Almond Breeze Almond Milk Coconut Milk Blend
I am lactose intolerant and one of the milks I use to replace cows milk is the Almond Breeze Almond Milk Coconut Milk Blend. Another reason I choose to use this milk is because it is free from gluten, which I also have a sensitivity too. It is also …
Mott’s Natural Apple Sauce - Six pack
Actually, when you look at the label for this food product, it says Mott’s Natural Apple Sauce & Vitamin C. I like to call it a more simple “apple sauce.”
For me, apple sauce goes back to my childhood and one set of my grandparents. When visiting them, …
Blue Bunny Chocolate Ice Cream Sundae Crunch Bar
Blue Bunny Chocolate Ice Cream Sundae Crunch Bar is a decent frozen treat that could have been better, but is unfortunately held back by a few problems, in my opinion. First of all, the vanilla ice cream used in this treat is not all that rich or noticeable. It …
Charlie’s Grind and Grill Buffalo Wings in Nuclear Sauce
I just had a very filling meal earlier today at Charlie’s Grind and Grill at Kapitolyo Pasig. I have been to Charlie’s once before but it has been a while since I have tried their Buffalo Wings.
I have underestimated their Buffalo Chicken Wings. We have ordered a dozen of …
Lumberg Wild Rice Cakes Lightly Salted
When you have a soy allergy, it is very hard to find something to snack on that is safe to eat. Well, these wild rice cakes fit the bill as they only contain a few ingredients, mainly rice and sea salt. I admit I never ate rice cakes before …
Silk Pure Coconut Milk
I have been trying a lot of alternative milk products lately because my 15 month old son is lactose intolerant. We have tried lactose-free milk, goat’s milk, soy milk and rice milk in an attempt to find something he could tolerate in place of whole milk. I found Silk …
Jack-N-the-Box Monster Taco
The monster taco from Jack-n-the-box is like a bigger version of their regular taco. At least that’s what I would assume given that it costs the same amount as two of their regular tacos. When I was down south recently I had the chance to try a couple of …
Swiss Miss Milk Chocolate with Marshmallows
My preference of a beverage hot drink at anytime of the day goes to chocolate rather than coffee. I had found out about Swiss Miss chocolate from a friend and was delighted to know that one of its variants has an added marshmallow to the mixture. I …
Uncle Ben’s Fast & Fancy Broccoli & Cheddar
Here is something that practically almost never happens, or actually never happens- the meal in real life looked actually better than the photo on the package. And it tasted great too. I still can’t believe that.
I tried it the other day when I was to too tired to too …
Lucky Me Instant Pancit Canton
Whenever I have this craving for chinese noodles or locally known as pancit canton, I just grab a couple of packs of Lucky Me Instant Pancit Canton. This certainly satisfies my craving instantly.
Why would I bother to cook pancit canton the regular way, when I can have almost the …
Microwave Popcorn
Microwave popcorn is the perfect snack. My husband makes a bag of microwave popcorn every night before bed. I don’t always eat some but it is his favorite. It’s such an easy and good snack. Just a couple of minutes in the microwave and you have fresh hot buttery …
Oscar Mayer Deli-Creations - Flatbread Sandwiches
I’ve previously done a review for the Deli-Creations regular sandwiches, which are delicious and wonderful. About the time I was writing it, Oscar Mayer had just come out with another type of their Deli-Creations — flatbreads.
The premise is the same — you have everything you need for a …
Nescafe Coffee
I am a big coffee drinker and I find coffee to be quite a great substitute for alcohol, or the equivalent of alcohol for me, as I do not consume alcohol at all.
One thing I can confidently say though, is that coffee is addictive and I am living evidence …
Witor’s Torroncino chocolate candy
Witor’s is an Italian company that makes chocolates and very good ones I must admit.
Torroncino chocolate candy made by Witor’s looks like this: it has a shape of a small dome, it has about 10g and it has 2 white strips of glaze on it. It looks very nice. …
Big Vinne Pizza from Round Table
The Big Vinne Pizza is back at Round Table, and I just had to a review of this great pizza. The Big Vinne is a New York style pizza and is one of the best tasting pizzas in the world. I think that this Pizza is great because of the …
Kansas City Chedar, Vidalia Onion Steak Burgers
We ordered these Vidalia onion, cheddar steak burgers as a special add on to a pre - Christmas steak order we place for my father. When you order from Kansas City’s website they offer you all kinds of add-on specials for your order and this was one of them. …
Heineken Beer
This European Foootball Championship is really great time for beer producers. The championship takes place during the summer so there are so many men who will spend hours and hours in front of the TV. My father’s favourite beer is Heineken Beer, when he was working in Germany he …
Honey Walnut Shrimp from Panda Express
I saw this new dish from Panda Express and decided to check it out. The combination of nuts and shrimp seemed a weird combination but Honey Walnut shrimp is not bad combination. My first feel was that out of shrimp dishes in Panda Express Honey Walnut shrimp is the …
Grandma Rechek’s Homemade Stuffing
I had to run some errands before coming home last night so I told my wife I would just bring home dinner with me. After some thought about this, I ended up going to Rechek’s Food Pride here in Beaver Dam, WI and getting chicken from their deli.
