The Philadelphia pineapple cream cheese has got to be my favorite of all the cream cheeses. I love how the pineapple sweetness infuses itself in the cream cheese without taking over completely.
I mainly purchase the Philadelphia pineapple cream cheese as a spread for my bagels. I get them from …

Today I am going to be reviewing Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA. I love regular Sierra Nevada Pale Ale but the IPA version is just awesome. I can still remember the first day I tried one at my friends house. The taste of it was so good when it was …

I really like Cheerios. They arn’t a particuarly flavorful cereal, but there is somehting about them that is still a little familiar and tasty to me. I’ve been eating cheerios for ears, possibly since I was small. They dont have all the sugar that other cereals have, and really …

I’m not that big of a Labatt’s fan. Generally my beer of choice would be Corona, if I’m gonna drink anything. However, I have to admit that Labatt’s Honey Lager is a delicious beer. And with their no-name competition (Lakeport Honey Lager) being so cheap, it …

Alaska Condensed Milk is another great product of Alaska Milk Corporation. I think their Condensed Milk has not been matched by any other brand. This brand has been the number one brand in the market for many years because as I myself have proven it really makes a big …

I love to cook desserts. I like to create desserts even when it’s not the holidays. You will be surprised at how many good recipes call for vanilla extract. I’ve tried several brands of vanilla extract but none compare to McCormick Vanilla Extract.
When I take the …

I was not particularly wowed by “Hunt’s Chunky Vegetable Spaghetti Sauce” and actually, I was rather disappointed when I took a taste of this spaghetti sauce along with my pasta. I must say, I don’t quite know where they got “chunky” from, because I didn’t see any chunky …

So…how does this latest “commandeered …

Nalley’s “Garlic, Dill & Onions Petites” are a very good small pickle with lots of flavor that are available for a pretty good price. I think they are very similar to their, more expensive French cousins, the cornichon, but are more readily available and usually about half the price.
I think …
