Sunkist California Pistachios
I bought Sunkist California Pistachios when they were on sale, and still they were a bit expensive, almost $5 for a 14 oz plastic container. For some reason, pistachios are always more pricy than peanuts. Still, once in a while I treat myself to them. Sunkist pistachios are dry …
Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers
Wye Rivers Crabbers Crackers are one of those things that I saw and couldn’t believe it. I’ve seen potato chips with a similar flavor, but never crackers. They don’t look all that bad and they actually appear kind of cute, until you read the ingredients and the fine print. …
M&M’’s minis milk chocolate
M&M’s have been one my favourite milk chocolate in color coated candy form. I like it better over the original peanut version of this chocolate. Infact, the minis are small in size and looks very cute. Easy to attract my son when he becomes cranky with few of …
Red Lentils in general
I was a vegetarian for a good few years before I realised how valuable red lentils could be to me. Lentils somehow never sounded very nice and anyway I did not want to be a lentil-eating hippie like Neil from The Young Ones. The other thing that …
Inproba Ketjap Manis
If you want to cook certain food from Indonesia, you probably need sweet soy sauce in your ingredients. And if you are living in The Netherlands, you can find those ingredients like soy sauce so easily in the normal supermarket store.
one of the sweet soy sauce that you can …
30 Count Chocolate Bar Variety Pack
My biggest problem with this thirty count variety pack packaged and released by M & M Mars is that it’s very uneven in the different number of chocolate candy bars. By that, I mean, while there’s thirty Snickers bars, there’s only three 3 Musketeers. There’s eight Twix bars but …
Tesco Value 2 Garlic Baguettes
I am a big fan of Garlic breads and so as my daughter is. I make garlic bread at home using French bread but it is quite a hassle as there are so many brands of garlic breads available in stores at a reasonable price. I usually bought frozen …
Hungry Man Boneless Fried Chicken
Frozen dinners have come a long, long way. Just ten years ago, I wouldn’t go near a Swanson dinner, which had fallen behind the frozen food wars in my opinion. A year or so ago, though, I decided to try their Hungry Man Boneless Fried Chicken, and …
Nandos Hot Peri-Peri Flavoured Crisps
If you like your crisps with a lot of heat, then you will love these Nandos Hot Peri-Peri flavoured crisps. For me they are a little too hot and I would prefer the spicy flavour of Sensations Sweet Chilli or whatever they are called. But I think …
PurOliva Oil
It’s well known that Olive Oil is a better oil to use as it’s heart healthy but good extra virgin olive oil can be very expensive.
My sister had us over for a lovely italian meal and told me that she uses PurOliva.
I decided to give it a whirl.
It’s a …
Target’s Lunch Counter
While running errands one day, I stopped off at Target’s in-store Lunch Counter for a quick meal. I’ve eaten there in the past on occasion, but I hadn’t been there for several months. They used to serve French fries and a tasty chicken breast sandwich, but that is long …
Birdseye Steam Fresh Vegetables
My wife and I had leftover steaks last night and, since we didn’t have any sides leftover, decided to make some new ones.

In-N-Out Burger: Double-Double
Burgers are a staple in almost every American’s diet. We love them. In fact, burgers are one of the biggest items sold by fast food joints in America today. Not only that, but every chain has its own spin on the burgers, making them unique to …
Little Debbie Christmas Tree Brownies
There really is not a whole lot of difference between these Little Debbie Christmas Tree Brownies and the Little Debbie fudge brownies or the cosmic brownies. Yes, these brownies do have green food coloring to simulate the color of a Christmas tree and yes, there are colored candies to …
Jell-o Gelatin - Orange/Lemon-Lime
Jell-o Gelatin - Orange/Lemon-Lime is a totally scrumptious and quite rich treat to enjoy and I am very much satisfied with the taste of this delicious fruit gelatin. Both the orange and the lemon-lime flavors taste exactly as I thought they would and so the taste of these …
Smarties candies
I can actually remember a time when Smarties candies did not come in the color blue. I know that is probably saying a lot about how old I am but in the 1980’s and being a child who was a chocolate lover, I was well acquainted with Smarties. It …
Snow Crab Clusters
As long as I can remember, seafood has always been a part of my diet. I originally started eating–I think–blue crabs, but it wasn’t until I was in high school when I discovered my new love for snow crab clusters.
Snow crab clusters are mainly the legs from the snow …
Slim Jim: Tabasco-Flavored
I came across Tabasco-flavored Slim Jims in a gas station one day. I love Slim Jims and I always get one or two long sticks of original when I can. I had never tried their Tabasco-flavored model before, and I was actually looking forward to seeing how it tasted. …
Crosse & Blackwell Macaroni Cheese Pasta & Sauce
I think this macaroni cheese from Crosse & Blackwell is really tasty considering it is just a dried pasta and sauce mix in a sachet. It is really easy to make and can even be cooked in the microwave, as I have done. It was also really …
Pizza Mia from Pizza Hut
Apparently, there’s a lot of people that like Pizza Hut’s new Pizza Mia. I have not met any of them.
Pizza Mia is a wallet friendly pepperoni pizza from Pizza Hut. At $5 dollars each, you may think it’s hard to go wrong with one. That price is deceiving. It’s …
Zulka Morena Cane Sugar (Non-GMO)

