There are lots of people who hate wine. I have plenty of friends who’d rather consider cannibalism than drink a drop of wine. I am an individual who felt the same way. There was just something about it that tasted horrible, and I could never drink it. Not even …

I’m not a big drinker. I have some health issues which mean that one or two drinks is pretty much my limit and that is one of the reasons I like Kahlua. It’s the perfect drink for every now and then.
Firstly the taste of Kahlua is pretty …

Nescafe Gold Blend is an instant coffee that I have been buying for years as it is a reliable, quality coffee. It is marketed as a premium instant coffee and you may remember the sexy Gold Blend ad campaign of the 90s aimed at a social-climbing, middle-class audience. …

I was a bit hungry this morning on my way to work and decided to stop off at the store to pick up something to snack on.
After looking around, I ended up buying a Food Pride sausage & cheese tray.
I have had these in the past and have found …

This might be a funny item to review, but you know what, I just had to try it after seeing my wife eat it with her morning coffee over and over again. I had to try it and form my own opinion. I had to see how it is …

I was looking for a quick lunch Saturday afternoon and ended up running up the street to Walgreens to purchase a single-serve sized Stouffer’s Meat Lasagna. I have had these in the past and, for the most part, will confess I’m getting a
bit burned out on them. But, they do …

After eating my very first Michelina’s Lean Gourmet product, I really wasn’t expecting much from their Pepperoni Pizza Snack Rolls. In fact, I never would have purchased this product, or the other two I did at the same time, had I been aware that Michelina’s is essentially Weight …

I prefer chicken over ground meat when it comes to hot sandwiches. Combine that with cheese and bacon and I’m sold. I get a lot of gift cards from people because they know I love food. When I got one for Chili’s, I was tempted to …

Product Description: Low fat frozen meals available at most stores for around $1. The variety I ended up trying was the 5-cheese lasagna.
What I liked about this product: Even though I really should do more to watch my weight, I usually avoid low-fat frozen dinners like this. Part of …

A simple meal preparation - the instructions given for this product are very simple and to the point. The preparation time, in my opinion should be changed. While the recommended cooking time ensures that the pasta contained in the dish is fully cooked, the overall appearance and consistency could …

If you suffer from arthritis in your hands or carpal tunnel syndrome in your wrists you may want to exercise your hands and either knit or crochet. Years ago many crochet needles came in aluminum which after using it for a half hour, you would notice that your …

After trying many other brands of green tea, and not enjoying their quality and taste I decided to try Bigelow’s 100% Organic tea. Usually, I use loose leaf tea, however when I am in a rush in the mornings I like to use tea bags as they are much …

I’ve tried, oddly enough, quite a few different kinds of instant mashed potatoes. Maybe I’m just lazy? At any rate, these ones are, obviously, quite easy to make, because just like all the others, all you have to do is add hot water. You don’t even have to heat …

It has been my morning ritual to drink hot chocolate together with newly baked wheat bread. When I am traveling to western countries during winter season, a cup of warm chocolate is the best thermal blanket for me. This is one of the most important beverage I would have every …

I am a major fan of tea and I love trying new varieties of this beverage. Whenever I see a new variety I have to get my hands on it! When I saw this variety of green tea made with peach and mangosteen flavorings, hence the “superfruit” label, I …

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 …

A coffee is not a coffe if it’s not Nescafe!!!!!
Who doesn’t love the addicting aroma of hot steaming coffe every morning? Of course everyone loves it; so do I.
They said that coffee is bad for one’s health but it doesn’t bother me at all. I love its …

I went looking for an energy drink at my local grocery store because I had a long drive I had to do one afternoon and evening that would require me to be awake for 19 hours that day. I distrust a lot of the energy drinks like Red Bull, because …

Clancy’s Focaccia Sticks Roasted Garlic and Herb can be purchased from ALDI Food Market stores for one dollar and ninety-nine cents. The focaccia sticks come in a five ounce bag. ALDI Food Market stores also carry this product in another flavor: Clancy’s Focaccia Sticks Four Cheese, but I’m not …

Last December I was shopping at Sam’s Club and there was a sample table set up with some fudge. I’m no dummy so I took the sample and really liked it. I enjoyed it so much I decided to buy a package. The Fudgie Wudgie Fudge …

I remember first trying Kelloggs All Bran years ago in the 80s when high fibre diets were being promoted as a good way to lose weight. All Bran is so high in fibre that the idea is that it will expand in your stomach and make you feel …

Campbell’s Condensed Tomato Soup used to be one of my most often-used cooking ingredients - until I had tried the Great Value brand and discovered that it works just as well. After that, I am sorry to say, I betrayed Campbell’s tomato soup and stopped buying it. Still, it …

Whenever we go to the multiplex theatre to watch the movies or for shopping there is a place or spot, which we never miss and that is the Domino�s veg burger. One is vegetarian and simple and another Domino�s burger comes with the hot chicken stuff. Both …

I’ve never really thought of myself as a fan of crackers, especially salty ones, but I have to say that eating Noel’s Saltin Crackers can be quite addictive. I’m enjoyng some right now in fact as I’m writing this, and am forcing myself not to reach into the bag …

This yoghurt comes in a variety of flavours. I have tried strawberry, raspberry, and peach, and so far, prefer peach. Strawberry is nice too. I have tried the individual serving packs - those small containers meant for one snack.
I bought this yoghurt because I had a coupon. I figured …

