Easy Pop Microwaveable Popcorn in Butterlicious Flavor
I love eating snacks while watching TV or movies. Sometimes I just grab a pack of cheese puffs but most of the time I love to cook microwaveable popcorn instead. I feel that the calories in plain butter popcorns are lesser than that of cheese snacks.
I walked around the …

Aunt Jemima Frozen Buttermilk Pancakes
Aunt Jemima Buttermilk Pancakes are alright as far as frozen pancakes go. When I am heating a couple up in the microwave, they do give off a pleasant smell, and when I sit down to eat them, they do taste okay. The quality certainly is not very high as …
Blue Bunny Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones
I found this Blue Bunny Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones to be a satisfactory treat, although admittedly, I did expect more from this ice cream cone. The vanilla ice cream, for one, just was not as good as it normally is. Generally, Blue Bunny has pretty tasty vanilla …
Hong Kong Style Noodles
There is a new kiosk that is very famous to office employees and others alike. The Hong Kong Style Noodles have simply made a remarkable “appearance” and have yet again revolutionized noodle meals. For only Php26.00 or half a dollar, you can already enjoy 2 pieces siomai or dumplings …
Zero Impact
Agreeably, staying in great shape is not a walk in the park. That’s why I’m delighted when my mom brought home some protein bars that she recently bought.

Breyer’s YoCrunch Yogurt

Cadbury Frys Turkish Delight
I do not think to buy Turkish Delight very often as I have more preferred confectionary, but I do enjoy it now and then. When I was a kid for some reason I did not like them. I am not generally keen on any kind of sweet …
Ironbeer
Well, I was introduced to Iron Beer a few monthes ago by a friend, and I felt it was good enough to make me write a review.

Amy’s Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake

Anyway it took forever to find anyone who sold their …
Buffalo Bill’s Pumpkin Ale

Triple Berry Loaf Cake by The Bakery at Walmart
I just love the Reduced-fat Very Berry Coffee Cake sold at Starbucks. But, I don’t want to always have to go to Starbucks to get it. When I saw this in our local Walmart Bakery section, I knew I had to try it!
While the Starbucks version contains blackberries, blueberries …
Lambertz Exquisit Biscuits, Coconut Flour

Swedish Fish Brand Soft & Chewy Candy
Swedish Fish Brand Soft & Chewy Candy is cherry-flavored and chewy candy item that I’ve come across in stores like the Dollar Tree. For one dollar, I can purchase a package that is a little over three ounces in weight. That’s not a lot of candy, actually, for a …
Astoria Pastry Shop Royal Oak Michigan

Season’s Choice Sweet Potato Fries

Product Description: Red Baron frozen pizza sold in single-serve slices that can be microwaved. My wife bought this for around $3.50 yesterday.

100% Organic Bigelow Green Tea

Mentos mini Lemon by Perfetti von Melle

Cranberry Raspberry Juice (Kirkland Signature)
Juice in big gallon containers from Costco. That’s what this is. Surely you who go to Costco now know that anything “Kirkland Signature” means COSTCO and ginormous amounts of whatever it is, and in this case it is juice. I bought this for our housewarming party. …
Campbells Chicken Noodle Soup

Snickers (Chocolate Bars)
I would admit, I am a chocolate monster. I do love chocolates and one of them is this very irresistible Snickers bars. Even if my husband would joke it is not good for my figures, I would just laugh it off and would not mind. After all he himself …
Betty Crocker - Warm Delights Hot Fudge Brownie
Betty Crocker - Warm Delights Hot Fudge Brownie is a delicious dessert to have, but honestly, I just will not purchase this dessert a second time even if I again have a coupon or it is on sale. Why? Simple. For the amount of money that I would pay …
Great Value Cornbread Stuffing Mix

One of the things we ended up making was …
Keebler Fudge Shoppe Mini Fudge Stripes
These Keebler Fudge Striped cookies are the 100 calorie packs. Pretty good I’d have to say taste wise. Not my favorite cookie or sweet treat to eat out there but it can definently satisfy me. The cookies have an interesting taste that do taste pretty good if you have …
New York Style - Cinnamon Raisin Bagel Crisps
New York Style - Cinnamon Raisin Bagel Crisps excel when it comes to the raisin portion of the bagel crisp but fall short in terms of cinnamon seasoning. For each bagel crisp, which is admittedly fairly small, a good number of raisins are crammed in. The raisins are tasty …
Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts Frosted Strawberry
These pop-tarts are a little better than the cinnamon/brown sugar flavor, but not by much at all. To me, pop-tarts just do not seem to fill me up and thus are not worth the money. I eat one and it is like I did not even eat one. Really, …
Russell Stover Candies Peanut Butter Egg
The Russell Stover Candies Peanut Butter Egg is one of the latest holiday treats that I decided to take a chance on upon my last trip to the grocery store. I tend to trust the Russell Stover brand. This particular treat is some tasty peanut butter covered …

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 …

Bertolli Vegetable Fat Spread with Olive Oil
This is an excellent butter-like spread from Bertolli. I do like the taste of real butter but of course these —˜spread straight from the fridge’ type spreads are convenient but they do not always taste so good. This one really does taste good and it has certain …
Burger Machine

Gorton’s Fish Sticks
I don’t eat fish sticks as much as I did when I was a kid, but when I do get a craving for them every now and then, I’ll buy a big bag of Gorton’s fish sticks.
The thing I like about the packaging of Gorton’s fish sticks is that …
Royal Breaded Fish Fillets
We bought this pack of fish fillet because it was offered in the grocery as buy one take one. We grabbed the opportunity to stock one and taste what Royal Breaded Fish fillet has to offer. Seldom do we buy such ready to prepare foods in Hypercity grocery in …
Dasani bottled water
The sleek, dark blue packaging on the Dasani bottle is what caused me to try it out in the first place. It simply exudes elegance and gives the impression that one actually does care about what type of water they put into their bodies. The taste was, of course, …
