Applebee’s Southern Chicken Sliders
It may be the cheapest entrée on their menu but it’s better to spend your money on something else. What you get is a deep-fried morsel of chicken on a dinner roll and a pickle that spans 1/3 of the bun. This is not the dish to …
Home Style Select Sour Cream & Onion Potato Chips
Sour cream and onion are my favorite flavors to have on potato chips. The combination of sour cream and onion flavors makes for not so pleasant breath, but boy do the two flavors taste good together! These chips from the Dollar Tree have a strong sour cream and onion …
Bare Fruit 100% Organic Bake-Dried Cinnamon Apple Chips
I enjoy eating snacks and treats that have an apple-cinnamon flavor to them, like cinnamon apple sauce and cinnamon apple pie with a crumb topping, that sort of stuff. These apple chips are included in the things that I enjoy snacking on that have an apple-cinnamon flavor because they …

I purchased the Bake N’ Shake as another seasoning to use on my wings and pork chops. I wanted to cut off some time with choosing various seasonings to blend together to add to my meats, so I wanted to get seasoning in a box that was already prepared …
Farmer Dave’s CSA - Lawrence Pick up
My boyfriend and I got the regular family share as our first CSA experience from Farmer Dave’s in Dracut MA with our pick up location at Groundwork Lawrence. We absolutley loved the CSA! We got more than enough vegetables every week to feed 2 adults dinner and lunch all …
Ghirardelli Luxe Milk chocolate bar with hazelnut
Ghirardelli is well known for their chocolates. They’re a step above Heresy’s chocolates but not quite at the level of Godiva’s chocolates, which I honestly think is extremely over priced after trying it. Ghirardelli makes some fine chocolate bars and brownie mixes. Recently they’ve come out with a new …
Koop’s Mustard
I’m the kind of person who likes her hot dogs pure: hot dog, bun, and just a dash of traditional mustard. No fancy mustards, no dijons, and definitely nothing with honey. For years French’s mustard suited me just fine.
But I’m also a person who likes a bargain, so when …
Adagio Teas adagio.com
When I started to read about the benefits of tea, I wanted to find someplace to buy good quality tea. I came across the website for Adagio Teas, adagio.com, and saw that they sold a variety of loose tea leaves and accessories. I liked that they had …
Irish Cheese Assortment by igourmet.com
As in life in general, in cheese you absolutely get what you pay. In our family, fridge without at least five assorted brands of cheese is an empty fridge. It looks like our mission is to try every cheese available in the globe. As much as I know, there are …
White Fudge Covered Oreos
I love oreos and I have always seen white fudge covered oreos being sold. I love white chocolate personally but is is obviously the sweetest “chocolate” you can get out there and I actually wondered if white fudge would be just a bit too sweet (compared to chocolate) to …
David’s Deli - Plain Bagels
I only purchased David’s Deli - Plain Bagels once and the reason for that is the bagels seemed to be on the stale side even though I had my first one the very next morning and the “best used by date” was far off. I always check the dates …
Eight O’Clock Ponkana Powdered Juice Drink
Drinking daily juice is one of my habits because it is a good source of vitamin C. Orange juice is the most common orange juice flavor and it has variations as well. Some are sourced from western oranges and some are from mandarin orange. Ponkana is from mandarin orange. It …
Hershey’s - Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels
Hershey’s - Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels are mildly tasty, although really, they are no better than the Flipz Milk Chocolated Covered Pretzels or the Nabisco brand, but they also are no worse. Just like the other brands, these pretzels are covered in a mildly present milk chocolate layer that …
Tesco Crusty White Sliced Split Tin Bread Loaf
I buy this bread especially for my morning toast as I have found it makes perfect toast. For 90 pence, you get a large sliced loaf with each slice being quite thick and sometimes I even pick this up from the ‘reduced price’ section in Tesco because even …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Juice Drink
Gone are the days that you still need to squeeze the orange to make it a yummy fruit juice. Because today, the market now offers the real pulp of an orange juice drink, it’s Minute Maid Pulpy Orange Drink. I was able to try this drink when I …

Albertsons extra crunchy peanut butter

McCormick California Style Garlic Powder
Anything garlic is normally a winner with me, but I’m not a big fan of McCormick California Style Garlic Powder. This garlic powder comes with parsley and contains no MSG.
Packaging-wise, the plastic container is adequate with a colorful wrapper that drew my attention. It has a big …
Sunnyside Farms Vanilla Sandwiches
You know, back in the day, I really loved a good ice cream sandwich. That’s because they really were wonderful. I’m not sure what brand they were back then. Maybe Crystal made them, or perhaps some other company, but somewhere in the last 25 years, sandwiches …
Spaghetti Alfredo Recipe
I’m not much of a cook. As a matter of fact I don’t even know how to cook rice or how to fry. I often stay away from the kitchen. It’s quite ironic because I love watching cooking shows especially those in Discovery Travel and Living. But there are …
Knorr instant soups
Have u ever tried the instant soups from Knor, they are very good in taste and very easy to make and it hardly takes some 10 minutes to get ready. The knor soup comes in many flavours and many varieties and the prices are slightly high but worthy. …