Since …
Izze Sparkling Grapefruit Beverage
I can be honest and say, I enjoy a good crisp soda every now and then. There is just something satisfying about screwing open the top, to a ice cold soda and hearing the familiar frizzing noise that let’s you know it’s full of bubbly goodness. Then turning it …
Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Milk
Yesterday I did a review for Sunnyside Farms ice cream and in that review I mentioned I wouldn’t buy anymore of this store brand’s dairy products. On the same shopping trip, however, I had also bought this product, Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Milk. I did so because I …
Bigelow Red Raspberry Herb Tea
Yesterday I bought Bigelow Red Raspberry Herb Tea to help soothe my upset stomach and it seem to work really well. Plus I really liked the taste of it. It was sweet and tangy and I didn’t need to put any honey into it.
The way I made the …
Sargento - Hard Grating Parmesan Cheese
Sargento - Hard Grating Parmesan Cheese is a cheese that I must actually grate myself as it comes in a common triangular-like shaped block. However, I think the added work is worth it! This is delicious Parmesan cheese! It is always fresh tasting, and speaking of taste, I just …
Tropicana Pure Premium Orange Juice - some pulp
I have to say, after trying so many different brands of orange juices, this is definitely the best tasting, most natural brand and my go to brand. It seems to run a little but pricier than other brands of orange juice in the store, however there are often …
Mcdonald’s Wild Berry Smoothie
Mcdonald’s has recently added a new item to their menu : fruit smoothies. Currently, they only have two flavors available: Strawberry Banana and Wild Berry. This is a review on the mixed berry smoothie.
I love this drink a lot. It’s really refreshing, and healthy too! A perfect snack for …
Sacla Italia Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Pasta Sauce
I have been into red pesto lately as it has a more intense taste than a lot of pasta tomato sauces and also because it is very economical. They usually come in little jars but they are a concentrate and really I only use a tablespoon at most …
Kroger Value Peach Pieces
Kroger Value Peach Pieces are really not as good as I was hoping that they would be. The peach pieces did not strike me as being overly fresh - at least, they did not seem as fresh as they could have been. I know that peaches that are pre-sliced …
DAK Fully Cooked Premium Ham
I have been buying DAK Fully Cooked Premium Ham for quite some time, I really like this product. It is canned ham, very tender and soft, with added water that turns into jelly on the sides (my cat adores it). It is inexpensive, only $2.78, and fully cooked: all …
Goldilocks Cassava Cake
Have you ever tasted the Goldilocks Cassava Cake? It’s certainly one of the best I’ve ever tasted. Its sweetness is just enough for those who like it sweet. It’s also tender and soft so it’s really a delight to eat. At the same time, you will taste the cassava …
Steak n’ Shake’s in Ocala Florida White Chocolate Milk Shake
The Steak n’ Shake in Ocala Florida on South West College Road has been known to have excellent service and a friendly staff that is always patient and ready to serve the customers. Now, I have been a fan of their shakes ever since I first moved near the …
Cooper’s Cheeseburger
Only at ALDI Food Market stores have I come across a single, frozen cheeseburger from a company named Cooper’s. The frozen cheeseburger is flame broiled, and that’s what caught my attention as I really like hamburgers that are flame-broiled. Plus, the cheeseburger came on a sesame seed bun, and …
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Gingerbread Cookies
I was disappointed with these Little Debbie 100 Calorie Gingerbread Cookies. The reason I found myself disappointed with these cookies is because of a lack of flavor. There was not much flavor to be tasted at all. It was almost like eating a crunchy piece of nothing. I will …
Folger’s Vanilla Biscotti Coffee
Without fail, I begin each day with a hot cup of coffee. Over the years I’ve tried countless varieties and Folger’s Vanilla Biscotti is one of the best.
