Jollibee’s TLC Burger
Today I have a burger as my snack prior to the lunch which I brought with me from home. I seldom buy burgers already from Jollibee since the news of them putting in cultured worms as their Pattie meat and not beefs. This news was rather disgusting and so …
Savoritz Saltine Crackers
We ran out of saltine crackers last night and needed them for something I was making. So, I ended up running over to Aldi (since it was nearby at the time) and picking up a box from the brand Savoritz.
I wasn’t expecting much from this brand; mostly because I’m …

Trader Joe’s Handcrafted Cheese Enchiladas
I really wanted to like these cheese enchiladas. They looked so yummy and I generally really like frozen Mexican food. Unfortunately, I really wasn’t that impressed with them.
This nearly 10 ounce package provides two cheese enchiladas in a microwaveable container. However, the microwaving instructions were confusing. They tell you …

Stouffer’s Bourbon Steak Tips

Starbucks Doubleshot Energy Drinks in White Chocolate
I can’t say that I am a huge Starbucks fan. It isn’t that they have bad coffee, but rather than there are so many choices and they are just a little too expensive for me to justify frequenting their cafes on a regular basis. However, there are times when …

When looking at canned juices or juice drinks there is a wide variety to choose from. I have found one that I really enjoy and it doesn’t cost very much at all. DEL Valle makes different nectars or juices from various fruits. My favorite nectar by them …

Mr. Pudding - Chocolate
I’ve only come across this brand of pudding at ALDI, but don’t feel too bad if you don’t have an ALDI near you and are unable to purchase this pudding because it’s a little below average as far as pre-made pudding snacks go. For just eighty-nine cents, these pudding …

Post Cocoa Pebbles

Popsicles are a stable of every child’s life. I grew up with them, in various varieties. My favorite, though, was definitely the Popsicle Fudgsicle Ice Cream Bar. How can you beat chocolate ice cream? For a kid like me, you couldn’t.
