Banquet Chicken Nuggets Frozen Dinner
I’ve tried one or two Banquet frozen dinners over the past couple of years, and I always thought they were just okay. Given that they’re usually less than $2.00 per single-serving box, and when they’re on sale they’re about a dollar, I figured you get what you pay for …
Labatt’s Honey Lager
I’m not that big of a Labatt’s fan. Generally my beer of choice would be Corona, if I’m gonna drink anything. However, I have to admit that Labatt’s Honey Lager is a delicious beer. And with their no-name competition (Lakeport Honey Lager) being so cheap, it …
Tastee Cheddar Cheese
“Tastee Cheddar Cheese” is possibly the most popular brand of cheese which is bought in my country Jamaica. It may be sold in big, medium or small tins as well as by slices in most shops and supermarkets. A few years ago, the company even released Tastee Cheddar Cheese …
Tripel Karmeliet, Belgium beer
Living in Belgium has a huge advantage to compensate the high taxes: BEER. There are over 600 types of trappist beers in Belgium but I will talk only about one of them which very fast became my favorite. I have documented a bit about it’s history, and I have …
Kellogg’s Frosted Rice Krispies Cereal
I like Rice Krispies cereal, but I love Frosted Rice Krispies cereal! I find this cereal to be positively delicious, but unfortunately, the reason this cereal is so good is also the reason why a person should avoid it, or at least, only have it once and awhile. This …
Lay’s Classic Potato Chips
I confess to being a potato chip addict. I love to eat potato chips not only as a snack, but also as a side with sandwiches and hot dogs and such. I do not think that I have ever met a potato chip that I did not …
Minute Maid Pulpy Orange
There are a lot of fruit juices circulating in the market today. One of my favorites would be Coca Cola’s Minute Maid Pulpy Orange. A bottle of one liter of this delicious juice only costs $1. I know that this is not comparable to the freshly squeezed juice that …
Asda Fruit & Nut Chocolate
I wouldn’t class myself as having all that sweet a tooth, but when it comes to Chocolate then I find that I probably eat more than what I think I do. Chocolate is lovely in my view.
It is always the brand named Bars that I went for. Not …
Aunt Jemima Blueberry Pancakes
Aunt Jemima Blueberry Pancakes are, in my opinion, quite poor and I most certainly will not be purchasing these pancakes again. The reason I find the pancakes to be positively poor is because of the blueberries. When I first looked at the picture on the box, I felt that …
Planters Honey Roasted Peanuts
I really enjoy eating planters honey roasted peanuts. Im not usually a fan of mixed nuts, or even just regular peanuts. The honey roasted however are a great combination of salty and sweet that I really enjoy eating.
You can usually purchase the honey roasted planters nuts from the same …
Oscar Mayer Classic Bun-Length Beef Franks
I’ve always loved hot dogs, and I grew up hearing the jingle about Oscar Mayer wieners. We ate a bunch of them before my parents switched brands. I had no part of that; I was a kid. It’s only been in the last couple of years …

Pringles Select Potato Crisps - Parmesan Garlic
Pringles Select Potato Crisps - Parmesan Garlic features a flavor that is good, although could be delicious if improved. Neither the Parmesan nor the garlic flavors are quite strong enough for my tastes. Although I am not prepared to call them dull, the flavor is still not quite real …
Starbucks Peppermint Mocha
Starbucks has a yearly Christmas promo wherein they give you a card, and if you are able to complete all the drinks, then you get a free planner. Half of the drinks that you need to complete are from their special Christmas drinks, one of which is the …
Michelina’s Chili-Mac frozen dinner
This frozen dinner didn’t do much to impress me. I think what ruined this frozen dinner in my eyes is the weak tomato sauce. There was unfortunately nothing special about it. It was just there. It didn’t contribute much in terms of flavor and so it didn’t enhance the …
Food Club Green Beans
My wife made an early Thanksgiving dinner last night (she wanted to have one at home before we had the real one at my parents) and one of the things she made to go with it was frozen green beans from the brand Food Club.
They were OK but not …
McCormick Sausage Flavor Country Gravy

