L’oven Fresh Mini Muffins Blueberry
These mini muffins were okay, although they didn’t really satisfy me to the point where I wanted to rush out and purchase another package once they were all gone. There’s nothing really wrong with these mini muffins, they’re just pretty average, maybe slightly above average. Perhaps the best quality …
Stouffer’s Cheddar Potato Bake
Stouffer’s Cheddar Potato Bake is a pretty decent side dish, although it is by no means perfect. By that, I mean the diced potatoes come across as not tasting fresh. if you have ever tasted boxed potatoes, I think you will discover that this potato bake shares a little …
Strongbow England’s Dry Cider
I find it hard to imagine finding very many words to describe a drink, especially when it is not a high-end, famous wine or single-malt scotch, or something equally as unique or one-of-a-kind. I do enjoy beer, wine and cider, but I
have lately found a truly refreshing, uniquely-flavoured drink …
D’Italiano Thick Slice Bread
This enriched thick-sliced bread is so versatile I keep several loaves in my freezer at all times. Being low in fat and with no cholesterol, it is a good choice for diet conscious consumers, as well.
These extra thick slices are perfect for a hearty open-face sandwich, as a …
L’oven Fresh Hamburger Buns
Eight hamburger buns for just seventy-nine cents is a price and value that I can’t pass up. L’oven Fresh Hamburger Buns may not be the largest hamburger buns, but they fit my needs just fine. If I have a hamburger, I don’t mind if some of the hamburger meat …
Double Stuff Oreos

Hostess Fruit Pies - Cherry
Although I find these Hostess Fruit Pies - Cherry variety to be superior to the apple variety, I still feel that this variety is lacking in a delicious and memorable flavor that would keep me coming back. The crust is a big problem really - it is dry and …

P’Zone Pizza
I had a meeting last week and it lasted for a few hours. It was already 4:30 pm and everyone was really hungry. I, myself, was even starving and I can even hear my stomach almost shouting. Being the administrator, I decided to ask the receptionist to order a …
Culver’s Fried Chicken
Being a huge fan of fried chicken, I have ordered it in many different places, and I believe I can say that fried chicken served at Culver’s is very close to be the best of the best. It is always soft and juicy inside, while the outside is that …
Lean Cuisine Baked Chicken
I usually like Lean Cuisine meals, but this one was disgusting. I didn’t even finish it, and that’s really saying something for me! Lean Cuisine’s packaging describes this meal as “chicken tenderloins with cornbread stuffing & whipped potatoes.” There wasn’t one thing I liked about this meal, so let’s …
Selecta Coffee Crumble Ice Cream
Coffee Crumble is one of the premium flavors of Selecta Ice Cream. Given my taste for gourmet ice cream, I have tried almost all premium variety. Of all the flavors under premium label, this is one of my favorites. This ice cream is primarily composed of coffee and nuts.

Deer Park Spring Water
Deer Park brand spring water is a fine example of decent bottled water actually worth paying for. Although water doesn’t have a particular flavor, it can still taste bad. Deer Park water, however, has a refreshing lack of chemical taste. They claim it comes from real …
NuGo Free’s Gluten-Free Dark Chocolate Trail Mix Bar
Anyone with a lot of food sensitivities who’s trying to stay fit knows how difficult it can be trying to find protein bars or shakes that do not contain gluten, diary or soy as one of their main ingredients. I’m one of those people, so I’m always examining the …