Knorr Pasta Sides Chicken
The name of this Pasta Side might be a little misleading because there actually isn’t any bits or pieces of chicken in this Pasta Side. What is in this Pasta Side is a sauce that has the flavor of chicken. The sauce, although thicker than the broth in a …
Choco Mucho

Out working all day I was suddenly overcome with thirst. I wanted a long, low calorie, tasty, refreshing, no gas, unexpensive drink. I popped into a nearby supermarket and found it: Simon fresh light pineapple flavour. Real fruit juice and water, no preservatives, 1.5L and under 2 euros. Delicious. …
Sam’s Choice Cheese Sticks Mozzarella and Asiago
Without a doubt, I enjoy cheese. I probably derive a bit too much satisfaction from eating cheese and could likely stand to cut back some on it, but when products like Sam’s Choice Cheese Sticks Mozzarella and Asiago exist on store shelves, my goodness is it ever difficult! I …
Excelsior Premium Bran and Oats Cream Crackers
Normally I am used to the Excelsior Cream Crackers made of flour, but recently my grandmother introduced me to the Excelsior Premium Bran and Oats Cream Crackers which she said was not only healthy, but didn’t cost much. Since I usually prefer foods made of bran to flour, I …

Another flavor for the healthy drink for pregnant women or expectant mothers which is great because it offers a different but yummy chocolate taste. It has the same ingredients as the Original Milk flavor of Anmum Materna and the same benefits for pregnant women. But it’s a …

In this economy, one of the ways our family has tried to save money is by purchasing generic items instead of name brand products. The last time I was at the grocery store, I decided to try Best Choice Frozen Breaded Zucchini, a generic product that our store …
Mapro Pineapple Syrup
My husband bought pineapple syrup to add on his cocktail drink. I was curious to taste it since it says on the ingredient that it has sugar, pineapple juice and water. So when you make a drink, you don’t need a sugar anymore because it is so sweet.
Mapro Pineapple …
Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Dinner
Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Dinner is one of our family’s favorite quick and yummy meals. Usually, I don’t care for “brand names” very much, and if I can find a cheaper alternative to a product I like I will use it; however, with this particular product imitations have proved …
Rasna Soft Drink
I am not sure if it is right to say Rasna as a soft drink, cause unlike others, it is not carbonated. Anyways, we can call it a beverage. And this beverage is quite popular in India.
This is probably the cheapest beverage you can every get, and its yummy tasty …
Energy Sumseeds: Energized Sunflower Seeds
I first came accross these seeds at a local Valero Gas station in Porter, Tx and decided to give them a try seeing how the label boasted its jumbo sized sunflower seeds that had caffeine, ginseng, taurine and lysine. I first tried the Original flavor and made my way …
Great Value Tomato Condensed Soup
I have been using Great Value Tomato Condensed Soup for quite a while. Usually, we don’t eat it as soup, I use it for cooking other dishes, like hamburger pie, or as meatball sauce. The soup comes in a 10.75 oz metal can. Cooking directions are provided on the …
Country Time Canned Lemonade
This is one my favorite drinks in the world. Country Time Lemonade has just the right balance of water and sugar so that it’s not too sweet or too bland. I particularly like the canned stuff over the large 2 liter bottles because you can just put it in …

Winn Dixie Brand Glazed Donuts
The glazed donuts from Winn Dixie are affordable and taste just as good if not better than donuts would taste if they were purchased at a shop like Dunkin Donuts. They come in a pack of eight for 2.99. People pay more than that for a dozen donuts at …

Route 1 Candy Peanut Choklets
Route 1 Candy Peanut Choklets come in a twelve point six ounce bag for one dollar and ninety-nine cent at ALDI Food Market stores. This is a candy that combines chocolate and peanuts, a combination that isn’t exactly new, but it doesn’t do it at all remarkably. While the …
Herr’s Potato Chips
The most avid of junk food junkies, I find it difficult to find a chip that is both strong in its texture and satisfying in its flavor. The leading brands don’t seem to do it justice on those days when you are craving something just a little more special.
I …
Red Baron’s Singles Deep Dish Pizza
Red Baron’s Singles Deep Dish Pizza is what I crave on almost a daily basis. I first tried it a couple of months ago and has been hook on it every since. It has a different taste than other pizzas and it doesn’t take long at all to cook …
