I have always been a very comitted supporter of the Coca-cola company and all its products. From all it brought out in the past decades, Coke is largely known, obviously, and could with no doubt be the world’s number 1 softdrink. But eversince Pepsi made a turnaround (there was …

After trying Talenti’s Pistachio Gelato I knew that I was hooked on the brand and would try as many of their products as I could. One flavor that I recently tried was the Tahitian Vanilla Bean. I purchased the product at Kroger for $3.75 for a single pint …

This is a great cereal at a cheap price. It’s a generic brand that’s only sold at Aldi’s stores, and you can usually buy an 18 ounce box for slightly less than $2. The cereal is very similar to Sugar Smacks/Honey Smacks. This is one of …

Jell-o Pudding - Vanilla is not quite as good and delicious as the instant boxed pudding variety, although I still enjoyed my purchase of it. I still found the vanilla flavor to be relatively rich and tasty, and the texture of the pudding, creamy and smooth. The three pack …

The Embee is the brand name of the basmati rice. The quality of the Embee rice is very good. It comes in one-kilogram quantity and the rice is very cleaned and packed. The quality of the each rice is very fine and shiny. The Embee …

Although I would not call it my favourite kind of drink, I still like having a good peanut punch drink once in a while when I have a crave for it. I usually see a few cheap brands that make it, and a few of them do not taste …

There is nothing better than a nice hot pizza while enjoying some down time. Yer I have become so aware of my diet and know that pizza can be a no no when it comes to eating right and staying fit. It is really not that great for you …

Often while I’m out during the summer I get incredibly thirsty. Nor does it help any that the temperatures are hovering near ninety with high humidity. To top it off, I’m often walking on foot and that just makes me more parched than ever. I need a drink to …

The Co-operative’s own brand ‘Creamy Golden Vegetable Soup’ is my favourite soup at the moment. Although it is very cheap at only about 50 pence per can, I think it is lovely. I usually only buy tomato soup but I wanted to find something a bit more …

I wanted a lasagna dinner for supper on Friday but was on a tight budget. So, rather than buying a more expensive brand, I picked up another meat lasagna from On-Cor.
I have purchased this particular brand of lasagna in the past and have been happy with it. Not only …

I have been enjoying Stella Doro Breakfast Treats since I was a small child. My father is Italian and he loved Stella Doro Breakfast Treats that he love to dip into his coffee. These Italian hazelnut tasting cookies are comfort food to me. I love enjoying …

I’ve been aware of the Bumble Bee tuna line for quite some time: My first stab at the Bumble Bee tuna salad kit was when I was in elementary school. What makes the Bumble Bee tuna salad kit so good is that it has great portion control, and it …

I’ve been trying my hand at meals that are prepared without meat. One my favorite ways to carry on in with this trend is by eating lentils. They are a simple alternative, inexpensive and very healthy, and can also be prepared in a variety of ways. One day …

Healthy Ones is certified by the American Heart Association for meeting its standards for saturated fat …

The xiao long bao (Shanghai soup dumplings) is my favorite type of dimsum. During my recent trip to Shanghai, I was very excited to eat a lot of the dumplings. I tried different ones, but I have to say that the best one is from Din Tai …

Since I began working at Campbell Soup, I’ve been looking forward to the day when I would be given samples of some of the many food products they offer. That day finally arrived on Friday when I went to World Headquarters to finally get my security badge key card.
The …

I absolutely adore “So Delicious” Cultured Coconut Milk yogurt, and have been eating it nearly every day since I discovered it. As one who generally tries to avoid dairy products, this stuff is a real treat. Also, as a vegetarian, I have to be careful not to overdose on …

One day a while back I was shopping at Safeway and needed some bread. None of my usual brands were on sale, and money was so tight that I forced myself to look at other options, one of which was a lesser known brand called Oven Joy. …

What makes a candy or a treat so good that I just have to keep coming back for more? I always ask myself that question when I go to Walt Disney World and I always pick up at least five bags of the Goofy Candy Company Character Gummies.
I …

I think that the Kroger Value White Bread is a little better than the wheat bread that I also sometimes purchase with the Kroger logo on the packaging. The white bread is fairly light and fluffy and is ideal for toasting, for microwaving, for breakfast, for dinner and more. …

Recently, I purchased the Chips Ahoy - Big Pack as I call it. It’s a large box that contains four packages of 12-ounce packages of Chips Ahoy! cookies. I made the purchase at Sam’s Club. The reason for the buy was that not only do I …

I was constantly in search of a perfect rice for Risotto. I have seen Giada De Laurentiis made a yummy looking Risotto in Food Network Channel. I want to try it out but I’ve checked Walmart, Target, Kroger but I was not fortunate to find a good Arborio Rice. …

I found these Little Debbie 100 Calorie Yellow Cakes to be pretty average in flavor. If you have ever had a regular yellow cake before, you know that the flavor is inherently none too impressive, but it can make for a light and fluffy snack that does not spike …

My favorite healthy snack to snack on lately is the Ocean Spray Craisins Sweetened Dried Cranberries 100 Calorie Pack. They are sweet tart and delicious and I find them to be tasty on top of a salad and yogurt. They also go great with pork chop dinners with a …

Oatmeal for breakfast is probably one of the best things the mankind has ever invented. I don’t really like savoury breakfast foods and the oatmeal is my favourite thing to eat, and not just for breakfast. That alone makes chosing the best oats a very important thing for me. But …

