General Mills Cinnamon Burst Cheerios
While the General Mills Cinnamon Burst Cheerios cereal may be bursting with cinnamon flavor, the box that the cereal comes in certainly isn’t bursting with cereal. Ten ounces of this cereal will cost an individual around two dollars and fifty cents, depending on where the cereal is purchased. That’s …
Cadbury Old Gold Dark Chocolate
Cadbury Old Gold Dark Chocolate according to one promotion that I read in the internet is smooth, rich, dark chocolate that’s worth its weight in gold. Just the mere reading of that line made my mouth watery. So the next time I shop I made it a point …
Pooles Meat and Potato Pies
Like me I’m sure that you are always looking for something different to eat, you know something that will make a change. Well a couple of weeks ago I spotted Pooles Meat and Potato Pies in the freezer compartment at my local Morrisons supermarket. The photograph on the packaging …
Marky’s Pilipit (Twisted Pastry)
Another Filipino Pastry is the “Pilipit”; Pilipit means Twisted. This pastry is usually sweet and is often expected to be hard; more than crunchy, you have got to have a good strong set of teeth to be able to enjoy this pastry. I missed eating this one, and have …
Skinnygirl Tangerine Vodka
While vodkas are not necessarily thought to be one of the worst alcohols to drink, they still contain some calories and carbs that can lead to weight gain when overindulging. I heard about this vodka line from a promotional tour Bethenney Frankel did back in April. After trying the …
Klondike Ice Cream Bars
What would you do, for a klondike bar?
I think klodike bars are a really terrific ice cream. I like hard chocolate on my ice cream so klondike bars are perfect. What they are
are a square block on vailla ice cream taht has been compleatly covered in chocolate. …
Cap Colombie NESCAFE (Instant coffee)
There are people who atually prefer instant coffeee to the brewed stuff… I am one of them.
As such, I have tried many instant coffee brands, but I still find Nescafe to be the most suited to my taste.
My favorite blend used to be the “Classic mild”, which I still …
Subway (Berkeley, CA near campus)
Subway, “Eat Fresh,” so goes the slogan. Although I have never found Subway to be fresh, it is always been a healthier, delicious alternative to traditional fast food. Subway is one of those places that you will frequent once a week, because you know exactly what you are getting …
Lindor by Lindt
Lindor are chocolate truffles made by Lindt. This producer really has excellent chocolates although they are pretty expenive. Rarely would you find a Lindt chocolate for less that 1,50 euros.
Lindor is a series of truffles in 7 different types of chocolate. I haven’t tasted all of them because when …
Real Leaf Green Tea - Honey Lychee
And the green tea marketshare war lives on with the launch of Coca-Cola’s Real Leaf Green Tea.
A few years back, sodas ruled the Philippine beverage market. Beverage war was limited to Coke vs Pepsi. Enter John Gokongwei’s C2 Green Tea and the rest was history. Green tea drinks …
Blue Bunny King Size Chocolate Eclair Ice Cream Bar
Blue Bunny King Size Chocolate Eclair Ice Cream Bar just does not seem to work very well for me. I quite enjoy a good, flavorful eclair, but this is not something that reminds of an eclair. The chocolate in this frozen treat is not all that creamy or even …
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 …
Busy Baker Garden Vegetable Baked Snack Crackers
These crackers sure didn’t taste like much. Whatever garden vegetables are supposedly baked into these crackers came from a garden that I sure wouldn’t want to pick my vegetables from because they’re close to being tasteless, aside from a slight Ritz cracker like flavor. I do like that the …
Simply Orange Orange Juice
With the name of Simply Orange orange juice, it is quite obvious what the product is. But, I must admit I like the name because it gives confidence that there are not a lot of other ingredients in the drink that aren�t good for you. Simply Orange …
Brooke Bond Taj Mahal Tea Bags (100 Tea Bag Pack)
I am a tea lover. I love a rich and full bodied but smooth cup of tea with a bit of sugar. I do like my milk teas and spiced teas but there is nothing like a cup of black tea with just a bit of sugar.
