Jell-o Instant Pudding - Rice Pudding is a flavor variety that does not appeal to me too much. There is nothing wrong with the pudding itself though - it is just as smooth and creamy as the other pudding varieties, the flavor however is not quite for me. I …

Because I’ve had some success with Jennie-O products in the past, I decided to try their Turkey Parmesan meal which is prepared under the ‘So Easy’ moniker variety. I knew it would be a 50/50 shot as to whether or not I’d like it because while some foods …

Aunt Jemima Sausage Egg and Cheese on Griddlecake is modeled specifically after the McDonald’s Sausage, Egg and Cheese McGriddle, and that is the main reason I decided to give these griddlecakes a try. I love the McDonald’s breakfast sandwich - perhaps a tad too much considering how unhealthy it …

I wasn’t sure how much I was going to like Sobe Lifewater, because every merchandiser delcares they’ve invented the next best thing since sliced bread. But I have to say, it’s actually pretty good. There’s some good and bad with it, as there is with everything.
