Aia Wudy Hot dog
I don’t like hot dogs usually because I know they are always made from the worst part of the leftovers of the meat. My Dad was working in the place where they used to produce hot dog so after some stories I’ve heard I didn’t wanna eat hot dogs …
Snickers (Chocolate Bars)
I would admit, I am a chocolate monster. I do love chocolates and one of them is this very irresistible Snickers bars. Even if my husband would joke it is not good for my figures, I would just laugh it off and would not mind. After all he himself …
Great Value Chicken Breast, Salad Dressings and Hotdogs

Lean Cuisine Deluxe Frozen Pizza
I like a lot of toppings on my pizza, so I was drawn to this pizza, which is labeled “Deluxe”, and contains lots of flavorful ingredients. These include meats like sausage and pepperoni, and vegetables like peppers, mushrooms, and onions. I think the sausage and pepperoni are delicious, the …
Jacquot Truffles
I bought a small box of Jacquot Truffles yesterday. Imported from France, these were supposed to be good! I couldn’t wait to get home and try them. Unfortunately, I was in for a disappointment: when I opened the nice golden box and the protective pouch inside, instead of truffles …
Food Club Sliced Bacon
My wife made pancakes the other day and, to go with it, cooked up some Food Club sliced bacon.
I love bacon and really appreciated the gesture. But, compared to other brands of bacon, I have to say the Food Club brand was a major disappointment. And, it’s really hard …
Season’s Choice Vegetable Blends
Synopsis: Bagged frozen vegetables available at Aldi in a variety of different blends that include everything from carrots to broccoli and califlower. My wife found a bunch of these the other day for around $1 each.

Julio’s Corn Tortilla Chips
Tired of the “traditional” tortilla chip brands and looking for something different?
I was. I mean, don’t get me wrong, Tostitios and Dorritos are fine, but everybody’s had those (in the US anyway.) I was looking to try someone more “craft” and local/regional to Texas and I found them—¦Julio’s family …

Tysons Anytizers Honey BBQ Chicken Wings
Up until a few months ago I had never thought of buying any of Tyson’s line of appetizer foods they call “anytizers”. However, back in January I got a buy one get one free coupon in my local newspaper so my hubby and I decided to have a …

It’s holiday magazine issue time, and every cookie issue by leading women’s magazines, I purchase.

Kraft Mac N Cheese
My family loves original Kraft Mac N Cheese. I have attempted to bring home the store brands in the past but my family nor I feel they have the same taste. I believe the secret is in the cheese sauce, I think that is where the store brands dont …

I like my coffee all year round. In the winter time I like it hot and in the summer I like it on ice. Nescafe Taster’s choice coffee comes in a 7 ounce canister, and it is easy to make. I make my instant coffee sort of like I …
White King Pancake and Waffle Mix
Pancakes and waffles really do have good and similar tastes. They’re best eaten while still hot. Here in our country, pancakes are more popular as “hotcakes”. They’re good for breakfast and snacks. In my case, I don’t know how to make home-made pancakes so I usually …
Nesquick Chocolate Milk
I really do love chocolate milk and I miss having it, but the only really good chocolate milk I’ve had is produced by Crystal and to get that, I have to make a special trip to a convenience store. I try, but I just can’t get there like …
Kellogg’s Limited Edition Frosted Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts
There is a lot of reasons to look forward to autumn, at least, in my eyes. Cooler temperatures that are refreshing and pleasant, Halloween fun and Thanksgiving gatherings and, of course, the plentiful pumpkin-flavored foods and treats that begin to surface seemingly everywhere once the Labor Day cook-outs and …
Lia Panettone
I stumbled across a couple of cases of this at the local Grocery Outlet for $1.99, and thought “Well, it’s a risk, but I miss the panettone I could get in Italy when we were there.” I’ve been back for three of them since. Panettone is an …
Kellogg’s Rice Krispies breakfast cereal
One of the great classics of the breakfast cereal world, if I can use that perhaps slightly overblown expression, is Kellogg’s Rice Krispies. This has been a favourite all over the world for very many years now, and there is no real mystery as to why - it is …
Kraft Macaroni and Cheese
One of my absolute favorite foods is macaroni and cheese. This is one food that I could never get sick of. Possibly the most well-known boxed macaroni and cheese is made by Kraft. Probably more people by this type than any of the generic types of …

Blue Bunny BIG Mississippi Mud Ice Cream Sandwich
Blue Bunny BIG Mississippi Mud Ice Cream Sandwich is not something that I enjoyed quite as much as I thought I would. I expected this sandwich to offer up more almonds than it actually did. Rather than find an explosion of crunchy and flavorful almonds, I found myself on …
Mrs. Fields Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies
As do many people, I find a lot of comfort and pleasure in having a sweet snack after dinner. Although I enjoy many different sweets, I have to admit, a good soft chocolate chip cookie warmed up in the microwave is the most decedent of all. Nothing …
Ferrato’s Meatballs
I recently purchased a bag of Ferrato’s Meatballs the last time I was at our local Save-a-Lot store so I could use them in my spaghetti later in the week.
I used them last night and was pretty impressed with the overall quality.
The meatballs lacked a bit in terms of …
Jelly Belly Lollibeans
I fully admit to having a love of Jelly Belly jellybeans. They were the first (and maybe only) company to make Dr. Pepper flavored jellybeans and they have a lot of flavors that you just can’t find anywhere else. They are now making suckers, which they call Lollibeans. I …
Oishi Sponge
Another super junkfood made by Oishi is the choco soaked snack Sponge. The “ring like ” choco crunch that every junkfood lover

Pillsbury Creamy Supreme Milk Chocolate Frosting

Bell’s Whisky
I am a keen quaffer of Scotch whisky and I can claim a degree of discrimination when I drink it. Like all unique drinks of any kind, there are certain brands of Scotch which may lay claim to excellence in their own, if no one else’s eyes. Amongst those …

Cream cheese is one of those things that can be used in a variety of different pastry recipes as well as serve as a simple topping spread. It’s very popular around the holidays because of how common an ingredient it is in recipes. I know that my family stocks …

Iceland Coleslaw and Potato Salad
This coleslaw and potato salad from Iceland’s own brand is very good quality and very economical too, at only £1 for the double tray, each tray containing 250g. I have been impressed with Iceland’s own brand products lately as they do always seem to be fresh and good …

Pumpkin Pie Pop Tarts

Like other pop tarts, it could be found …

I ended up buying some La Choy Chow Mein the other night because I was in the mood for Chinese food but didn’t want to spend a fortune and didn’t want to go through a big deal making it.
Well, this product did meet those two criteria, it was cheap …
Kraft Finely Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
My family has long used Kraft cheese products, but recently, we tried some other brands. They were cheaper and made a lot of the same claims as this item. Having used these alternatives, though, leads me to the conclusion that this specific product, Kraft Finely Shredded Mozzarella …
Aunt Jemima French Toast and Sausage
Aunt Jemima French Toast and Sausage is a relatively decent breakfast that most certainly could have been tastier, but as it is, I did not feel as if my money had gone to waste. This breakfast consists of French Toast and sausage, nothing more. When I prepared it, I …
