Safeway Rotini Pasta
We recently tried this Safeway brand of Rainbow Rotini pasta, and found that it tastes really good for boxed noodles. If you like Rainbow Rotini macaroni noodles, you really should give this brand a chance. I enjoy it with any kind of pasta sauce. The noodles …
Kellogg’s Rice Krispies Treats (Individually Wrapped)
Rice Krispies Treats have become an American tradition, and considering the current need to simplify life and save time, these individually wrapped treats will surely follow suit. Gone are the days of sweating over a hot stovetop while you muscle a thick glue of marshmallow, butter and cereal into …
Sargento - Deli Style Sliced Aged Swiss Cheese
Sargento Deli Style Sliced Aged Swiss Cheese is my favorite kind of Swiss cheese, and really, my favorite kind of cheese period. The reason I prefer the aged Swiss over the regular Swiss is because I like the sharper flavor that the aged Swiss has to offer. It really …
Aunt Jemima French Toast and Sausage
Aunt Jemima French Toast and Sausage is a relatively decent breakfast that most certainly could have been tastier, but as it is, I did not feel as if my money had gone to waste. This breakfast consists of French Toast and sausage, nothing more. When I prepared it, I …
Hershey’s: Strawberry Syrup
Hershey’s: Strawberry Syrup is a syrup that is alright, but I was a little disappointed with. The strawberry syrup seemed to have a flavor that was not really very authentic. It had a slight artificial flavor to it that I did not like. What strawberry flavor that I did …
Pringles Texas BBQ Sauce Crisps
The Texas BBQ Sauce flavored Pringles are one of my all time favorite crisps but they never last very long in my house and I find them quite addictive. They come in a big tube and according to the label there are about 90 big crisps in each …
Sabah Tea
I never know the differences between different types of tea, so when I first saw this product, Sabah Tea, I seriously wondered, how different could it be from green tea? Aren’t they all tea?
One sip of Sabah tea and I know the difference immediately. …
Podravka Ketchup
I really like ketchup but I can’t eat every ketchup because I really don’t like those sweet ones which don’t even taste like ketchup. I’ve tried a lot of different ketchups in my life and I hated more of them than I liked them. Even some of the very …
Lean Cuisine Salmon with Basil Frozen Entree
I really like this entrée. I continually find that Lean Cuisine has great offerings and knows how to both make typically “unhealthy” meals healthy, and knows how to make healthy meals taste great that might not otherwise would. Their Salmon with Basil Frozen Entrée is an example, in my …
Goya Pineapple Soda
I bought a bottle of Goya Pineapple soda on a whim the other day when I was shopping at Foodmart. I never had a pineapple-flavored soda before, but I did expect it to taste a bit like a pineapple. Truthfully, this soda has a very odd taste. I noticed …
Ghirardelli Luxe Milk chocolate bar with hazelnut
Ghirardelli is well known for their chocolates. They’re a step above Heresy’s chocolates but not quite at the level of Godiva’s chocolates, which I honestly think is extremely over priced after trying it. Ghirardelli makes some fine chocolate bars and brownie mixes. Recently they’ve come out with a new …
Kroger Bakery - Apple
The apple pies baked at the Kroger bakery are quite enjoyable for a number of reasons. One of the primary reasons that I enjoy this store-baked apple pie is because it is quite moist. It is even more moist when I heat up a slice in the microwave for …

Sutter Home White Zifandel Wine
This is definitely not a fine wine, but it’s quite nice for it’s super low price! My boyfriend and I came across this brand in a gas station. He wanted beer and I wanted something, well, a little more classy… And on a student’s budget, even $6 bottles of …
Taco Bell Cheesy Nachos
Described as “crisp, freshly prepared tortilla chips covered in warm nacho cheese sauce,” Taco Bell Cheesy Nachos are pretty good to snack on. Now it’s important not to confuse this food product with Taco Bells traditional nachos that have been available for years.
Unlike the old school version of …
Steak ‘N Shake Fish Sandwich
I love the Fish Filet sandwich at McDonald’s but my waistline suffered the consequences. It doesn’t have any fresh vegetables and has three artery-clogging ingredients —“ cheese, fried fish, and tartar sauce. I wanted to see if there was a better fish sandwich out there that was …
Wadilal’s chocobars
Wadilal is the name of the company, which again produces the ice creams, and I am the fan of Chocobars from Wadilal. Hm�. It is just yummy and very very cool to eat it in hot hot summer. The chocolate layer coating outside is very thick …
Nescafe Taster’s Choice Hazelnut Instant Coffee
I really like flavored coffees when it’s not obvious they’re made with artificial flavors. I think some of these coffees do better than others in that department. Now, in the past, I have really enjoyed hazelnut coffee, so when I saw that Nescafe made a hazelnut version, I had …
Nestle Coffee Mate
The coffee creamer that everybody knows - it’s Nestle Coffee Mate.
Nestle Coffee Mate has been in the market for quite a while now. With its effective brand ad campaign using media advertisements, it outsells other labels of coffee creamer. And I must say that even without the media hype, …

