Marie Callender’s Scalloped Potatoes & Ham
Marie Callender’s Scalloped Potatoes & Ham was simply awesome. This is one of Marie Callender’s new varieties of frozen foods. I’ve been so happy to see new choices out there. It’s actually made me excited to have more choice.
I eat a lot of frozen foods and …
Kool-Aid Jammers - Kiwi Strawberry
Fruit juice drink packets, marketed chiefly towards kids, are very popular these days. I’m an adult, but I love these products myself. However, quality and taste are vastly differently among the various brands out there. For me, the clear winner, and my favorite, are Kool-Aid Jammers, …
Fruit Juice Sticks candy
Some time ago before my brother went on his summer holidays, I was waiting for him to finish classes and since I was feeling a little on the peckish side, I ended up buying a fairly cheap and unusual candy to snack on meanwhile. The name of it that …
Earth’s Pride All Natural Orchard Blend
I love snacking on my snacks, but they have to be very healthy because I cannot just eat anything due to my autoimmune disease and food allergies. One of the snacks I recently purchased and have been snacking on a lot in between meals to help keep my tummy …
Mama Cozzi Pizza
I buy a lot of items at Aldi’s grocery stores. Most are pretty good and, save me money. However, they have a frozen pizza line called Mama Cozzi that is really disappointing. In my 6 year old daughter’s opinion (which I value highly), the final verdict is “Eweeyuck!” I …
Archer Farms Muesli Cereal
A few days ago I bought a container of this cereal from Target. I say container because it does not come in a box but in an oval stiff-sided contraption with a hard plastic lid. I admit to being attracted to the image of the cereal on the front …
Warburtons Milk Roll White Bread
I have never been quite sure what milk roll is, but I have eaten it before as I like to try lots of different breads. I tried this milk roll from the Warburtons brand and I did enjoy it. This is a 400g loaf of white bread …
Earthly Choice Organic chia seeds
I’ve been trying to introduce different types of superfoods into my diet, but I’m not the kind of person who would eat something that tastes like s*** just because it’s heathy and supposedly good for me. I believe that you just need to find the foods that you like and …
Cherry jam, Zuegg 700g
I went to the store about a month ago and I saw Zuegg jams were on a discount, 1,50 Euro for 700g of jam. I immediately took 3 different flavours, apricot, strawberry and cherry. Today I will write a review about the cherry one.
I must say that I was …
Susan Baker Chinese Green Tea
I have tried almost all brands of green tea ever since I included this beverage for my daily health ritual. I have tried Twining’s with all the different varieties–mint, earl grey, jasmine and many more. I also tried Lipton’s version–citrus and mint. If you are trying flavored green tea, …
Robert Timms Coffee Bags
I have been using Robert Timms Coffee bags now for a few weeks and I love them. I have tried the following Flavours, Vanilla, Hazelnut and Mocha.
You will find these flavours at your local supermarket such as Woolworths, Bilo, Coles etc near the coffee., tea sections. They sell them …
Jollibee Party Package
Who doesn’t want to have an extravagant birthday party for their kids,especially when it happens to be their first birthday to celebrate? I think all of us will agree that we want it. This was what my Aunt wanted when she decided to let Jollibe handle the first birthday …
Galaxy Bubbles Milk Chocolate
We all know what lovely Galaxy milk chocolate tastes like as it has been around for ages —“ creamy and smooth —“ but this is Galaxy in a new form and I think it works well. Put it this way, I bought a packet of 4 of these …
Atlas beer
I don’t usually drink beer, actually I drink alcohol very rarely but somehow I really like to drink it when I am home alone, and as I am home alone really rarely that’s why I drink rarely. Today I was passing near a shop and I decided to buy …
Kraft Easy Mac
I am all about Kraft’s new Easy Mac. It, quite simply, is small bags of noodles and when added to water and microwaved, they boil. Once that task is accomplished, you simply add the enclosed container of powder, and …….wala! You have yourself a perfect single …
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Yellow Cakes
I found these Little Debbie 100 Calorie Yellow Cakes to be pretty average in flavor. If you have ever had a regular yellow cake before, you know that the flavor is inherently none too impressive, but it can make for a light and fluffy snack that does not spike …
Kissables candy
Hershey’s new Kissables candies are just adorable, if you ask me. They are like miniature, colored Hershey’s Kisses with some personality and bling to them! They are a candy-coated chocolate product that live up to their cute disposition, too! They’re tasty and just by eating a …
