Lipton Green Tea With Mandarin Orange (Pyramid teas)
I got a free sample of Lipton’s Green tea with Mandarin Orange (Pyramid teas) the other day and was eager to try it out. Turned out to be a big disappointment.
I loved the smell of the tea bag. Very fruity. But, the taste of the …
Our Family Cola
We had a small get together at our house a couple weeks ago and, as is usually the case whenever we invite a lot of people over (mainly because nobody ever seems to show up), we ended up with a ton of food and beverages left over.
One of the …
Arrowhead Mills Organic Corn Grits
I am a big fan of polenta and I often buy it already prepared. It wasn’t until I came across a recipe for homemade polenta for the pressure cooker that I found out how easy and how much better homemade could be. The recipe I had called for corn …
Hill Country Fare Pepperoni Pizza Quick Pouches
I am a fan of Hot Pockets. Easy to cook, easy to eat, and tasty to boot they are a great snack (or even meal if you’re in a rush, which I often am). However, I am always on the lookout for cheaper alternatives, which is why …
Snickers Ice Cream Bar
Snickers Ice Cream Bar is a perfect combination of soft, creamy ice cream, milk chocolate, some caramel, and just enough peanuts. Snickers ice cream bars are sold individually and also in a box, with 6 and 12 bars inside. The advantages of this product are the great taste and …
Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake
For me, Jell-o Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake is a real seasonal treat! While I’m not a fan of every single Jell-o product on the shelf, as I’ve found the line of products to be hit or miss at times, wondering how the flavor on the packaging could be …
General Mills Cinnamon Burst Cheerios
While the General Mills Cinnamon Burst Cheerios cereal may be bursting with cinnamon flavor, the box that the cereal comes in certainly isn’t bursting with cereal. Ten ounces of this cereal will cost an individual around two dollars and fifty cents, depending on where the cereal is purchased. That’s …
Body Mint Breath and Body Freshening Tablet
I love this product. I wish it’s available everywhere or at least the manufacturing company has distributors worldwide especially in the tropical countries like the Philippines. I got it last year from my relatives in the states and well it’s kinda expensive unless you are a dealer yourself you …
BayMist Cranberry Raspberry Juice Cocktail
I have enjoyed BayMist Cranberry Raspberry Juice Cocktail for some eight months (bought at a Sav-A-Lot store in Tucson at under two Dollars) especially for its pleasant raspberry flavor, even when diluted one part juice with two parts water. A 64 oz. bottle bought on May 10, 2007 - …
Coffee bite chocolates
The Coffee bite is the name of the chocolate, which is also very different in taste unlike any other normal chocolates. Actually the coffee bite chocolate gives the real taste of the coffee. Those who love the have the coffee all the time, for such people the …
Lean Cuisine Four Cheese Cannelloni
I eat Lean Cuisines for one reason if I am honest, I am lazy. I try to keep my weight down and I do not feel like making a meal just for myself so if I am alone for the night I heat whatever I pull out of …
Red Mango’s Blueberry-Flavored Yogurt
Recently, I was able to try Red Mango’s newest flavor offering, blueberry, which they are serving for a limited time as their Valentine offering. I love yogurt and love natural and fresh tasting flavors. I hate anything tasting artificial. I also do not like frozen yogurts …
Solen Triplex
This wafer with milk and Cocoa cream and Hazelnut ingredients was kind a calling me from the shelf so I had to buy it. When I was smaller my father used to buy me a similar product which I really adored but I can’t find it anywhere any more …
Little Debbie Cinnamon French Toast Sweet Rolls
Little Debbie Cinnamon French Toast Sweet Rolls are indeed sweet, but I just do not taste all that much cinnamon. I admittedly do taste a little, but apparently, the makers of these sweet rolls were very skimpy with the cinnamon. It is a real shame, too, because I think …
Innes & Gunn Beer
Once in a while, something different comes on the market and makes a bit of a splash. I suppose you could think of Google in the respect. It outshone the competition in a big way and none have ever quite come up to scratch ever since. Perhaps Champagne is …
The food doctor
The food doctor is an essential seed and nutritious seeds which consist of natural seeds like the sunflower seeds, pumpkin, dried soya beans and pine nuts which are all mix together in one plastic bottle which is known to be a healthy alternative snack food. I usually get …
Lipton Instant Tea
My familiy has always enjoyed iced tea. when I was younger during the summer time we would make sun tea, you would put around ten tea bags into a jug and set it outside and let the sun warm the water and brew the tea. My mom …
Gatorade Fierce Grape
Gatorade Fierce Grape is a drink mix that helps rehydrate you when you work out. It is used mostly by athletes because it helps replace the electrolytes your body needs when you work out. My favorite flavor is grape but it comes in a variety of other flavors. You …
Ronzoni Garden Delight Fettuccine
I picked up this pasta when there was a sale on Ronzoni pasta, thinking it was part of the promotion; it was not, and it was at least twice as expensive as the other pastas. While the taste was fine and the added veggies were a nice bonus, I …
3Musketeers Chocolate Bar
I am so puzzled how many people could love this bar so much! There’s nothing really into it. I have tasted so many chocolate bars, and the 3Musketters is just one of the less than ordinary ones I have ever tried. It is not anything you would go crazy …
Paulo’s Raspberry Cheesecake Gelato
Gelato is an Italian version of ice cream that is widely know to be more rich and more creamy than regular ice cream. Well the first gelato I ever tasted came from Paulo’s Gelato. The flavour I opted to try was their Raspberry Cheesecake Gelato.
