Pillsbury Gluten Free Thin Pizza Dough
I tried Pillsbury Gluten Free Thin Pizza Dough because I had a coupon for a free tub of it. I have to say that this product is very different from normal pizza dough. First off when I opened the package the dough was in one lump and …
Yoplait Blueberry Acai
Yoplait Blueberry Acai is a pretty tasty variety of yogurt and it is one of my favorite flavor varieties to reach for, right after the strawberry, banana and vanilla varieties. Every spoonful is loaded with a rich, blueberry flavor that is very authentic and most definitely reminds me of …
Mickey’s Malt Liquor
I think Mickey’s Malt Liquor has a great taste compared to other Malt Liquor’s. The beer is smooth and does not have a bad aftertaste. The bottle even looks cool. If you are just starting to drink Malt Liquor I would say this is the perfect 40oz to start …
NuNaturals NuStevia White Stevia Powder
This alternative sweetener is made with stevia, which is a calorie-free sugar substitute made from an herb native to Paraguay. It’s a white powder that looks similar to sugar but is up to 200 times sweeter, and sometimes has a licorice-like aftertaste. Because of this, less of it needs …
Gossner Foods: Premium Gosner Milk
I tried this milk one day when spotting it at my neighborhood dollar tree. I’d heard about this brand of milk from my mother who simply loves it. I never really understood her infatuation with this milk, especially since she usually buys soymilk. But as I always say, I …
Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge Cake
Every Sunday I have made it a ritual that after morning mass, I find a dessert from the super market that I can make from scratch. Last week, my boyfriend was with me and he spotted a dark chocolate fudge cake, that I must say looked absolutely delicious from …
So Delicious Coconut Milk
My son is lactose intolerant and has had problems with digestion since he was born. It has been a challenge to find a milk alternative that he can tolerate. We tried goat’s milk, soy milk and lactose-free milk all without much success. He did a little better on the …
Maxwell House Classic Roast Instant Coffee Granules
I used to think that Maxwell House instant coffee was generally of a reasonable standard but this particular instant coffee in their range is rather poor quality. I have to admit, this was incredibly cheap from a bargain supermarket I visited recently for only £1 for 100g and …
Shoppers Doughnuts
The shoppers near us has doughnuts that we can get. I believe they are 12 for about $5.00 or so. We can sometimes get them already in a box for about $3.00. You get to pick which ones you want. They are large doughnuts that you get.
They have …
Trident Tropical Twist Sugar Free Gum
Trident Tropical Twist sugar free gum is a favorite around my house. I love how the sticks are small and I can fit the whole pack comfortably in my purse without squishing the pack because it’s not too tiny. I do wish that the gum was not artificially flavored …
Freschetta Supreme Pizza
Product description: Frozen pizza that promises 10 toppings and a thick crust. We found it on sale for about $6 the other day but it normally sells for around $8 in most of our stores.
What I liked about this product: Not much (more on that in a second). But, …
Essential Every Day Grade A Clover Honey
I typically always buy farm fresh honey from my local farm because nothing beats the taste and nutrients it contains. However, this week I was unable to make it to the supermarket and decided to try the Essential Every Day Grade A Clover Honey. It is pure grade A …
Green Giant Fresh Valley Steamers
We made shredded pork sandwiches for dinner the other night and, to go with them, we decided to make a bag of Green Giant Fresh Valley Steamers vegetables.
The sandwiches were good. The vegetables were actually a bit of a disappointment.
Green Giant used to offer quality when it came to …
Scoopy’s Cake Cups
This product may be called Scoopy’s Cake Cups, but I refer to them as ice cream cones. That’s what they are to me. I honestly don’t know if this is the brand my family purchased often in years past because it’s been a very long time since …
Route 1 Candy Peanut Choklets
Route 1 Candy Peanut Choklets come in a twelve point six ounce bag for one dollar and ninety-nine cent at ALDI Food Market stores. This is a candy that combines chocolate and peanuts, a combination that isn’t exactly new, but it doesn’t do it at all remarkably. While the …

