Savoritz All Natural Soup, Chili & Chowder Crackers
Savoritz All Natural Soup, Chili & Chowder Crackers remind me very much of oyster crackers. They look very similar and taste similar, too. These little crackers are crunchy and lightly flavored with butter. I prefer to use them when I have soup or chili because of their size. If …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Homemade Chocolate
Although I am normally not overly crazy when it comes to chocolate, Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Homemade Chocolate is really a terrific taste sensation. The chocolate flavor is quite rich and authentic, and the ice cream itself is fairly creamy! I like to add hot fudge on top …

I really like ginger root. I always ad it to my food and also to the teas that I am making but ginger root can be very expensive and it does not last for a long time. Sometimes I buy it when it is not discount and it just goes …

Rougemont Apple Juice Drink
When we were young we were taught that ” an apple a day, keeps the doctor away”. Since I can remember that, I have given importance to apple as part of our daily diet. Having extensively read the pages of Men’s Health magazine, I learned that apple can help …
Sara Lee Soft and Smooth Wheat Bread
Sara Lee Soft and Smooth Wheat Bread was tried by me for taking a break from usual white breads that I buy and also because of health conscious decision to get some whole grains in the diet. As the name suggest, the bread was soft and smooth. To my …
Kolumbo Kras chocolate bar
This is a Croatian version of Toblerone, it is good and cheaper than toblerone, but it is not that good as toblerone. It is in a red triangular wrapping with white letters Kolumbo on it. It comes in 100g wrapping and in 200g ones.
The taste of the chocolate is …
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, …

Another Pizza from the Chicago Town Edge to Edge range. As I mentioned I like to eat Pizza and eat a fair few. This is probably because it is 1 of my most favourite foods and this range of Pizza is slightly different to other Pizza’s out there. This …
Carnation Hot Chocolate drink mix
I drink quite a bit of hot chocolate, especially in the winter. I probably have a mug or two of it each day because I don’t really drink coffee. So because of this, I have tried lots of different kinds of hot chocolate.
I find that I prefer Nestle Carnation …
Hostess Cupcakes
A favorite snack growing up was Hostess Cupcakes. Hostess is one of the more reputable brands with a good history behind it. As a kid, that didn’t matter to me much, but it does now.
Hostess Cupcakes are chocolate cupcakes with a creamy filling. Each cake has …
Hurricane High Gravity Lager
Alright I’m going to be honest Hurricane High Gravity Lager is not a very good beer. I mean the taste is very strong and quite nasty. You are better off buying a Miller High Life bottle or some other beer. But this is really not the way to go. The …
Swiss Miss French Vanilla cocoa
I love to have a hot chocolate after I have had my daily walk home from work, as I walk almost two dollars in an effort to save as much money as I possibly can for my heating expenses. Asides from that, it is great exercise. Well, anyhow, when I …
Whole Foods 365 Organic Everyday Value Pie Crust
I tried Whole Foods 365 Organic Everyday Value Pie Crust once when it was on sale. The regular price is nearly three dollars and I am real glad that I did not pay regular price! Now the pie crust is not terrible, it is actually pretty decent, but it …
Calzones at the J
The “J” cafeteria at Humboldt State University serves calzones for lunch every tuesday. A calzone is like a small pizza without the sauce that is folded in half and closed, so it’s like a big home-made cheesey pizza pocket. The cost is $1.10 with a meal plan …
Pioneer Instant Gravy Mix
Gravy is an all around good sauce to go with almost anything. I like gravy, but am not the best at making it. I found a trusted instant gravy brand that I could trust. The Pioneer instant gravy mix is done within minutes and is thick, hot and fresh. …
Amazing Cones’ Flaming Fajita Pizza Cone
Just when I least expected it, I came across a new type of pizza. It was Amazing Cones. Amazing Cones is a restaurant that serves pizza, dessert and ice cream. The best part is that Amazing Cones is named as such because the pizza is rolled in a cone. …
Alberto VO5 Tea
Few months ago, I saw a store having a closing sale. Because I have a tight budget, I decided to visit the place and buy some things that I need at home. True, I was able to buy a lot of products like cosmetics, clothes and health products at …
Mountain Dew
I have always seen Mountain Dew advertisements on the television with it’s catch slogan “Do the Dew” I never thought much of it or even thought about trying it, till recently.
My dad bought a bottle of what he and his friends fondly call “Dragon Blood” because of it’s green …
Slimfit Tropical Fruit Powdered Drink
A lot of slimming products in the market are quite competing with one another with claims like ‘fastest fat burner’ or ‘contains 100% L-Carnitine’. However, my mom recommended Slimfit for me. It doesn’t sound popular in the market nowadays but I find it very effective.
I was having a hard …