I usually like to drink beverages from the Smirnoff Ice collection because they are more refreshing than drinking wine coolers. I will admit that their alcohol content doesn’t taste much stronger than the strongest brand of coolers I’ve had. In any case, I bought this flavor …

Ribena is a popular juice drink available in almost every grocery store and supermarkets here in Singapore. It is also a choice of drink for kids.
Apart from the tangy and sweet taste, the kind of flavor many will like, it is the added benefits of the brand’s claim …

Potato chips is that snack food that many people have happily enjoyed over the years. There are many versions and flavors to choose from out there, many different brands that we explore on a daily basis. One of the different brand of rippled potato chips I decided to try …

This ketchup really is the best ketchup in the world. Since I tasted this one I don’t buy any other because it is just not worth it. Less expensive brends are many cheper for 20-30 cents but the taste can’t be compared to Calve ketchup but the problem is …

Dorayaki is a popular japanese treat or snack. To a lot of westerns, they would simply describe it as two pancakes slapped together with red bean paste in the middle. Alternatively, it can also be lotus paste, which taste okay too but a bit sweet in my opinion. However, …

The other day I was shopping in our local freezer section and saw Bernatello Half Pounder frozen pizzas on sale 3 for $9.99. Because they sounded like a pizza that would offer a lot in terms of toppings and would be a filling dinner, I decided to give them …

I love frozen yogurt and I need my fix at least once a week. I went to a trip to Hong Kong and surprisingly, yogurt isn’t everywhere unlike in Manila. When I saw the Yo Mama shop in Windsor House, Causeway Bay, I of course tried it …

Quaker has always been that go to brand for as long as I could remember. They always have interesting products that appeal to all ages and people from all walks of life. In this case, when I was in the store, I noticed a product I hadn’t seen before. …

Eating Right is one of my favorite brands of frozen dinners for watching my weight. When I have a week of unhealthy eating habits, I will eat 3 of their meals a day over the weekend, and I usually feel much better and healthier. It is a …

I knew I might not like this frozen stuffed sandwich because of it being “lean”, but I was willing to give it a try for a dollar seventy-eight. Unfortunately, my concerns turned out to be justified as this stuffed sandwich just came across as being pretty bland to me …

The Aristocrat is a good restaurant that has been in the business for years. When I want to enjoy good quality barbecue, than this is the go-to place I automatically have in mind.
Their Chicken Barbecue with Rice meal is the bestseller of this restaurant. I remember even when I …

Lately I’ve been on a hunt for a perfect, smooth peanut butter for my toasts and snacks. Jif Peanut Butter is probably one of my favourites because of its relatively clean ingridients list and the low price. But even when I’m in love with a certain food, I don’t stop …

Natural yogurt is something that I really like but I don’t like them when they are too sour and acid. Yesterday I bought Yomo Natural White 0.1% fat. Well, natural yogurts usually don’t have a lot of calories so I really don’t see a reason to make a 0.1% …

A few months ago, my husband picked these Trader Joes Ice Cream Bonbons up for me because he knew I liked ice cream and chocolate. I thought it was a sweet idea, but didn’t think too much of it and just put them in the freezer for later.
Now …

Crush Soda: Grape, Strawberry and Orange
These are all great treats. The strawberry is my favorite but I love all three flavors. I am fairly certain that I have an addiction to these drinks ha ha. They are even good when they are not ice cold. I pack em in …

I find so many supposedly ‘instant’ dishes that can be found in the supermarket are not really instant at all. Some of them you have to fiddle around with cups of milk and spoonfuls of margarine, others take almost an hour in the oven or are just very messy. …

I buy these cookies nearly every week. They’re not only crispy delicious, they’re fun to eat too, as each one is really shaped like a butterfly.
I also love the box packaging, as what you see in the picture is what you get inside. The cookies are also …

When you make sauces, such as speghetti or any pasta type foods, do you find that it just is missing some zip? I mean it is just not ’special’? I make pasta all the time, and I make sure that I add salsa to it, for that special zippy …

I first tried Nestle’s Cream because I could not find any light cream (specifically) in the grocery stores at Christmas time! I think everyone must have bought it all up to make home made eggnog. I personally wanted to make home made eggnog too but had to pass it …

Although I found Mrs. Freshley’s Oatmeal Creme to be satisfactory and enjoyable, I do not expect to purchase the creme cookie a second time. The reason I will not be purchasing it a second time is because I can get oatmeal cookies at a better value from another company …

Sargento - Bistro Blends Shredded Italian Pasta Cheese is positively delicious! This cheese has a whole lot going for it and I love adding it to my lasagna and salads or just eating it right out of the bag. There is a combination of both herbs and cheeses mixed …

This is really the only juice product put out by the Florida’s Natural company that I didn’t care for very much. The reason I was somewhat disappointed with this fruit juice is because I simply couldn’t taste hardly any mango in the juice. It was almost like I was …

Istanbul Express is one of our favourite restaurant destinations in Hong Kong. They have a lot of authentic Turkish dishes such as Shawarma, Kebabs, Lamb, etc. However, I will just focus on one dish that they serve and this is my favourite: the Lamb Doner with rice meal.
This …

As someone without a lot of cash or liquid assets, my choices in booze are more limited than I would like. It would be nice if I could drink twelve year old scotch or microbrew every time I want to get drunk, but my budget won’t allow that. What …