When I first ordered my …
TGI Fridays snack chips
Have you ever tried TGI Friday’s potato skin chips? Well let me tell you they are as delicious as all other TGI Friday snack chips! My family normally sticks to the Quesadilla chips, and we go crazy over them. A small bag simply will not do, we normally buy …
Blueraspberry Flavored Twizzlers
After trying the Blue Raspberry flavored Twizzlers, I am not really sure what I feel about the product, and though I really don’t have a problem with them, I wouldn’t recommend it only because it has that “iffy” quality to it. Where I don’t feel that it something worth …
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 …
Domino’s new hand tossed pizza
After receiving some less than stellar reviews, Domino’s decided to celebrate it’s anniversary by revamping their hand tossed pizza.
I had a chance to try it out while pet sitting for my family and it is quite good. I didn’t really have a problem with the original …
Nestle Flavored Waters
It has been said that by the time one is thirsty, a state of dehydration already exists in the body. As a result, I am constantly trying to remember myself to drink constantly throughout the day. Because I generally enjoy most diet beverages or waters, I picked …
Altoids Dark Chocolate Dipped Mints
Altoids Dark Chocolate Dipped Mints put a tantalizing taste in your mouth. They taste very similar to Andies Chocolate Mints, which I love. I love the New Altoids Darke Chocolate Dipped Mints. The box fits perfectly in your purse or pocket even.
…
Tesco Finest New Zealand Clover honey
Finest New Zealand Clover honey is one of my favorite sandwich spread and there are times in which I usually use it over on top of my toasted bread with a little bit of butter on it and I have to admit that this honey is the best honey …
Sharwood’s Tandoori Mukhani for Butter Chicken
I was discussing how much I love the Indian dish of Butter Chicken, and a friend, who loves to cook, told me about a sauce that is available which allows you to simply cook chicken in it and voila! You can cook a difficult and time-consuming recipe quickly, in …
Mars Planets Chocolate Balls (New)
Chocolates from Mars are not new, but the latest is the Mars Planets Chocolate Balls. I can’t get enough of this crunching tasting chocolate. But got to limit though, as I am on a diet regime.
If you are looking for a diet chocolate, this is not your …
Jell-o Gelatin - Lime
Jell-o Gelatin - Lime variety is a flavor that I like to have every now and then. The company did a pretty impressive job taking the lime flavor and injecting it into this gelatin! The lime flavor is quite authentic and real, and the flavoring does not at all …
Marie Callenders Blueberry Muffin Mix
I was craving something sweet one evening and went in search of something to satisfy my ever so growing sweet tooth. In one of my kitchen containers I had a packet of Marie Callenders Blue Berry Muffin mix, neatly tucked away for occasions like this. For sixty cents …
Aristocrat Boneless Chicken Barbecue with Rice
The Aristocrat is a good restaurant that has been in the business for years. When I want to enjoy good quality barbecue, than this is the go-to place I automatically have in mind.
