Lately I go nuts about instant coffee drinks, I really don’t know if that’s because I am just too lazy to prepair a real coffee because it is much easier to prepair an instant one or just because these instant coffees are always more delicious. Yesterday I went to …

I have always hated oatmeal or oats porridge as it is known more commonly here with a passion. However, despite the fact that I do, my parents have always bought Foska Oats every month for years ever since I was a little girl since they believe that its very …

I am not a huge fan of Weight Watchers pre-packaged foods, but these Double Fudge Cake’s are the exception to the rule. Recently this frozen pre-packaged box of 2 individual cakes was on sale for $1.99CDN at my local grocery store so I bought them.
These cakes are delicious! They …

I have been seeing this huge poster advertising Haagen Dazs’ new flavor, Dark Chocolate orange for quite a while already. The advertisement was effective as every time I looked at it, I felt tempted to buy it. It was a seductive picture of a man with his face …

My household is absolutely a Gatorade sponsor. First of all, I like buying it becuase it keeps my children hydrated, and secondly, it has substantially less sugar than juices, sodas, or powdered drink mixes. I have found that by simply adding water to Gatorade, it lasts much …

I am the first to admit that I am not the world’s greatest gardener, but usually I am able to grow pretty good tomatoes. The one exception is the beefsteak variety. Even the brand of beefsteak tomatoes seems to make little difference. The tomatoes plants do fine and even …

Pillsbury Grands Frozen Biscuits are delicious and quite large, too! I have three with my dinner once a week and boy do they ever add the meal! I alternate between these three varieties: Buttermilk, Butter Tastin’ and Flaky Layers. The Buttermilk Grands are so soft and flavorful, the Butter …

With summer drawing to a close I have been more and more convinced that over the next several months I should begin trying to lose weight for spring. I have read about several weight loss plans and I have narrowed it down to a few that I will …

Another Filipino Pastry is the “Pilipit”; Pilipit means Twisted. This pastry is usually sweet and is often expected to be hard; more than crunchy, you have got to have a good strong set of teeth to be able to enjoy this pastry. I missed eating this one, and have …

I use Great Value Cream of Mushroom Condensed Soup mostly for cooking, although it tastes good just as soup as well. Campbell’s is still my favorite though, there is a slight taste difference, and it is less lumpy. But when it comes to casseroles, chicken, and stroganoff, the Great …

Cadbury’s Fudge is only a little chocolate bar but as the advert says —˜just enough to give your kids a treat’. It is good for adults too and I like to buy a Fudge bar when I want a chocolate snack that is not too filling but just …

I stopped at my parents to borrow a couple things I needed for chili last night and, because they weren’t eating them and knew we would, they sent home part of a box of Eskimo Pies with me.
I got a chance to try them and I have to confess, …

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 …

I just love the taste of Hinano Tahiti Beer! I have to admit that I did not enjoy it the first time I was offered one and tried it because the person who gave it to me drinks his beer at room temperature - go figure! So, …

Coca Cola is not a drink that I consume regularly. However, I do drink some Cola …

When I first saw the Noel Dux Original Crackers snack one day, the first thing that came to my mind was a particular snack called “Club Social” that used to be popular when I was much younger in the nineties, because the packaging looked similar. However, it was only …

I went to the supermarket looking for great frozen food to cook for breakfast. I was looking around the Frozen Stuff Section when I saw a huge pack of cheesedog. These are hotdogs that are filled with cheese. I went on to look for a good brand of hotdog …

Although I am quite the fan of cinnamon, I really am not all that big of a fan of Mrs. Freshley’s Cinnamon Danish. The reason being is the cinnamon flavor is not quite as rich and delicious as I was hoping that it would be. I have had desserts …

This product is sold at Walmart Canada. The container is very big and transparent. I bought this for the children’s party that we had. This is a jelly-like fruit slices. It has various colors representing the flavor that it contains. It is sprinkled with white sugar. It is the typical …

I love cheesecake and I am always looking for a new creation to try, which is how I came across Lawler’s lemon blast cheesecake at my local Sam’s Club.

