Carvel Ice Cream Cakes
I am getting on in years (almost 35) but I still reflect on the days when as children going to a Birthday was special because you knew that there would be a cake, games and other amazing goodies. Sometime in the 80’s the commercial for Fudgey the Whale ice …
Maggie noodles
My husband is a food lover and he always insists me to prepare different kinds of food for him. Even my kids love to taste different kinds of food. Last week I tried Maggie noodles for the first time. I prepared it in the evening as …
Aquafina
Aquafina - “pure water, pure taste”
That’s the slogan the folk’s over at Aquafina use to describe their product. I always considered Aquafina the best and most refined bottled water on the market.
Some people not see the value in drinking bottles water, but drinking purified water has a host of …
Kathy Ireland Home Baked Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Candle
I love candles. They smell so good and relax me. I especially love food smelling candles. I love this one by Kathy Ireland. You can find these at Wal Green’s and probably Wal Mart. It looks like it’s made for the kitchen; it comes in a long-ish jar and …
Michelina’s Manicotti
I often times have dinner alone, as my husband works second shift half of the week, and doesn’t get home until around mid night. I try to wait on him, but I get hungry around seven in the evening, and it is torture trying to wait five more hours …
Pepsi Cola: 24 Pack - 24 ounce bottles
Whenever I do my shopping at Sam’s Club, I like to review my list and see what maybe I haven’t reviewed yet that I could put forward to those like me who need to save money and yet still want to enjoy some of those things that aren’t essential, …
Indomie - Mie Goreng - Instant Fried Noodle
I am a lover of instant food. I know it’s not healthy, but they are very convenient and practical, and some of them are really good tasting. One of my favorite is Instant Fried Noodle, from Indomie. They do not have the lowest calories of food …
Total 100% Whole Grain Cereal
At first, I was skeptical of Total 100% Whole Grain Cereal but I saw it on a television commercial and was impressed with the claim of providing 100% daily value of 12 vitamins and minerals. I found it on sale at my local Kroger for $2.89 and …
Bremer Select Meat Lasagna
Bremer Select Meat Lasagna is a full-sized frozen lasagna that I’ve only seen at ALDI Food Market stores. This lasagna is intended to feed a family of four and sells for eight dollars and ninety-nine cents. It’s a frozen food product, so no preparation is required. It cooks in …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Balsamic Garlic Chicken
I’ve tried a lot of the Café Steamers but this is the first Mediterranean Café Steamer I purchased. I’ve tried Healthy Choice’s Mediterranean Pasta from their All Natural line and wasn’t too happy with it. But this steamer had a lot of components I liked, such as …
Gourmet Dining Frozen Dinner
I recently purchased the Chicken Parmigiana Skillet Dinner from Gourmet Dining and, while I did have at least one complaint about the product, found myself being legitimately satisfied with my purchase.
The Gourmet Dining frozen skillet dinner was both easy to make and great tasting. It wasn’t too salty like …
Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls to be pretty much standard fare. By standard fare, I mean that there is nothing that really sets these Swiss Rolls apart from those made by other companies. In fact, Little Debbie offers a packaged variety of Swiss Rolls that have different fillings …
Post Shredded Wheat and Bran, Bite Size
Cereal was my favorite food before I became hypoglycemic, and I would eat it for most of my meals. After getting sick, I was faced with the realization that I would have to say “Goodbye” to most of my beloved brands. One that I can still enjoy, …
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 …
McCormick Garlic Powder
I really enjoy eating garlic toast, which is what first drew me to McCormick garlic powder. The garlic powder is already made into, well, a powder, which is easy to put on toast. In order to make garlic toast all I have to do is spread some butter on …
Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Macaroni and Cheese: Cheddar
So it seems like nowadays more brands are getting on what I like to call the band wagon of Macaroni and cheese. There’s so many variations out there that sometimes it can get a little overwhelming. Many of us are big fans of Kraft, and know nothing else. I’m …
Sugar free Red Bull energy drink
I won’t be the first college student to tell you that I’m a little bit addicted to Red Bull. I often opt to buy the energy drink—”$2.75 seems to be the average price in New York City—”instead of giving in to sleep during long study sessions and essay-writing …
K Street Bagel and Cafe
Finally, I found a decent bagel in Washington, DC. Having grown up in NY and also being a big fan of a good bagel, living in Washington, DC for the most part means I have been deprived of one of my favorite treats.
