Hostess Brownie Bites
Once upon a time, whenever we packed our daughter’s school lunch, we made sure to have only the healthiest foods inside it. However, we learned she would rarely eat the entire lunch and I came to the realization I would rather have her eating something rather than making sure …
Butter Cream Crackers by Croley Foods
When I am dieting, I always stock up on crackers so that when I get hungry, I will at least have a somewhat nutritious alternative to junk food. For the longest time, I relied on Skyflakes crackers, a locally manufactured crackers which can be easily paired with anything. Recently …

Nestle Fruit Selection Yogurt+Jelly Strawberry Flavor
There are a lot of snacks available in the market that you can just grab and enjoy. However, since I’m starting to make myself better by letting go of the junk food addict that I was, I became more conscious about what I eat — from breakfast, lunch, dinner, …
Sun-Rype Fruit to Go Squiggles
These new fruit snacks come in a variety of flavors. The are 100% fruit which is great news for parents everywhere. While each piece is only 60 calories, it also has 15 grams of sugar and you can definitely taste it.
These fruit snacks are almost sickeningly sweet to me …
Weet-bix (New Zealand cereal bar)
A lot of cereals out there are becoming more and more unhealthy. Some would claim to be low fat although they’re packed with so much sugar! While others are simply high in carbohydrates and GI! Weet-bix, however, is one cereal that I found to be healthy, tasty and satisfying.
They …
Haggen Lemon Poppy Seed Muffin
I love muffins and I’m pleased to see the trend toward overly large, too sweet muffins seems to be coming to a close. Muffins are supposed to be a bread, not a cupcake.
Haggen Foods here in Bellingham seems to be correcting its previous tendency of cakeness and I am …
Nescafe Tasters Choice Instant Coffee
Nescafe Tasters Choice Instant coffee is some of the best tasting instant coffee you can buy. I personally prefer my coffee roasted, but in a pinch instant will do. I have tried many different brands and always end up coming back to Tasters Choice. It has a very nice …
Genisoy Soy Protein Bars
I started eating Genisoy Soy Protein bars because a diet I went on required me to eat a soy protein bar with some fruit for lunch. I live in a rural town, so it was hard for me to find any soy protein bars. I have found that a …
Taco Bell Chicken Soft Taco (Canada)
The Taco Bell chicken soft taco (Canadian version) makes for a nice lunch. It contains seasoned chicken, lettuce, tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, and avacado ranch dressing in a white flour tortilla. The flavors are well balanced but maybe a little salty. The avacado ranch dressing is really the star …

Oishi’s Gourmet Picks Potato Chips
I maybe health conscious, but I am not that hardcore when it comes to health. I am also human, I also crave for something salty and I also crave for sweets.
Moving on with my review.. I am going review this new product from Oishi called “Gourmet Picks Potato …

Molinaro’s Frozen Pizza
We purchased a double pak of party sized Molinaro’s pepperoni pizza today for dinner for a small group and thought it was a great deal at only $10 for 2 big rectangular pizzas.
They take 6-8 minutes in a 425 degree oven and are cooked frozen.
