Combos Snacks - Nacho Cheese Pretzel

Whereas cheddar cheese is used in the cheddar variety, with this variety, nacho cheese fills in the interior of the mini-pretzel. What …
McCormick Garlic Powder
I really enjoy eating garlic toast, which is what first drew me to McCormick garlic powder. The garlic powder is already made into, well, a powder, which is easy to put on toast. In order to make garlic toast all I have to do is spread some butter on …

Jimmy Dean Frozen Omelets
Recently I decided to return to my low- carb diet. As I looked through the frozen food aisle, I noticed something new. They were new to me anyway. If I had known about them before, my egg stress would have disappeared. I paid $2.99 for the package of two. …
Tesco Meat Free Bacon Style Rashers
Tesco’s own brand of meat free, bacon-style rashers are a bit cheaper than the Quorn brand of meat free rashers I have previously reviewed and they may even be a bit tastier. You get about 12 rashers in a 150g box and they cost about £1.79. These …
Judge Chewing Gum
Judge chewing gum is one of the most favorite chewing gums of the kids here in the Philippines. My son loves it. I too have come to like it. Well, it’s in small square size. But what I like about it is it’s minty flavor. It’s not too strong …

BSN Syntha-6 protein powder
BSN Syntha-6 protein powder is one thing that I have included in my diet for at least six months now. This protein powder is amazing. It comes in a variety of different flavors and sizes. It is not like every protein powder. It is different because it is more …

Ice cream, one of those treats you can’t do without in the summer time and when at parties we all love ice cream cones! A popular brand of ice cream cone in my country is called Happy Time! and surprisingly, it isn’t a waffle one but rather one of …
Chick-fil-A Lemon Pie
Although Chick-fil-A’s Lemon Pie is not quite as delicious and memorable as the fast food restaurant’s cheesecake, I still found the lemon pie to be a tasty treat that did not fall short of my expectations. The lemon filling used for this pie has a rich and authentic lemon …
Clorets Chewing Gum
There are many different “fresh breath” gums out there but by far I think the most effective bad breath fighter is the little green chicklet sized gum squares made by the Cadbury-Adams company called “Clorets”. This gum has an ingredient called Actizol that is supposed to be very …
Nestle Honey Cheerios
Nestle Honey Cheerios are one of my favorite breakfast cereals because not only do they have many health benefits but they are really tasty as well. Made with whole grain cereal, it consists of little —˜o’ shaped puffed corn, oats, wheat and rice which are coated with honey. …

Organic Soy Dream Lil’ Dreamers
Organic Soy Dream Lil’ Dreamers turned out to be positively terrible! These were just about the worst ice cream sandwiches that I have ever tried. What made them so bad, exactly? Quite simply, the flavor was horrid! Whether it was the vanilla ice cream or the chocolate cookies that …
Tesco Mineral Water 1.5L Bottle
So far, this is the cheapest 1.5L mineral water that I found in the market that tastes quite as good as Spritzer. I usually bring my own water bottle but somehow I left it in the house the day we went shopping with the kids. I know that bottle …

If you have ever been to Zaxbys then you already really know all of the …
Pepsi Throwback
Although I’m a classic Coca-Cola drinker at heart, I don’t mind drinking Pepsi now and then. I don’t think Pepsi tastes as good as Coke, but it’s an alright soft drink. What attracted me to Pepsi Throwback is the real sugar ingredient in place of the potentially dangerous high …
Entenmann’s Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Buns
I find Entenmann’s Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Buns to be a fairly delightful treat to have, especially when the buns have been warmed up in the microwave and are nice and warm. Yum! That is the way to maximize flavor, in my opinion. The raisin flavor is quite prominent and …
Splendid Self Rising Flour

Well I actually got around to using Splendid’s …

Nestle Ideal Evaporated Milk
Nestle Ideal Milk is more or less a milk from my mother’s breast. I think almost all Ghanaians are bread to like Idea milk, and now it comes in many different varieties. My favorite is the oldest one I know, the Ideal Milk Evaporated milk original. Package in tin …

Enjoy Life Boom Choco Boom Chocolate Bar

Enjoy Life (http://www.enjoylifefoods.com) is a …
Chobani Greek Yogurt
I have intended to try some of the “Greek” style yogurts I’ve seen in grocery stores the last year, but was afraid I might not like them as well as the tradional brands I am used to. I was afraid they might be sour or “too natural” tasting.
When I …

Dr. Pepper made with cane sugar is an extremely unique taste. This taste is nothing new to those of you who live around Dublin, Texas. Dr. Pepper’s made at this small town bottling company, known as ‘Dublin Dr. Pepper’s’, are made with pure cane sugar. In …
Jennie-O Boneless Turkey Breast Tenderloins
One of my very favorite foods is turkey. Growing up and into adulthood, the best I ever had was Butterball, and nothing, but nothing beats a Butterball. However, when you don’t have time to fix a big turkey, I’ve found a really good substitute — Jennie-O’s Boneless …
Self Sanctuary Grapefruit Ginger Body Butter
Mrks self sanctuary body butter in grapefruit ginger has its pros and cons. Pros first, the scent is incredible, very strong floral citrus scent that lingers for a long time. Second, it leaves the skin feeling incredibly soft afterwards. The very thick cream smooths on well …
Country Crock Margarine

T.G.I. Friday’s Potato Skins Cheddar and Bacon Snack Chips
Loaded baked potatoes are a pretty common menu item in restaurants with a variety of topping combinations. One of the most common topping combinations includes bacon bits and cheddar cheese, and depending on the quality of the potato and the toppings, that’s usually a pretty good one! While T.G.I. …
Mrs. Butterworth’s: Original Syrup
Mrs. Butterworth’s: Original Syrup is just about the most flavorful and rich syrup that I have ever tried, although I think Log Cabin, at times, alternates with this brand for my most favorite syrup. Both have a deep, rich flavor to them and both are a fairly thick syrup. …

Stouffer’s Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta

Girl Scouts’ Lemonades

Red Bull
I love Red Bull! I always drink them when I need extra energy to finish something or when I need to be awake until early in the morning to do some works. I also drink red bull at times when I go out clubbing.
They give me enough …
Breville JE24
To me buying the fruit juice at the market is fast, easy and convenient. Until, I got this juicer from my husband, I had to think of using it instead of wasting it and besides that this was a gift from my husband. I can not give it away. …
Maruchan Instant Shrimp Lunch
Anyone who has attended college know the golden rules of survival: Know someone who crouch you may need to crash on; know someone with a washer and dryer; and purchase the thirty-five cent noodles to feast on.
I had been aware of the shrimp noodles in the pack, but I …
Oscar Mayer Bun-length Premium Beef Franks
When the grocery store was out of my usual Ball Park beef franks this week, I decided to purchase Oscar Mayer Bun-length Premium Beef Franks. I didn’t even know that Oscar Mayer made a bun-length hot dog, so that was a pleasant surprise. Of course, I was …
Conching: Rosquillos

Brach’s Butterscotch Hard Candy
Having grown up as a life saver junkie, I tended to stay away from most other similar products and hard candies. Recently, though, I was given Brach’s Butterscotch Hard Candy and I sure did enjoy it.
Butterscotch, cinnamon, and peppermint are probably my two favorite flavors for life savers …
Smarties candies
I can actually remember a time when Smarties candies did not come in the color blue. I know that is probably saying a lot about how old I am but in the 1980’s and being a child who was a chocolate lover, I was well acquainted with Smarties. It …