Sierra Mist Soda
Sierra Mist Soda came out years ago from PepsiCo as their response to the popularity of their rival’s 7-Up Soda. I love 7-Up, but I was willing to try the new drink. Over the years, we’ve had it many times, just as my family has tried various …
Pasta Express
We received a Pasta Express for a gift. It is one of those As Seen on TV products, so we had never really seen it before - It is basically a plastic cylinder with a lid, in which you can easily cook pasta.
It has turned out to be surprisingly …
Aunt Jemima Butter Rich Syrup
Aunt Jemima Butter Rich Syrup has a distinctive flavor to it that separates it from the original syrup. The main difference is this syrup has a very real butter flavor integrated with the normal syrup flavor. The butter flavor is most certainly rich and real, however, that did not …
Banquet Beef Pot Pie
With a net weight of 7 ounces, Banquet Beef Pot Pies are a small, but tasty pot pie that is sold in a cardboard pie “tin”. Although the poultry (chicken and turkey) pot pies are my favorites, I also am quite fond of …
Palmer Little Beauty candy
In the past, I’ve purchased Palmer candy and I keep telling myself never again. The reason I broke that promise most recently was twofold. First, I was in a hurry and just picked up the box because it looked good. Second, their emblem and name is …
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 …
Priano Specialty Pasta - Rigatoni
I purchased a sixteen ounce bag of rigatoni under the Priano Specialty Pasta brand for one dollar and twenty-five cents because I was out of pasta and I wasn’t going to be near a Walmart that day. This brand of pasta is carried by ALDI Food Center stores and …
Santa Fe Enchilada Bowl: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
The Santa Fe Enchilada Bowl is another one of the meals that I have fallen in love with. I always feel like I have had a good meal when I eat this and that is probably because it has 16g of protein. With that amount of protein for 350 …

I just recently became a vegetarian and one of the foods that I missed the most was a burger. There’s something so satisfying about a burger. I decided to try the Morning Star vegetarian burgers and wow, they taste just like a real burger, and even better …
Anchor Full Cream Milk
Manufactured by Fonterra, I bought 788 gram for the price of PHP 187.00. This is the cheapest among the milk on the shelves when I bought it in a grocery store. Moreover, I have not tasted it for so long, I have been using Bearbrand ever since, but it …
Oatly Vegan Ice-cream
Vegan ice-cream is not something you can surprise people with anymore. America is the queen of vegan ice-cream and part of the reason why I’m looking forward to going back there this summer is actually the dairy-free ice-cream. In Europe, however, there aren’t that many brands that make the cruelty-free …
Crush Soda: Grape, Strawberry and Orange
Crush Soda: Grape, Strawberry and Orange
These are all great treats. The strawberry is my favorite but I love all three flavors. I am fairly certain that I have an addiction to these drinks ha ha. They are even good when they are not ice cold. I pack em in …
Diet Dr. B
Visit just about any grocery store, and you are bound to find their own store brand generic rip-offs of main stream products, especially when it comes to sodas. Diet Dr. B is another: it is H-E-B’s store brand of the popular soda, Diet Dr. Pepper.
It is rare that …
Aunt Jemima Pancakes and Sausage Breakfast
Aunt Jemima Pancakes and Sausage Breakfast is a breakfast I eat from time to time. Aunt Jemima makes a few different varieties, and while they aren’t as premium as some of their competitors, like the Jimmy Dean offerings, they are often satisfying and good tasting.
I do like Aunt …

Nakd Wildly Different Apple Pie Muesli Bar
I do not know why this muesli-style snack bar is referred to as —˜Apple Pie’ as it has nothing to do with apple pies. It is a rather different kind of very healthy snack bar that I was surprised to find I enjoyed as I do not actually …
Culver’s Fried Chicken
Being a huge fan of fried chicken, I have ordered it in many different places, and I believe I can say that fried chicken served at Culver’s is very close to be the best of the best. It is always soft and juicy inside, while the outside is that …
Werther’s Original Dark Chocolate
I had a feeling that these would be nice chocolates from Werther’s as the TV advert has been making me dribble with anticipation and indeed they are good. The chocolate is the most melt in the mouth chocolate I have ever tasted. To describe them, they are …
Rocklea Chocolate (Milk Chocolate Rocklea Road)
My aunt who came from Australia brought this Rocklea Milk Chocolate Rocky Road. This was the first time I saw this kind of chocolates, and found it too big. The package says that is a combination of fluffy marshmallows, toasted peanuts and toasted coconut covered in chocolate. The package …

Grandma’s Homestyle Big Cookie Fudge Chocolate Chip
This is probably my least favorite of the four cookie varieties made by this company. The reason it’s my least favorite isn’t because the cookie is poorly made, because it’s really not. I just like the chocolate chip cookies better since I love not only the chocolate chips, but …