Normally, a frozen pizza half …
Jack in the Box Chocolate Overload Cake
Recently I was in the mood for a simple dessert and I noticed that Jack in the Box actually had something called Chocolate Overload Cake. I’d never ordered it before and, in fact, had no idea that they even had this kind of dessert available. Naturally, I …

Wrapsody is a kind of pastry which is a bit similar to baklava but is made of pili nuts. The pili nut is one of the rarest nuts in the world. The Bicol region of the Philippines is especially known for the nut, and is where the …
hint - Watermelon
The watermelon flavored water sold by hint is not one of my favorite drinks out of all the flavored water drinks sold by hint, but, I have tasted worse from the company, so I would have to say then that this flavor is just about average according to my …
Sue Bee Organic Honey
Honey has lots of health benefits though it can increase your appetite. I sometimes include one teaspoon of honey when I drink milk. I use this a substitute for sugar because it is healthy and has good effects especially to the throat. I was in search of organic honey …
Mission Deli Hand-Shaped Plain Naan Bread
I thought I would review this naan bread because it is particularly fluffy and fresh and also because it was very cheap to buy. At Morrisons, they are currently selling this naan bread on special offer of two packets for the price of one, one packet costing about …
Great Value Pecan Rolls
My wife recently bought a box of pecan rolls from the brand Great Value for $1. We weren’t really expecting too much from this product; mostly because of the price and because we don’t really trust our Walmart when it comes to food items, but, I have to admit, …
Publix Sliced Pork Tenderloin in Schechwan Style Sauce
I am the only member of my family who eats pork and I am not much of a cook. I have noticed an increase prepared foods in my local Publix supermarket so I spent some time on a recent shopping trip to look more closely in the refrigerator …
Lays - Nori Seaweed flavor
I like snack, especilly crunhy and salty snack, like this one, Laya with nori seaweed flavor. I always buy it when I watch some movie in cinema or just wanna eat some snack when I’m bored. Lays available in 3 package, but usually I buy it in 18 gr …
Nestle Nesvita Cereal Milk Drink
I have always subscribed to the health advice that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I always make sure that I eat enough and get the right kind of nutrients I need to get through the day. I can feel the effects of skipping breakfast by …
Nestle Rolos
I have a major sweet tooth and I remember the first time I saw Nestle Rolos. I had went on vacation and encountered this candy which was in a package shaped just like the a small piece of pipe or tube, maybe about five inches long and when I …
Betty Crocker - Peanut Butter Brownies
Betty Crocker - Peanut Butter Brownies did not turn out to be as tasty as I expected them to be. I really felt that there was very little chance I would be disappointed with this mix because I am typically very satisfied with Betty Crocker products. This time, however, …
KC Candy Dinner Mint
When I first saw the KC Candy Dinner Mint, I had mistaken it for a particular mint my aunt used to bring from abroad when I was little, that had chocolate in the middle. At the time I hated mints with a passion, and the one with chocolate inside …
Splenda
I have replaced sugar in our home with Splenda. I found that this product contains the same sweetness that sugar did, but it is healthier for you. Splenda comes in small packages that are pre measured. I add it to my tea in the morning …
Lady fingers Savoiari
From since I can remember my mother was always buying this biscuits for me and my sister when we were little and that’s why I call them baby cookies although I don’t actually know it they are really for babies of if my mother was just buying them to …
Haggen Carrot Raisin Muffin
The supermarket closest to where I work is a Haggen store, a local chain that is spreading southward and eastward from here in Bellingham where the first store is. These are excellent stores each with their own bakery so the breads, pastry and muffins are fresh daily.
This is one …
Jack in the Box: Sirloin Burger
The new Jack in the Box Sirloin Burger is just great. I had one the other day for lunch and it has got to be one of the best steak burgers I have ever had. It was very good and juicy. The burger was fresh and still warm when …
Chick-fil-A Biscuit
Chick-fil-A Biscuit is just that: a biscuit. Nothing comes on it and nothing comes with it. I order one on occasion to go with some other breakfast item at the fast food restaurant because I personally think that Chick-fil-A has just about the best biscuits out of any of …
Haagen Daz Vanilla Caramel Brownie Ice Cream
I recently had the pleasure of trying a pint of Haagen Daz’s Vanilla Caramel Brownie Ice Cream and I savoured every bite! This ice cream consists of exactly what the title entails. It is smooth, creamy, rich and beautifully flavoured vanilla ice cream with swirls of caramel and chunks …
Jollibee Palabok and Chicken
Today I had an amazing meal at Jollibee. Not that I hated or loved their meals but it was just today that I truly enjoyed the Palabok and Chicken Meal I had with this local fast food chain. Well of course I have had this but it is today …
Planters Trail Mix Spicy Nuts & Cajun Sticks
Although this trail mix has the word “spicy” in its name, I really don’t find this trail mix to be overly spicy. There’s a definite degree of hotness and sharpness to the trail mix, but it’s not enough to really set my mouth on fire or anything. It’s kind …
Post Raisin Bran Cereal
I’ve been eating Post Raisin Bran Cereal for thirty years! My family eats it now too. This cereal is certainly a staple in our family, as it was in my family when I was growing up. They put lots of big juicy raisins in the box …
Holy Crap health food
This is a great health food. I first found out about it on Dragon’s Den where they pitched the idea to entrepreneurs and sold the product very well.
