Taco Bell Volcano Taco
I like spicy food, crunchy tacos, and nacho cheese, so I thought I would like Taco Bell’s Volcano Taco for sure. Unfortunately, I was wrong. The Volcano Taco was very disappointing, and I’m glad I had the rest of their box meal to fall back on.
I found the …
Two-Bite Brownies
I wasn’t sure about getting Two-Bite Brownies but I had read a few reviews and they sounded pretty positive so when I went shopping at Sam’s Club recently, I took a chance on them. I really love brownies, but baking from scratch is something I used to do …
Sugar Free Crystal Light Frozen Pops- Lemondade and Raspberry Lemonade
Since I liked their other variety of popsicle, I decided to try Crystal Light Lemonade and Raspberry lemonade flavor. The other product was a pink lemonade and cherry/pomegranate flavored duo, which I liked very much. This pair was of the same quality. I did not care for the regular …
Gerber Graduates
My daughter loves Gerber Graduates. She no longer is a baby, even though she is a little older now, she still, every now and then gets hankering for the peach cobbler. I must admit, in trying it myself, I have enjoyed it. It tastes just like …
Jack ‘n Jill Magic Cream Combo Peanut Butter cream Choco cracker
If you live in the Philippines you might be familiar with the magic cream sandwich crackers. I was just introduced to this product for only two months because I only know of the Magic flakes (soda crackers). So, two months ago my mom brought home this Sandwich cracker. She …
Nestle Cluster Banana Nut Cereals
I wanted to have some variety for my breakfast cereals and so I bought different cereals from different brands. This one is a Nestle branded cereal, and it is the Nestle Cluster Banana Nut breakfast cereals. This is relatively cheaper than the Nestle Fitnesse and Fruit variety. I was …
Blue Bunny Champ! Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae Ice Cream Cones
I really enjoyed this Blue Bunny Champ! Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae Ice Cream Cones. I liked it a lot because of a couple of reasons: the vanilla ice cream part of this cone was pretty rich and delicious. Although I have had better vanilla ice cream, I must say …
Great Value Crescent Rolls

Original Mini Wheats cereal
As a kid, I mostly liked sugary cereals, if given the option. But those aren’t very healthy. Mini Wheats are a good compromise cereal, because they are a little bit sweet but mostly wheat. So not the most healthy in the world, but a pretty good start to a …
Swanson Pot Pies
Whenever I shop for pot pies, I try to balance quality with price. I want something that is filling and tastes great. But, I also hate spending more than a $1 each on them.
That’s why I ended up purchasing Swanson Turkey pot pies the other day. They looked like …

Maestrani Swiss organic chocolate raspberry
I must say that I was expecting much more of this chocolate. When you read Swiss on the chocolate wrapping you immediately know you are going to have a treat, especially if the wrapping itself looks very expensive too. Bio is a synonym for health in my head so …
Pillsbury Quick Bread Pumpkin
The other day I tried baking two loafs of these for the very first time and I am very happy with the results. This pumpkin bread is truly delicious! Even more amazing is the fact that it tastes just like my grandmother’s zucchini bread that I remember from my …
Cascadian Farm Organic Dark Chocolate Almond Granola
As with many of my grocery store adventures, I stumbled across Cascadian Farm Organic Dark Chocolate Almond Granola, when browsing in the healthy section of my neighborhood Krogers. The thought of dark chocolate almond, instantly made my mouth water. Not only was the cereal granola, it included some …
The Royal Dansk Danish Butter Cookies
Last Wednesday, my husband’s boss had gifted us a 3.3 lb tin of the Royal Dansk Danish Butter Cookies. Even while I think of it and pen down this review, my mouth actually waters. Such is the aroma and taste of the butter cookies. True to its origin !!!