Starbucks Holiday Gingerbread Loaf

Food Club American Cheese Singles
My daughter just woke up from her nap and, since she hasn’t eaten anything since breakfast (it’s now 2 in the afternoon), I went looking for something for her to eat.
She wasn’t really eating her lunch (she ate part of it but the cat kept distracting her), I decided …
Gowardhan Go Processed Cheese Wedges Plain
It was my first time to buy a processed cheese that was in wedge form so I did buy it for the purpose of putting it in my naan bread. I always do make chappati or flat breads in the morning as for our breakfast and putting cheese into …

Great Value Steamable Mixed Garden Medley
The Great Value canned vegetable melody offers more variety and at a great quantity, but this is good too. It’s a different kind of vegetable melody as it contains vegetables that the canned version doesn’t, like red peppers and roasted red potatoes. There are sweet peas, too. And that’s …
Cascadian Farms Organic Chocolate Chip Chewy Granola Bars
My most favorite organic granola bars to eat are the Cascadian Farms Organic Chocolate Chip Chewy Granola Bars. I like these granola bars because they are made from purely organic ingredients like brown rice syrup, vanilla, chocolate chips, rolled oats, cocoa butter, sunflower oil, soy, sea salt, cream, baking …
Coca-Cola Zero
I cannot drink full-sugar soft drinks, so I am always looking for new “diet” alternatives. I was excited to try Coca-Cola Zero. It has a good cola taste without being too sweet and syrup-like. I think it is more similar to regular Coca-Cola than it is …
Diet Cherry Seven-Up (7-Up)
I am NOT a fan of 7-Up. I will drink it on occasion when I’m sick because it’s easier on my stomach or I’ll use it as a mixer, but I get no pleasure from it as a drink. I just don’t find it refreshing.
But, over the …
Kernel Season’s Caramel Seasoning
Kernel Season’s Caramel Seasoning is sold in stores alongside the other varieties of popcorn seasoning. While there is no doubt in my mind that there are folks out there that enjoy sweetened popcorn, it’s simply not for me. The reason I purchased this seasoning was because I know that …
Diet Coke
I like diet soda, but I love diet coke it is by far the best tasting diet cola on the market in my opinion. I am not embarrassed to admit that I suck down a ton of diet coke every day. It is my vice, I am addicted to it, …
Buitoni Three Cheese Tortellini
I didn’t like this form of frozen pasta very much at all. First of all, it’s supposed to contain the flavors of three cheeses: Parmesan, Ricotta and Ramano. I tasted very little cheese whatsoever. In fact, had it not been for the sauce and the cheese that I myself …
Smart Ones - Chicken Enchiladas Suiza
The Smart Ones - Chicken Enchiladas Suiza is a good little lunch for the money. You can usually find it at Walmart where I live for under $2.00. I just ate one for lunch today, as a matter of fact.
Pros: This is a tasty lunch. …

Stoneyfield Farms YoBaby Yogurts

Weight Watchers Giant Fudge Bars
Truly, these delicious ice cream bars do not taste diet in any way. Many of the light ice cream bars I’ve tried before have an icy texture that makes it obvious that they ice cream bars have more ice and less cream. But these Weight Watchers Giant Fudge Bars …
Totino’s Crisp Crust Party Pizza
We eat a lot of pizza in my house and it can definitely become expensive fast. We decided to try Totino’s Crisp Crust Party Pizza as a low cost alternative and we weren’t disappointed .much.
The price is great. I buy these pizzas at my local Kroger for …
Hostess The Flash Cakes
There’s really nothing all that notable about Hostess The Flash Cakes. Although the cupcakes may look attractive, they’re basically nothing more than Hostess Cupcakes with food coloring added as well as sprinkles. For the most part, Hostess The Flash Cakes and Hostess Cupcakes taste exactly like, with the only …
Cheetos Twisted Puffs Cheese Flavored Snack
Cheetos has been my all time favorite snack. Twisted Puffs is kind of new to me though. I don’t know if it’s already old, but it’s just recently that I discovered it. It’s good but I still think that the original one tastes better. Cheetos Twisted Puffs looks and …
Benton’s Cookies Original Fudge Striped Shortbread Cookies
Who doesn’t like a cookie or two now and then? Perhaps even with nice cold glass of milk to dunk the cookies in? I’m sure there probably are some out there that would pass on either the cookies, the milk, or both, but in all likelihood, those that would …
Kraft Oreo Fun Stix
I have known Oreo as a plain cookie, suitable for kid’s but it did not stop me from enjoying it while I was starting college. In fact, this was still my favorite snack together with a cold chocolate drink. In the US, there are lots of variations on Oreo cookies. …

Lipton PureLeaf Green Tea all Natural

Arctic Zero Salted Caramel Fit Frozen Dessert
When I first came to America, first thing I noticed in the grocery store was the number of different types of reduced calorie foods. Also most of them used natural sugar substitutes, creating healthier versions of popular junk foods. Low calorie ice-cream seems to be the most popular choice and …
Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey Liqueur
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 …
Chick-fil-A Icedream
Icedream is simply the name that Chick-fil-A gives to its ice cream. It is indeed a dream though! The flavor of the vanilla ice cream is quite spectacular. The vanilla flavor is rich and the texture creamy - each lick is a real taste sensation! Although I cannot say …