This cereal is really healthy for you. It has organic dried fruit, chia, hemp seeds and buckwheat, which make it …
Energy Sumseeds: Energized Sunflower Seeds
I first came accross these seeds at a local Valero Gas station in Porter, Tx and decided to give them a try seeing how the label boasted its jumbo sized sunflower seeds that had caffeine, ginseng, taurine and lysine. I first tried the Original flavor and made my way …
Algida Carte d’Or Chocolate with orange
Algida always has great ice creams and they are not very expensive, the price goes 3.50 Euro to 5 Euro. Sometimes I even manage to find them for 2.80 Euro when they are on discount but that’s not very often. I am talking about 500g containers of regular Algida …
Jell-o Pudding - Oreo
Jell-o Pudding - Oreo is certainly not quite as delicious as the instant boxed pudding, in my opinion. The boxed instant pudding variety seems to offer a richer and more delicious flavor where as this ready-made pudding comes across as being a little more on the dull side for …
Hormel Compleats Spaghetti
Recently, I tried Hormel Compleats Spaghetti with meat sauce. I’ve always enjoyed Hormel products and feel it is a quality brand with a taste I enjoy. Since spaghetti is my all-time favorite food, and this promised a meal in 90 seconds, I just had to try it.
The …
Harvey Fresh UHT Long Life Lactose Free Milk
I love to eat cereals as my breakfast, but unfortunately, since I am asian, I do have lactose-intolerance. Eating dairy products, like even the simplest ice cream will definitely send me to the comfort room because I would often have cramps and suffer from diarrhea. I do indulge from …
Montreal Dairy Queen
Who doesn’t enjoy a tasty ice-cream to remember the hot summer days that are now behind us? That is exactly what I wanted to do yesterday. My girls had been asking to go for the past week and I finally decided that it would be a nice …
Nash Brothers Organic Microwave Popcorn
Product Description: Box of three bags of microwave popcorn. I found this at one of our local grocery stores for about $2.50.
What I liked about this product: One of the things that attracted me to this brand to start with was the price. I love it when I can …
Auntie Anne’s Sour Cream and Onion Pretzel
As an avid snack indulger, I enjoy the treat of a fine soft pretzel any time, any day. So when I happened upon Auntie Anne’s I decided to take advantage of my snack craving and give in to my stomach. At the time, they were running a deal: half …
Hamper Corned Beef
I received a can of Hamper Corned Beef two weeks ago from a package I got from Australia. Hamper is a subsidy of Heinz Foods. Corned beef has been a breakfast favorite here in my country. It is one of my favorite viands and I always savor this food. …
Scoopy’s Cake Cups
This product may be called Scoopy’s Cake Cups, but I refer to them as ice cream cones. That’s what they are to me. I honestly don’t know if this is the brand my family purchased often in years past because it’s been a very long time since …
Klondike Original Ice Cream
This brand of ice cream is one of those I like. Although I buy this regularly when I go shopping, this is not my best choice of ice cream. It is cheaper though compared to my favorite one so I still buy it and stock it in our fridge. …
Mrs. Freshley’s Red Velvet Creme Cakes
I did not find anything all that remarkable or special about Mrs. Freshley’s Red Velvet Creme Cakes. I really did not find anything at all, actually, when it came to this snack. Just like with the pink snowballs, the food coloring makes for an attractive eye catcher, but other …