Stir Fry is one of my favorite main dishes. I have found a quick way to prepare one of my very favorites in a small amount of time. Contessa has come out with a frozen Beef stir fry. I prepared this meal in around ten minutes and it was …
Skippy Super Chunk Peanut Butter
Ah, my favourite peanut butter! Very tasty, healthy, and has been recognized as America’s Best-tasting natural Peanut butter. This top- rate peanut butter does contain a large amount of peanut chunks, but a very good ratio of peanut chunks to creamy spread.
My kids are very picky, but my whole family …
Mrs. Paul’s Crunchy Fish Sticks
I loved eating fish sticks when I was a kid. Recently I was feeling a little nostalgic, so I bought a box of store brand fish sticks from my local grocery store. That ended up being a big mistake, because the fish sticks were mostly breading, and …
Lay’s Classic Potato Chips
I confess to being a potato chip addict. I love to eat potato chips not only as a snack, but also as a side with sandwiches and hot dogs and such. I do not think that I have ever met a potato chip that I did not …
Milo Energy Drink
The Philippines is a tropical country. The weather here is very unpredictable. There are times that during summer, the rain falls heavily. There are also times that a when a typhoon hits the city, the sun shines brightly. That I can say is “only in the Philippines”.
One of …
Mrs. Fields Milk Chocolate Chip Cookies
As do many people, I find a lot of comfort and pleasure in having a sweet snack after dinner. Although I enjoy many different sweets, I have to admit, a good soft chocolate chip cookie warmed up in the microwave is the most decedent of all. Nothing …
Boost health drink
Boost is a very healthy, energy drink which can be mixed with the milk and sugar. The taste of this drink is very good. The Boost just tastes like the chocolate drink, so naturally it is the favorite for my kids. The boost has all the …

Kellogg’s Fiber Plus Chocolaty Chip Bars
Due to my digestive problems, I need to eat about 40 grams of fiber a day. It isn’t easy to find healthy sources of fiber because most healthy sources tend to be bland, not to mention unpalatable as well. Whenever I buy snacks, I always look at …
Wendy’s - Spicy Chicken Go Wrap
Wendy’s - Spicy Chicken Go Wrap is indeed spicy! This wrap is a bit too hot for my taste buds. Admittedly, I am not a big fan of hot and spicy foods, although I am not against trying a hot and spicy food if it sounds like it might …
UFC Banana Ketchup
I just love using UFC Banana Ketchup! Where else can you find banana ketchup in the world? Only in the Philippines, I guess which makes me lucky to be born here. UFC Banana Ketchup is great on my hit recipes like spaghetti. My sandwiches are surefire hits when blended …
Amport Foods Dried Blueberries
Almost addictive, these amazingly tiny dried blueberries pack tremendous flavor and are supposedly a fat free source of antioxidants. In a blue and clear 4 ounce plastic bag with a handy recloseable seal, they retain a little softness (not leathery like some dried fruits). They work well as a …
Marie Callender’s Turkey Breast with Stuffing
I’ve eaten other Marie Callender turkey products before, but they aren’t big favorites, though. In fact, I purchase them sparingly. It’s not because of taste, but because of one part of the meals that I don’t like — the gravy. This specific item, Marie Callender’s Turkey …
Chowking Halo-halo
One of the best halo-halo I’ve ever eaten is the one by Chowking. First of all, halo-halo is one of the most popular Filipino refreshments and Chowking is one of the most popular food chains in the country. Among the main ingredients of the halo-halo are crushed ice, milk …
Nantucket Nectars Half & Half Lemonade & Iced Tea
I have been drinking this Half & Half for some time now, because I like the Nantucket Nectars company. I also drink their lemonade, which I enjoy very much. But sometimes I like a change from a strictly citrus drink, so I switch to this Half & Half drink. …

Amazing Cones’ Flaming Fajita Pizza Cone
Just when I least expected it, I came across a new type of pizza. It was Amazing Cones. Amazing Cones is a restaurant that serves pizza, dessert and ice cream. The best part is that Amazing Cones is named as such because the pizza is rolled in a cone. …
Cedarlane Burrito Grande with Chili Verde Sauce
Cedarlane Burrito Grande with Chili Verde Sauce is a pretty delectable dish with the exception of the sauce. I do not like the sauce that coats the top layer of this burrito. I actually do not have a clue just what the sauce is or it consists of, but …
Nathan’s Hot Dogs
You can google the history of Nathan’s Coney Island Hot Dogs for their interesting history (the proprietor hired homeless guys to wear doctors’ uniforms and stand around his Coney Island hot dog stand to eat these things, so that customers’ inhibitions would be overcome regarding this new product of …

Voice combo sandwich is a snack cracker. It is a cracker with rich chocolate filling and a wafer inside it. I first bought it because I was really curious how it would taste. I really like wafer but I am not a fan of crackers. I thought then that …
Jacobs Ice coffee
If you ask me there’s nothing better than an ice coffee drink, specially if it is from a bag and instant one because that means that it is quite easy to prepare it. I started drinking these instant coffee drinks about a month ago when I got one gratis …

Blue Bunny Banana Pops
Blue Bunny Banana Pops ended up being a not so wonderful treat for me. I enjoy banana-flavored foods and treats, but unfortunately, these Popsicles did not possess the rich and delicious banana flavor that I was quite hoping for. Although these Popsicles were not completely devoid of banana flavor, …

Elvan Maestro Hazelnut Chocolate Bar
Elvan chocolate is new to my taste buds. It is a compound chocolate with Hazelnut Cream. It is an Arabian chocolate and I have nothing against the manufacturer but I can really say that Hershey’s are far better based on my previous review.
To start with, Elvan chocolate is composed …
