The Mars Bar
This is one of my favourites. It’s the Mars Bar. It must be about the most filling, sweet, gooey sweet on the market and people can’t get enough of it.
The Mars advertisements on British TV were famous: “A Mars a day helps you work, rest and play.” Of …
Bonanza Ripple Potato Chips
Bonanza Ripple Potato Chips are a thick, hearty, crinkle cut chip designed for dipping. They are more crunchy than crisp and have a lightly salted, somewhat greasy potato flavor. The chips come in a sturdy metallic plastic bag and seem to have fewer broken chips per bag …
Andre Champagne Spumante
At night, I usually drinking wine at work because I feel this helped me to relieve my stresses during work. I love wine that is sweet and the alcoholic content is just low.
I already try a lot of wines, many of them are too expensive when you buy …
Great Value: Frozen Pancakes Buttermilk
Great Value: Frozen Pancakes Buttermilk are pretty bland and I did not enjoy them enough to purchase them again. One of the main reasons I did not care for these pancakes is because they felt apart very, very easily, which is no big surprise to me since water, not …
Blue Bonnet Margarine
Blue bonnet margarine is a great butter alterative for cooking I have found. I typically only use butter when I make baked good like cookies and cakes but recently was encouraged by a friend to give margarine a try. I have been pretty impressed with the quality I have …
Maggie noodles
My husband is a food lover and he always insists me to prepare different kinds of food for him. Even my kids love to taste different kinds of food. Last week I tried Maggie noodles for the first time. I prepared it in the evening as …
Chick-fil-A Cafe Blend Coffee
The Cafe Blend Coffee served at Chick-fil-A comes in three flavors: Coffeehouse Light, Bistro Dark and Expressly Decaf. The coffee served at this fast food restaurant seems to be a little stronger and more flavorful than that served at Burger King and Whataburger, although it is similar to McDonald’s …
Andre Pink Champagne
We had celebrated the beginning of the new 2007 year with a bottle of Andre Pink Champagne. This was the first time I tried it. I happen to prefer sweet champagne, which is next to impossible to find here in the US for some reason. Every other bottle I …
Smucker’s Blueberry Syrup
I wasn’t too pleased with this blueberry syrup. The main reason that I wasn’t very satisfied with this syrup is because it wasn’t as thick as the syrup I’m used to using, and that syrup is made and sold by Log Cabin. This syrup from Smucker’s was more watery …
Nestle Coffee Mate
The coffee creamer that everybody knows - it’s Nestle Coffee Mate.
Nestle Coffee Mate has been in the market for quite a while now. With its effective brand ad campaign using media advertisements, it outsells other labels of coffee creamer. And I must say that even without the media hype, …
Pez Orange Candy
I have always liked Pez candies, since I was a kid when my parents used to buy it for me. I guess they were buying them because they were small an dcheap so I wasn’t able to ruin my lunch if I eat even the whole 8,5g packing befor …
Tostitos Hint of Lime
The other day I tried this kind of tortilla chip again - I had had them before, but not really paid attention to the taste. They actually taste very good. I had thought lime sounded kind of strange for a chip flavour, but with the saltiness of tortilla chips, …
Great Value Fruit Slices
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 …
McDonalds Double Cheeseburgers
McDonalds is known for their greasy, unhealthy food, and their trademark double cheeseburger is no different. It is made with two hamburger patties, two slices of American cheese, a few pickles, some diced onion, and ketchup, between two standard buns. It sounds like any other American cheeseburger, but it’s …
Our Family Blueberry Waffles
We were out of frozen waffles and, since they are my daughter’s favorite breakfast food, I decided I should pick some up while I was at the grocery store last night.
I ended up buying the Our Family brand of waffles because of the price. The better known brands were …
Franziskaner Weissbier Naturtrub Wheat Beer
Hefeweizens are my absolute favorite type of beers, especially as a light beer, but I typically prefer them on draft as opposed to in a bottle. However, I’m really glad I decided to buy this Franziskaner Weissbier Naturtrub because it has quickly become one of my favorite Hefeweizens.
