Walgreens Natural Almonds

Pastarrific Baked macaroni from 7 eleven

Krusteaz Key Lime Bar Mix
Krusteaz Key Lime Bar Mix produces bars that I am not too, too crazy about. I mean, the lime bars are alright, but I probably will not purchase these bars again for a good long while, if ever again. I will say though that there are some definite positives …

Lu Pim’s Jaffa cakes
I really like Jaffa cakes and I like them fresh soft and hydrated. Well maybe the word hydrated aren’t the best one but what I want to say is that sometimes these Jaffa cakes can be very dry and not very tasty. So I don’t like to experiment with …
Chick-fil-A Cafe Blend Coffee
The Cafe Blend Coffee served at Chick-fil-A comes in three flavors: Coffeehouse Light, Bistro Dark and Expressly Decaf.

Culver’s Cheeseburger Basket
It had been awhile since I had a burger at Culver’s, and I decided to do so today. I ordered the cheeseburger basket, which comes with a cheeseburger, medium drink, and fries. The nice thing about this basket is that the cheeseburger comes plain, and you can …

Chef’s Cupboard Family Size Chicken Noodle Soup

Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup
I find Buehler’s Gourmet Break ‘N Bake Cookie Dough Peanut Butter Cup cookies to be somewhat average in terms of flavor. For a dollar eighty-nine, they just aren’t quite worth the money. These peanut butter cookies are not all peanut butter, but rather, there are pockets of peanut butter. …
Cauldron Lincolnshire Veggie Sausages
Cauldron Lincolnshire Veggie Sausages are made with tofu and are much tastier than the Quorn vegetarian sausages in my opinion. I think what makes these —˜Lincolnshire’ sausages is the fact that they contain herbs which does make them really tasty. Also, I understand that Lincolnshire sausages are …

Ever since I was a kid, I always loved drinking Milo chocolate drink. I find its sweetness just right, unlike other brands that are too sweet or too bland. I prefer my Milo with milk, sometimes I enjoy it with sugar. I like to drink it hot early in …
Healthy Selection Bell Pepper Pate
I have always been a huge fan of pate, but due to the fat content and cost, I rarely buy it until I found Healthy Selection brand in Bell Pepper flavour. This pate is amazing especially for only $2 for a 150gram package at my local Meat Market.

Mascarpone Alte Cime
In my family everybody likes Tiramisu, well everybody except me, so they make it all the time. Unfortunately to make good Tiramisu you need a good Mascarpone and mascarpone is always really expensive, usually 200g costs some 4-5 euros depending on the brand of it.
About a year ago I …
Nescafe Decaf
Nescafe currently had a campaign to encourage people to drink coffee at night even before you head to bed for a good night slumber. The challenge though is to erase the preconceived notion that coffee, being rich in caffeine will keep you awake. Thus they manufactured a different mix, this …

V8 V-Fusion Peach Iced Tea
Of all the places I could have found this item, guess where I found it; the dollar store. I figured if it wasn’t great I only wasted a dollar so no harm no foul. I’m always still so surprised when I see great brand name items that obviously do …

Mama Cozzi Three Meat French Bread Pizza
Pizza in general is one those foods that is both comforting and a guilty pleasure all in one. It’s quick and easy to prepare, and everyone is capable of fixing their own plate which is what I like best about pizza–it’s self-serving.
I’m a huge fan of buying pizza from …

Dimes Premium Orange Juice
I have always liked drinking orange juice, especially in the morning. I prefer orange juice over all other types of juices. I think maybe I haven’t got enough when I was a kid. I don’t think that orange juices are only for kids though. It is really helpful in …
Post Banana Nut Crunch Cereal
I bought Banana Nut Crunch Cereal at the store because it was on sale. I love bananas and banana bread and eat cereal twice a day so this seemed perfect for me. I was disappointed in the cereal from the moment I opened the box. …
Cerelac Apple, Wheat and Milk

Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference Soft Cheese
As someone who finds Philadelphia soft cheese a bit too light and lacking in flavour, I really like this soft cheese from Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference range. According to the label, it is made with buttermilk, seasoned with Guerande sea salt and is intentionally —˜exceptionally rich’. …
Eckrich Hard Salami
I like Eckrich Hard Salami better than regular, I think it has a more distinct taste. This salami works great for sandwiches, or, each piece cut in four, fits nicely on crackers, making a good appetizer (secret tip: put just a little butter in between). I personally prefer using …
Edy’s Slow Churned Rich & Creamy Vanilla Yogurt Blends
