I was getting pretty tired of ruining rice. It is a food that I’ve always had a hard time cooking. It was always either too crunchy or too mushy. It’s hard to compliment a delicious meal with rice when you don’t even know how to make it properly. I …

I have had a craze on instant hot chocolate lately and I have tried lots of different brands, but this is by far the nicest, by the brand name Percol. Actually it is really gorgeous. I bought a sachet of Percol from Tesco for about 30 pence …

I just bought today Jolly Hotdog. I saw from advertisement on television that their Jolly Hotdog is back, with new flavors. Now it is available in Classic, Chili, and Bacon and Mushroom Tops.
Actually, Jollibee is my favorite fastfood restaurant here in the Philippines. I believe it has franchise stores …

I thought the Wispa Gold was new but apparently it is back by popular demand after being introduced as a limited edition Wispa some time ago. This is basically a Wispa bar with a layer of caramel just underneath the top layer of chocolate and can be differentiated …

I am the sole responsible for grocery and household purchase in my family, I take decision on all groceries that I purchase for my home, I generally prefer to purchase brands of Great value, may be for the fact that they give out products in little lower price, but …

This is what is colloquially known by just about everybody, certainly by me, as “Alphabetti Spaghetti” on account of the nice sound that makes. However, since it is not strictly speaking spaghetti (by virtue of being the wrong shape!) Heinz are forced to use this rather duller title on …

If you are interested in a delicious and inexpensive meal option, consider Maruchan Yakisoba Noodles meals. They come in a variety of flavors and are available in my local supermarket for less than a dollar each. You cannot find a meal that is much cheaper than that. …

McDoanld’s French Fries are some very good food. I must say they have a very unique taste to them. I really like them even more because they are nice and salty. I really like salty food, so I guess that’s why I like these McDoanld’s French Fries so much. If …

Nearly everyone likes chicken, but it takes so long to cook and not everyone has the time. Tyson’s Mesquite Flavored Chicken Breast Fillets are great for people in that position. The meat is extremely moist for breast meat and it’s all already pre-cooked. All you have …

Another flavor I have tried under Selecta is their Fruit Salad. This is a conventional Filipino dessert. Selecta made it a flavor of its ice cream given the popularity of this food. Last Christmas, I bought half gallon. Together with another flavor, this was the least favorite and it took …

I discovered this great healthy snack some years ago when I was still active at the gym. It was in a supermarket beside the gym, and at the time I
had vowed to not only cut my calories, but eat healthy as well. My only guilt after that though was …

I like Libby’s Vienna Sausages, they are tasty and soft, an excellent choice for a quick snack. The tiny can of 6 small sausages costs under 50 cents. The sausages look like hotdogs cut in half. They are made of chicken, pork, and beef; very tender and moderately salty. …

A friend of mine went shopping at a local Big Lots store and ran across Madison Street Champagne Dill Mustard. I had never heard of this brand, let alone dill mustard. But since I am a huge fan of dill, I was immediately intrigued. I was …

Season’s Choice Diced Onion Rings is a frozen food product carried at ALDI Food Market stores. The onion rings may be available at other stores that specialize in off brands, but I don’t know of any others that do. A sixteen ounce bag retails for one dollar and nineteen …

I am a bit of a wine fan and I always like to try out the latest offering from my local wine merchant. I reserve the expensive Margaux and Nuits-Saint-Georges for special occasions, so I am not going to be writing about them right now. However, the more popular …

V8 Juice, notorious for both health and taste. For Health, V8 Juice boasts a 70 calorie vegetable drink with no fats whatsoever, no cholesterol whatsoever, 600mg of sodium, 670mg of potassium, 14g of carbs, 3g of fiber, 9g of sugar, and 3g of protein. Truly notable. You might question …

One of my friends always buys these for me whenever they come over. Overall they are pretty good. They are chocolates, with caramel inside of them. Most of the time I don’t like caramel except if it is just a tiny bit of it. I do like these though. …

It is a real shame that these Sara Lee: Onion Deluxe Bagels are not as delicious as the Sara Lee Deluxe Blueberry Bagels. I guess my expectations were set pretty high after I discovered that Sara Lee makes about the best blueberry bagels that I have tasted, and so, …

I love Diet Pepsi. I think that I am addicted. The problem is they are not good for you. I don’t know if it is the carbonation, the taste or the caffeine.
The label says that there are 0 calories, …

I was never a fan of premixed coffee that usually comes in 3 in 1 forms. It is a combination of non-dairy creamer, sugar and instant coffee powder. They are either too sweet or too watery for my taste. I want to taste the coffee not …

I really fail to see what’s so spicy about the El Monterey Spicy Taco Picante Burritos. While I can see and taste some jalapenos and green chilies, neither ingredient is plentiful enough in quantity or strong enough in flavor to give these burritos a spicy kick. If both the …

Every morning I enjoy eating my favorite cereal which is Kashi Heart to Heart Honey Toasted Oat Cereal. I like this cereal because it is made from oat flour, sugar cane, corn, fiber, buckwheat, barley, honey, salt, white tea, grape seed, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, green tea, red wheat, rye, …

When I get hungry, I usually grab a piece of bread or a pack of biscuits. I was shopping in a nearby grocery store and I decided to purchase a big pack of crackers. I chose Rebisco crackers because it has four big crackers or square biscuits in just …

Before I go to work and jump right to business for the day, I normally go to Starbucks to have my regular caffeine boost to pump me with much needed energy for a very demanding workload.
Today, though, I tried something quite different. Instead of my usual routine, I …