This wheat …
Snyder’s of Hanover Honey Mustard & Onion Pretzel Pieces
I love Rold Gold Honey Mustard pretzels but I have been having a difficult time finding it around. I always just see the original flavor which I do not feel like buying. That is why when I saw the Snyder’s of Hanover Honey Mustard and Onion Pretzel …
Kroger Birthday Bash Ice Cream
I’ve had this ice cream a few times, and I really do like it. Before I purchased it I didn’t really know much about it, though a co-worker of mine recommended it and said it was really great.
I like that the ice cream has a really festive appearance, with …
M&M Premium Candy
If you put candy in front of me chances are good that it will not last very long. I thank my genetic and fast metabolism regularly. My husband loves to bring me snacks on a fairly frequent basis.
My daughter loves M&M Mini’s while I prefer mine with …
Pringles Original
It’s so easy to spot this in the supermarket - - -a tall red coloured tube, at the top is a picture of a white man sporting bushy eyebrows and handle bar moustache and the red bow, below that the bright yellow letters spelling out PRINGLES. I don’t know …
Butter Ball Turkey
Like most American families we traditionally purchase a turkey at least once a year. I’m not sure of how we decided but for our family we eat turkey every Thanksgiving and Ham for Christmas. We have tried most brands of turkey available in our local supermarket but my personal …
Popcorn, Indiana Original Movie Theater Popcorn
This is a great treat to eat when I want a good old-fashioned popcorn that has a nice blend of butter and salt. I guess that’s why this Indiana company refers to it as movie theater popcorn. I heard that if you eat popcorn by itself with no butter …
Samosa Noodle Rolls
Samosa Noodle Rolls is quite a weird side-dish, if you look at it closely. However, the taste is quite nice and mix in some ketchup sauce and you are ready to dip in nicely.
To make this, you need some basic stuffs only and not that hard. …
Brent & Sam’s Chocolate Chip Pecan Gourmet Cookies
I had never encountered the brand name of cookies called Brent & Sam’s until my mother who came on vacation recently bought a couple of boxes of these cookies with her. She brought a box of Brent & Sam’s Chocolate Chip Gourmet Cookies and a box of Brent & …
Cedarlane Spinach & Mushroom Egg White Omelette
Cedarlane Spinach & Mushroom Egg White Omelette is a frozen breakfast meal that I have on occasion. It is a very filling breakfast omelette and it is also something that I find that I cannot eat too often because it does not always settle well with my stomach in …
Florida’s Natural Premium Apple Juice
This is one of the most mild juices that I’ve tasted from the Florida’s Natural Premium juice product line, which isn’t surprising really considering apples don’t have as much flavor as say oranges or grapefruits or cranberries or mangos. Even still though, I don’t mind mild drinks or food …
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 …
Make Great Instant Pancakes and Waffles
I have found a great mix online at amzazon. This mix is made by a little midwest company: heartland food products. This mix which I found after enjoying it at a fine hotel, is all in one. You only have to add water and I have to tell you …
Krusteaz Pecan Bar Mix
Krusteaz Pecan Bar Mix results in a tasty treat that offers up a pretty potent pecan flavor that makes for a delightful dessert item or even as something to go along with breakfast to bring some powerful pecan flavor to my breakfast meal. The pecan flavor is rich and …
EAS Chocolate Low Carb Shake
I really like the taste of the EAS low carb shakes. I have one almost every morning for breakfast. They only have 4 carbs total, which makes it the perfect thing for me.
The shakes are totally different from the slim fast kind. The slim fast ones …
Market Pantry Animal Crackers Classic and Chocolate
The Market Pantry Animal Crackers Classic and Chocolate come in a ten ounce box for ninety-nine cents. This is an item sold only at Target stores as it’s a store brand product. The box contains a mixture of plain animal crackers as well as chocolate-flavored animal crackers. I recall …
Izze Juice Beverage in Sparkling Grapefruit
This is a drink that I enjoy having once in a while, and I really should drink it more often, because it contains 70% pure fruit juice. It is basically like a grapefruit cocktail, because it is grapefruit juice (along with apple, orange, and other juices) combined with sparkling …
Ore Ida Golden Fries
One of my food vices is potatoes. I love them, and I especially adore French fries. I’m pretty finicky about my fries, though. I want them to be soft and hot and not oily. Some fast food restaurants really know how to make a good …
Hershey’s Cookie’s N Cream Milk
Hershey’s Cookies N Cream Milk is de-li-cious! I have tried a lot of breakfast shakes, milkshakes, protein shakes, and other milk products, but none stand a chance against Cookies N Cream. The taste is similar to that of the Hershey Cookies N Cream candy bar. Besides the …
Atkinson’s Long Boys
Atkinson’s Long Boys were a new type of candy for me, though not for the rest of the world. These candies have been around for at least 60 years, but I had never heard of them before. I’m the type of person who loves to try new things no …
Kolumbo Kras chocolate bar
This is a Croatian version of Toblerone, it is good and cheaper than toblerone, but it is not that good as toblerone. It is in a red triangular wrapping with white letters Kolumbo on it. It comes in 100g wrapping and in 200g ones.
