Aunt Jemima Ham & Egg Scramble
Aunt Jemima Ham & Egg Scramble is a frozen breakfast meal that is both good and bad. How can it be both? Well, because the ham is fairly good, but the eggs are most certainly bad. The ham has a relatively good flavor to it, although admittedly it is …
Lemon Square Power Pops Cereal Snack Milk Flavor
I admit the first time I get to taste Power Pops I was enthusiastic about it because this is the first time I get to taste hard rice that is sweet. Power Pops is a crispy chewy cereal snack with real butter and milk. It contains 100% cereal goodness …
Bird’s Eye Voila: Beef Lo Mein
Bird’s Eye Voila beef lo mein is another quick dinner I wanted to give a try because whenever I’m in the mall, my first thought is: Where is the Chinese food? I always order the chicken, rice, and vegetables; I’ve never given beef lo mein a try until I …

A friend gave me a couple of coupons for Hot Pockets’ newest addition to the frozen food family: Chicken Bruschetta Panini Hot Pockets. I was at first excited to try this newfound fare. But shortly after heating it in the microwaveable tray, I was …
Bremer Select Italian Style Meatballs
Finding good frozen meatballs isn’t a task that is easily accomplished. Frozen meatballs simply don’t taste as good or come as solid as homemade meatballs. Making meatballs at home though requires time and time is not always something that I have in abundance. Thus, purchasing pre-made frozen meatballs for …
Teddy Grahams Cinnamon
These Teddy Grahams aren’t as tasty as the chocolate or chocolate chip flavors, but they’re better than the honey flavored Teddy Grahams. These Teddy Grahams have a cinnamon flavor to them that is pretty pleasant to taste, and also to the smell. There’s a week aroma of cinnamon that …

Edward’s key lime pie
Edward’s Key lime pie is the best I have had since I left Florida. Key lime pie has always been my favorite, but since leaving Florida I have had many bad experiences with places using limes, instead of key limes and there is a big difference. Edward’s is sold …
2007 St. Clements Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley
I’m not much of a white wine drinker because it’s often too sweet for me, so I asked the wine shop owner to recommend me a good, not-to-sweet white wine. He recommended this one, and I’m definitely a fan.
Although it doesn’t have the delicate notes of citrus or …
Berkley and Jensen Pistachios
Recently, a friend of my father’s came back from abroad and he brought a few gifts and treats for use back with him. One of those was a pack of “Berkley and Jensen Pistachios”.
Now I like pistachio nuts, but had never heard of the Brand Berkley and Jensen, …
Sterzing Vipitieno Vannila Yogurt
As I really like vanilla yogurt I can rarely resist to buy one, specially if on discount. Sterzing Vipitieno Vanilla Yogurt was on a 0.21 Euro which is really a great price. It isn’t easy to find such cheap yogurts these days, specially since the Crisis started and everybody …
Always Save Canned Kidney Beans
In recent months, my family and I have purchased off-brand versions of products in an effort to save money on our grocery bill. We now have our favorite generic brands that we trust to taste good and be a good value. However, one brand we do not like is …
Butterfinger Crisps
I don’t enjoy all sorts of chocolates, and I am the kind of person that would crave for anything except chocolates. Of all the chocolates introduced in the market, I have only loved Butterfinger and Reese’s because of the peanut butter taste. I was set out to buy a …
KFC’s New Grilled Chicken
After seeing the commercial for KFC’s new grilled chicken for the first time, I was intrigued. While I’ve always favored fried chicken over grilled, I’ve recently been trying to eat a little bit healthier to possibly shed a few pounds and get back into shape. However, I had heard …

Nabisco Oreos
I love Oreos and here in my country they have a multitude of package sizes starting from small packages that contain only four cookies in them (which are the ones I am writing about) to the large packages which contains about 3 rows of these delicious morsels.
I decided to …
Lee Kum Kee Chiu Chow Chili Oil
We were eating at a Chinese fast food when a chili sauce was served together with the siomai we ordered. My husband loves to eat spicy foods or dips that are very very spicy. I don’t even know how he swallows his food anymore. After eating, he went to …
Fast Fixin chicken breast nuggets
Fast Fixin chicken breast nuggets was put under promotional items in Albertsons and that was how I found about this. The pack was huge and for five dollars there was good value for money since there were good number o nuggets inside the pack. The packing was resealable which …
Wine Lover’s Chocolate
I love chocolate. Unfortunately my aging body could no longer accommodate the sugar and the fat that makes chocolate so sweet and seductive. So I’ve learned to ignore the 99 cent bars by simply telling myself that they are too sweet and are not luscious enough. It was …
Tesco Crusty White Sliced Split Tin Bread Loaf
I buy this bread especially for my morning toast as I have found it makes perfect toast. For 90 pence, you get a large sliced loaf with each slice being quite thick and sometimes I even pick this up from the ‘reduced price’ section in Tesco because even …
Wal-Mart Bag of Tilapia Fillets