Breyers Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough is certainly an improvement over the chocolate chip variety, but not so much that I will be purchasing this ice cream on a regular basis. The chocolate chip cookie dough and chips are relatively plentiful and can be easily found throughout the ice cream. …

I am not so fond of coffee but I drink at least twice in the morning to keep me awake. I usually bought instant coffee so I can prepare it quickly. I used milk and sugar for my coffee and sometimes putting all these is such a hassle specially …

Quite unfortunately, there is nothing really all that supreme about Stouffer’s Italian-Style Supreme Stromboli. Two of the most disappointing aspects of this Stromboli are the sausage and the pepperoni. Now first, let me say that I can indeed taste both, however, the flavor of both the sausage and the …

Today I decided to wait until after all my classes ended so I could have lunch at the fast food restaurant Tastee’s. This is because I have found eating lunch there to be much less expensive than buying lunch at the university.
At first, I decided that I could buy …

I am a huge fan of popcorn and chocolate, and putting them together is perfection. Horribly bad for you, but perfection none the less.Fudge Drizzled Caramel Popcorn, the name alone makes you cringe when you think of the calories that must be in it. So imagine my surprise when …

I enjoyed Mrs. Freshley’s Berry Pie much more than the apple pie variety. The reason I enjoyed the blueberry variety more is quite simple really: the blueberry filling has a pretty delightful flavor! The filling reminds me of scrumptious blueberries, as it most certainly should. The pie tastes even …

Land O’ Lakes Cocoa Classics Hot Chocolate Supreme, for me, is the tastiest and most satisfying hot chocolate mix that I have come across in the grocery stores. In the dreary and cold winter months, this hot chocolate really does wonders for my spirits. The cocoa flavor is rich …

Good thing, this instant cup noodles of Nissin was introduced …

Tyson has some of the best chicken breasts on the market. They are always cut in to even pieces and each one is a fair portion. They even seem a little large to some but their chicken is low calorie and full of good vitamins. What makes them great …

I am not too familiar with Wensleydale cheese in particular, although I love trying different cheeses. In fact I eat cheese every day now I come to think about it. I love the taste but as a vegetarian, I always appreciate that cheese has a high protein …

I never really enjoyed eating “SPAM” products. This is because the first memory I have of a SPAM ready to cook canned goods was that the processed meat was so salty. It tasted so bad in my mouth that I practically have to eat a lot of bread with …

Pepsi is my choice of soft drink nowadays. I choose this over its closest competitor mainly because it is much cheaper but I get the same benefits. Plus, it’s not as acidic as it tastes compared to the other popular brand. To me, chilled soft drinks are the best …

Fit & Active Light Mayonnaise comes in a thirty-two ounce jar for one dollar and eighty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. Light mayonnaise is an option for those that enjoy the flavor of the condiment but dislike the fat and calories. I myself don’t think that this light …

What attracted me to try this sandwich was not the chicken, or the applewood-smoked bacon, or the smoked cheddar, or even Panera’s tomato basil loaf bread. It was the ancho chipotle spread, which is a creamy, spicy and smoky spread that’s supposed to meld the components of the …

Orville Redenbacher’s Poppycock Cashew Lovers Gourmet Popcorn comes in an eight point five ounce bag for three dollars and fifty cents. This snack item consists of popcorn and cashews. Oddly enough, although the cashews are mentioned specifically in the name of the product, the popcorn seems be far more …

When it comes to takeaways, sometimes the old student comes out in me. Let’s be honest, there are some that you would rarely use unless you had not been out of the town or had a few drinks at home first.
There is one in Bedford that does appeal to …

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 …

Jell-o Instant Pudding - Butterscotch is really quite incredible! The butterscotch flavor is very rich and scrumptious, as well as quite authentic, too! The flavor really seizes my taste buds and puts a real smile on my face because it just tastes so good. The pudding is quite creamy …