I typically by Flavor-Aid Kool-Aid because it is a cheap affordable drink that my all kids like. Normally I purchase the 12 pack from Save-a-lot because it’s only 79 cents for the 12 packs compared to paying 10 cents each for them individually. That is a savings of 41 …

For some people perhaps G-Walk Food Street is not really famous, but it is one of the best place to visit while we are in Surabaya city, one of the biggest cities in Indonesia after Jakarta. G-Walk is a street where there are many food stores and restaurants are …

After two weeks of being sick and thinking I had the flu I ended up visiting the doctor where they ran a few test including a urine test. The doctor ended up diagnosing me with a severe bladder infection. However, knowing my history with bad reactions to prescription antibiotics …

Unlike their California-style garlic powder that I just don’t like, I really love McCormick Garlic Salt. The product comes in a solid, clear container with a red cap. Removing the red cap reveals the plastic filter with small holes allowing for easy sprinkling of the garlic salt, …

Last night I ate a really good Nestle Crunch candy bar. I must say that the Crunch bat is pretty good. But I will tell you about the taste and quality of this candy bar now. The Nestle Crunch Candy Bar tastes pretty good yet it has kind of …

I generally don’t buy sugar coated cereals , especially those that have quite a bit of artificial colouring added since they’re unhealthy and the older I get is the more likely these things will affect me. Nevertheless, recently I decided to lay down my rules for a little and …

Wow oh wow are these Little Debbie Boston Creme Rolls deliciously tasty! Everything about these rolls I find simply scrumptious and Little Debbie did a simply superb job of recreating the flavor and texture of the original Boston creme roll, from the rich and flavorful creme to the wonderfully …

One-hundred percent fruit juice isn’t always priced at what I consider to be an affordable amount of money. Without sales or coupons, juice that isn’t diluted with water generally runs for over three dollars. It’s for that reason that when I came across the Nature’s Nectar brand of mango …

I’ve found a new food to love, and that’s Krusteaz French Toast which I tried for the first time last week and which I intend to enjoy again the very next time that I go grocery shopping.
I have to say that I was extremely skeptical because the box espouses …

Even though I didn’t like the crispy seasoning by Bake N’ Shake, I wanted to try the barbeque seasoning because I love barbeque and the photograph on the box made it seem like it would be the best chicken. When will I learn? When will I learn?
>From the picture …

I am really very pleased with Mrs. Freshley’s Lemon Pie, with the exception of the crust, but the crust is bad regardless of which flavor variety I purchase, quite unfortunately. What pleases me about this lemon pie is the lemon filling. Boy is it ever delicious! The lemon filling …

I was so lucky when I won a promo during our neighboring supermarket’s anniversary. Although YBF products are quite unfamiliar to me, I gave it a try that it might have some nice results.
I was really hesitant to apply it at first knowing that I have no experiences with …

Wal-Mart has a brand of soda products that they sell for at least seventy-eight cents. One of the better flavors of this brand of soda is coconut wave. Not only is this flavor sweet and tasting just like coconut, but it’s fizzy and bubbly just like a normal can …

Great Value: Steamable Broccoli & Cauliflower is a variety of frozen vegetables that I likely will not purchase again. I have been trying to develop a taste for cauliflower, but I have not endured much success and probably never will despite my desire to like it. I thought that …

When I am about to catch a cold or feel the flu coming on I like to drink Garden of the Andes Organic Rosehip Herb Tea. It contains high amounts of vitamin C and helps boost the immune system so it can prevent or help fight off the cold …

One of my favorite foods when I was pregnant, where Oreo Cakesters. Delicious soft chocolate cookie with a creamy marshmallow filling, great as they are or dipped in broccoli soup … just kidding.
There are many ways to enjoy these but the best experience I had with them was eating …

While all three flavors found in this ice cream are certainly enjoyable, Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Neapolitan is not something I will purchase again. The reason being is the vanilla found in this ice cream is not quite as good as the all-natural vanilla variety or the french …

There is one thing that I can think of–off the top of my head–that I’m guilty of: Not learning to make brownies from scratch. Luckily for me, there’s Betty Crocker in the wing ready to help me out and impress my mom who know I can’t cook–I’m working on …

This frozen dinner didn’t do much to impress me. I think what ruined this frozen dinner in my eyes is the weak tomato sauce. There was unfortunately nothing special about it. It was just there. It didn’t contribute much in terms of flavor and so it didn’t enhance the …

I bought Amy’s Organic Brown Rice and Vegetable Bowls with Tofu on sale at my local Kroger grocery store for $3.44. The container is approximately ten ounces in size, more than enough for a hearty lunch for one person. I was drawn to the product because it is …

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 …

Product Description: Brand of Chunky Chicken Noodle Soup that contains pieces of chicken, noodles and vegetables. I found this at our local Piggly Wiggly Store a couple days ago for $1.79.
What I liked about this product: One of my biggest criterias for buying any sort of product is the …

I love yogurt, and since I have been trying to lose weight I have decided to include more of it in my diet, either as a snack or sometimes as lunch. Another thing which influenced me to eat more of it was when I found out that snacking on …

I never liked the fast food chain Greenwich and for the longest time, I felt that their food items were below par compared to the food offerings of other fast food chains. Yes, the food items are very affordable but then the quality of the food is so poor …

A product that was purchased weekly by my family for years and years was Del Monte Tomato Sauce. Primarily, we used this sauce as an ingredient for our weekly spaghetti. It’s the most reliable and tasty of the basic can sauces out there in my opinion.
Del Monte …

I love Juice and often look to keep some stocked at all times. I usually try to keep cranberry, and grape juice, but at times I like to mix it up and find different flavors. This is how I came across, Honest Splash Super Fruit Punch Beverage.
I am no …
