Lu Pim’s Jaffa cakes
I really like Jaffa cakes and I like them fresh soft and hydrated. Well maybe the word hydrated aren’t the best one but what I want to say is that sometimes these Jaffa cakes can be very dry and not very tasty. So I don’t like to experiment with …
Market Pantry Saltine Crackers
Saltine crackers are a pretty basic food, something that I would think is pretty difficult to mess up. I mean, how much more basic can you get than a simple cracker with a bit of salt on it? Somehow, however, Market Pantry (a generic brand sold at …
Brach’s Butterscotch Hard Candy
Having grown up as a life saver junkie, I tended to stay away from most other similar products and hard candies. Recently, though, I was given Brach’s Butterscotch Hard Candy and I sure did enjoy it.
Butterscotch, cinnamon, and peppermint are probably my two favorite flavors for life savers …
Little Debbie Iced Honey Buns
Little Debbie Iced Honey Buns are an enjoyable treat once and awhile that could stand an improvement. There is supposed to be a light amount of cinnamon added to these honey buns, and there most certainly is just that, but in my opinion, the honey buns would taste a …
Wai Loong’s Chicken Wantons
I don’t usually buy wantons because I make my own at home which come out quite nicely if I do say myself. One day I decided to try Wai Loong’s Chicken Wantons from their extensive menu of differently filled wantons, because I was not going to be home for …
Pim Pom loly pops
The pim pom loly pops are the favorite loly pops for my kids. The pim pom loly pops come in many varieties or in many flavors which are very tastier. My 3 year old son always wants to have it. Its main flavors are banana, mango, …
Great Value 8 Enriched Jumbo Hamburger Buns
Although I tend to personally prefer the L’oven Fresh Hamburger Buns for hamburgers, roast beef, chicken patties and so on, there are others in my family that like the Great Value 8 Enriched Jumbo Hamburger Buns because of how big they are. I don’t care for big buns myself …
Little Debbie Dessert Cakes - Chocolate
I find these Little Debbie Dessert Cakes - Chocolate to be a little on the bland side. The reason I find them to be bland is because the chocolate cake just does not seem all that rich or moist, really. The chocolate flavor is simply not as delicious and …
Simply Orange Juice by Tropicana
I drink orange juice more than any other beverage. I would say that I am a pretty good analyzer of whats good orange juice. I have tried virtually all of the orange juices sold at my neighborhood Frys store.
I noticed a new orange juice being offered at Frys about …
Snickers Dark Chocolate
Dark Chocolate is my favorite snack. Everytime I see a new brand of dark chocolate, I immediately buy 1 bar to try it. Trying each new brand of dark chocolate is always an adventure for me. I’m always on the lookout for great tasting dark chocolate …
Nissin Cup noodles
If you want to enjoy some ready to eat food then I think Nissin Cup noodles are really something you will enjoy eating. All we need is to add a cup of water to the noodles and leave it covered for about 3-4 minutes and the noodles are ready …
Great Value Apple Flavored Drink Mix
Walmart’s brand, Great Value, makes many generic alternatives in almost any category. Last week I purchased a powdered drink mix made by (or distributed by) Walmart, made to be similar to name brand “Crystal Light.” It is sugar free, sweetened with aspartame, and has five calories per serving.
I wasn’t …
Nabisco Vegetable Thins Crackers
I’ve always enjoyed vegetable thins crackers, which have the tangy taste of veggies added to a wheat cracker that was strong enough to dip without breaking, but they were a bit heavy and harder to chew than some of the other thin crackers, like Better Cheddars. They came …
Cape Cod Potato Chips
What can I say about chips. There are so many brands and flavors to choose from on the store shelves today. Everybody’s tastebuds are different. I personally go for spicy chips. Well my daughter spends more time in the snack isle, than I do. She always brings me …
Iceberg’s Chocolate German U-Boat Banana Split
The weather now is really crazy hot. With summer temperatures reaching 36-37 degrees Celsius, I really needed a nice, cold ice cream dessert that could quench my thirst. I am literally having headaches because of the heat!