Andok’s Roasted Chicken
Even when different brands of roasted chicken are widely propagating in different parts of the urban areas I would say my first choice is still Andok’s. I don’t know exactly if Andok’s is the first of its kind. What is important is Andok’s tastes the best. Their roasted chicken …

Mrs. Field’s Cookies
I was rather surprised to find that Mrs. Field’s cookie shop in my local mall, wanted four dollars for five cookies! Now, I could perhaps understand this price if the cookies were cake-sized, but rather, they are more morsel-like in size. So, while their marketing ploy to …
Entenmann’s Sour Cream Loaf Cake
Although this does not really sound very much like a dessert, Entenmann’s Sour Cream Loaf Cake is certainly worthy of a person’s time and money if that person enjoys the flavor of sour cream. This loaf cake really will set a person’s taste buds ablaze with the strong sour …

Saffola All Time Active Rice
I saw this bag of rice in the grocery and I got curious on how it was labeled as Active rice and it claims also to keep you full for a longer period of time. I do know that most rice keep you full especially if you have taken …
Little Debbie Snacks Donut Sticks
Little Debbie Snacks Donut Sticks are really quite good! They are basically a glazed donut, but in the form of a rather long stick rather than a circle. They are quite sweet and decent size, although I wish that they would put more than just six in a box. …
IttiBitz Cotton Candy Ice Cream
IttiBitz Cotton Candy ice cream is a sweet, delight I found in the ice cream aisle of super Wal-Mart. It’s pretty small but the flavor packs a mean punch if you’re into cotton candy.
IttiBitz is one of those “dots” ice cream; not exactly from the company Dots, but it …
Nutrimalt
I love Malta drinks even though most people around me can’t get used to the taste. Usually I will go for Malta. It is the only brand that I consider “nice” - but that’s mainly because I had never tried other brands before.
Few days …
Cherry Lime-ade Margaritas
If you like frozen drinks, you will really get a kick out of this homemade frozen treat. The recipe calls for a small jar of maraschino cherries, some tequila or rum (whichever you choose), and a small can of frozen limeade, which you can find in your …
Edward’s key lime pie

Breakstones Sour Cream Ranch Dip
I am not a big chip and dip eater, but I recently tried the new Breakstone’s Sour Cream Ranch Dip with some traditional potato chips and was really impressed with how good the dip tasted. The dips actually had creamy thickness to it and a light ranch flavor, but …
McCain Solo Gourmet Microwave Pizza
This review is for the McCain Solo Gourmet Microwave Pizza. These are wonderful pizzas. They are personal sized with thin crust. I have only tried the Portobello and Crimini Mushroom flavor, however, there are three other varieties, including, five-roasted vegetable. The Portobello and Crimini Mushroom …
Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup Mix
I don’t drink chocolate milk everyday, but when I do, I make sure that I have some chocolate syrup in the refrigerator. My brand choice is Hershey’s, mainly because I trust the name. I also like the taste of Hershey’s Chocolate. I got a bottle at Martin’s Grocery store …
Great Value Lasagna

Smucker’s Chocolate Magic Shell
When I visited the USA I always used to buy my favourite vanilla ice cream there because they never used to import it yet (they do now) plus I can make ice cream that matches that particular brand. Anyway, on to ice cream sauces. There are always a variety …

Joy Ice Cream Cups
Unfortunately for me, my favorite grocery store has changed brands again, something they do from time to time, only this time it’s definitely not a good thing. The product in question is a box of ice cream cones. I really liked the other brand they carried, but …

Bud Light Beer
I think Bud Light is an OK beer but not a great beer. I mean the beer does taste pretty good, But I don’t think it is the best beer in the world. The taste is not that bad. I would say Bud Light tastes a lot better than regular …
Pinakurat Vineagar (a local vineagar)
I first heard this Pinakurat Vinegar from my mom when she got home one day from my aunt’s house. She told me that my aunt bought this new vinegar from the local market and tried it for dipping fish crackers and chicharon. She said it tasted good and that …
Ristora Cappuccino decaf

Entenmann’s Little Bites Chocolate Chip Muffins
I find these Entenmann’s Little Bites Chocolate Chip Muffins to be rather plain and boring. There is simply not much to them. The muffin cake is alright, although somewhat on the dry side. I prefer my muffins to be quite moist and fresh - that is most certainly when …