In …
Krusteaz Bakery Style Sugar Cookies
I do not have sugar cookies too often, but when I do, I generally pick up Krusteaz Bakery Style Sugar Cookies at the grocery store because these cookies, much like their other cookie mixes, do not disappoint. The sugar cookies that come from this mix are quite buttery and …
Boom Energy Drink
Just a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that a new energy drink named “Boom” seemed to become popular in my country Jamaica. I didn’t know who the makers or manufacturers were, and I never saw it advertising either, so it appeared to have appeared out of nowhere to …
Whole Foods 365 Raw Agave Nectar
A few weeks ago while shopping at Whole Foods, there were some employees from a locally owned ice cream shop handing out samples. After talking to them, I found out that their ice cream is all natural and sweetened by agave. I had no idea what the …
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 …
Julio’s Corn Tortilla Chips
Tired of the “traditional” tortilla chip brands and looking for something different?
I was. I mean, don’t get me wrong, Tostitios and Dorritos are fine, but everybody’s had those (in the US anyway.) I was looking to try someone more “craft” and local/regional to Texas and I found them—¦Julio’s family …
Betty Crocker Helper Complete Meals Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo
Now while I love Betty Crocker cake mixes and baking supplies I am not a big fan of prepared meals and this Helper Complete Meals Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo really failed to impress me! I got this box of chicken, noodles and sauce as part of a Christmas hamper gift …
Hershey’s Cocoa Special Dark
I just found Hershey’s Cocoa Special Dark in the grocery store. I needed to restock cocoa, and had no idea that Hershey now made a Special Dark brand. I made my special cocoa the other evening, and my family agrees that Hershey’s Cocoa Special Dark is delicious! Hershey makes …
Best Choice Canned French Style Green Beans
My family and I are always trying to find ways to save money on groceries because it is an easy way to shave money off of our budget. We have tried many generic brands, and one of our favorites is Best Choice. We recently tried the Best Choice Canned …
Breyers Cookies & Cream Oreo
I was disappointed with Breyers Cookies & Cream Oreo ice cream. What dragged this ice cream down in my eyes was the lack of Oreo cookie pieces. I didn’t think the ice cream contained enough pieces of Oreo cookie to justify the price tag of nearly three dollars and …
Gardenia Wheat Bread
Bread is always part of breakfast. Of course, when there is extraordinary bread for sure there is an amazing breakfast. It only happens when my mother serve Gardenia Wheat Bread. For five years, we are eating breakfast with Gardenia and it never fails to give us high quality bread …
Tesco Arborio risotto rice (500g)
There is not a week that past by that I don’t cook rice risotto at home every evening but at that time I was just using a different brand which was a bit too expensive when I finally discovered at last this Tesco Arborio risotto rice for an affordable …
Maine Goodies Humpty Dumpty All Dressed Ripples Potato Chips
Maine Goodies Humpty Dumpty All Dressed Ripples Potato Chips are a mess in more than just one sense of the word! Not only are they messy because of the grease factor that is inexcusable in this day and age where it is not only entire possible but highly preferable …
Happy cow cheese
Most of us use the cheese or the cheese cubes while preparing the food, just to garnish it with and also to feed it to our children. Actually in my home we all are the fans of the pizzas. And without garnishing the pizza with the cheese, the …
The Snack Factory - Original Pretzel Crisps
If you are someone that enjoys munching on pretzels, then the next time you are at your local grocery store or supermarket, I suggest you take a look at these Original Pretzel Crisps by The Snack Factory. Now these crisps come in a number of flavors and varieties, but …
Twix Cookie Bars
From the Mars company, Twix Cookie Bars are a combination of chocolate and caramel that have a cookie crunch to them versus just a candy taste.
Quite honestly, I’m not a big fan of Twix Cookie Bars. They definitely do have that cookie crispness and that’s probably one reason …
Little Debbie Easter Marshmallow Treats
It is nice for a change to see Little Debbie put out a seasonal snack that is not a carbon copy of a snack that is a part of their year-round line simply with food coloring and a different shape. These snacks come in the form of bars that …
NOS Energy Drink
Crack in a bottle. Let me explain… These NOS energy drinks blow Redbull out of the water. The taste is 2x better, it may be because more sugar or more crack, just joking. This drink will leave you wired, however with all energy drinks with …
Godfather’s Pizza Southern Ontario
Godfather’s makes some of the best pizza around, for sure. They are absolutely delicious, especially when compared to a lot of the other pizza chains your going to be seeing in southern Ontario. Pizza Pizza is nothing compared to the delicious Godfathers Pizza.
