in a balsamic vinaigrette …

If you’ve ever eaten a Hot Pocket before, and I would say odds are a majority of people have considering how long the brand has been around and how popular it is, then the Bremer Meatball and Mozzarella Hot Stuffed Sandwiches will look quite familiar and even taste similar …

Novi is an Italian chocolate although people usually think that it is Swiss, but it isn’t. I like Novi chocolate in general because they taste great, although the regular Novi chocolate is not as good as Novie Nocciolato. The difference is that Nocciolato has whole hazelnuts in it and …

I thought Supportan drink was just another coffee drink but it had something else to offer. One time, somebody gave me one bottle of it and I was so out of it. The packaging and the entire appearance looked like another cold coffee beverage. This is manufactured by the pharmaceutical …

I typically like microwave/oven made meals so I decided to try Marie Callender’s Fettuccini Alfredo with Garlic Bread. I was really not pleased with this product.

Minute Maid’s Pulpy Orange is an orange drink with a new twist. The name says it all. It contains natural orange pulp that sets it apart from regular commercialized orange juices. It just took me one sip to know that this drink would be a regular in our fridge. …

This firehouse recipe was handed down to me from a dear friend of mine who used to be a fire chief on the mainland before he passed away. I feel so fortunate to have been able to get this cherished recipe from him before he left us. …

Rich’s Ice Cream Vanilla Sandwich Low Fat is not that bad really. For a low fat product, this ice cream sandwich really retains a whole lot of flavor, quite surprisingly. The vanilla is fairly rich and creamy and even though the vanilla flavor is slightly subdued due to the …

Blue Bunny Classic Sundae Ice Cream Cones are definitely a disappointment in my book. The reason that I was disappointed with these cones is really very simple: the flavor is not all that delicious or rich. Everything about this cone, with the exception of the chopped peanuts, leave a …

There is just something scrumptious about hummus. Ever since being introduced to the lovely dip, I haven’t been the same since. In this case I decided to try The Fresh Hummus Co. Spinach Artichoke Hummus.
In the beginning, the thought of the two very distinct vegetables in this dip …

So I finally tried the Primo Supremo Pizza the other day. And let me tell you it is great! I really loved the taste of the tomatoes. The twisted crust with cheese and pepperoni was to die for. The onions they put on the Primo Supremo Pizza are just …

Cinnamon Rolls, these are great bread that smells very nice too. For some reason, I am not a fan of this kind of pastry because I think the smell is just too strong. There are a lot of bakeshops offering cinnamons and anything close to that like cinnamon sticks …

A large, 300-gram bag of Arnott’s Shapes was given to me by a friend recently. It was the first time I saw and tasted this product as it has never really been available in the grocery stores I frequent: Shopwise and Waltermart, both in Makati City.
Arnott’s Shapes is …

As a newborn vegan, I don’t really miss the cheese. I don’t ever crave it, my taste buds have pretty much changed, but melted cheese is still my greatest weakness. As soon as I went vegan, I started looking for the cheese alternative that melts. I have already tried the …
