Belvita Kleija Biscuits with Cardamom
I am going to share something really yummy I experienced just recently. Before going any further, let me confess I am highly addicted to tea. Even if someone offers me a cup of tea in the middle of night, I am always ready to it. But I have to …
Laughing Cow Cheese Garlic & Herb
Ever since I heard about Laughing Cow cheese wedges I had to try them. I can’t believe they are only 35 calories per wedge, and I can actually enjoy cheese without feeling guilty about it or feeling like I am undoing all the work I spend eating right and …

Lucky Me Mac and Cheese
We were in the supermarket when my daughter grabbed this Lucky Me Mac and Cheese and requested to buy it for her. Seeing it from a tv commercial made her want it so much. And so I bought a couple of packs at 15 pesos (if …
Cass beer
Cass, the premier beer of Korea. It’s generally accepted to be a mild beer, lighter in taste, and lacking in flavor. It’s the kind of beer perfect for drinking games as you can chug large amounts and never mind that your taste buds haven’t felt a thing. However, the …
Spaans Lemon Chiffon Sugar-Free Cookies
Guess what? The Holiday Season 2014 is here! (Yipee.)
Your “level of yip and ee” may vary depending on your level of necessary preparedness for the season. Family, fun, presents and treat temptations galore right? We all know the score. I bring that first part up because, as per …
Ting grapefruit soda
I’d never even heard of Ting before I tried it in St. Thomas, but it was a taste I won’t soon forget, because it was suprisingly tasty, and I definitely wanted more. It’s a grapefruit soda flavored with Jamaican grapefruit, and it’s most commonly served in small green …
Marie Callenders Cranberry Orange Muffin Mix
I tried another one of the Marie Callender Muffin Mix for the use of dessert after a meal. I was curious about this flavor, since its cranberry and orange. Two flavors that are both strong and unique in their own right. My initial thoughts were that someone was seriously experimenting …
Tesco Crumpets
These crumpets from Tesco’s own range are very good value indeed at only 79 pence for a packet of twelve. Because I like to root around on the ‘reduced price’ shelves at Tesco, I managed to get a packet today for only 40 pence so I am even …
Blue Bell Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Half Gallon Ice Cream
When it comes to chocolate chip cookie dough, I am completely obsessed with it. If it wasn’t for the FDA or the CDC saying eating raw cookie dough can put you at risk for E. coli, I’d probably consume it on a regular. So, imagine the joy on my …
3Musketeers Chocolate Bar
I am so puzzled how many people could love this bar so much! There’s nothing really into it. I have tasted so many chocolate bars, and the 3Musketters is just one of the less than ordinary ones I have ever tried. It is not anything you would go crazy …
Van’s Natural Foods 8 Whole Grains Waffles
I didn’t care too much for these waffles. I decided to give them a try because of the heart-healthy whole grains being a major ingredient in these waffles, but what bothered me about them is they tasted saltier than the waffles I’m used to, namely the Kroger Multigrain Waffles. …
Pepsi Throwback
Pepsi recently came out with a new Throw Back variety for both Pepsi and Mountain Dew. The drinks are made the way they used to be; with real sugar.
I had the Mountain Dew version of the drink several weeks ago and was left unimpressed with it. But, since my …
Mrs. Freshley’s Summer: Racing Chocolate Cupcakes
Like with other treats made by Mrs. Freshley’s with a special seasonal name, pay no attention to the name because there is nothing special about the treats. For example, Mrs. Freshley’s Summer: Racing Chocolate Cupcakes are nothing but chocolate covered and creme filled cupcakes that look and taste a …

Sports drinks are like my best friends because such beverages give me comfort after an extremely tiring activity. 100 Plus Isotonic Sports Drink is no different. It is the newest sports drink out in the market and I decided to try it after watching its very compelling advertisement on …
Dillman Farm - All Natural Pear Butter Fruit Spread
Dillman Farm - All Natural Pear Butter Fruit Spread is a flavor variety that I did not particularly care a whole lot for. Although pears are not something that I find myself craving too often, I have tried to include more in my diet because of the health benefits …
Nescafe Partners Blend Instant Coffee
Nescafe Partners Blend Instant Coffee is a decent instant coffee with a very smooth taste, but for me it just lacks in something. I am not sure if I am saying that it lacks in body or in strength, but for me, even if I put a really …

