Whenever I spend any time in a new city, we immediately start sourcing ethnic markets and groceries because my husband cooks many styles of food; we are always needing exotic and non-traditional ingredients not readily found in traditional grocery stores. In Edmonton, Alberta, we found Italian, Asian and …

There’s nothing that remarkable about this salsa that I noticed. This salsa is like a lot of other salsas on the market and it doesn’t really do much that sets it apart from the other tomato-based salsas. It even comes up a little short in some regards. There are …

I bought a packet of FairPrice Marie Biscuits a few days ago. I decided to buy FairPrice Marie Biscuits because it was the cheapest brand of Marie biscuits on the shelf.

I find it hard to imagine finding very many words to describe a drink, especially when it is not a high-end, famous wine or single-malt scotch, or something equally as unique or one-of-a-kind. I do enjoy beer, wine and cider, but I
have lately found a truly refreshing, uniquely-flavoured drink …

I first bought this brand of banana chips thinking that it was actually the brand “Nices.” Thinking about it now,the company who makes “Extra Nice Banana Chips” has a pretty good marketing strategy since their packaging and name is very very similar to “Nices Banana Chips.” However, it is …

New York Style - Sea Salt Bagel Crisps make for a decent addition to a lunchtime meal. The bagel crisps are lightly salted with sea salt, and I find that the sea salt gives these bagel crisps a good flavor. I would not say that the flavor really amounts …

It’s quite fruity and I can’t put my finger …

It’s really something how it’s impossible to find a five cheese Texas Toast that actually comes out looking and tasting cheesy. No matter what brand I try, I’m always disappointed, but I keep searching because I enjoy cheese quite a lot and I’ve had four and five cheese pizzas …

I enjoyed Mrs. Freshley’s Berry Pie much more than the apple pie variety. The reason I enjoyed the blueberry variety more is quite simple really: the blueberry filling has a pretty delightful flavor! The filling reminds me of scrumptious blueberries, as it most certainly should. The pie tastes even …

L’oven Fresh Mini Cupcakes come twelve in a pack for two dollars. The mini cupcakes boast the colors of Halloween: black and orange. The sprinkles are black and crunchy, although contribute nothing in terms of flavor, but still are pleasant to eat because they add a degree of crunchiness …

Asia Specialties is a range of ethnic food products available at UK branches of the discount supermarket Aldi. The Thai Green Curry Sauce from this range costs 89p for a 350g jar and a Red variety is also available, but in my opinion is not quite as nice as …

Route 1 Candy Peanut Choklets come in a twelve point six ounce bag for one dollar and ninety-nine cent at ALDI Food Market stores. This is a candy that combines chocolate and peanuts, a combination that isn’t exactly new, but it doesn’t do it at all remarkably. While the …

Albertsons Polska Kielbasa sells for two dollars and seventy-nine cents. I like to buy this sausage every month or so because I enjoy the flavor of it and find that it goes really well with bell peppers and fried potatoes. This is something that’s only sold at Albertsons, but …

Every now and then in the local shop I find some Freska Vindija products on discount. I really like discounts and as I really like yogurts I can rarely resist a yogurt on a discount, especially if it looks as good as this one. I kind a got sick …

Quaker Oats now offers Q-Vital Cereal Drink. Cereal drinks were popularized by the Nestle Nesvita, and have made even more than one flavors that most health conscious people will love. I love cereal drinks and have thought that Q-Vital has the same taste as the Nesvita. Nesvita was sweet …

When it comes to salads, my choice of dressing is always ranch. I only had the opportunity to try French dressing when I was in fifth grade, and eating from the salad bar. I thought it was good when I was a kid, and wanted to take another shot …

When I was a child there was a chocolate bar that really won me over. As a fan of Snickers and Mars, this was almost like a combination of the two, but better. It was as though someone had been told that these two chocolate bars were the best …

Everybody likes cakes and all other deserts, but making them might be really time consuming and hard and we simply cant afford to do it (or in my case being just lazy in this occasion).
I had guests announced to come to over in the afternoon and I wanted to …

I have notice, that no matter …

One of my toughest challenges as a parent is getting my daughter to eat healthy. She’s not necessary opposed to eating something that isn’t sweet but does have issues with eating new things.
Since one of the things she won’t eat is fresh fruit, I’m glad I was able …

Product Description: Microwaveable popcorn that offers extra butter for those who love butter on their popcorn.
What I liked about this product: I have purchased quite a few brands of microwave popcorn that do not fill the bag when popping and leave more unpopped kernels at the bottom than popped. …

As I mentioned in another review, the Reese’s company (part of Hershey) had such success with their yummy peanut butter cups that they’ve begun to spread their wings quite a bit. One of the first variations of their famous candy treat that they came up with is Reese’s …

I tried to like Tofurky, but just could not do it. This product is revolutionary and really is a healthy option as well as being a vegetarian’s dream, but in my opinion, it stinks! We made tofurky and the entire family sat down to eat it and all I …

My gentleman friend were out for coffee a while back when we noticed that the British import store next to the coffee shop was open. So we went in to look around.
Everything you can imagine from the UK was in there, including scones, meat pies, Shepherd’s pies (frozen), …

I love this Alaska Yoghurt Drink. They are offered in different flavors and they really taste good. It brings a unique fruity and milky taste in one tetra pack. Indeed when I first tasted this I knew that even my little ones would love this. I’ve tasted different brands …

There is one thing that I can think of–off the top of my head–that I’m guilty of: Not learning to make brownies from scratch. Luckily for me, there’s Betty Crocker in the wing ready to help me out and impress my mom who know I can’t cook–I’m working on …

Coca-Cola Vanilla is a flavored carbonated beverage made by Coca-Cola. It tastes like regular Coca-Cola with vanilla flavoring added. This product is very good! The vanilla adds a hint of extra sweetness to soften the slight bitterness of the cola flavor and at the same time …

Classic Coca-Cola is a delicious and flavorful soft drink that is, at least in my case, addicting. Just having a can of this soda elevates my spirit and enhances my level of concentration - probably a result of the caffeine in the soda. Speaking of caffeine, that is just …

I’m a fan of black currant flavored teas, and also a bargain hunter. Last month the two met up in an unfortunate mistake. I was ordering my usual brand of black currant tea (Twinings) from an online retailer and I saw that there was another brand of black currant …

During hot or summer season, almost all of us do crave for something cold. And the number one food when it comes to that is the ice creams. Magnolia has its own product of ice creams and popsicles. As for me, my favorite is none other that Twin popsies. …

Lean Cuisine fills a niche in the American life. I cannot tell you if they sell it anywhere else because when I am abroad I don’t go looking for frozen food. You eat a Lean Cuisine usually because you are watching your weight and are either too …

When we looked in our cupboard to see what we needed, we discovered we had an Old El Paso Soft Taco Dinner Kit.
I have used dinner kits in …

Piattos is my favorite line of potato chips. The cheese-flavored variety in particular drives me nuts. It’s the godfather of all junk food.
The thin chips are really ideal in providing maximum cheesy flavor that explodes in my mouth. The rich flavor is exquisite, and I can’t really think …

A box of these cookies was given to me to try from someone who had obtained several of them.
I was excited.
The thought of Peanut Butter inside one of my favourite cookies was something that really appealed to me.
I love both peanut butter and who can resist an Oreo cookie?
I …