This is a great tasting wine. I gave it to quite a few friends at a party and every single one of them said they enjoyed the taste. It’s a tasty wine, and the alcoholic and acidic content is down to a minimum - indeed, it’s probably the closest …

I had asked my husband to get some snacks along with the grocery shopping for the week. I wasn’t going out as I had things to do at home. When I mentioned snacks I wasn’t thinking of biscuits. The kinds of tidbits I like are roasted …

While I was out shopping, I was dying of hunger and I needed a quick snack. I smelt something extremely delicious and following it, I came upon Auntie Anne’s Pretzels, a shop filled with delicious varieties of pretzels, from traditional salted to sweet cinnamon. Now, I am not a …

Lately, when nighttime comes around I cannot sleep because my panic attacks seem to take over and my insomnia kicks in. The other day I knew I had to do something about it when my asthma attacks started coming on with the panic attacks and insomnia at nighttime as …

New York Style - Cinnamon Raisin Bagel Crisps excel when it comes to the raisin portion of the bagel crisp but fall short in terms of cinnamon seasoning. For each bagel crisp, which is admittedly fairly small, a good number of raisins are crammed in. The raisins are tasty …

Pan de Manila’s pan de sal is the best tasting pan de sal i have tried so far in my entire life. Pan de sal, which literally means bread with salt, is a common staple food in my country, usually being eaten at breakfast served with coffee or any …

I absolutely loved Cup Noodle when I was little and I still love them today. They were always quick, tasty and best of all cheap. Cup Noodle is awesome for between college classes or a quick break at work. I don’t recommend eating them all the time; it’s …

Although in the shop you can find more varieties of Lipovitan, the one that I always end up buying is Lipovitan D. There are stronger energy drinks but this one is effective enough for me.
Judging by the times I have drank Lipovitan D, I have checked that it keeps …

I fell in love with this chocolate spread the first time I tried it. It tastes so yummy and satisfies my craving for something sweet and chocolatey but healthy. One jar of this delicious spread contains real hazelnuts which makes this one healthy. I usually spread it on top …

I was a bit reluctant to order this dish. The description in the menu explains that the chicken breast is diced, seasoning, deep-fried, and then tossed in a spicy/sweet orange sauce. It is served with steamed white rice on a bed of crunchy vegetables. …

I have been a fan of Knorr soups as they are easy to make and my family loves the soups. The soup powder comes in a 52 g pack and is produced by Hindustan Lever Ltd in India. It is very easy to make the soup from the powder …

I don’t consider myself a professional when it comes to evaluating wine. However, I do live in California and I have I think been exposed wine tastings and enjoyed different wines over the last ten years. I do think my palette has developed in that time.
My boyfriend brought this …

The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends for the Game Boy Color is not so much of a great game as it is a fun experience for those that grew up with this classic show. I will be the first to say that I play this game because …

I’ve been aware of Smucker’s for quite sometime due to their popular grape and strawberry jelly products. I’m not really much for grilled cheese sandwiches in the frozen food aisle because it doesn’t have the flavor and sweat of a homemade grilled cheese sandwich, but on my friend’s recommendation, …

I recently bought a box of Pillsbury Toaster Scrambles for our house, figuring they would be a quick breakfast that would hopefully be both filling and great tasting.
Well, after trying them the past couple of days, I can honestly say it only got one of the three right.
First of …

This trail mix didn’t do much for me. It really doesn’t have very much variety in flavor or texture. There are basically two flavors to this trail mix: sweet and salty. There’s no variation in sweetness, like mildly sweet or super sweet and the same is true concerning the …

KurKure is another snack, which is very light and crispy. And the different flavourers of kurkure are good and spicy. Particularly the tasty and tangy imli flavour of the kurkure is my favourite. We can also make the very interesting recipe using the tomato, cucumber and …

Once more, it’s time for another trip to the old figurative lunch pail for a lighter liquid lunch alternative. This time on the docket is Wye River Eastern Shore Style Oyster Stew. Hmm another seafood soup; in my experience that can be a “risky” proposition. So how does …

My dad just bought us a pack of Haagen Dazs Coffee Almond Crunch. It is coffee ice cream covered with a generous coating of milk chocolate and almonds.
I have always been a fan of Haagen Dazs ice cream bar, but in the past, I have …

I started buying these a while back because I wanted to have options that were quick & simple but that were not unhealthy. As a busy student & part time worker, I don’t have time sometimes to prepare a meal so these are really helpful for on the go …

Little gingerbread man cookies are almost as closely associated with Christmas as the candy cane is, or perhaps equally so, so it’s no wonder that this type of Christmas cookie commonly appears in holiday movies and in kitchens across the world come the Christmas season. Not everyone though enjoys …

I admit up front that I’m not much of a health-conscious eater. I grew up on junk and processed foods, so most of the ‘good for you’ foods just don’t agree with my taste buds. Last year, though, I became acquainted with the Corazonas brand. It’s …

When it comes to dieting one of my favorite things to keep around the house is yogurt. I can eat it for a snack, for breakfast and for desert without feeling too guilty about the carbs and calories that it has. One of my favorite brands is …

We were eating pancakes at my mother-in-law’s house and with it is some butter and this Karo Pancake Syrup. It is a caramel-like syrup made specially for pancakes which is very thick. It’s in an easy-squeeze transparent bottle (16 Fl oz). From what I’ve read at …

I’ve been on a diet lately and looking for alternative healthy and tasty drinks. I usually just drink soda but I know I have to kick the habit, so I decided to try V8 Fusion Vegetable and Fruit Juice. I can honestly say that I was quite …
