Beechnut Table Time Arrowroot Cookies
Just recently I went to my grocery store to go pick up some items for my son. He’s about ten months old and eating stage 3 foods. Every once in awhile he will pick up an arrowroot cookie or piece of Zwieback toast to chew on. He only has …
Sam’s Choice Cranberry & Black Cherry Juice Cocktail
I was amazed at the variety of flavors of drinks Sam’s Choice offers on the base of cranberry. The first one I had tried was plain cranberry juice cocktail; it was good and refreshing, but it had quickly gotten old, with us drinking it almost every day. So I …
Red Apple Slice
Slice is a soft drink brand here and they recently released a new flavour called Red Apple. I was a bit intrigued when I saw it on the shelf and decided to pick up a bottle to try it. Hoping it might taste like a nice Apple Flavoured Wine …
Stouffer’s Precooked dinners
I often have no much time to cook or even go out to eat, so I’ ve tried a lot of pre-cooked products. Stouffer’s is by far the best. Seriously, no exaggeration! The best thing about them that I love is they do not taste like they are …
Tim Tams chocolate cookies
I first discovered Tim Tams from Youtube.com, believe it or not. One of the people I subscribe to is an Australian girl that puts together some very creative and funny videos, even if her topics tend to be very random. She kept talking about something called Tim Tams and …
Raley’s Fresh Deli Homestyle Meatloaf
For Christmas this year, we went an easier, more simplified route, prompted actually by trying to buy turkey a little too late in the week. Live and learn! Anyway, we ended up purchasing the ‘Homestyle Meatloaf’, a pre-packaged product under the ‘Fresh Deli’ label of Raley’s. The …
Libby’s Vienna Sausages
I like Libby’s Vienna Sausages, they are tasty and soft, an excellent choice for a quick snack. The tiny can of 6 small sausages costs under 50 cents. The sausages look like hotdogs cut in half. They are made of chicken, pork, and beef; very tender and moderately salty. …
Nestle milo
Nestle is a very good and old company which produces many kind of chocolates and other such milk products. And now I am going to share my experience about using the Nestle Milo health drink, which I used for my kids. I had heard a lot about …
Great Value: English Double Fork Split Muffins
The Great Value: English Double Fork Split Muffins are the cheapest English muffins that I am able to find in a grocery store. Compared to the name brand companies that make and sell English muffins, these are just as good and at a price that is significantly lower than …
Ziyad Brand Hummus Tahini
I love hummus, and I decided to try out a new store brand since it was on clearance: Ziyad Brand. I bought the one in the yellow can labeled “Ziyad Brand Hummus Tahini,” and I wasn’t expecting too much from clearance hummus in a can. I was pleasantly surprised.
What’s …
Great Value Pure Canola Oil
There are so many cooking oils out there that it really isn’t an easy thing picking out one. For that reason, I did some research on what is considered the “healthiest” oils to cook with and my research revealed that canola oil is generally considered to be about the …
Florida’s Natural Premium Apple Juice
This is one of the most mild juices that I’ve tasted from the Florida’s Natural Premium juice product line, which isn’t surprising really considering apples don’t have as much flavor as say oranges or grapefruits or cranberries or mangos. Even still though, I don’t mind mild drinks or food …
Annie Chun’s Thai Tom Yum Soup Bowl
As a fan of Annie Chun’s soup bowl products I recently saw a new soup called Thai Tom Yum Soup. I have to say that although it took me awhile tog et used to the smells in preparing it, the soup is yummy.
I followed the directions on the …
Kelloggs All Bran Cereal
We all have been told to “eat your bran” cereal, and just the sound of it makes you turn up your nose. I have been fortunate to actually try Kellogg’s All Bran cereal and it is not quite half bad, it actually grows on you, the more you …
Yogi Tea, Ginger and Hibiscus
I’m a big fan of Yogi Teas, and one of my ambitions is to try all of them! If you love tea, and you love a bit of spice, then you will love this brand. Their teas are at once relaxing, and have that bit of bite!
They’re …
Bounty candy bar
I grew to like Bounty chocolate bars during my visits to Europe. It is a British product, somewhat like Mounds: coconut-filled bars covered with chocolate. The packaging is different though, Bounty is usually sold as a snickers-sized bar, with two separate, smaller bars inside. Bounty is available with milk …
Argentina Corned Beef
I’ve first seen this Argentina Corned Beef in a TV commercial, and that made a big impression to me of the product. I first tried it with the small can they have in stores and started liking it. From then on, it became the brand I …
Kikoma naturally brewed soy sauce
I learned about this product when I got married because my husband who is paranoid about diets, is very persistent that I should not buy any ingredients that have MSG . I couldn’t find any soy sauce in store that time that doesn’t have MSG and because in …
New York Style - Spicy Three Peppers
New York Style - Spicy Three Peppers is a snack chip that is not as spicy as the name might suggest. Oh there is a definite bite to these chips and they do invoke a build-up of “heat” in one’s mouth, but I do not think that these chips …
Fiber One Bran Cereal
I wanted to write a review because the fiber one bran cereal has become one of my favorite cereals. I bought it because of the high fiber content. Almost all of us are not getting enough fiber so I though this would be a great addition with 14g per …
Fruit Pebbles cereal
Fruity Pebbles. They’re one of those things you never really think to say “Hey, there should definitely be a review on this”. However, that thought process only lasts up until your first bowl. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that Fruity Pebbles are the …
Healthy Choice Tortellini Primavera Parmesan

