Kellogg’s Special K Bars: Blueberry
Do you like blueberries? If you do, these Special K bars will be quite the treat! I will say though that they are pretty gosh darn sweet, so keep that in mind. I like both blueberries and sweet stuff, so for me, the combination of those two things in …
The Nestle Kitkat
One of my favorite chocolate is the Nestle Kitkat because it has a unique style and unique taste for me. It has a wafer and chocolate and it really taste good.

Breyers Frozen Lemonade
I was recently given a small container of Breyers Soft frozen lemonade, and must say?I?m not impressed. I was actually given a selection of ice cream to choose from and I chose the frozen lemonade thinking it would be light and tasty. Overall I think it was just way …
Reggano Brand Penne Pasta
Product Description: Box of Penne Pasta available at Aldi for around $1.
What I liked about this product: Well, obviously, if I do any shopping at Aldi, I am there because I am looking to save some money. And, this was no exception to that. The pasta was considerably cheaper …
Kellogg’s All-Bran Apple Cinnamon Streusel Fiber Bar
I purchase these fiber bars once and awhile. I would purchase them more often, but honestly, the apple and cinnamon flavor is not all that terrific or incredible. I mean, both flavors are noticeable and what flavor that is there is quite good, but there just is not enough …
Deluxe Mixed Nuts
Great Value Deluxe Mixed Nuts contains cashews, almonds, Brazil nuts, and pecans, slightly salted. A 10 oz can costs $3.96, which I think is a little too much for the Great Value brand, usually so well-priced. The mixed nuts are very good as a party snack. When we have …

Product Description: Low fat frozen meals available at most stores for around $1. The variety I ended up trying was the 5-cheese lasagna.
What I liked about this product: Even though I really should do more to watch my weight, I usually avoid low-fat frozen dinners like this. Part of …
Yuban Premium Coffee Dark Roast
I am a coffee lover, or I should say fanatic, and cannot live without the stuff. My preferred brands are Folgers and Yuban, but sometimes I will buy the bargain brand if I’m low on money. On a recent shopping trip, I thought I had found a really great …
Coke with Lime
Soft drink leaders Coca-Cola and Pepsi have tried a lot of different flavors over the years. Most of them haven’t worked. Some, however, have stuck. Cherry flavor, for example. Vanilla Coke, on the other hand, although its lasted a few years (longer than most of …
Silk (Soy Milk)
I’m not a vegan, so when I first heard about Silk Soy Milk I didn’t put too much thought into trying it. All I knew was that the commercials showing people drinking it like it was the most delicious thing in the world were pretty tempting. To be honest, …
Haribo Chamallow Mix
I like almost all Haribo products because they are all delicious and of a great quality. My sister bought Haribo Chamallow Mix today, one bag has 175g and we ate almost half of it in 5 minutes. Then I took the bag and hid it in the kitchen because …
Selecta Buco Salad Ice Cream Stick
After an afternoon lunch in a local restaurant, I found my self wanting and eager to taste Selecta Buco Salad Ice Cream on a Stick. I feel like nourishing the child within me as I feel like a kid again excited to eat ice cream or licking a lollipop.

Coleman’s Tuna Pasta Bake Mix
This packet sauce mix is a delicious and simple base for some versatile recipes.
The packet will advise you an ideal recipe, but for the most part it’s pasta, tuna, sweetcorn and the sauce mix. You can interchange the vegetables, and tuna can be substituted with chicken for particularly …
Cadburys Fruit and Nuts Chocolate
Cadburys are probably the oldest brand o here in India. I have been seeing them around since I was a lil kid. They are very delicious, and I specially like fruits and nuts. And I am not the only of their admirers. My kid, and wifey too like them very …

All Bran Yogurt Bites is a cereal put out by Kellog’s containing both flakes and clusters that are as the name suggests covered in yogurt. They looked interesting and since I enjoy yogurt I decided to give them a try. Well while those tiny white clusters tasted fine as long …
Grant’s Whisky
Every so often, you find that something comes along which is perceived as being just a standard product and no one thinks anything of it. Only when it is about to disappear do people start to realize just how lucky they were. That is the case with this whisky. …
Digiorno Supreme Pizza
Pizza is one of my all time favorite foods to eat. I don’t’ often order pizza because of the prices and quality. The pizza is usually very skimp and cost about 15 bucks. I wanted to have some real pizza at home. I remembered the commercial stating that Digiorno …
Cookout Peach Cobbler Milkshake
Cookout is a local fast food chain in the area around Charlotte, North Carolina. While on a trip there recently I kept seeing advertisements for their specialty milkshakes and the Peach Cobbler sounded too good to pass up. I ended up grabbing one, but now I wish I had …
Mint Schmint: Ice Breakers Restore
I noticed Ice Breakers is making sugar-free mints that deviate from the typical “breath-freshening” purpose. Ice Breakers Restore and Ice Breakers Energy sat in 5 neat rows beside the magazine rack, staring at me as I stood in line to buy groceries. Just the appearance of the packaging made …
Stouffer’s Swedish Meatballs w/ Egg Noodles (frozen dinner)
Swedish meatballs are wonderful. I’ve made them several times and have really fallen in love with the recipe. I decided to try Stouffer’s version of the meal and see what it’s frozen entrée had to offer. I was pleased with the flavor. …
Bentley’s English Breakfast Tea
There are so many varieties of tea’s out there, and I have tried many of them. One tea that I find to be particularly delicious and soothing is Bentley’s English Breakfast Tea. It’s great with added ingredients and just fine by itself.
I had thought as a child that this …
Minute Maid’s Pulpy Orange
Minute Maid’s Pulpy Orange is an orange drink with a new twist. The name says it all. It contains natural orange pulp that sets it apart from regular commercialized orange juices. It just took me one sip to know that this drink would be a regular in our fridge. …
Danon Activia Low-Fat Yogurt
Ever had that bloated, get-out-of-my-face, I have PMS and a handgun feeling?