The taste of the chocolate is …
Famous Amos Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’d heard about Famous Amos cookies off and on as a teenager, but I was an adult before I’d had any. That was when some individual packages were offered in a company snack box. I couldn’t resist and had to try them. After that, I regularly …
Sugar free natura
Sugar free natura is a low calorie sugar substitute, which comes in the form of very small tablets. These sugar free substitutes are used for cooking instead of using the sugar to avoid the extra calories. It is an ideal product for the diabetic patients. This …
Michelina’s Chicken Fried Rice
This is a delicious frozen meal that I love to have on occasion. It’s not exactly filling on its own, so I tend to have to add some mashed potatoes and bread, but when I do that, I end up getting filled up mighty nicely and I end up …
The Ultimate Fish Stick from Trident Seafoods
My wife and I needed to stop at Costco for a few things about a week ago and, since we were already there, we decided to check out the freezer section for food ideas that would be affordable and, at the same time, easy to make.
Fish sticks seemed like …
Hormel Compleats Chicken Alfredo
Hormel Compleats have many different varieties out there now. I’ve tried several because I love how quick and easy they are to prepare. The latest one I tried was Hormel Compleats Chicken Alfredo which is chicken with penne pasta in Alfredo sauce. It’s one serving of …
Blue Diamond Almonds: Roasted Coffee Flavored Almonds
Like many people, I love snacks, especially exotic snacks that aren’t really common. Usually I browse through my neighborhood grocery store, looking for a new item to try or a new flavor of a traditional items I usually buy.
I spotted Blue Diamond almond’s roasted coffee flavored almonds, …
Carlo’s Pizza
Carlo’s Pizza is one of places we like to frequent when we go to Tagaytay. Although there are various branches of this restaurant in Metro Manila, we find that the food and the dining experience in Tagaytay is much better.
This is a really great place to …
Madera Nashik Valley Red Wine
We went to buy a red wine which my hubby and I preferred to drink that night to unwind since he will have three days off. We ask a sales attendant to give us a bottle of sweet wine which is not that expensive so he gave us Madera …
Thumann’s Beef Frankfurters
I had never heard of Thumann’s Beef Frankfurters when I came across them in the grocery store, but I nonetheless purchased them because at the time, I had not yet found a store sold hot dog that I was satisfied with. This did not turn out to be the …
Mamee monster snack
Mamee monster - The title alone will create the impression of a terribly unhealthy, but incredibly delicious snack. It is one of the better ‘Made in Malaysia’ snacks, as compared to snacks like ‘Super ring’ (a cheap version of Cheezels) and the like.
Mamee monster is essentially a packet of …
New York Style - Pretzel Flatz Original
New York Style - Pretzel Flatz Original is a cross between a potato chip and a pretzel. It is actually just a pretzel in the shape and texture of a potato chip. This means that unlike a lot of pretzels sold, these pretzels are thinner and more brittle - …
N-Snow Sports Energy Drink
I’m not quite sure if everybody has heard of N-Snow sports energy drink. Not all of my friends know about this or even heard about it. I just discovered this drink through my dad. Well, it’s not really the taste that makes this drink different. What really amazed me …
Nestle’s Stixx
I looked in my mailbox one day last week and was delighted to find a small package. Like the song from “Sound of Music” says, “brown paper packages tied up with string” are among my favorite things.
The package contained Nestle’s Stixx, which was a new product launched in …
Charles Chocolates Ping Pong (Big Bag)
I love chocolates enough to call myself a chocoholic, but there are certain brands I prefer more than others mostly because of taste. The Charles chocolates brand is one of them, and that is why when I bought the “Charles Chocolate Ping Pong (Big Bag)” I had a lot …