I have tried yet another product of Nescafe called the Nescafe Ice. This is intended to be a cold coffee drink that coffee drinkers may also enjoy. I bought a box of the Nescafe ready to mix drink for about a dollar and a half in a box of …
Jiffy Pop Popcorn
The other day, I was watching an episode of Family Guy and saw the character Cleveland making Jiffy Pop popcorn. I said to my wife “that’s something we haven’t had in a while, let’s go buy some.”
After having it for the first time in years, I can honestly say …
Kinder Chocolate 4 bars
Kinder had always been my favourite chocolate I think that I actually really like the milk taste of it. That’s why I also adored Kinder eggs. My sister was crazy about the toys you would get in them while I was looking forward to the chocolate itself. You can …
Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls: Ham
I just recently wrote a review about another variety of the Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls. It was for sausage. It was horrid, and it really has turned me off of this product, even though I do like and trust the Jimmy Dean brand overall. Even though …
Clara Ole Thousand Island Dressing
I love eating fish because it does not have fats and it has health benefits. Salmon can prevent wrinkles and takes care of the heart like no other. But in cooking it, avoid deep frying any food. This would save you from absorbing oil in your system. I usually …
Jollibee Palabok and Chicken
Today I had an amazing meal at Jollibee. Not that I hated or loved their meals but it was just today that I truly enjoyed the Palabok and Chicken Meal I had with this local fast food chain. Well of course I have had this but it is today …
Stouffer’s Lasagna with meat and sauce
I have been eating Stouffer’s Lasagna for about 3 years and I really love this lasagna. Stouffer’s Lasagna is sold in small microwavable containers but they are also available in large oven trays. I love the fact that Stouffer’s Lasagna is sold in microwavable trays because they …
Breakstones Sour Cream Ranch Dip
I am not a big chip and dip eater, but I recently tried the new Breakstone’s Sour Cream Ranch Dip with some traditional potato chips and was really impressed with how good the dip tasted. The dips actually had creamy thickness to it and a light ranch flavor, but …
Dibs - Nestle Crunch, 140 Count bag
Back in the day, it was Bon Bons that reigned supreme in the ice cream bites department. Today Bon Bons has competition from Dreyer’s (also known as Edy’s) Dibs. Dibs come in three different varieties at the moment as well as different sizes. The variety I …
Diet Coke by The Coca-Cola Company
Coca-Cola or Pepsi? Marketing surveys have made this a well-known question. Since I have drunk Diet Coke from a time before I can remember, I choose Coca-Cola. My grandfather used to buy cases of regular Diet Coke and caffeine free Diet Coke and give them out to everyone who …
Chung’s Chicken Egg Rolls
I went to the grocery store yesterday to pick up some egg rolls to have with dinner. While there, I came across a new brand (or, at least one I hadn’t seen before) called Chung’s.
I normally avoid new products unless I can save a great deal of money on …

Hormel Italian Style Beef Roast
Quite honestly, I wasn’t sure what I was buying when I purchased Hormel Italian Style Beef Roast recently. I bought it because it’s a quick cook item from Hormel, a company I trust and from who I tend to like their products more often than not. Maybe …
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 …
Del Monte Pineapple Juice
I love drinking Del Monte pineapple juice not only because of its great taste but because of its high nutrition content.It is a great source of Vitamin C. I rely on it for my supplement of Vitamin C. Del Monte pineapple juice also cleanses our body from the …

I’m what you would call a loyal user of the brand of Betty Crocker. Usually I go for the cake mixes and hamburger helper kits but this time around I had the opportunity to their brand of Mac and cheese. I found it interesting that they would have a …
Del Monte Cut Green Beans
As I’ve indicated in other reviews, Del Monte is a trusted brand in my family. My parents purchased it, and I’ve continued to patronize it as well. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever gotten a bad product from them, so I have a lot of faith in …
Goya Cream White Chocolate
Goya is a local chocolate brand here in the Philippines. As a child it was one of the brands my mom gave me. I think it’s less popular to the kids of the new generation though. In its effort to reintroduce the brand they produced new variety to …
Champ-O-Rado by White King Chocolate Rice Porridge Mix

Mrs. Freshley’s Old Fashioned Brownie
Here is yet another brownie from Mrs. Freshley’s that I simply did not find all that remarkable or satisfying at all. Mrs. Freshley’s Old Fashioned Brownie is a little different from the other brownies made by the company, but I must stress the word “little”. I really do not …
Kroger Value Grape Jelly
Kroger Value Grape Jelly is not the richest grape jelly that I have ever spread across my toast or bagel before, however, it is a decent grape jelly that still nonetheless enhances my enjoyment of toast and bagels with its sweet grape flavor. I purchase it when it goes …
Toblerone (Green tea flavor)
Eating is one of my past time and eating chocolates is one of my favorite food to eat. Toblerone is one of my favorite chocolates of all time. Eversince I was a kid I would always request for my dad to send me Toblerones.
Before, I just knew dark chocolate, …
Michelina’s Swedish Meatballs
For some reason, I gambled on buying Michelina’s Swedish Meatballs the other day. The price is right for Michelina’s frozen foods, even though they are Weight Watchers, which I know I don’t like. The thing is that I had one really good one of these and so …
NU green tea
NU green tea is a bottled green tea available in my country. It is supposedly a healthy drink, full of benefits from the green tea itself. Although I don’t know how much benefits you could get from drinking a bottled green tea, as from my knowledge, any …
Luigi’s Real Italian Ice Lemon
Of all the varieties of Italian Ice put out by Luigi’s Italian Ice, the lemon-flavored Italian Ice is my favorite. Six cups come in a package and they’re all lemon-flavored for two dollars and fifty cents. This is my favorite way to experience the flavor of lemon: ice cold …
