Log Cabin: Original Syrup
Log Cabin: Original Syrup is one of my absolute flavor syrups to use. The reason it is a real favorite of mine is because the syrup is very rich and it is one of the thicker syrups on the market. It is syrup that greatly enhances my enjoyment of …
Best Choice Black Bean, Tomato and Corn Mexican Salsa
We have seriously been trying, as a family, to save money at the grocery store. The main way we have managed to accomplish this is by buying generic products. This was a new step for us because we have always purchased name brand products in the past. However, we …
Knorr Asian Sides Teriyaki Noodles
Well, I can’t say that I didn’t know what I was getting myself into when I purchased this Asian Side. I knew it was going to be sweet, and I didn’t think a sweet side would go well with dinner, but I still wanted to give it a try, …
The Laughing Cow cheese
The Laughing Cow has a variety of cheese products from France. Do not ask me to read the French version of its brand, however, because I do not know how to pronounce it.
I discovered this brand on the imported section of our local supermarket. It costs more than the …
Joy Ice Cream Cups
Unfortunately for me, my favorite grocery store has changed brands again, something they do from time to time, only this time it’s definitely not a good thing. The product in question is a box of ice cream cones. I really liked the other brand they carried, but …
Safeway Enriched White Bread
I would not recommend trying this bread no matter how inexpensive it may be compared to some of the other brand names. I thought by the looks of it that it would be comparable to like a Weber’s enriched white bread. I was disappointed when I bought …
Deli Pride Fish & Cheese Sandwich
I went home for lunch today and decided to raid the freezer again and make a quick meal using a Deli Pride Fish & Cheese Sandwich I had purchased from Save-a-Lot a few days ago.
I wasn’t expecting too much from this 99 cent lunch. And, to be perfectly honest, …
Stouffer’s Family Sized Lasagna
I like to eat lasagna but the only problem I have is I don’t know how to cook it. I remember wanting lasagna for dinner one night, but it was too late to call my mom up for her recipe; therefore, I went out to the local market that …
Drumstick Ice Cream Treats - With Sprinkles
Drumstick cones have been around for a long time without any changes - they are a standard sugar cone filled with ice cream, except for a bit of fudge in the bottom, then dipped in chocolate and rolled in peanuts. This formula has worked well for years, but …
Trix
As a child, Trix cereal was one of my favorites. I loved it, probably as my second favorite as I think back on it now. It was a fun cereal to eat, and I loved all the flavors and colors. It was tasty and satisfying.
For several …
Great Value Scalloped Potatoes
My wife and I decided to make a box of Great Value Scalloped potatoes last night to go with the dinner we were making. I had found this at our local Super Walmart about a week ago and, since it was significantly cheaper than the other brands that were …
Lambertz Exquisit Biscuits, Wafer
I like to eat wafers very much because most of them are not too sweet. The cream is sweet but the wafer is not so the combination of these two is great. Some wafers are too sweet but just the ones that have too much cream. I don’t buy …
Junior horlicks health drink
Hi friends today I want to review a very interesting health drink for kids under 3 to 4 years.
It’s very easy to digest and very very tasty to drink and the name of that drink is Junior Horlicks.
Since 2 years I am using it for my son and now …
Splenda French Vanilla Flavor Blend for Coffee
I picked up this product at my local Walgreens on sale for $.99. It comes in a light yellow box containing 30 individual sticks. The packaging is tastefully done and features an idyllic portrait containing a french press coffee maker, a white ceramic mug brimming with fresh coffee, and …
Favorini Crispy wafer
When you like sweet stuff as much as I do people usually think that it is easy for you because you like everything that has chocolate or some kind a sweet cream in it. But it isn’t so. I like sweet but not too sweet and I like cookies …
Pringles Potato chips
Although pringles potato chips have been around for a long time. I find that they now have many different brands however they also are very salty. They do now come salt free but to me taste like one is chewing on cardboard. Even though they stay …
Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls
My wife and I had the house to ourselves Saturday night and ended up sleeping in on Sunday morning. Since it was the first time we had a quiet house in over a month, I ran to the store to get something easy yet different for breakfast.