Shasta Creme Soda
I went and bought a 12-pack of Shasta Creme Soda yesterday, pretty much on compulsion as I saw it in the store and thought, hey, I haven’t had creme soda for quite a while. As I brought it home I noticed my 12-pack was dripping; I opened it and …
Aji Ichiban’s Isoyaki Duck Tongue
As a present from Hong Kong, my aunt gave us a huge pack of Isoyaki Duck Tongue from the Aji Ichiban store. Each tongue came in a sealed wrapper. Although I consider myself to be quite adventurous when it comes to food, it was my first time …
Palermo’s Thin Crust Supreme Frozen Pizza
This is one of the most delicious frozen pizzas available. I have tried several brands of frozen pizza and found most to taste like cardboard; flat and flavorless. Palermo’s, however, has lots of tangy flavor without being spicy. Their flavor comes from the generous amount of toppings, not spice. …
Oreo Cookies
Am writing this and am eating one right now. Personally i don’t like my oreo with a milk. I like it just the way it is. Crunchy and overly sweet with its chocolate cookie and its fillings it has very high carbohydrates that is bad for those on a …
Progresso Light Santa Fe Style Chicken Soup
Guess what time it is again?
(Don’t break out in a sweat—¦I’m being rhetorical of course. Trust me, you’re good!)
It’s time to break out the old mythical lunch pail and thermos again to sample yet another lunchtime soup. (Can you tell I’m on a diet and working out again yet?) …
Quaker Fruit Oatmeal Very Berry Muffin
And so the kids are ready to go back to schools, feeling excited to see their new batch of classmates, wanting to brag about their new shoes, new uniforms, newly covered books and notebooks. But most importantly, they show-off their new lunch box and what’s inside it. Last school …
Blue Bunny Champ! Chocolate Lovers Ice Cream Cones
Although the Blue Bunny Champ! Chocolate Lovers Ice Cream Cones is not among my favorite variety of ice cream cone, I nonetheless enjoyed this chocolate treat to a limited extent. There is quite a lot of chocolate to be sampled by one’s taste buds: there is chocolate ice cream, …
Nature’s Own Light Honey Wheat Bread
I found this bread on sale at Publix a few months ago and bought it because I tend to use the lower calorie breads on my diet. Nature’s Own light breads all have only 40 calories and are high in fiber, a big plus for me. The slices looked to …
Pureen Baby Biscuits
My baby loves Pureen Baby Biscuits. Every time she sees me carrying the container of biscuits, she wails and I know she wants some.
Pureen Baby Biscuits are long and thin which makes it easy for babies to hold on to. My baby can’t eat herself yet, so I …
Dannon Activia Strawberry Cereal Yogurt
Now, I have said some distasteful things about Dannon Activia’a Strawberry flavored yogurt. And I still stand by what I said about the Strawberry flavored yogurt not being something that I would recommend. However, I would definitely recommend that if you have not tried Dannon Activia’s Strawberry and Cereal …
Lipton PureLeaf Green Tea all Natural
Lipton PureLeaf Green Tea all Natural appears to be new competition in the market for all natural refreshments, or at least I never noticed it before. In fact, I was a bit worried that I would not like it, but decided to give it a try anyways even …
Maruchan Yakisoba Noodles Roast Chicken flavor
If you are not familiar with Maruchan Yakisoba Noodle meals, they are basically a pasta based meal that does not require refrigeration and that can be prepared in the microwave. Yakisoba noodles are similar to ramen noodles.
I recently bought a number of the Maruchan Yakisoba Noodle meals when …
Haagen Dazs Dark Orange Chocolate ice cream
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 …
Julio’s Corn Tortilla Chips
Tired of the “traditional” tortilla chip brands and looking for something different?
I was. I mean, don’t get me wrong, Tostitios and Dorritos are fine, but everybody’s had those (in the US anyway.) I was looking to try someone more “craft” and local/regional to Texas and I found them—¦Julio’s family …
Reef Sandals With Bottle Opener
With perhaps the best addition to a sandal since the sole, Reef has now added beer bottle openers to the bottoms of their sandals. I have come to expect high quality from Reef sandals, which feel more like a shoe than a sandle. Typically, sandals start to feel like …
Roddenberry’s Northwoods: Butter-Maple Artificial Flavored Syrup
Roddenberry’s Northwoods: Butter-Maple Artificial Flavored Syrup is slightly better than the original syrup because this variety has a richer flavor to it, but still, it is not something that is worth the ridiculous price tag that comes attached to it. I can most definitely taste the butter flavoring that …
Dewberry Blueberries and Cream biscuits
I love to munch on some biscuits in the afternoon as my snack, so when I went to the grocery I was able to buy me a pack of Dewberry Blueberries and Cream biscuits! It has been a while since I was able to eat these biscuits so when …
Mentos mini strawberry
When I was younger I remember Mentos were very popular and if you bought one pack, although it was really big, if you took it in the class with you everybody would ask you to give them one so they’d be gone very soon. Lately I haven’t seen many …

Oatmeal has just gone to greater heights with this delicious new flavor that is sure to send a warm chill up your spine and fill your tummy with a deliciously tasty breakfast. Banana’s and Cream oatmeal from Quakers is satisfying, easy to make, and by no means tastes as …
Butlers Milk Chocolate Hazelnut Praline Bar
I am not a chocoholic but I really love chocolates. I have a “sweet tooth” they say. But as far as possible, I control myself not to have too much of it because I know excessive intake of chocolate won’t bring about good effects in our body. I am …
Caribou Coffee Peach Black Signature Iced Tea
I think the ripe fruity flavor of peaches is great when combined with rich black tea. I tried this tea at my local Caribou Coffee out of a desire to find out how well they would mix these flavors together.
I think really well-made, simple black tea is a wonderful …
Nescafe Coffee Instant
Nescafe is one of my favorite instant coffee product. I think I can find this coffee brand every where, not only in the country where I live. I do a lot of traveling. And I always find this Nescafe in the supermarket where I go.
Even surprising me, sometimes I …
