The Snack Factory - Chipotle Cheddar Pretzel Crisps are alright, although I do not think that I will purchase them a second time. While I do like cheddar cheese, cheddar is not in my top five favorite cheeses. With all the other great flavors available for these pretzel chips, …

I had never really liked wheat breads before, then one day my mother got me to try this nature’s own brand bread. Wow, I have got to tell you I loved it right away.
Everything I put on it was so easily spreadable including butter and even peanut butter. …

Jell-o Gelatin - Strawberry/Banana is a simply scrumptious variety that could be even better if one thing was done: the banana flavor needs to be intensified a little bit and the strawberry flavor needs to be reduced a little somewhat. As it stands now, the flavor combination is a …

Sometimes generic or store-brand products are just as good, if not better, than the big name brands. This is the case with Jewel brand Ginger Ale, which is sold at all Jewel-Osco grocery stores in both two-liter bottles and 12-packs. Just yesterday, I compared the price os …

I tried the ‘Low Fat Strawberry Yoghurt’ from Tesco’s Value range for the first time. I am open-minded about their ‘Value’ range as some products are not so bad. I would not expect this to be on a par to more expensive yoghurts as it is a …

The Asian Noodle Stir Fry is not one of my favorite dishes by Amy’s Meals. The portion is to small and it does not fill me up. To me this makes it a bad meal because it is 300 calories. I do not like that because I would …

I am no stranger to the brand Izze. As a person who is trying to set aside soda, Izze sparkling beverages are life savers. Which is how I came to try Izze Sparkling Clementine. As you can imagine, I was not hesitant in grabbing a few of bottles.
What I …

It says on the package: “Delicious bread crisps seasoned with onion”. And I have to agree with that statement. “Bake Rolls” is indeed delicious.
In my quest to limit my intake of chips, I switched to “Bake Rolls”. One package has approximately 90 grams of baked bread crisps. The onion …

I bought two boxes of this mix recently as I thought they were a great deal price wise, each costing around a dollar. Now, however, I’m not too sure. Generally I like cake mixes for the ease and because they are much cheaper than buying already baked cakes. I …

I know that Pizza Pops are horrible for me. But, they’re also delicious. Delicious and expensive. I usually buy them once every few months because I’m craving the pizza-y goodness that only they can deliver. This month, however, I was on a budget and I happened to be visiting …

I’m not sure how new McDonalds’ Southern Style chicken is but I tried it for the first time a week ago and was very disappointed. It’s a breakfast sandwich that has a piece of chicken strip in between a flaky biscuit. For something that’s suppose to be southern, where’s …

Creamy mint in pure chocolate is how Junior Mints are described. These small candy treats are one of two boxed items that I’ve purchased consistently since childhood. As I’ve said before, I love a good mint. It’s just a taste that I’ve always enjoyed.
Back when I …

I am a college student. One of the first words people seem to associate with college students is ramen. However, if happen to be, like me, a vegetarian college student, then you find others have a major advantage on you with their instant noodles. After all, …

I really have no idea about where different wines come from. For years I would order Chardonnay, simply because I liked the light refreshing taste. Then I ventured out to explore red wines, like Chianti and merlot. But when I ran across the Shiraz wine …

Rich’s Ice Cream Vanilla Sandwich Low Fat is not that bad really. For a low fat product, this ice cream sandwich really retains a whole lot of flavor, quite surprisingly. The vanilla is fairly rich and creamy and even though the vanilla flavor is slightly subdued due to the …

One of my favorite local chocolates is Cloud 9 Classic. I recently rediscovered it when I was shopping for snacks and candies for my son. I remembered how I used to beg my mom to buy me, not just a single Cloud 9, but a whole box of …

Great Value Mandarin Oranges are sold in a 15 oz metal can that needs to be open with a can-opener (no convenient ring-opener attached to the lid). Segments of mandarin oranges come in light syrup; they are medium sweet, not very different from the taste of a fresh, ripe …

Stouffer’s Grilled Chicken Italian Panini is something that is quite unique as I never do see anything real similar to it in the frozen food sections of the grocery stores that I frequent. It is actually quite a delicious sandwich too, and I hope that Stouffer’s does not discontinue …

Product Description: Can of baked beans from the brand B & M, which I believe is a product from B&G Foods. I found it this morning while shopping at our local Piggly Wiggly and bought it for $1.79.
What I liked about this product: I normally buy Bush’s Baked Beans …

Nature’s Path: Crunchy Vanilla Sunrise is not quite as good as the maple version of this cereal. I like vanilla as much as I like maple, but maple is undeniably a richer and stronger flavor. Nonetheless, I think this cereal has a tasty flavor to it that does indeed …

The good day biscuits are my weakness. These biscuits are very very tasty and yummy. These biscuits are full of cashew nuts and are very crispy and lite to eat. I love travelling and while travelling I always carry the good day biscuits with me whenever …

I can’t honestly say that I’m a fan of most of the pastries that come from the different branches of Captain’s Bakery, but for some reason when my mother bought a twist donut from the bakery for me to eat for lunch, I expected more. It wasn’t that the …

The other day I tried baking two loafs of these for the very first time and I am very happy with the results. This pumpkin bread is truly delicious! Even more amazing is the fact that it tastes just like my grandmother’s zucchini bread that I remember from my …

Stouffer’s Green Pepper Steak is a meal that I have had just one time and I am unsure if I want to purchase a second time. The reason I am unsure is because I liked certain aspects of this meal while other parts disappointed me. The red and green …

When it comes to the original Philadelphia cream cheese, I always purchased the block cream cheese for both my cheesecakes and bagels. When I found out they had a new version of the original cream cheese in a round container, I had to get it solely on the basis …

Red Bull gives you wings, um not! I have to stay up late three out of five days and this drink does absolutely nothing to help. The taste isn’t bad, but why would I spend three dollars on a drink for its taste if that isn’t its selling point. …

Jollibee chicken joy is really one of the best fried chicken among all fast food chains in the country. Of course children love fried chicken and Jollibee is famous for their products that children love. I personally enjoy eating fried chicken and I have to admit that what they …

The syrup has a really good, strong cherry flavor to it without being …

I always love fizzy drinks but my ultimate favorite is this Scholer sparkling grape juice because it really tastes so nice plus the fact that it is healthy. Just that I seldom buy this one unless it is sold for a discount in the supermarket like for instance …

In these cold days I like to take nice hot cup of tea. I usually didn’t buy Milford teas because they are more expensive than other ones and also I always buy the same stuff. Last evening I went to shop and I saw that with Milford tea you …

I found a small 6 pack of this beer at my grocery store, and since I like wheat beers and watermelon, I figured I would give it a shot. While this isn’t my favorite brew, it’s definitely a refreshing twist on one wheat beer.
The first thing that drew me …