I bought Breakfast …
Folgers Instant Coffee
Folgers Instant Coffee is very good. This is the stuff that gets me going in the morning and it’s a very good product. Another great thing about this coffee is that it’s sold at a good price. It’s not to expensive. With a coupon you can get the Folgers …
McCormick Chicken Flavored Gravy
I use McCormick Gravy at least twice a month. I prefer the chicken flavored and use it on mashed potatoes. I have tried many different brands of packaged gravy over the years and have never found anything as good as McCormick’s. It is very important when buying packaged gravy …
Udi’s Gluten Free White Bread
It is difficult to find a great tasting gluten free white bread. I was very happy to discover this one. I had been eating a different one for a long time but it was a cheese bread, not the regular white bread. I put off trying Udi’s bread because …
Gipsy Gold —“ soft aperitif
I don’t usually like bitter products but here in Italy everyone drinks soft aperitifs so I decided to try the out too, when they were on discount, of course. So I bought Gipsy Gold, 10 bottles of this soft aperitif for 1.19Euro only instead of 1,49Euro. I must say …
Cobra Energy Drink
Are you drinking this Cobra Energy Drink? For those who are planning to buy one, think twice. It’s not that effective aside from the fact that it really taste bad. For me the tv advertisement of this product is misleading. Here is my experience. I am a call center …
Tang Orange Flavour Crystals
I have been a huge fan of the orange crystal drink Tang for over 20 years. I first discovered Tang as a small child in Florida on vacation twenty years ago.
One of the unique things about Tang is the packaging. Unlike other commercial powdered drinks, Tang comes in a …
The Co-operative Chocolate Sponge Sandwich
This chocolate sponge sandwich from the Co-operative’s own brand is only 70p and, for that price, it tastes pretty good. It is obvious not a gourmet sponge cake and I find that there is not too much in it, but it was moist and tasted nice and chocolatey …
Great Value: French Fried Onions
Great Value: French Fried Onions are good to have whether I want to add them as a topping to a vegetable or as a topping to my meat. They are crispy and they are flavorful. The onion inside has a strong flavor that will not go unnoticed and the …
Publix Sweet Tea
One of the quickest ways to get a delicious glass of iced tea is to buy Publix gallon of sweet tea. Sometimes in the summer, it is just too hot to make tea. So on these scorching days, we tend to run out and buy a couple gallons of …
Hormel Premium Canadian Style Bacon
Recently, I purchased a new product. It’s a common food item, but the only time I’ve had it was on pizza. Since I’m in the mood to try out new sandwich fixings, I purchased Hormel Premium Canadian Style Bacon. As I’ve said many times before, Hormel …
Chicken Bruschetta Panini Hot Pockets
A friend gave me a couple of coupons for Hot Pockets’ newest addition to the frozen food family: Chicken Bruschetta Panini Hot Pockets. I was at first excited to try this newfound fare. But shortly after heating it in the microwaveable tray, I was …
Pepsi max
I recently found one of my favorite beverages on sale at Dollar General. The soft drink is Pepsi Max and as the name implies was made the Pepsi company. The thing about this beverage is that is low calorie and advertises on the label that it has …
Aunt Jemima Buttermilk Waffles
As I’ve often said, I like simplicity in my cooking. To be more specific, I want as little mess as possible and virtually no clean up. This comes from not having a working oven, a stovetop with just one unreliable working burner, and the lack of a …
Archer Farms low fat string cheese
Since I recently moved to a small town in Arkansas from a big city it took some getting use to. First of all it’s so small and behind the times that they only just barely opened a Target and Old Navy. This place is Wal-Mart country and I’m fine …
Meijer House Blend Instant Coffee
Many people who are serious coffee devotees shun instant coffee. And for the longest time, I understood why. However, when I purchased this store brand of instant coffee for the first time to use in a recipe, I wasn’t sure what else to do with it besides trying to …

Breyers –all natural icecream is my favorite icecream.This is available in a 1.66 litre pack.The physical shape of the pack is also appealing.Though you get different flavors but most of the icecreams will be having either choclate or vanilla.But this has combination of both of my favorite ie …
Priya pickles
