Hostess Fruit Pies - French Apple
Just like the apple variety, the french apple pie made by Hostess is truly nothing to get excited about at all. Just as the apple variety boasted a somewhat artificial flavor as well as a dull apple flavor, this french apple variety does exactly the same thing. This is …
Aunt Jemima Frozen Buttermilk Waffles
Aunt Jemima Frozen Buttermilk Waffles are just as good as Eggo waffles. In fact, if I were served one plate of Eggo waffles and one plate of these waffles, and I was not told which was which, I would not be able to tell which was which brand. As …
Quaker Chewy Granola Bars Chocolate Chip Flavor
Grocery shopping with kids can be very exhausting, especially when you have to deal with hungry kids while shopping. I usually buy them a snack while we shop to make it easier. I grabbed a box of Quaker Chewy Granola Bars in the chocolate chip variety. I used to …
Pioneer Instant Gravy Mix
Gravy is an all around good sauce to go with almost anything. I like gravy, but am not the best at making it. I found a trusted instant gravy brand that I could trust. The Pioneer instant gravy mix is done within minutes and is thick, hot and fresh. …
Pringles Stix - Crunchy Wheat
Wheat, while it may not have very much flavor or cause mouths to water, is a pretty nutritious and important food product to have in one\’s diet. This flavor variety of Pringles Stix, if the word flavor is even appropriate here, is not something that is going to cause …
McDonald’s McMuffin, Philippines
For a university student who lives off-campus like me, mornings are always a rush which leaves small or no time for breakfast. Besides, I never really liked the idea of eating breakfast at any fast food centers since there are no available meals on the go that can be …
Stouffer’s Corner Bistro Margherita Flatbread
Stouffer’s Corner Bistro Margherita Flatbread is probably something that is geared towards vegetarians or for those that simply love vegetables. I personally find the sandwich to not be filling at all, really. It is sort of fine if I am not too hungry and it is lunch time and …
Bel Air Mega Sub
Bel Air’s deli has a bunch of different sandwiches to choose from, but their granddaddy has to be their Mega Sub. This thing is positively huge, and it is definitely far more than one person can eat, or at least, that’s my take on it. For it …
Cousin Willie’s Buttery Explosion Microwave Popcorn
I was so bored one time so I went to the supermarket to get me some snacks. I shopped for popcorn because I wanted to eat microwaveable popcorn. I actually miss the movie theatre’s buttery popcorn taste so I opted to get just a bag of popcorn to …
California Pizza Kitchen’s Chipotle Pizza
If you are ever in the Perimeter area, and are available for lunch, do stop into the California Pizza Kitchen (CPK) located near Perimeter Mall. Not only is this location very clean and professional, the food is always fresh and delicious. I ordered the Chipotle pizza one …
Meijer Cotton Candy Confetti Ice Cream
I was interested in this ice cream, since I’m always curious about new flavors of my favorite dessert. I was curious about how Meijer could make a cotton candy-flavored ice cream.
I have to admit I wasn’t really expecting a whole lot from this ice cream. I knew it wouldn’t, …
Albertsons Half and Pieces Lightly Salted Cashews
Albertsons Half and Pieces Lightly Salted Cashews was picked by me because of price advantage over full pieces. Around half of the box was broken pieces and rest was halves of cashews. The cashews seemed roasted and processed. Evidently the quality grade of cashews was pretty low. This was …
Great Value Sausage Breakfast Bowl
There is nothing like waking up in the morning to a home cooked breakfast , but who has the time to cook one from scratch. I absolutely love Great Value products , because they taste homemade and you can cook them in minutes. One of my favorite foods they …
Jell-o Pudding - Chocolate
Jell-o Pudding - Chocolate is not quite as good as the instant pudding that comes in the box, this ready-made chocolate pudding that comes in a three pack is still quite enjoyable. The flavor, although not as rich, is still on the same plane as delicious and I never …