Lucky Me Instant Pancit Canton

Why would I bother to cook pancit canton the regular way, when I can have almost the …
Hipp organic formula milk
I discovered hipp organic formular milk whislt shopping in the supermarket and what attracted me was the price. It was over £2 cheaper than the leading brand formular milk I was currently buying. So the first thing I looked at was the ingredients and nutritional information. I was amazed …
Snikiddy Baked Fries Original Flavor
I bought the Snikiddy Baked Fries Original Flavor online from Alice.com because we wanted to try something different as a salty snack alternative the potato chips. These little baked fries snacks are supposed to be better for you because the manufacturer says they are gluten and wheat free, …
Baileys Coffee Pods - Original and Mocha
So, a coffee pod company has teamed up with Baileys to produce a flavoured coffee pod that is compatible with Nespresso coffee machines. Nespresso compatible coffee pods with a hint of original Irish cream flavour sound delectable, but they are actually a little disappointing in my opinion. I made …
Gatorade Cool Blue Drink
I usually drink water, as it the most simple, calorie-free, thirst quenching drink out there.However, sometimes water does become boring, so I look for other good-tasting drinks out there.
One drink that I do enjoy drinkingnow and then is Gatorade, Cool Blue flavour.I must say that I like it for …
Liver Spread Spaghetti
I don’t like cooking much. As a matter of fact I don’t even know how to fry or how to cook rice (so much for my womanly duties). I always stay away from the kitchen but I do watch alot of cooking shows both local and international (I especially …
Ocean Spray Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
Back in December I was busy stocking up for the coming winter and one of the things I bought was cans of Ocean Spray Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce. As I don’t have a car, it can be tough getting out to the stores in the winter, as I never …
Calzones at the J
The “J” cafeteria at Humboldt State University serves calzones for lunch every tuesday. A calzone is like a small pizza without the sauce that is folded in half and closed, so it’s like a big home-made cheesey pizza pocket. The cost is $1.10 with a meal plan …
Sobe Lifewater
I’m sure by now that lots of people have tried the new Sobe Lifewater. It’s a flavored vitamin enhanced water beverage. I avoided it for a long time because everyone kept telling me that it was gross. I didn’t stop and ask them at the time if any of …
Mayfield Iced Tea
I’m the type of iced tea lover who’s extremely picky about the teas I drink. When in restaurants, I hate when the waitress refills my iced-tea glass without asking-completely disturbing my perfect tea/sugar ratio. With that being said, I discovered Mayfield’s Iced Tea in the gallon …
FairPrice Marie Biscuits
I bought a packet of FairPrice Marie Biscuits a few days ago. I decided to buy FairPrice Marie Biscuits because it was the cheapest brand of Marie biscuits on the shelf.
FairPrice Marie Biscuits is actually the house brand of FairPrice Supermarket. A packet cost of FairPrice Marie …
Bear Brand Sterilized Milk
Perhaps when one is asked what milk brand we are drinking, that will definitely be Nestle Fresh Milk Variants. I also have that in mind, but I’d say I settled for less - not in terms of quality but of cost. My boyfriend and I always drink Bear Brand …
Creamed Peas
Today for lunch, I had creamed peas as a side dish. The person who made it, showed me what to do. She said to take about a cup of milk, and heat it on the stove top, with a stick of butter. When the butter is …

Columbina Cappuccino Millows Marshmallows
I had never heard of the “Columbina Cappuccino Millows Marshmallows” until my brother got one of them for me after work as a treat. A single small pretty and white marshmallow with some brown swirls on it came in a small transparent bag, and I do not think that …
Marks & Spencer’s Cappuccino Chocolate Sponge Roll
For the past years, Marks & Spencer has been coming up with cakes and pastries that just seem to lure you when you look at their displays. I finally decided to try out the Cappuccino Chocolate Sponge Roll. It cost Php215 per box.

Chocolate Mint Scented Dry Erase Markers
Expo has started making dry erase markers with scents. I guess they figure it will appeal to kids more that way. Luckily for me I don’t buy things like that for my kids. When my children wine I just say too bad, I don’t believe in rewarding bad behavior …

Pokka Green Tea Jasmine
This is definitely one of my favorite drinks. I used to bought a whole carton of it and store them in my fridge but not anymore due to economical crisis.
Pokka’s tea drinks have also been 100% real brewed, so this is not an exceptional as well. Pokka green tea …
Michelina’s Gravy and Sausage Breakfast Snackers
This is a breakfast sandwich that didn’t agree with my stomach. The bits and pieces of sausage in the biscuit were gummy and tasted undercooked and as a result didn’t taste good. When I cook sausage patties on the stove, they certainly don’t come out tasting like this. For …
Haagen-Dazs Green Tea Ice Cream
I had never tried green tea ice cream prior to Haagen-Dazs’ variety. I had always been wary of it, because while I enjoy green tea, I was concerned that it wouldn’t have very much flavor or that its delicate flavor wouldn’t translate very well to a rich frozen dessert.
I …
Colacao
Colacao is not just any cocoa powder, but my favourite one. When adding Colacao to my morning milk, it makes it taste really wonderful, with a clearly defined cocoa taste.
The container hasn’t changed much since I was a kid, so it is very easy to identify. It doesn’t taste …
Jacobs Ice Coffee (instant)
I am lover of instant coffee. To be more precise, I like it strong, sweet - and preferably cool. And yet, I am not a great fan of iced coffee… with the exception of one single brand: Jacobs Ice Coffee.
I have noticed there are two “ice coffee” produced by Jacobs. …
Munchies Ultimate Cheddar Mix
Munchies Ultimate Cheddar Mix is easily a big improvement over the Munchies Traditional Mix and that is largely in part due to the addition of the cheddar flavor. Even though cheddar is not a cheese that I have a whole lot of love for, I do find it to …
Great Value Fruit Spins Cereal

Betty Crocker - Devil’s Chocolate Cake Mix
Betty Crocker - Devil’s Chocolate Cake Mix is not really the best Devil’s Food cake I have ever had, but I would say that for the amount of money I paid for it, it turned out to be worth it. The cake is most definitely moist and unquestionably airy, …
Whole Foods 365 Raw Agave Nectar
A few weeks ago while shopping at Whole Foods, there were some employees from a locally owned ice cream shop handing out samples. After talking to them, I found out that their ice cream is all natural and sweetened by agave. I had no idea what the …