Simply Orange Juice by Tropicana
I drink orange juice more than any other beverage. I would say that I am a pretty good analyzer of whats good orange juice. I have tried virtually all of the orange juices sold at my neighborhood Frys store.
I noticed a new orange juice being offered at Frys about …
Vindi, Apple Juice Drink
This juice is excellent specially when it is cold from the fridge, it is so refreshing but it is a bit less perfect than I expected. I like it because it isn’t dense and it is very clear, you really don’t feel it is sweet while you drink it …
Best Choice Frozen Leaf Spinach
One of my favorite dishes to prepare is Italian spinach with garlic and parmesan cheese. I usually make this as a side dish once a week on spaghetti night. My husband insists that I use a name brand frozen spinach because he is accustomed to only buying …
Lipton Green Tea

Coffee Baileys
For Christmas this year my drink of choice was Baileys, as it is every year. This time however I decided to opt for their Coffee flavour to ring the changes. Baileys, for those of you who don’t know, is a cream liqueur which is usually drunk alone …
Blue Bunny’s Red Velvet Ice Cream
Being an ice cream cake lover, it was no surprise that I found myself drawn to the Red Velvet ice cream by Blue Bunny. Everything about this ice cream called to my sweet tooth. The creamy vanilla base, with a mix of cream cheese and the delicate red velvet …
Lipton Japanese Green Tea
I love bottled Iced Tea Drinks. I have tried almost every iced tea, plain or with flavors that was introduced in the market. Most of the time, i would be disappointed because some are just too sweet, some are too coarse and others seemed to taste like medicines and …
Mrs. Freshley’s Chocolate Cupcakes
I much prefer the Mrs. Freshley’s SnackAway Chocolate Cupcakes as opposed to the originals. The reason I do not care for these cupcakes is because there is a lot more sugar and calories and other bad things to be found within these cupcakes, and while the SnackAway version of …
Our Family Baked Beans
I picked up a chicken dinner from one of the local grocery stores last night. And, since I didn’t want to pay deli prices on side dishes, I went to the actual grocery section to pick up a can of baked beans.
Normally, I would get Bush’s baked beans. But, …
Hostess Donettes - Chocolate
These Hostess Donettes - Chocolate variety are downright terrible! The chocolate flavor that coats these donuts really does not taste like chocolate at all! What happened to the rich and delicious chocolate used for the Hostess Cupcakes, Suzy Q’s, Ding Dongs and similar products? This chocolate tastes like some …
Ice Breakers Iced Tea Lemon Mints (Sugar Free)
I love mints; I think they are a very good substitution for gum and in some cases, they actually may do the freshening job better then chewing gum. Usually I impulse buy a pack of mints at the grocery store checkout line, and sometimes the ones I pick out …
Verleo Catering
I recently attended a house party which got Verleo Catering to cater its food. The host was very excited about the food and we were all hyped up about it, as we had also heard some good reviews about Verleo. When we arrived, the tables and …
Prego Roasted Garlic & Herb Pasta Sauce
So, I recently got some Prego Roasted Garlic & Herb Pasta Sauce for my ziti pasta and I must say it was so tasty. The sauce wasn’t super garlicky tasting and the herbs tasted so fresh. It was thick and full of tomatoes too. Loved it.
The way I …
Quaker’s Apple Cinnamon Instant Oatmeal Packet
Quaker is known for its variety of breakfast and snack foods that not only promise health but also promise great taste as well. With their box of instant apple cinnamon oatmeal packets, there is no doubt that it has made breakfast very simple, but the flavor is not that …
Schogetten Praline Noisettes chocolates
I am quite a fan of the Schogetten range of chocolate, which is easily available, at least in most of Europe, from Aldi and Lidl stores. In my case I tend to go to Aldi, but that is simply because it is the closer of the two to where …
Accents Flavor Enhancer
One day, while “chewing the fat” with a fellow employee at work, I was told about a wonderful seasoning enhancer named Accents. I hadn’t heard a thing about it, and my co-worker was extremely surprised- to say the least. She told me that she’d bring me a little in …
Sunshine Snacks CheeZees

Cooper’s Cheesy Breadsticks
Cooper’s Cheesy Breadsticks sell for two dollars and nineteen cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Five cheesy breadsticks come in a box. Breadsticks that are filled with cheese aren’t cheap, regardless of what store I go to, but the Cooper’s brand found at ALDI Food Markets is about the …
Millville Apple Cinnamon Crispy Oats
I feel that the name of this cereal is not very appropriate because I do not feel that there is much apple cinnamon flavor at all and also the cereal is only slightly crispy, but also a little on the soft side, and this is all without milk. This …
Pataks Curry Sauces
I do enjoy a curry, I like to cook them and I like to go out and have one as well but if I did that all the time then I would be out of pocket and probably very overweight. I suppose this is why it’s so great that …
Linda Mccartney Deep Country Pie 664g
My recent decision to become a vegetarian again has lead to me to try some convenience vegetarian foods. Sometimes you just don’t want to create a meal from scratch, sometimes there just isn’t time. Convenience foods can work out more expensive than creating a meal yourself but …