Blue Bell Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Half Gallon Ice Cream
When it comes to chocolate chip cookie dough, I am completely obsessed with it. If it wasn’t for the FDA or the CDC saying eating raw cookie dough can put you at risk for E. coli, I’d probably consume it on a regular. So, imagine the joy on my …
Marty’s Cracklin’ Plain Salted Flavor Vegetarian Chips by Oishi
I have a new obsession - Marty’s Cracklin’ Vegetarian Chicharon (Cracklings) Plain Salted Flavor under the brand name of Oishi. This is manufactured by Liwayway Marketing in the Philippines. It comes in 26g snack size pack and 90g party size pack. This is packaged in foil …
Pringles Chedder Cheese Flavor
As a chip lover, I was very excited to try Pringles Chedder Cheese Flavored Chips. At a $1.50 (at my local dollar store) for the supper stack can I figured that I would give it a try. If I didn’t like it I would be out a $1.50 but …
Violife Original Flavor melting cheese for pizza
As a newborn vegan, I don’t really miss the cheese. I don’t ever crave it, my taste buds have pretty much changed, but melted cheese is still my greatest weakness. As soon as I went vegan, I started looking for the cheese alternative that melts. I have already tried the …
Kroger Potato Chips - Barbecue
If you are looking for a tasty barbecue flavored potato chip, then you most definitely will not want to purchase the Kroger brand barbecue potato chips! These potato chips are certainly crispy, but they are definitely not flavorful. There is but a hint of barbecue flavor and when I …
The Bakery At Walmart Old Fashion Cake Donut Holes
The Bakery At Walmart Old Fashion Cake Donut Holes is a product that can only be found at Walmart stores. The donut holes come in a transparent container and can be found near the bakery, typically. The last time I purchased this product, I paid one dollar and fifty …
Hungry Jack Easy Pack Blueberry Wheat Mix
This “Easy Pack” mix suffers from two devastating problems that really add up to one big-time disappointing pancake mix. First of all, the mix calls for water and not milk, eggs and oil. Adding water as opposed to milk, eggs and oil ends up creating an inferior pancake. The …
Wegman’s Honey Apple Oat Bread
I recently did some shopping at Wegmans in Moorestown, NJ, and decided to pick up some bread. I was going for whole grain when I happened upon Wegman’s own Honey Apple Oat bread (Apple bits with honey and cinnamon). Just the name intrigued me. I like …
PurAqua Purified Water
This bottled water brand is one that I have only spotted at Aldi, a store that carries primarily generics and off brands. Not only does this water taste pretty much the same compared with other bottled waters, but it is also sold at a price that is generally thirty …
Value Choice Pizza
I do a lot of shopping at one of our locally owned grocery stores. And, as a result of that, I have seen the Value Choice pizzas they have offered for sale. However, they were selling them for about $1 and, since I could buy a slightly larger Totino’s …
Nescafe 3 in 1 original flavor coffee
Nescafe 3 in 1 original flavor coffee offers a little taste of heaven. Considering the standard retail price of one sachet which is only PHP5, that is quite a feat! I’ve always patronized nescafe. However, before they introduced the 3 in 1 product, I could never get the flavor …
Wing zone bbq shrimp
I am a HUGE fan of Wing Zone because not only do they offer the best of chicken, but they also allow you to decide on the flavor/sauce you chicken will be drenched in. I’m a barbeque person, therefore, I am always ordering barbeque chicken wings; however, when I …
Sunbelt Fruit & Grain Bars
I don’t get a lot of time to eat breakfast in the mornings. Well, actually, I get time, but I would rather spend it checking my e-mail and doing a few other things online. For this reason, breakfast bars are important to me.
Sunbelt’s Fruit & Grain bars are a …
Cole’s Mozzarella Filled Garlic Bread Sticks Cheesesticks
Tasty is the word that I’d use to describe these frozen sticks! Every stick is filled with mozzarella cheese and boy does that mozzarella cheese taste really good when it’s real warm and gooey! We let these sticks cool for only a few minutes after coming out of the …
Wilkins Distilled Drinking Water

Banquet Chicken Tenders
I really have got to do some food shopping. I got home today for lunch and realized there wasn’t anything to eat. So, I ended up making some of the Banquet Chicken Tenders I picked up for my daughter.
They were OK but they weren’t great.
I only buy this brand because …

New York Style - Lightly Salted Pita Chips
New York Style - Lightly Salted Pita Chips are chips that indeed do not have very much salt sprinkled across their surfaces. There is certainly sufficient salt added to these chips to make them slightly salty, but not so much that the salt will be the only thing that …
Sanchi Sweet Milk
Out of the many branded diary products I use, Sanchi sweet milk is my favorite. Whenever I go for a jog, I always have at least one bottle of them, and at time two as well! Sanchi products are all delivered in authorized Sanchi dairy, which have many branches all …
Yoplait Orginial Red Velvet Cake Yogurt
After trying the “Yoplait Original Key Lime Pie Yogurt” I made it a goal of mine to try several others of Yoplait’s exotic flavoured yogurts. One of these flavours was the “Yoplaits Original Red Velvet Cake Yogurt.” Just the name of it made me very excited about trying it, …

Lady’s Choice is a sandwich filling by Unilever. The mayonnaise from it is cholesterol free and made from the best ingredients which are rich in Omega-3. There are different variants of it but the one I’ll be reviewing is the Lady’s Choice Sandwich Spread.

Lay’s Stax
I thought I’d try these the other day because I felt like eating something crunchy. I tried the cheddar flavour, for no particular reason.

Mrs. Paul’s Crunchy Fish Sticks
I loved eating fish sticks when I was a kid. Recently I was feeling a little nostalgic, so I bought a box of store brand fish sticks from my local grocery store. That ended up being a big mistake, because the fish sticks were mostly breading, and …
Malibu Coconut Rum
In pure white bottle comes one of my favorite alcohol drinks. It is Malibu Caribbean Rum with coconut flavor or simply Malibu Coconut Rum. Even though bit sweet to be called rum, this is one fine drink that surely can be a pleasant surprise in any party.
I first tasted …
Little Debbie Peanut Butter on Toasty
I do not like these Little Debbie Peanut Butter on Toasty nearly as much as I enjoy the cheese and peanut butter crackers made by Little Debbie. After eating the cheese crackers, these plain crackers just taste, well, plain. There is not much to them other than they are …
Ritz Crackerfuls Classic Cheddar
If you are in search of a type of snack cracker that is really very crunchy and offers a relatively rich cheddar flavor, then I would recommend that you give Ritz Crackerfuls Classic Cheddar a try. These crackerfuls are quite crunchy and when I bite into one, my taste …