I especially enjoy their Tuesday …
Hunt’s Four Cheese Spaghetti Sauce
Although not always true, the old expression that a person gets what he or she pays for is sometimes true. This spaghetti sauce cost just eighty-eight cents and it’s cheaper than pretty much every other spaghetti sauce sold down the pasta aisle. For eighty-eight cents, one sure doesn’t get …
Trattoria Alfredo Pizza Quattro formaggi
Hi there,
As you might have figured out by now, today I am going to review a frozen meal: Trattoria Alfredo pizza Quattro Formaggi.
I have found this pizza at Lidl, a grocery store and paid just 2 dollars for it. It was on sale so I wanted to see if it …
Hostess Fruit Pies - Blackberry
Like the pineapple variety, here is yet another variety that you do not see too often: blackberry! These Hostess Fruit Pies - Blackberry variety offer a pretty authentic blackberry flavor that I do enjoy. What I do not enjoy is the horrendous crust that really detracts from my enjoyment …
Krusteaz Apple Crisp Mix
Krusteaz Apple Crisp Mix is one that I purchase pretty often. The apple, cinnamon, oats, brown sugar and assorted spices all help to make for a delicious crisp mix! The apple flavor is quite authentic, which I suppose should not be surprising since real apples are used in this …
San Attiva Rosso
When a few days ago I went to a cheap shop near by I really got surprised when I saw a collection of new juices. Usually at that shop they always have the same cheap stuff so each time when I see something new I get excited because those …
Snickers chocolate bar
Since I was little I have always liked Snickers chocolate bars. Obviously I liek salty and sweet taste together. MY parents and my sister don’t like Snickers becaus ethey think that salty peanuts and chocolate just don’t go together so when I was little they woul never buy me …
Parati Minueto Caramel Filled Wafers
I love sweets and sometimes when I am in the mood for a light snack I love to turn to eating wafers. There are so many brands, varieties and flavours to choose from and sometimes I encounter a brand and flavour which I deem my favourite of them all. …
Franziskaner Weissbier Naturtrub Wheat Beer
Hefeweizens are my absolute favorite type of beers, especially as a light beer, but I typically prefer them on draft as opposed to in a bottle. However, I’m really glad I decided to buy this Franziskaner Weissbier Naturtrub because it has quickly become one of my favorite Hefeweizens.
This wheat …

Angelica’s Bakery Lemon Cake
After seeing another one of her other cakes, I wanted to try this one. Though, I’m not crazy about lemon flavored food items, this cake actually turned out to be the best. The frosting can be a little sweet for some but for me it was just fine. However, …
Nestle Toll House Oatmeal Raisin Cookie
I must admit that when it comes to cookies, my guilty pleasure are oatmeal raisin cookies. When they are made just right, and they are fresh and chewy they are the best edible treats in the world. When I noticed that super Wal-Mart carried the brand of cookies, I …
Arizona Green Tea With Honey
My family and I drink a lot of Arizona Iced Tea, especially since we are trying to cut soda out of our diet as much as possible. While there are still way too many grams of sugar for my liking in this beverage, at least there are the …
Del Monte Four Season Drink
I just love Del Monte, and I am so glad that I found out that they have this kind of juice drink. The Four Season juice drink. It helps me maintain my good healthy body. Same as I am eating a piece of fruit a day. It helps me …
Tofurky Deli Slices: Vegan lunch meat
For anyone who has not caught it in one of my other reviews, my daughter has become a vegetarian. I want to be as supportive as possible and allow her to explore this. I do not want to scar her for life or make her feel unimportant. So as …
Mrs. Fields Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies
As do many people, I find a lot of comfort and pleasure in having a sweet snack after dinner. Although I enjoy many different sweets, I have to admit, a good soft chocolate chip cookie warmed up in the microwave is the most decedent of all. Nothing …
Bermudez Original Crix Crackers
Here in my country, Bermudez Original Crix Crackers have been around for as long as I can remember. Bermudez Original Crix Crackers are fondly called “Vital Supplies” simply because they can be eating with nearly anything. My favourite thing to eat Bermudez Original Crix Crackers is cheese. But you …
