Imagine hiking along a section of the Appalachian trail on a blistery hot summer day. You stop by a cool mountain stream and sit down on a rock to pull out some Neapolitan ice cream for a snack. Now thanks to Mountain House that is possible. They have created …

I love bagels with a good savory cream cheese spread. Usually I make my own but I was pressed for time and bought a flavored one, Rondele Bagel Temptations: Garlic and Herbs Flavor. The price for this product was more than twice the amount I would have paid for …

With all the frozen varieties of Marie Callender’s that I’ve purchased over the years, I have never chosen one that has a pork chop in it. I love pork chops, but for some reason, I haven’t purchased them in any frozen capacity. However, I’ve been doing a …

This bottled water brand is one that I have only spotted at Aldi, a store that carries primarily generics and off brands. Not only does this water taste pretty much the same compared with other bottled waters, but it is also sold at a price that is generally thirty …

I’m sure most people have heard of Haagan Dazs. They make some really good ice creams with exotic flavors. The difference between Haagan Dazs and Ben and Jerry’s ice creams, aside from the flavors and names is that Ben and Jerry’s angle is fun and creativity. Whereas Haagan Dazs …

I really do love Orville Redenbacher’s Gourmet Popping Corn, but I’ve rarely tried any of the various flavors except for butter flavors. However, I had a chance to try their new Cheddar Cheese variety and decided to give it a shot.
I was actually surprised how much I liked …

I had never bought Cadbury’s Original Drinking Chocolate before recently because I always used other types of hot chocolate or cocoa powders to make my drink in the morning or night. I was prompted to purchase a canister of Cadbury’s Original Drinking Chocolate after looking at a recipe for …

Doral is a middle tier cigarette maker. They don’t quite reach the ranks of, say, Marlboro or Camel, but they aren’t a cheapie generic brand either: they are comfortably in the middle. So when I recently bought a pack of Doral Lights, I was expecting a pretty …

Ice Breakers Ice Cubes gum has been quite popular in my area for some time. I had not tried it until the other day when I was at my local Wal-Mart and I saw that they had a flavor I thought I would love. I am a berry fanatic, …

I ran into these cookies, almost literally at my work, and they caught my attention almost immediately. I picked the package up to get a closer look. I was like wow shortbread cookies with a creamy fudge center. Sounds good.
I have always been a big fan …

This flavor caught my eyes very unexpectedly when I was shopping at Albertsons. And with around a dollar off from regular price, I decided to give Albertsons Banana Nut ice cream a try instead of my usual brands of Breyer’s and Dreyer’s. The experience of tasting this ice cream …

There are not many things that can compare to the taste of that fresh cup of coffee in the morning, holding the mug in your hand and enjoying the rich taste and smell that fills the room and wakes you up. Well, if you’re looking for that kind of …

Is it me, or is a Big Mac vastly over rated? It is always my burger or choice but only because of it’s size. When I go to a McDonalds I need something that is going to stand a chance of filling me up and at least a Big …

This is a decent variety pack with two tasty flavors, but unfortunately the flavors are not evenly split for some peculiar reason. There are thirty-two strawberry bars but just sixteen apple-cinnamon bars. I wish that the variety pack was an even split down the middle, but oh well. I …

I really like the flavor, the convenience, and the …

I think the ripe fruity flavor of peaches is great when combined with rich black tea. I tried this tea at my local Caribou Coffee out of a desire to find out how well they would mix these flavors together.
I think really well-made, simple black tea is a wonderful …

Stevia in the Raw is a product I was introduced to by a good friend. As the days go by I am leaning away from traditional ways of sweetening my beverages and foods. I do not like artificial sweeteners, simply because they are disgusting and I try to stay …

If not, let me be the first to introduce you.
For a lot of people, their idea of “hot sauce” usually consists of tobasco or some …

I have always been a fan of Diet Sprite and 7-Up. When I saw Sierra Mist on sale in the grocery store I decided to see if it was a similar product. It looks to be, judging by the packaging. It’s not a drink that has been available here for …

Associated with the Weight Watchers weight loss program, the Smart Ones frozen entrees are, in my opinion, some of the tastiest frozen entrees around — at least when comparing those that have reduced fat and calorie counts. If you are on the Weight Watchers weight loss program, another …

I tried the chicken pomadoro today for lunch and really enjoyed it. I have to say though, that it is not my favorite. First, the things I enjoyed about it . I liked the pasta, but I always like pasta, because it filled me up. It …

Ok I am going to be honest with you 211 Steel Reserve does not tastes good. If you can not handle drinking 40oz’s then this beer is not for you. But if you are just looking for a great buzz for cheap then this is the beer for you.

Most of the time, I always have a light breakfast. I don’t eat much rice or bread. I prefer eating cereals. I have tried different cereals in the market. We all know that cereals are good source for fiber food. They help in maintaining a good digestion especially if …

Here I go again, back to my worst vice drinking too much alcohol. I am not the type of girl who party a lot but during different occasions, I can be spotted drinking beers with the guys. I also drink other hard drinks and ladies drink, but …

I’m not quite as wild about this vegetable medley, compared with the others sold under the Great Value brand at Walmart in the can and in the frozen food section. First of all, neither the cauliflower nor the broccoli taste like much. They’re both somewhat bland, and what flavor …

One of my favorite things on the menu at Jack n the Box is their strawberry milkshake. The first time I had one was a few months ago and since then I’ve made it a treat to get one every time I stop by the fast food restaurant. In …

Aunt Jemima Butter Rich Syrup has a distinctive flavor to it that separates it from the original syrup. The main difference is this syrup has a very real butter flavor integrated with the normal syrup flavor. The butter flavor is most certainly rich and real, however, that did not …

Although Mrs. Freshley’s Easter: Cottontail Snowballs are only around for about one month of the year, I find that to be okay because there is nothing special about these snowballs. I can purchase snowballs at any time of the year and they are pretty much identical to these. The …

I am a person who loves my milk and when I was younger I used to drink Nestle’s White Lily milk quite often. The quality back then was very rich and worth the money. But as time progressed the quality dropped but the prices raised.
The other day I …

I love popcorn and watching movies, so when I picked up some videos at Blockbuster Video I also grabbed some popcorn from my local grocery store. I love lots of butter on my popcorn so the “movie theater butter” flavor really appealed to me.