Their Chicken Barbecue with Rice meal is the bestseller of this restaurant. I remember even when I …
Knorr Real Chinese Soup
There are actually two variants of Knorr soup, the cream soups and the real Chinese soups. Between the two, I prefer the real Chinese soups even though they are a bit expensive. But still both tastes good.Since we love soups and we use them as side …
McDonald’s Angus Snack Wrap - Bacon and Cheese
On a spontaneous whim today, I decided to drop by McDonald’s, which I almost never do, and try one of their Angus Snack Wraps. There were three versions available and the one I went with was the Bacon and Cheese. It looked good and sounded tasty.
This product …
Dentyne Mint Medley Gum
Dentyne Mint Medley gum was something that I bought on clearance Dentyne Mint Medley gum was something that I bought on clearance at target. It was pretty cheap, and so I thought that I would give it a tr. I’m glad that I only …
Organic Soy Dream Lil’ Dreamers
Organic Soy Dream Lil’ Dreamers turned out to be positively terrible! These were just about the worst ice cream sandwiches that I have ever tried. What made them so bad, exactly? Quite simply, the flavor was horrid! Whether it was the vanilla ice cream or the chocolate cookies that …
Healthy Kitchen Experience
I was curious how vegan restaurants started to sprout all across the Metro. I found Healthy Kitchen because their Boca burger is included in the 10 “Must-Try” veggie burgers in Manila and was hailed by PETA as the best tasting veggie burger in their Golden Buns Awards. Sounds interesting …
Aquafina Bottled Water
As someone who is very particular about what kind of water I put into my body, I didn’t find Aquafina very impressive. It’s a cheaper brand, so I suppose you will get what you pay for (and maybe even a little less), but I still must say that I …
Rice A Roni
No matter how hard I try to make my own version of Rice a Roni, it never works! My rice always turns out undercook and never has the flavor that I aime for.
Rice A Roni is an easy alternitive to homemade rich. It has many great flavors …
Market Pantry Party Mix Zesty
The Market Pantry Party Mix Zesty is a nut mix that’s sold only at Target stores as it’s a Target brand product. It comes in a forty-eight ounce container that retails for just under four dollars. I only bought this mix once, but I was pretty satisfied with its …
Private Selection Penne Rigate
Most of the time I buy rice pasta but it is not as easy to come by. I have to drive all the way to my closest Trader Joe’s, which isn’t too close or I have to pay too much for some online. Since I don’t have celiac disease …
Jell-o Gelatin - Strawberry
Jell-o Gelatin - Strawberry is a quite tasty treat that never fails to excite my taste buds in a real sensational way! The strawberry flavor is quite authentic and rich, and refreshing in flavor, too! These are all very impressive attributes and make up the reasons why I enjoy …
Hershey’s Dark Chocolate Sundae
Recently I went to Mini Stop a famous convenience store here in the Philippines because I wanted to buy some beverages and cellphone load. After doing so, I saw the sign that they are selling Hershey’s Dark Chocolate Sundae for only 15 pesos which in dollars is just $0.31 …
Doritos Spicy Sweet Chili Chips
I am a lover of chips, all kinds of chips and especially these Doritos Spicy Sweet Chili chips. I purchased a bag of them from my local grocers when they were on sale at 2 for $6. Normally they run $4.99 each so the reduced price was a plus. …
Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers
Stouffer’s Stuffed Peppers are pretty good, although I do wish that the actual peppers were crispier and crunchier as opposed to be somewhat on the soft and soggy side. Oh well, one can only expect so much from frozen meals, I suppose. The green peppers do have a pretty …
Steamed Fish with Gai Lan
I love a particular dish that is called Steamed Fish with Gai Lan. Gai Lan is a form of vegetable and it is actually a Chinese Broccoli. I love a healthy diet each time and considering Steamed Fish with Gai Lan plus a rice bowl will be included …
Tofutti Ice Cream
At one time in my life I dated a vegan. He, of course, did not consume any dairy products. That took a lot out of dating…like getting ice cream together on those summer nights! He did, however, introduce me to Tofutti ice cream. It’s actually a dairy-free frozen …
Tesco Value Roasted Salted Peanuts
I really like peanuts as a savoury snack, and have done for a number of years now. They’re less messy than eating a pastry product such as a sausage roll, they don’t melt as many sweet snacks (such as chocolate bars) do and they’re very convenient to carry around. …
Jarrow Formulas Organic Coconut Oil
A few months ago I bought some Jarrow Formulas Organic Coconut Oil and oh man does this stuff have so many purposes. I use it for cooking, as a healthy supplement, and for beauty purposes. It is wonderful stuff and I will be always keeping this coconut oil on …