Witor’s Torroncino chocolate candy
Witor’s is an Italian company that makes chocolates and very good ones I must admit.
Torroncino chocolate candy made by Witor’s looks like this: it has a shape of a small dome, it has about 10g and it has 2 white strips of glaze on it. It looks very nice. …
Slimfit Tropical Fruit Powdered Drink
A lot of slimming products in the market are quite competing with one another with claims like ‘fastest fat burner’ or ‘contains 100% L-Carnitine’. However, my mom recommended Slimfit for me. It doesn’t sound popular in the market nowadays but I find it very effective.
I was having a hard …
Hidden valley Bacon and onion
Face it salad can be pretty boring, especially on nights that is all you are having. I recently purchased from my local retail grocery chain some Hidden Valley Salad Bacon and onion croutons. I absolutly loved them they were croutons mixed with bacon bits, and minced onion. The flavor …
Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Milk
Yesterday I did a review for Sunnyside Farms ice cream and in that review I mentioned I wouldn’t buy anymore of this store brand’s dairy products. On the same shopping trip, however, I had also bought this product, Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Milk. I did so because I …
Jell-O Strawberry Cheesecake Temptations

Rice-A-Roni Country Cheddar Rice
For as long I can remember, I’ve always been a fan of the Rice-A-Roni products. The rice is easy to prepare and comes in an array of flavors. I wanted to prepare a meal with pork-chops, and I thought it would be the perfect time to try out the …
The Co operative Apple and Blackberry Pie
My local Co-operative appears to have an in-store bakery although I know that not all of them do. I was trying to decide which dessert to buy when a lady in a hairnet came out from the back of the shop and put some still warm Apple and …
Cothas Coffee
I am a great lover of coffee. I drink coffee atleast twice a day. But I prefer filter coffee than instant. Infact I hate instant coffee. Though the process is quite lengthy for preparing filter coffee, I can still take pain to prepare it. Anyone would accept it once …
Best Choice Frozen Chopped Broccoli
Frozen chopped broccoli is a great addition to casseroles and main dishes. I have always bought name brand chopped broccoli, like Green Giant, but am feverishly trying to cut down on my grocery bill. I recently tried the generic version of chopped broccoli offered at our grocery …
Post Honey Bunches of Oats

Alpro plain yogurt alternative with almond
Hey there! I used to explain why I eat vegan products in every intro of my review, but that’s not gonna happen anymore. I’m just gonna say that I’m not a vegan, so I remember very well how the dairy tastes, meaning that I can give an objective assessment to …
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 …
Lipton Ice Tea
This is what I like to call the universal drink as I have never somebody who does not drink tea and it is very convenient when posing as a cold beverage as well.
I fell in love with Lipton Ice Tea from the first time I tasted it, particularly the …
Sainsbury’s Eric & Friends Fruit Gums
Sainsbury’s Eric & Friends Fruit Gums are basically kids’ sweets, but that doesn’t stop me from eating them sometimes! That goes double as they are really very inexpensive - a 75 gram pack costs just 39 pence, and the supermarket usually offers a “buy three for a pound” deal …
Coco-Choco chrispy cream yogurt
I took this yogurt because I actually think it was stracciatella one, you know those white vanilla ones with chocolate chips, just when I got home I realised it was made of coconuts and not stracciatella, it was a small disappointment I must admit but as I like coconuts, …
Lemon Basil
I just got the first flowers on my first Lemon Basil plant grown from seed. The scent is great, you can smell it when you water the plant, if you touch it, or if the wind catches it just right it makes the leaves rub together and releases the …

Chocolate Sunbars Health Food

Iceland Walnut Layer Cake
I have been checking out Iceland lately as I have found some good bargains there and they have a good selection of sweet foods. This walnut layer cake only cost me £1 and I thought it was of a very reasonable quality and I have really enjoyed it …
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 …
Great Value Angel Hair Pasta
My family goes through a lot of pasta; both because it’s cheap and because we actually enjoy pasta dishes.
Trying to save some money, I recently purchased Great Value brand angel hair pasta. When I did this, I figured all brands are pretty much the same and like the fact …
Arby’s
Aside from seafood my favorite food would have to be roast beef, and that is mainly one reason why I like eating at Arby’s. I can go there and expect to eat quality roast beef sandwiches for a very reasonable price. The horse radish sauce they include with the …
Nido Nestle powdered milk
I’ve always been a big fan of Nido Nestle instant full cream milk ever since I was a little kid. The reason why I love this milk of all the powdered milk out in the supermarket is because it taste like a real fresh cow’s milk and it …
Great Value Mandarin Oranges
Great Value Mandarin Oranges are sold in a 15 oz metal can that needs to be open with a can-opener (no convenient ring-opener attached to the lid). Segments of mandarin oranges come in light syrup; they are medium sweet, not very different from the taste of a fresh, ripe …