Parade Cotton Candy
One of the bests things about carnivals and fairs is the cotton candy. I just love it to pieces. Unfortunately, I don’t get to attend those events often, which means enjoying cotton candy has been almost nonexistent. A few months ago, though, I saw an offering online …
Powerade: Sour Melon
Powerade: Sour Melon is one of the newer flavors of the powerade family. I purchased this beverage at the family dollar store for a $1.08. I got the entire thirty-two ounce ounce size chilled. The liquid itself is a neon green, not glow in the dark but a bit …
Magie Healthy soups
Magie is a very big and a very famous company, which produces many kind of noodles and even the easy to make soup packets. I have tasted the magie noodles and they are the best quality products. My husband and my children love the soups of any …
Betty Crocker - Teriyaki Rice
Betty Crocker - Teriyaki Rice is a very potent side dish that will really strike at your taste buds hard! At least, that is what happened when I tasted it for the first time and every other time as well! The combination of soy sauce, sugar, sake, ginger and …
Satay Kajang Hj Samuri - The most popular satay in Malaysia
In Malaysia, Kajang is only a small town which located in Selangor. Ordinarily, nothing was special in Kajang. But, when we said Satay Kajang, definitely they will remember and highlighted the Medan Satay in Kajang ! It is all because of their popular Satay. Satay is a small grilled …
Fit & Active Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwiches
The Fit & Active Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwiches come six to a pack for two dollars and ninety-nine cents each at ALDI Food Market stores. They are a low calorie and low fat alternative to another ice cream sandwich product also carried at ALDI Food Market stores, namely the …
Cowgirl Chocolates
I first heard of Cowgirl Chocolates on someone’s blog. I wasn’t very enthusiastic because I’m not really the cowgirl type. But upon further investigation, I realized that Cowgirl Chocolates are far from the usualy chocolates with a cowgirl logo. These are very unique chocolates– delicious chocolates …
Options Belgian Choc Instant Hot Chocolate Drink
I used to like these instant Options drinks but I went mad buying sachets of this the last time I went to the supermarket and I am not so enamoured by them. They are only 37 calories per drink so maybe for a very low calorie hot chocolate …
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Chocolate
Jell-o Instant Pudding - Chocolate is a delicious variety that I feel will appeal to chocolate lovers and even those that only have a lukewarm taste for chocolate, like myself. This chocolate pudding is so very rich and real in flavor that it is very easy to just keeping …
Tai Pei Crispy Orange Chicken
I was looking forward to trying the Tai Pei meals, they certainly looked great in the supermarket! I’d hoped to have a nice tasty entree stashed away in the fridge for those nights you don’t want to cook, but want something with a little …
Marie Callender’s Country Fried Pork Chop
Like I mentioned before, my wife and I ended up picking up some frozen TV dinners at Walmart this past weekend. She chose the Marie Callender’s Country Fried Pork Chop.
It turned out to be an OK dinner for her but wasn’t overly impressive either.
Considering the money, there was plenty …
Don Simon orange juice
When you buy orange juice, it’s difficult to choose, as even if they’re all supposed to be the same product, they all end up tasting different in the end.
One of the brands that I have tried is Don Simon. The first good thing that I noticed about this orange …
Sam’s Choice Cranberry & Black Cherry Juice Cocktail
I was amazed at the variety of flavors of drinks Sam’s Choice offers on the base of cranberry. The first one I had tried was plain cranberry juice cocktail; it was good and refreshing, but it had quickly gotten old, with us drinking it almost every day. So I …
Baby Ruth Candy Bar
One chocolate brand which I think is older than I am is Baby Ruth. I grew up seeing my Mom biting this candy bar oftentimes and from her did I learn to like Baby Ruth too. When I see my mother unwrapping a bar, I’d run to her …
ChocoLava Chocolate Drink
This product really gets a chuckle out of me. Why? It is because this is being endorsed by our local artist named John Lloyd Cruz with a tag line: “No more kid stuff for me.” That is really funny because this ChocoLava instant 3-in-1 chocolate drink is nothing but …
Hormel Compleats - Meatloaf
Previously, I’ve had the spaghetti version of this product, but this week is the first time I’ve had Hormel Compleats - Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy. A friend of mine actually surprised me with a box full of the product, which I dearly appreciated.
