Healthy Choice Lobster Cheese Ravioli
I was interested in trying this entrée because I had never seen a dish with lobster that was affordable. For a pasta cheese dish, it was surprising low in calories (under 300) and low in fat as well. From the picture on the box, the ravioli looked …

I am not a huge coffee drinker like alot of people. I generally drink 2 cups in the morning and that is it. But I am extremely picky about the coffee I do drink. I know that their are many great brands out there, but my …
Hershey’s: Rich Chocolate Special Dark Syrup
Hershey’s: Rich Chocolate Special Dark Syrup is not quite as good as the regular chocolate syrup, but I did not feel as if my money was wasted on this syrup, so that is always a good thing. It really comes down to preference, I suppose. Dark chocolate is something …
Carl Jr’s Super Star Burger
This review is to discuss the Carl’s Jr. Super Star with Cheese. I’ve had it before but frankly it’s been awhile. Then a coupon came my direction and I decided it would be nice to have another one. I love coupons; they make some things a …

Stouffer’s Frozen Food - Lasagna Bake with Meat Sauce
Stouffer’s is one of my favorite frozen food companies. In fact, it’s the first one that I had decades ago that tasted like good food instead of plastic shoe string. One of the offerings I’ve imbibed on multiple occasions is their lasagna dish.

Lunch Buddies Strawberry Applesauce Cups
The Lunch Buddies Strawberry Applesauce Cups come in a six pack and the cups themselves are four ounces. ALDI Food Market stores carry this product for one dollar and twenty-nine cents. The blending of strawberry and apple flavoring works, in my opinion, because neither flavor completely dominates the other. …
Stevia In The Raw, Zero Calorie Sweetener
Stevia in the Raw is a product I was introduced to by a good friend. As the days go by I am leaning away from traditional ways of sweetening my beverages and foods. I do not like artificial sweeteners, simply because they are disgusting and I try to stay …

Progresso Light Santa Fe Style Chicken Soup
Guess what time it is again?
(Don’t break out in a sweat—¦I’m being rhetorical of course. Trust me, you’re good!)
It’s time to break out the old mythical lunch pail and thermos again to sample yet another lunchtime soup. (Can you tell I’m on a diet and working out again yet?) …

General Mills - Chocolate Chex
General Mills - Chocolate Chex is a cereal that did very little for me. I did not necessarily purchase this cereal for the purpose of having it for breakfast because I do not like chocolate for breakfast, really. It does not settle well in my stomach. I purchased this …
Sea Kid Crispy Pusit (Squid) Teriyaki Style
The reason why I bought Sea Kid Crispy Pusit is the style of packaging. I noticed the blue silvery color of the upper part of the packaging. The printed word of “Pusit” made me stop by and look at the product more clearly. There is a picture of Squid …
Gevalia Coffee Membership
When I’m bored the first thing I gravitate towards to is the internet, there is face book, google, and twitter that can entertainment me for hours, but even they have their limits. So a friend told me to google “get …
Special K’s Original Cereal
I bought this cereal thinking that it was a healthy source of fiber, protein, and along with the added vitamins and nutrients that make up a complete breakfast. However, I was misled because if you look at the nutrition facts, it does not have any fiber. The …
Douwe Egberts Pure Indulgence Instant Coffee

Bigelow I Love Lemon & C Herb Tea
Sometimes I like adding a slice of lemon into my tea, and sometimes I don’t have any lemon around. That’s when Bigelow I Love Lemon & C Herb Tea comes in handy.
The tea has very pleasant, natural lemony taste. It comes in a box that has 20 tea bags …
Healthy Selection Bell Pepper Pate
I have always been a huge fan of pate, but due to the fat content and cost, I rarely buy it until I found Healthy Selection brand in Bell Pepper flavour. This pate is amazing especially for only $2 for a 150gram package at my local Meat Market.
Healthy Selection …

I decided to try out some of the newer options at Mc Donald’s lately. I received a flyer with decent coupons in it for Mc Donald’s and it made the prices a more affordable option if I did not like the choices I made. Normally when …
Kellogg’s Live Bright Dark Chocolate Vanilla Bars
These bars are not nearly as nutritious as the box or the advertising claims them to be. There is a significant amount of high fructose corn syrup, sugar and the dangerous trans fat. In terms of calories, there are 150 per bar, which is not incredibly bad, but considering …
Popsicle Ice Age Slow Melt Pops
Three different kinds of popsicles come in this package: strawberry, cotton candy and lemonade-flavored popsicles. The one flavor that interested me the most was the lemonade-flavored popsicle because ice cold lemonade is truly a refreshing thing to have when the world is roasting outside. I figured that a lemonade-flavored …

Hamburger Helper Cheeseburger Macaroni
Honestly, you really don’t need the hamburger helper to make this kind of food. All you really need is to buy some macaroni from the store and the beef. The only thing missing is the seasoning, so that’s how they get you to buy the hamburger helpful. But this …

Rebisco cream filled sandwiches (biscuits) are good for those when they are feeling hungry, of just needs to be ready in case you won’t have the benefit of buying someplace near. These biscuits have been made by the Rebisco Company for 45 years now! What it tasted before is …
Campbell’s Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup

Yoplait Light Lemon Meringue Thick and Creamy
I LOVE this stuff. This does have the taste of something like lemon bars or some yummy desert with lemons. There is no aftertaste to it, in my opinion. I love the texture of it; it is smooth and creamy. It has 100 calories and 5 grams of protein, …
Jacobs Ice coffee
If you ask me there’s nothing better than an ice coffee drink, specially if it is from a bag and instant one because that means that it is quite easy to prepare it. I started drinking these instant coffee drinks about a month ago when I got one gratis …
Little Debbie Christmas Ginger Cookies
I did not enjoy these Little Debbie Christmas Ginger Cookies at all. The gingerbread cookies did not have the flavor that I expected them too. In fact, they pretty much had no flavor at all! Did they forget to add the ginger to the recipe, or something? The cookie …

Balsamic Vinegar de Modena