Kellogg’s Special K20 Pink Lemonade Protein Water Mix
I know, the name really does not sound all that appealing, does it? This drink is actually pretty good and refreshing, but the real reason that I drink it regularly is because it provides me with a good source of protein and fiber. I am able to get both …
Cadbury Star Bar
Cadbury’s Star Bar is one of my favourite chocolate bars. Before writing this review, I nipped onto Wikipedia to remind myself when they first came out as I have been buying these regularly since the 1980s. Interestingly, it pointed out that this Star Bar only exists because …
ENSURE 8oz. Nutritional snack or meal
Ever since I tried the Ensure nutritional supplement, I have been hooked! The 8oz. bottle is the perfect size for a snack or meal replacement for people on the go or just want to have a great tasting snack. There are 4 or 5 different flavors, …
Vindi, Apple Juice Drink
This juice is excellent specially when it is cold from the fridge, it is so refreshing but it is a bit less perfect than I expected. I like it because it isn’t dense and it is very clear, you really don’t feel it is sweet while you drink it …
Simply Cereal All Swiss
Simply Cereal All Swiss (munch more muesli) is the perfect breakfast cereal for health advocates. Apart from whole grain muesli, it contains a variety of fruits, nuts and even pumpkin seeds. It is cholesterol-free, low in fat and high in fiber.
All Swiss goes well with milk and yoghurt, and …
Gavrilovic liver pate
If there’s some food that I really hate that’s liver. I remember my mother was preparing that when I was younger and I hated it and I was making scenes because I didn’t wanna eat it. I still hate it today and I never eat it. Well except in …
Ice Breakers ice cubes gum- raspberry sorbet
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, …
Captain Crunch Cereal
Captain Crunch Cereal has been around unchanged for several decades. It is easy to see why when you taste it. There are other forms of Captain Crunch (Peanut Butter, Crunch Berries, even a chocolate one now) but the original Captain Crunch cereal, in the red box, remains the best.
Moms …
Kraft Fresh Take Rosemary and Roasted Garlic Seasoning Mix
I bought this product from Kroger on sale for $2.35 this past October hanging in the refrigerated cheese section and I thought it would be an easy way to switch up the chicken that I was going to make for dinner that night. It comes with all the bread …
St. Marys Barbeque Cassava Chips
I can count on one hand the number of times that I have ever tried cassava chips, but out of those few times, I had never gotten to try “St. Mary’s Cassava Chips”. However, just recently I had gotten to try the St. Mary’s Barbeque Cassava Chips after a …
Rolo Hot Chocolate drink mix
Because I don’t often drink coffee, I drink hot chocolate a lot. So we’ve been trying different hot chocolate mixes to keep in the kitchen so I can make a hot chocolate at home in the morning.
Since I like Rolo candies…and really, any combination involving caramel and chocolate, …
Rollerz NewPark Mall Newark CA
So I stopped by Rollerz at the New Park Mall today to get an Icee drink. I think this place is really cool, they have just about everything at Rollerz. They have ice cream cones, fruit smoothies and my personal favorite Icee’s. Now they prices are kind of expensive …
Tesco Value Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce
I was made redundant last year and found myself having to live on a very low income for a while. During this time I had to learn how to make my money go a lot further, and this is when I tried out the incredibly cheap Tesco Value …
Milka Snowballs
Although Milka Snowballs look as if they were intended for children I was really excited when I saw them at the store. They were not cheap, I paid three Euro for four chocolate balls but I just had to try them. They looked so appealing at the store that I …
Idahoan Four Cheese Mashed Potatoes
I’ve been wanting to try Idahoan Four Cheese Mashed Potatoes for a very long time, but only just recently decided to give it a go. As my readers know, convenience is my driving goal with foods, from preparation to cooking and through cleanup. I judge just about …

Kashi GOLEAN Toasted Berry Crumble Cereal
I love yogurt with granola sprinkled over the top, but I wanted to try something new so I bought a box of the Kashi GOLEAN Toasted Berry Crumble Cereal and sprinkled a cup of that cereal over my plain yogurt instead with some fresh berries. To my surprise it …
Green Giant Chopped Spinach
This is a frozen boxed food that doesn’t have any sauce at all. It’s just spinach, plain and simple. While this frozen boxed spinach can’t compare with fresh spinach found in the produce section at supermarkets, it’s not that bad. The spinach in this box isn’t all chopped up …
Wrigley’s Airways chewing gum
I like chewing gum but not all of them and Wrigly’s Airways is one of the chewing gum that I don’t like.
I know this is very popular chewing gum and that you can see the commercials on TV all the time but I don’t like it. There are different …
Jell-o Gelatin - Lemon
Jell-o Gelatin - Lemon variety is simply scrumptious and I really enjoy having this gelatin treat no matter what time of the year it is! The lemon flavor tastes as if it is derived from real lemons and not a product of artificially flavored garbage. Real lemon flavor is …
Candylicious Milk Fudge
Here in Trinidad fudge is definitely different from the stuff I have had in the USA. One day while walking through the mall I saw a candy stall which was selling a variety of sweets and even preserves and they had this freshly made fudge. It came in all …
Sun Pat smooth peanut butter

Bondis Vanillin powdered sugar
I use large quantities of Vanillin powdered sugar because I like my cookies and cakes to have this great fragrance of vanilla so I put it everywhere. Vanillin powdered sugar usually comes in small bags of 5g and it is not very cheap so I was really surprised to …
Dog On It
Dog On It is the name of a beverage that I found in our local United Grocery Outlet the last time I went shopping for groceries. I have to admit that the name makes me think of something that appeals more to kids rather than adults. However it is …
Golden Grahams Cereal
I am absolutely addicted to this stuff. I even get cravings for it. This cereal has not only become my primary breakfast food but it has also become my mid morning snack, afternoon snack, evening snack, and late night snack. I know I have a serious problem. But seriously. …
