Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar
I first tried these chips a few years ago because they are healthier for you than any other chip because they are made of whole grain, which I found to be very interesting. And also because they sounded like they would taste really good. I also tried …
Waitrose Chocolate Surprise
I love sweets and chocolates. I have a major sweet tooth and whenever I see new types of confections or treats I most of the time have to try it, if not right away then i must come back at a later date and purchase one of the products. …
Philippine Dried Mango
I was never really big on dried food–and still not to be honest–until I had the opportunity to try the Philippine dried mango. I found it on a trip to super Wal-Mart which turned out to be an impulsive buy. I don’t like dried fruit, but I like mango.
The …

Hamburger Helper Italian Shells
As much as I like Hamburger Helper for the convenience, I do have to wonder about the quality of some of their products. The flavor I had today, Italian Shells, illustrates this perfectly.
The Italian Shells themselves didn’t taste too bad. They were a bit salty but I can live …
Fritos
Fritos are the original corn chips, just like it says on all of their bright yellow and red packages. They’ve been a staple in our home for decades. Though they have different varieties and sizes now, I stick with the original size and scoop most of the …
Cafe Breton’s Strawberry Short Dessert Crepe
Today I just made a review about the gourmet crepe that I loved. I will continue it with another good dish from the same restaurant café Breton. Café Breton serves both gourmet and dessert crepes so I was lucky enough to try one of each type. For the dessert …
Valutime Imitation Shredded Cheese
I was in the need for shredded cheese last night because we were having chili and my wife likes having that in the chili (I could always take it or leave it). Unfortunately for me, I only had a little bit of money with me at the time and …

Edy’s Mango Ice Cream
Edy’s mango ice cream is a recent discovery I made while on one of many excursions to super Wal-Mart. I had previously been accustomed to another brand of ice cream, but I figured since that brand no longer made their mango ice cream I would try Edy’s.
The mango ice …
Munchies Traditional Mix

Guinness Draught Beer
You’ve probably seen the shirt’s, you’ve probably seen the commercials on TV, you may have even heard the interesting story about the brewery itself, but not many people have actually tried Guinness Draught Beer. My first impression of it was that it was not very good, it sort of …

Kraft Miracle Whip Sandwich Spread
Who doesn’t like mayonnaise? I’ve grown to like mayonnaise because of its versatility. But having a plain mayonnaise, at some point, brings about dullness.

Argentina Corned Beef
I’m not really a fan of corned beef, but I decided to buy one to have something to eat at home that’s easy to cook. It’s also good to have something that doesn’t easily spoil even if it’s not refrigerated. Out of all the local brands of corned beef …
Tortica Kras Chocolate coated wafer with orange
I never buy this type of snacks because I prefer healthier ones like muesli bars and things like that.

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
What can I say about Reese’s peanut butter cups? They are simply the best. I think they are the candy that started the chocolate/peanut butter craze. I don’t recall seeing that combination before Reese’s came on the market. Since then, I have seen the chocolate and peanut butter combination …

Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Snow Puffs
Little Debbie 100 Calorie Snacks Snow Puffs quite unfortunately suffer from the same problems that a majority of low fat or fat free products do: a considerable reduction in flavor and a significant increase in overall blandness. These soft snow puffs almost taste like nothing really as both the …

Taco Bell Volcano Taco
I like spicy food, crunchy tacos, and nacho cheese, so I thought I would like Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco for sure. Unfortunately, I was wrong. The Volcano Taco was very disappointing, and I’m glad I had the rest of their box meal to fall back on.
I found the …

New Blended Frosty’s at Wendy’s
Every now and then, I get a craving for chocolate and ice cream, and Wendy’s frostys are a refreshing solution. Recently they’ve been advertising their new blended frostys, supposedly more like milk shakes.