So imagine my delight when …
Nesvita probone milk
Nesvita probone milk with calcilock is a product of Nestle. It is a low fat milk which offers many health benefits to consumers. I had a habit of comparing and checking first the labels and nutritional information before buying foods in the supermarket, because it is always a must …
KRAFT Velveeta Shells & Cheese with Bacon
I have tried making KRAFT Velveeta Shells & Cheese with Bacon for the first time, and both my husband and I liked it. It is a quick and tasty side dish, or even a meal if you are not very hungry. The pack includes shell noodles, a pouch of …
Sainsbury’s White Bagette with Sesame Seed
This White Bagette with Sesame Seed can be found in Sainsbury’s in-store bakery. They are always fresh and delicious and not only that, they are very cheap I think at only 65 pence for this rather jumbo sized bagette. This is a big, thick bagette that measures …
Cream-o cookies
A few days ago, when I went to the supermarket, the Oreo cookies were surprisingly cheap, so I bought a box without thinking it twice. Once I arrived home and I ate one, I realized that the taste was different, and after taking a good look at the box …
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 …
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, …
Kraft Cheez Whiz
I love cheese and almost all the dairy products, I grow up in farm and we always drink milk and eat bread with home made cheese. This time when I buy stuffs to grocery stores I make sure to buy cheese and milk so my kids can eat them …
Entenmann’s donuts
My husband just loves Entenmann’s donuts. He thinks they are the greatest, and this is what convinced me to try them. They come in boxes of 8, fairly large donuts. They come in different varieties as well. There are boxes of mixed assortements (regular, powdered …
Pan di Stelle chocolate rolls, Mulino Bianco
Mulino Bianco is a very popular Italian brand; they make mostly bread, biscuits but different kind of rolls too. The other day my sister wanted to try Pan di Stelle chocolate rolls, we don’t usually buy similar stuff because they just make you fat because they are sweet and …
Crystal Light Pink Lemonade Drink Mix (2 Qt. Size Packets)
Crystal Light is a popular way to get a flavored drink without too many calories or too much sugar as a consequence. On average, a serving of a drink made with Crystal Light has about five calories, compared to the 100-200 that can be in the standard fruit …
Arby’s Large Roast Beef
Arby’s has worked on changing their image for a number of years now, offering more upscale items such as their market-fresh sandwiches and other items. What it all comes down to in my mind though is the roast beef. They’ve always been the place to go for the best …
Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Real Cheesecake
I really cannot tell the difference between this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Real Cheesecake and the homestyle cheesecake. I cannot say that I know what they mean by the use of the word “real”. I originally thought that it meant that this cheesecake would be closer in taste …
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza
One of the truly outstanding values that is available at your Aldi food store is Mama Cozzi’s Pizza. The cost for one of these 16 inch pizzas is about six dollars. You would be hard pressed to find a similar size pizza for that price to be perfectly …
Milka Mini Snow Balls
If you like Milka chocolate as much as I do than I must recommend you to try Milka Mini Snow Balls because they are just delicious. I adore seasonal products because they always come in nice looking bags and wrappings plus as they are seasonal they are expensive at the …
Combos-Nacho Cheese
Who ever thought of combos deserves an award. Combos are a pretzle, that is made into a tube form, and then filled with cheese. These are really tasty, and fillling. i usually like to go on a search for combos when im on a road trip and stop off …

Ashirwad atta

Poland Spring bottled water has a clean, fresh taste. It is pure, natural water from the springs of Maine. Poland Spring is the most popular and widely used bottled water currently on the market. The reason for this is because it is a name that is trusted and established. …