Mrs. Freshley’s Banana Pudding Cakes
I really wanted to like Mrs. Freshley’s Banana Pudding Cakes because I really enjoy the flavor of bananas and banana desserts and foods like banana cream pie and banana bread. Unfortunately, the banana flavor found in these pudding cakes leaves quite a lot to be desired. The banana flavor …
Fudge Shoppe Grasshopper Mint Cookies
Fudge Shoppe Grasshopper Mint Cookies are delicious mint and chocolate cookies. They have a layer of chocolate over the cookie. The layer does add taste, but it takes over the cookie. There should be more cookie than candy since its not sold as a candy. The actual …
Mama Cozzi Garlic Texas Toast
There is a store not too far from my house named Aldi. This store carries mainly generic brands of food items that are modeled after or resemble products manufactured by big name, national or regional companies. Everything at this store is sold generally at or below the prices found …
Messmer Fruit-Herbal Tea bags (Wildberry flavor)
Sipping warm drinks before bedtime helps drift me off to sleep. I found that dairy is not good for my body, but occasionally this sends me to the kitchen pining for milk. I deliberately cut down dairy in my diet and was persuaded to try herbal teas instead. …
Nabisco Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Creme Oreo Sandwich Cookies
When pumpkin-flavored foods first begin hitting the shelves as summer transitions into autumn, there is often a mad dash by a portion of the population to indulge in plenty of pumpkin-flavored goodness. Sure, for those that truly love pumpkin, there are a few pumpkin foods and flavored foods that …
Wine Lover’s Chocolate
I love chocolate. Unfortunately my aging body could no longer accommodate the sugar and the fat that makes chocolate so sweet and seductive. So I’ve learned to ignore the 99 cent bars by simply telling myself that they are too sweet and are not luscious enough. It was …
Kingsmill Tasty Wholemeal Bread
Kingsmill Tasty Wholemeal is one of my favorite brown breads. I have just purchased a loaf from Tesco for about £1. It was a pretty large loaf but it has ‘Medium’ on the label so that might refer to the slices, but anyway I thought it was …
Stouffer’s Monterey Chicken
Stouffer’s Monterey Chicken is a meal that I found to be moderately enjoyable, although not quite as delicious as some of the other frozen dinners that I have sampled from Stouffer’s. This meal consists of grilled chicken slices that have been topped with barbecue sauce. Now, the barbecue sauce, …
Flicks
Growing up, one of my favorite candies was Flicks. Flicks came in a tube that was about five inches long and was covered by a foil. The foil was in different colors, not to differentiate between varieties, but just to be colorful. To get to the …
Velveeta Cheesy Skillets Dinner Kit: Creamy Beef Stroganoff
I came into the know of Velveeta Cheesy Skillet Dinner kits when watching TV one evening and seeing the commercial with the black smith showing up to a woman’s door, and then showing her how to cook —˜liquid gold.’ The commercial appealed to me because for one it’s hilarious …
Bakery Fresh Peanut Butter Cookies
The weather is turning icy around here, so we went to the Dollar General to stock up on things that we might need if we can’t get out of the house for a few days. Of course these essentials included comfort/junk food. Peanut butter cookies is one of the …

Arizona Green Tea With Honey
My family and I drink a lot of Arizona Iced Tea, especially since we are trying to cut soda out of our diet as much as possible. While there are still way too many grams of sugar for my liking in this beverage, at least there are the …

I’m not sure if you have gone to the trouble and huge expense of ordering a Stuffed Crust Pizza from Pizza Hut, but if you have not, you need to at least try it once. Of course you won’t want to do this ever again. The price …

Accents Flavor Enhancer
One day, while “chewing the fat” with a fellow employee at work, I was told about a wonderful seasoning enhancer named Accents. I hadn’t heard a thing about it, and my co-worker was extremely surprised- to say the least. She told me that she’d bring me a little in …
Lemon Flavored Tic Tacs
I’ve had the fortune to come across this item that I’ve never seen anywhere else - it is not even released in North America yet. This is lemon flavored tic tacs. Do not confuse this with lime flavored tic tacs - while the lime one is GREEN in color, …