So many pre-ground coffees tend to dry out while they are on shelves in the grocery store or in …
Bama (Real) Mayonnaise
I have always been a die-hard Hellman’s mayonnaise fan, but after trying Bama brand mayonnaise, I am hooked. We were shopping at our health food grocery store, EarthFare, and I realized we were out of mayonnaise. EarthFare only sells products with no artificial additives, so when we went to …
Maggie Moo’s Ice Cream
Maggie Moo’s Ice Cream is a great ice cream parlor! It is of the same cut as Marble Slab Creamery and Cold Stone Creamery but it is definately set apart. The ice cream flavors are awesome, definately check out better batter, you feel like you’re eating cake, sooo good! …
Ensure Butter Pecan Drinks
Last month my husband had broke his jaw and had his mouth wired shut so I went to the grocery store to find him some things he could drink thru a straw.
Someone had mentioned to me about getting hime some Ensure Drinks, that they will have all the vitamins …
Triscuit Garlic & Parmesan crackers
There was once a time when I absolutely hated Triscuit crackers. I always saw them on the commercials and they looked so good. But when I was younger, I tried them and was so disappointed by how much “texture” they had. Ironically, it is …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Vanilla
Quite surprisingly, I never had an easy time tracking down this elusive fourth variety of ice cream. Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Vanilla is, for whatever reason, harder to find in stock than the other three varieties. I cannot understand why, either. I tried it, and there is nothing …
Fit & Active Pesto Chicken Flatbread Melt
Fit & Active Pesto Chicken Flatbread Melt is a frozen melt that I found particularly delicious. This is a chicken flatbread melt done right, at least, for me. It has some of my favorite toppings and ingredients and all in a relatively decent quantity too. First off, this sandwich …
Bluewave Breaded Popcorn Shrimp
Product Description: Box of frozen breaded popcorn shrimp available at most stores for around $2 per box.
What I liked about this product: One of the biggest reasons why I picked this particular brand is it gave me a few more cooking options than some of the others that were …
Pillsbury prepackaged Chocolate Chip Coolies
I am definitely a huge chocolate chip cookie lover. Ironically, the only pre-packaged refrigerated cookies that I’d ever bought were Nestle or store bought from Kroger. I decided to pick up Pillsbury cookies because they were on sale. This is one of those brands that …
Lays Kettle Cooked Mesquite BBQ Extra Crunchy
Lays Kettle Cooked Mesquite BBQ Extra Crunchy are potato chips that I will not purchase again for a couple of reasons. First of all, this potato chip just strikes me as being too sweet. I feel that barbecue should not be this sweet. I also found that the sweet …
Nissin Souper Meal Instant Noodles (Hot And Spicy Flavor)
Comes up with 3 flavors, Garlic Pork Tonkotsu, Beef Brisket and Hot and Spicy, this instant noodles is surely a treat for people who are always in a rush but wanted something filling to eat.
The bowl is quite wide compared to traditional Nissin cup noodles. It’s more of a bowl …
Han Kuk Mi Brown Rice 5 LBS. (2.26kg)
I bought the Han Kuk Mi brown rice from the Price Smart #2207 grocery chain store in Surrey, British Columbia on May 9, 2009. I have been cooking and eating white rice for so long, while my friends have been telling me that brown rice was more healthy.
The …
Caffeine Free Diet Coke
I am a huge coke fan however the sugar and caffeine do nothing to help my waist line so I had to find a soda that I liked as much as coke but without all the sugar.
I have tried regular diet coke but I do not particularly like the …
Little Debbie Snacks Fudge Brownies
Little Debbie Snacks Fudge Brownies are alright, but I must say, they really cannot compare to the box mixed brownie mixes. As ready-made brownies, these are okay and the fudge does taste decent. They are really quite soft and easy to chew, as they should be. The nuts on …
Skillet Masters boxed dinners
I love Hamburger Helper, at least most kinds of it. But, I don’t like paying full price for it so I end up looking for cheaper boxed dinners instead.
This search recently led me to Skillet Masters dinners and I was able to give them a try last night.
Overall, I …
Great Value Brand-Altern No Calorie Sweetener
I’m always trying to lose weight or so it seems. I recently realized that I have a tendency to include a lot of sugar in my diet especially with my morning coffee. So I thought I might need something to help me reduce the amount of sugar in my …
Freschetta Canadian Style Bacon & Pineapple Pizza
I have been looking for a good frozen Hawaiian pizza for some time. Hawaiian pizza (with ham & pineapple toppings) is one of my favorites, and I know a couple of pizza places that cook it very well, but I wanted to be able to make it at home, …
Blue Bunny Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream Bar
Well, I can taste the chocolate, but not so much the raspberry in these Blue Bunny Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream Bars. The chocolate is definitely quite prominent as it is on the outside and on the inside. The outside chocolate is dark chocolate while the chocolate on the inside …
