Tesco Value Flavoured Noodles
I like Noodles and I don’t mind even just eating a bowl of Noodles. I’m not the most fanciest eater anyway but am happy with Noodles, Pasta or Rice dishes. The other good thing is that they are quite cheap as well, so can be a filling snack for …
Fresh Stuffed Salmon Fillets (Albertsons #933)

Skippy Peanut Butter
When it comes to peanut butter, I am very particular about what I choose. I have eaten Skippy brand peanut butter since I can remember. I guess I just took my mother’s lead with it and very rarely tried other brands of Peanut Butter simply because I was used …
Ling Ling Potstickers
We made some Chinese food the other day and, because I wasn’t sure if what we purchased would be enough, I stopped off at the store and purchased a package of Ling Ling Potstickers to go with it.
I should have saved my money.
Normally, I like potstickers (basically a pasta …
Bake N’ Shake Barbeque Seasoning

Krusteaz Apple Crisp Mix
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 …
McDonalds McSkillet Burrito
I’m not a person who tries new things on a regular basis; at least when it comes to fast food. For the past decade, whenever I�ve ordered breakfast at McDonalds, I have chosen their breakfast burritos. And, I have not swayed from that once; at least until yesterday morning.
The …

Yoplait Light Lemon Meringue Thick and Creamy
