I love hummus, and I decided to try out a new store brand since it was on clearance: Ziyad Brand. I bought the one in the yellow can labeled “Ziyad Brand Hummus Tahini,” and I wasn’t expecting too much from clearance hummus in a can. I was pleasantly surprised.
What’s …

There are so many local breweries in Asheville, North Carolina, and I finally got to try one of Highland Brewing Company’s seasonal brews: their Thunderstruck Coffee Porter. I really like porters and darker beers in general, and this beer is definitely a good solid porter.
I first tried the beer …

I am totally hooked on these chips. We gave them a try on a whim, and we liked them so much we have begun to buy them about once every week. We buy ours at Earth Fare grocery store, but I’m not sure what other stores sell them. Even …

This product was a total impulse buy at the grocery store the other day, and I’m really disappointed. I haven’t made brownies in a few years, so I don’t remember what brand I used in the past, and when I happened upon the box of Duncan Hines Chewy Fudge …

I’m a big fan of seasonal beers, but I’ve only ever got them on draft at bars. This was my first purchase of bottled pumpkin ale, and I was extremely pleased with what I got. It’s available for purchase at EarthFare grocery stores, and I believe I saw it …

If you like mild but flavorful salsa, you MUST try this salsa I found at Dollar Tree. Now, I’ve bought their 16 oz. jars before and they’re very good, but this one is 24 oz., which is 50% more for the same price!
We use a lot of salsa …

One of the weird drinks that I have had recently is the Monster Hammer espresso drink. I saw it while I was shopping at Big Lots and it caught my eye. It came in one of these mini cans for only fifty cents. Big lots usually has great …

A Review of Yamazaki 12-year Scotch
I often gravitate toward more sophisticated and classy forms of alcoholic entertainment since nothing soothes the soul and punctuates an evening better than some Frank Sinatra records on my newly purchased new-record-player-for-old-records playing in good ole’ Mono, the smell of tobacco, and a …

I absolutely love pastrami sandwiches. I like them better if they have a great dressing to boot. My latest favorite is the Heinz Premium Horseradish Sauce. In the Philippines, horseradish sauce is fairly uncommon in the supermarkets. It was only in one restaurant that I was able to taste …

Alright I’m going to be honest Hurricane High Gravity Lager is not a very good beer. I mean the taste is very strong and quite nasty. You are better off buying a Miller High Life bottle or some other beer. But this is really not the way to go. The …

My family has been getting Trader Joe’s Honey Nut O’s for about 3 years now. The price is around 2 dollars a box, for a normal cereal box size. I usually get three boxes at a time because they finish so fast. Three boxes last us about two weeks …

I bought these chocolate yummies a few days ago from Trader Joes. They were around 3 dollars and have 36 in the container. It sounds a bit pricey, but for the quality and taste, its pretty good. The crisps are shaped like Pringles chips and are made with Belgian …

I love yogurt with granola sprinkled over the top, but I wanted to try something new so I bought a box of the Kashi GOLEAN Toasted Berry Crumble Cereal and sprinkled a cup of that cereal over my plain yogurt instead with some fresh berries. To my surprise it …

The Monster energy drink brand is steadily making itself one of the most popular energy drink choices in the USA, and I can understand that. The fact is, they sell good product, and they sell it well. Their marketing strategy basically boils down to “You need something to wake …

I have been avoiding milk most of my life. As a child, I would eat cereal with orange juice or by itself when my parents were not around. At school, our only drink option was milk. I would eat my lunch and take just enough milk …

For my whole life, I had avoided breakfast like the plague. I thought or suspected I was allergic to milk. But I never dreamed that I was just as allergic to eggs. I would wake up at 8AM, but I would not eat until noon. …

I picked up Cadbury’s Milk Chocolate Filled with Soft English Toffee at the store yesterday because it was on sale. I really like Heath Bars, and was hoping that the consistency would be a softer version of a Heath Bar.
Cadbury’s Milk Chocolate Filled with Soft English Toffee is …

I bought one pint of Selecta Pistachio and Cashew Ice Cream the other day. I have been searching this flavor for how many months but I was so unlucky to find one. So when I saw it two days ago, I immediately grabbed it and paid it quickly. I have …

It was a rainy night but I still wanted some ice cream. I just had some mochi balls in the province and I wasn’t going to allow myself not to indulge on them again here in the city. I did some research and voila, there was a small café within …

This is a review of the cupcakes and not the cafe or the shop itself.
It was a great thing that during the time that I was craving for some sweets, my sister brought me a nice box of Cupcakes by Sonja. I really have heard about her cupcakes …

Nescafe which is a subsidy of Nestle has recently came up with several varieties from using brown sugar, sweet and mild, to the strong and rich variety. The latter is one of the variations that I really need. With my busy schedule and oftentimes extended hours at night, I needed …

I won’t be the first college student to tell you that I’m a little bit addicted to Red Bull. I often opt to buy the energy drink—$2.75 seems to be the average price in New York City—instead of giving in to sleep during long study sessions and essay-writing …

Jack Daniels Honey Liqueur is the newest brand of Whiskey they have made. I had it this weekend and I must say it is very potent and very good. The taste is so smooth and really does taste like honey. I think the drink is much better and less harsh …

These tea bags smell absolutely amazing when still in box! I like their pyramid shapes, they are supposed to provide better aroma development because of their shape, that be true or not they still look pretty interesting.
Tea has a decent aroma which is in my opinion just a bit …

There is only one word that can sum up my feelings for Nestle Chocolate Turtle candy and that word is love. I absolutely adore these little bite size morsels of goodness. All that these candies consist of is caramel, roasted pecans, and chocolate. Three simple ingredients that make up …