Hormel Compleats is a …
Tostino’s Party Pizzas
When I was in college, I practically lived on Tostino’s frozen party pizzas. They were just the right size for my microwave (yes, I ate them soggy) and were very affordable.
I still purchase this particular brand today; mostly because they do still provide a filling lunch or dinner (and …
Red Baron By the Slice 4-Cheese Pizza
I’m a huge fan of Red Baron By the Slice Pepperoni Pizza, which I am buying with regularity so last week I decided to try a different variety of this easy to prepare meal and purchased Red Baron By the Slice 4-Cheese Pizza.
I was as impressed with this 4-Cheese …
LA COOL Chocolate
It was around 9 o’clock in evening yesterday when I felt a sort of craving for some sweets after my hearty meal at a japanese restaurant with some friends. We dropped by at a “MINI STOP” convenience store and saw this LA COOL Chocolate. Since I cannot stand my …
Green Giant Valley Fresh Steamers
These things are so good my family really likes the broccoli and cheese sauce. It couldn’t be any easier to fix these, they just go straight from the freezer to the microwave, you don’t have to even open the package, just stand it up right in the microwave. They …
Cousin’s Meatball Subs
A couple days ago, I was in the mood for a meatball sub. Normally, I get these at Subway but Cousin’s was on the way home so I stopped their instead.
It was OK, but I think I still prefer Subway’s version.
I’m a huge Cousin’s fan, mostly because they do …
Silk All Natural Soymilk Mint Chocolate
Silk All Natural Soymilk Mint Chocolate comes in a one quart container and retails for around three dollars and forty-nine cents. I wanted to give this variety of soymilk a try because I think the Silk All Natural Soymilk Chocolate variety has a pretty rich chocolate flavor and so, …
Sweet N low Sugar
I wanted to try something new when it came to the sugars that I consumed. I was trying to become a bit more healthy in my own right. The thing that actually made it difficult was trying new stuff like sweet n low. Since I was cutting out the …
Maya Whole Wheat Pancake Mix
One late afternoon right after coming out of the office, I dropped by a nearby supermarket and scouted for food that my kids could bring to school. This task is one that I like doing because I get to choose good food for my little ones. It is also …
Mee Rebus
There is really something so delicious about Mee Rebus that I self declare that it is much more tastier than Mee Siam. What is Mee Rebus, you might ask.
Well, this is actually a very popular Malay dish and could be gotten mostly in Singapore and Malaysia. The method …
Werther’s Original Caramel Chocolate Milk
I was a bit surprised by Werther’s Original Caramel Chocolate Milk, but I think that was probably my own fault. I was in a hurry when I saw a package of these on sale at the grocery store and just gave it a cursory look before tossing it …
Knorr Chicken Broth Cubes
Ingredients: iodized salt, MSG, palm fat, chicken (nature identical flavors, meat and fat), sugar, yeast extract, natural colors, onion powder, citric acid.
Contains egg, milk, celery, chicken, wheat.
I often buy this Knorr Chicken Broth Cubes to add taste and flavor to our dishes. It costs only 5 …
Hershey’s Milk Shake: Creamy Chocolate
For me, nothing beats a real milk shake that you get at a restaurant. Next to that is a refreshing glass of Crystal chocolate milk. Some companies now also make these single serve chocolate drinks, which they call milk shakes, and sell them at the stores. For …
Bumble Bee Tuna Salad Kit
I’ve been aware of the Bumble Bee tuna line for quite some time: My first stab at the Bumble Bee tuna salad kit was when I was in elementary school. What makes the Bumble Bee tuna salad kit so good is that it has great portion control, and it …
You Tonics Collagen Renewal Protein Water: Dragon fruit Kiwi
I was browsing through my neighborhood discount grocery store, in the beverage selection. Usually they have a lot of low cost items from different brands that I have either previously used or would like to possibly try. Items that I wouldn’t normally buy at the full price in the …
Euro Shopper Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
I picked up these ‘Baked Beans in a Tomato Sauce’ from my local convenience store and it was their usual ‘Euro Shopper Brand’. This is an economical brand of basic grocers that I often find in that shop. I know everyone says that Heinz is best but …
Lipton Instant Tea
My familiy has always enjoyed iced tea. when I was younger during the summer time we would make sun tea, you would put around ten tea bags into a jug and set it outside and let the sun warm the water and brew the tea. My mom …
