Macaroni Grill : Creamy Basil Chicken Pasta
Macaroni Grill now has a line of “Restaurant Favorites” boxed dinners. I decided to try the Creamy Basil Chicken Parmesan Pasta version. I can always find these at Walmart for $3.50, but I saw them at the local grocer’s for $7, so I’m not sure why there’s such a …

Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice Drink
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice Drink is a new product by Coca Cola. It comes in 2 sizes, 1 liter and 330ml. I usually go for Pepsi’s Tropicana juice drink before as it’s a good replacement for carbonated sodas and love the almost natural orange taste, it’s too sweet …
Millville Shredded Wheat Bite Size Whole Grain Wheat Cereal
The Millville Shredded Wheat Bite Size Whole Grain Wheat Cereal comes in a sixteen point four box for one dollar and eighty-nine cents. This is pure shredded wheat cereal as there is no frosted side. As one can imagine, the cereal doesn’t
taste like much of anything. It’s definitely not …

Nugatti Hazelnut/Cocoa Spread 200g

Roseland Center Cut Pork Chops

Blue Horizon Natural Red Pepper Pasta Twists
The Blue Horizon Natural Red Pepper Pasta Twists comes in a thirty-two ounce bag for just under four dollars. It’s a slightly expensive pasta meal that’s sold in the refrigerated case at ALDI Food Market stores. It’s slightly expensive in my opinion because I can buy almost double the …
Mrs. Freshley’s Halloween: Powdered Mini Donuts
Unlike the chocolate variety of mini-donuts, Mrs. Freshley’s Halloween: Powdered Mini Donuts actually have a pretty decent flavor to them and I will say that I enjoyed devouring the six mini-donuts. The powdered sugar provided these donuts with a satisfying flavor that left me with a smile on my …

Hoodia Water
To be honest, I’m not big on dietary supplements or anything in that vein, but I decided to try Hoodia Water. I’m not a fan of pills anyway, so this product grabbed my attention.

Mee Siam
I used not to like Mee Siam. In case you are wondering what this is, it is actually a gravy type of noodles, but the very thin strips one. Not the thick noodles like your spaghetti, though.
The gravy has to be spicy for me and in …

Reasor’s Grocery Stores
I love Reasor’s stores. The kids they hire are friendly and more outgoing than the usual places. They are all dressed in their whites and jeans. However, the prices of everything in those stores are so high. For example, Totino’s pizzas are about 50 cents more than Wal Mart. …

Aldi Food Stores in Pittsburgh, PA

Starbucks Doubleshot Energy Drinks in White Chocolate
