Nestea drink
I like tea a lot, and when Nestea first appeared, I was looking for some alternative to frizzy drinks in summer, so I thought that I had to try this refreshing drink. Since then I haven’t been able to live without this delicious drink. I don’t only drink it …
Skippy Peanut Butter
When it comes to peanut butter, I am very particular about what I choose. I have eaten Skippy brand peanut butter since I can remember. I guess I just took my mother’s lead with it and very rarely tried other brands of Peanut Butter simply because I was used …
Tuna fish in olive oil Sapore Vero
We all know that Rio mare is one of the most advertised tuna fish and it is really good but I really hate paying a lot of money for things that I can get for much cheaper. I know so many people who aren’t very rich but buy only …
Sobe Life Water
I first started drinking Sobe Life water as an alternative to help break the habit of drinking to much coffee and soda. Now I have mostly eliminated soda for Sobe. I do miss all that yummy soda, but the zero calories, no artificial sweeteners Sobe Life Water has versus soda, …

Oscar Meyer is that brand many affectionately know for their lunch meat, lunchables and hot dogs. I’ve come to try their brand of cold cut lunch meat. Instead of getting my usual slow roasted turkey, I decided to give the Selects Rotisserie Chicken breast, lunch meat a try.

Cookout Peach Cobbler Milkshake
Cookout is a local fast food chain in the area around Charlotte, North Carolina. While on a trip there recently I kept seeing advertisements for their specialty milkshakes and the Peach Cobbler sounded too good to pass up. I ended up grabbing one, but now I wish I had …
Krusteaz Bakery Style Sugar Cookies
I do not have sugar cookies too often, but when I do, I generally pick up Krusteaz Bakery Style Sugar Cookies at the grocery store because these cookies, much like their other cookie mixes, do not disappoint. The sugar cookies that come from this mix are quite buttery and …
Combos Snacks - Nacho Cheese Pretzel
Combos Snacks - Nacho Cheese Pretzel differs slightly from the cheddar cheese variety, although both are fairly similar. The difference rests in the type of cheese used.

Vigo Italian Style Breadcrumbs
I love to cook and I don’t mind admitting I use a few shortcuts.

Kellogg’s Fruit Snacks- Mixed Berry
They’re three types of Kellogg fruit snacks that I have seen, none of them taste bad what so ever, but mixed-berry is my least favorite out of the three by far. The other two flavors are great. This has never been one of my favorite kinds.
This is the only …
Ness Cafe
Ness caf� is an international branded coffee. Naturally it has very good taste and I have tasted it. Especially it is very well suited to prepare the cold coffee. The taste of the creamy cold coffee prepared using this branded coffee is excellent. The cost …
Quaker Instant Oatmeal Maple&Brown Sugar (lower sugar)
Oatmeal is my go-to breakfast: it tastes great (if cooked right), it doesn’t take much time to cook, it’s healthy, it suites most people’s needs (it’s usually vegan, it’s gluten free and I don’t know anybody who’s allergic to oatmeal) and it’s cheap. Seriously, is there a better breakfast option? …

Glutino Gluten Free Cheddar Crackers
These crackers taste as good, if not better, than regular cheddar crackers. That might seem like a bold statement because gluten free foods often don’t taste the same or as great but in this case, it’s the truth.
The box when purchased contains two silver packages of these crackers. The …
Kroger Lite Ranch Salad Dressing
Compared with “regular” ranch salad dressing, the Kroger Lite Ranch Salad Dressing has fewer calories and significantly less fat. It’s not devoid of either, but it has fewer of both for those that are watching just how many calories and how much fat they consume but still want to …
Kirkland Signature Bottled Water
I hate to admit this (especially during these “go green” times) that I like to drink bottled water. In fact, you can find me drinking anything from Smart water to Aquafina to grocery store brand water.
Over the summer I worked outside and was constantly drinking water. The water I …
Kernel Season’s Bacon Cheddar Seasoning
Bacon is a big thing for some folks out there. For them, adding bacon to pretty much anything and everything automatically makes what they’re eating that much better. Bacon has even been incorporated into some desserts! Now personally, I do like bacon, I just don’t like it so much …
Aia Wudy Hot dog
I don’t like hot dogs usually because I know they are always made from the worst part of the leftovers of the meat. My Dad was working in the place where they used to produce hot dog so after some stories I’ve heard I didn’t wanna eat hot dogs …
Lipton tea
My favorite drink is tea and it is very popular in many countries of the world. There are several brands but the best one I found is Lipton tea. They have all kinds of tea : camille, green tea, lemon, fennol tea, camomile tea and many others.
I like green …

I followed the directions on the …
Coffee House Ready to drink coffee
I know I already have attested and admitted how much I enjoy drinking a cup or a glass of cold coffee or frappucino. Well it is not quite obvious that even coffee mixes in tetra packs have been tried by me. Just this morning, I tried the “coffeehouse” brand …
Yoplait Orginial Red Velvet Cake Yogurt
After trying the “Yoplait Original Key Lime Pie Yogurt” I made it a goal of mine to try several others of Yoplait’s exotic flavoured yogurts. One of these flavours was the “Yoplaits Original Red Velvet Cake Yogurt.” Just the name of it made me very excited about trying it, …

Wendy’s - Ultimate Chicken Grill
Wendy’s - Ultimate Chicken Grill is a sandwich that is, admittedly, huge. The large chicken breast will really make your eyes go wide! Unfortunately, I just did not care for this sandwich too much because I am not a great big fan of grilled chicken. I much prefer the …
Dunkin Donuts Ground Coffee
I have the best memories going to the Dunkin Donuts shop when I was a kid. The smells alone, great coffee and sugar sweet cakey scents, would keep me excited for a couple of days. The excitement of picking out a donut to eat in sit down shop made …

Spectrum - Unrefined, raw coconut oil
I am from a tropical place and have always loved tropical fruits. But considering that you get less tropical fruits in Northern US, its hard to find the fresh taste. When i was shopping for oils in Whole foods, then i saw this raw , virgin, unrefined coconut oil …
Little Debbie Peanut Butter on Toasty
I do not like these Little Debbie Peanut Butter on Toasty nearly as much as I enjoy the cheese and peanut butter crackers made by Little Debbie. After eating the cheese crackers, these plain crackers just taste, well, plain. There is not much to them other than they are …
Our Family Garlic Dinner Rolls
I decided to order a pizza Friday night and, because garlic bread from Pizza Hut is a bit too much, I decided to just pick some up from the store instead.
While at the store, I saw a box of Our Family Garlic Dinner Rolls. I figured it was something …
Ragu Clip it and Pour it Pouch
I’m a big pasta person. And, even though I’m not a huge fan of Ragu spaghetti sauce; I saw a commercial about their clip it and pour it pouches and, being a bit fan of convenience, I figured it would be worth investing in.
Overall, I’m happy with my purchase.
I …

Orville Redenbacher’s Pop Up Bowl
I love Orville Redenbacher’s and I love new gimmicks when it comes to snack foods so I didn’t need any convincing to try the new Pop Up microwavable bowls that came out last year. I was turned on by the thought of less clean up and I thought it …
Wendy’s - Coffee Toffee Twisted Frosty
Wendy’s - Coffee Toffee Twisted Frosty is a flavor combination that I thought I might like, but ultimately found out that it was a flavor combination that just did very little for me in terms of exciting my taste buds. The coffee syrup that is a part of the …
