Trix Yoplait Yogurt
Yoplait Trix yogurt aren’t just for kids. Now I’m not a big fan of yogurts and I’ve tried a lot of them. Some are chalky some are very sweet. Others are runny, grainy, too tangy, too bland, too thick. The thick ones you gotta eat slow or you’re liable …
Betty Crocker - Original Supreme Brownies

Chock Full o’Nuts ground coffee

After a while, the coffee she was making just didn’t …

Hostess Fruit Pies - Strawberry

Smith’s (Kroger Brand) Cottage Bread