Jarrow Formulas Organic Coconut Oil
A few months ago I bought some Jarrow Formulas Organic Coconut Oil and oh man does this stuff have so many purposes. I use it for cooking, as a healthy supplement, and for beauty purposes. It is wonderful stuff and I will be always keeping this coconut oil on …
Great Value Baked Vegetable Crisp Snacks
These baked crisp snacks are no more impressive than the vegetable crackers also sold under the Walmart Great Value brand. Just like with the vegetable crackers, these vegetable crisps are mainly rich in pepper flavor. Now I love the smell and taste of peppers, so this pleases me. The …
Michelina’s Sausage, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Snackers
Michelina’s Sausage, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Snackers certainly had the potential to a quality breakfast food, but unfortunately the Snackers, as they’re called, suffer from poorly flavored and mushy sausage that just isn’t appetizing. I’ve had Michelina’s Gravy and Sausage Breakfast Snackers in the past, and with that breakfast …
Figaro: Mesquite Liquid Smoke and Marinade
I initially tried the Hickory version of this marinade previously and liked it tremendously. So when I got the opportunity again, I brought another bottle of that flavor and a bottle of Figaro: Mesquite Liquid Smoke and Marinade for ninety-four cents at Walmart.
I personally love to season my …
Milk Duds
Milk Duds are one of my all time favorite candy, so I just had to write a review about them. Milk Duds are sold at most stores, and you can get them at movie theaters. They make a great snack to eat while watching a movie, or playing video …
Ben and Jerry’s Mint Chocolate Cookie One Pint
My son purchased Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream and got a two for $5.00 special on it. He used the second purchase for my favorite flavor ice cream. Ben and Jerry’s version is a bit different than the traditional mint chocolate chip flavor so I wasn’t sure about it. …
Original Peppermint Bark Candy from Hallmark Confections
Nothing says “the holidays” like family and friends gathered together, snacking on sweets. My mother created plates of fudge, Frango mints, caramel cookies, sprits, Russian teacakes and more in the past. Then she was introduced to Hallmark Confections and its Original Peppermint Bark. So, along with making her delicious …
Betty Crocker Super Moist Yellow Cake Mix
I’ve grown up on the Betty Crocker brand, including their cake mixes. One of the ones I’ve had probably more than other is the Betty Crocker Super Moist Yellow Cake Mix. In my family, the yellow mix has been prepared because we view it as a middle …
Banquet Homestyle Bakes Lasagna (meal in a box)
Coming from an Italian family the words “lasagna meal in a box” is blasphemy; however in this day and time not all of us have hours to spend in the kitchen making an authentic Italian lasagna dinner. Limited time as well as strapped wallets forces us to find other …
Nestle Crunch Ice Cream
As I’ve said from my previous reviews, I’m a huge fan of chocolates, ice creams, coffees, and the random combination of these. Another delicious discovery of mine is the Nestle Crunch Ice Cream. Our family trusted Nestle from our choice of coffee, milk, creamer, …
Food Club Green Beans
My wife made an early Thanksgiving dinner last night (she wanted to have one at home before we had the real one at my parents) and one of the things she made to go with it was frozen green beans from the brand Food Club.
They were OK but not …
Magic Cup noodles
A magic cup noodle is a very interesting and very tasty product from Bakers. This is nothing else but the noodles which come ceiled or packed in a cup. This cup also contains some spices and some chopped and dried vegetable mixed with the noodles. We …
Chowking’s Pork Chao Fan
I love rice. There isn’t a day that comes by that I won’t include rice in any of my meals. During lunch breaks at school, I need to eat any meal as long as it has rice. This kind of meal gives me energy for the rest of the …