The pickles give the great taste for meals. It is really very boring for the Indians particularly to have the meals without any pickle along with the meals. And when we talk about the pickles we must also talk about the priya pickles. Because the taste …
Marie Callender’s Spaghetti with Meat Sauce - New Recipe
Previously, I’ve done a review for the spaghetti and meat sauce from Marie Callender’s, and now they’ve redone the product. This is the third redo that I know of in terms of product. Originally, there was the spaghetti and meat sauce and then last year they added …
Nestle Rolo Ice-Cream
I keep finding new and wonderful flavours of ice-cream, and now that I may have found the best ever, I will likely gain much weight this summer. To make matters worse, the size of the container is about twice the size of Haagen-Dazs or Ben and Jerry’s ice-cream, for about …
How I cook pizza at home
In my opinion the dough is the most important part in any pizza. I’ve discovered the best dough recipe. You will need:
2 glasses of flour
One glass of warm water
8 gr of rapid rise yeast
1/2 tea spoon of salt
2 spoons of olive or seed oil
Put the flour into the bowl, …
Nestle Pure Life Water
I buy bottle water at about 5-6 cases at a time because the overall water quality in Albuquerque is fairly poor. Nestle Pure Life water is my preferred brand because it does not taste like it has had tons of special minerals added to it so there is …
Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper
When Dr Pepper first introduced the Cherry Vanilla variety, I bought a 20-ounce bottle without even thinking about what I was doing. There was no fear that this soft drink could taste bad or otherwise disappoint me. I grew up drinking Dr Pepper, so I’m fairly loyal to the …
Lindt Chocoletti Noix de coco summer edition
Lindt Chocoletti Noix de coco are actually small milk chocolates with coconut filling. Lindt is a Swiss chocolate producer and in my opinion, but not only mine, it is one of the best chocolate company. They make excellent chocolate which is also rather expensive, because it is of a …
Kentucky Fried Chicken Double Down Sandwich
For supper tonight I decided to try the new KFC Double Down Sandwich. It was surprisingly pretty good! I’m not a big bread eater , so I didn’t miss that part of it at all.
The double down is a very unique sandwich. It is 2 crispy boneless chicken filets …
Mountain Dew Voltage With Raspberry Citrus Flavor and Ginseng
This is one of the 3 Mountain Dews you vote on and they will keep everyone’s favorite. My husband likes this one the best but this one is probably my least favorite. I am not big in citrus tasting stuff this is probably why I do not like this …
Mama Sita’s Lumpiang Shanghai Mix
I love this pre-made mixture of spices for lumpia (Filipino spring rolls). It makes making lumpia recipe a breeze. Usually, I make lumpia from scratch and season the meat and veggies from scratch as well. But using this seasoning mix saves the time. I just get a pound of …
HP Fruity Sauce
If you’re anything like me you love a bit of sauce with your food. I suppose my favourite it tomato ketchup, but I have now found an alternative, which as well as being a sauce and be used for other things as well.

Sonny Cappuccino
I have 5 different discounts near my house and that actually means that I rarely buy stuff that isn’t on discount, that was the case with Sonny Cappuccino too. I saw that 350g of this cappuccino cost only 1,95 Euro, on discount of course, although usually I pay that …
Safeway Select Water Crackers With Cracked Black Pepper
These wafer thin crackers have become a staple in my home.For people who are used to Ritz or Triscuits these won’t won’t seem like anything to write home about. But, I have tried water crackers before and liked them so I decided I might like this brand as well.
These …
A and W Root Beer Soda
The A&W food chain has changed a lot over the years of its existence. I must admit I long for the good old days, but that’s not what this review is about. The one thing that this restaurant is primarily known for is its root beer. …
Jollibee Yumburgers
Ever wondered why Filipinos love eating fastfood and for a majority of them would probably vote Jollibee as their choice? Unlike other burgers that taste bland, although there are a few foreign brands that are great also, but being “untried” or “advertised” well enough have not gained a …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange
I have tried this Minute Maid Pulpy Orange when we went to an outing one day with the whole family. It was actually given to me by my cousin who told me to try the said drink. I tasted it once and it was good. It’s …