It is a good thing to know that there is a nearby …
Bubble Gum Cigarettes
I remember when we were kids, we used to think how cool it would be to have smoke coming out of your mouth. My cousins and I had great fun with the bubble gum cigarettes, which we used to fake our parents into thinking we were smoking out in …
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 …
Hershey’s Strawberry Syrup
While I was at the store recently, my kids asked me to get some Hershey�s strawberry syrup. Since it was on sale, I decided to give in and get some more. My kids like to make strawberry flavored milk with the Hershey�s strawberry syrup. They also …
Alexia Crunchy Snacks - Onion Strips Savory Seasoned
Alexia Crunchy Snacks - Onion Strips Savory Seasoned are very flavorful! I enjoy onion rings quite a lot, and these onion strips remind me very much of onion rings! These onion strips make great sides to my dinner meal, like if I am having some kind of meat, like …
Trailing rosemary
We bought two of these plants for about four dollars a piece at Lowes, they were potted in one gallon containers and were about a foot tall. Since then, it has been about five weeks, and they have expanded in size quite a bit. They now stand about a …
Gavrilovic liver pate
If there’s some food that I really hate that’s liver. I remember my mother was preparing that when I was younger and I hated it and I was making scenes because I didn’t wanna eat it. I still hate it today and I never eat it. Well except in …
Spitz Sunflower Seeds “Seasoned”
Sunflower seeds, the perfect food for a sporting event, camping, boating… or in my case, passing time at work or keeping myself awake on a long drive. I’ve been a “David” brand guy all my life, but the other day I picked up a couple bags of “Spitz” to …
Food Club Garlic Bread
We made a lasagna dinner last night and, as we usually do whenever we have pasta, we decided to get some garlic bread to go with it.
We didn’t have a whole lot of money to spend so we kept within a tight budget and bought the cheapest brand we …
M&M’s Milk Chocolate Chocolate Candies
There’s something about the smell of M&M’s Milk Chocolate Chocolate Candies that gets your attention right away. I’ve grown up eating these candy treats, so that’s decades worth of experience. The taste is consistently good, something helped out by the milk chocolate ingredient.
M&M’s Milk Chocolate Chocolate Candies …
Rosina Homestyle Meatballs
I really love spaghetti and meatballs like no other meal, and I like them together or separately, which is why I’m constantly hoping to find a good tasting product to satisfy my cravings. One product that is doing a good job of that is Rosina Homestyle Meatballs.
I’ve used …
Hornsby’s Crisp Apple Hard Cider
If you like the taste of apples, you will love this hard cider! I have tried a lot of different hard ciders because I enjoy regular cider so much, and this one tastes just like apple cider. You would never guess that these drinks have a 5% alcohol content.
Hard …
Springbank Cheese Company
This weekend, I finally visited one of the places I have been wanting to see for some time now, the Springbank Cheese Company. It is advertised as one of Calgary’s premier cheese stores, and as cheese is one of the highlights of my life, I was looking forward to it. …
Albertsons Frozen Mixed Vegetables
Albertsons Frozen Mixed Vegetables are enjoyable in some ways and disappointing in other ways. For example, the corn and carrots are both on the dull side. The carrots have at least some flavor, but the corn might as well not even be there because they contribute nothing, pretty much. …
Dilmah Ceylon Tea
I have tasted Ceylon tea before, but this was the first time we went to buy a Dilmah 100 tea bag pack. The aroma and flavour differs from other tea to some extent. Opening the pack leaves the fragrance of tea leaves and …
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 …
Kettle Chips: New York Cheddar
Yum yum!! When I don’t want barbeque I so head for New York Cheddar. Most of the time. I love the tangy cheese that tastes like real sharp cheddar instead of the weird cheeselike orange powder one can find elsewhere. The chips are perfectly cooked too …
Entenmann’s All Butter Loaf Cake
I find Entenmann’s All Butter Loaf Cake to be a decent treat to have with my breakfast every now and then. There is nothing really incredibly special about this loaf cake, although I feel that it offers a decent enough flavor to have once or twice a week, sometimes. …
Magnolia Pancake Plus
One in a while I indulge myself and eat a sinfully delicious stack of pancakes. I cook for one, but most packaging are for several people. I was glad that I saw Magnolia Pancake Plus in a 200g packaging in the grocery. The label said that it can make …
Ben & Jerry’s Half Baked Ice-Cream
During the warm months of summer, I have a great excuse to buy my favourite store-bought ice-cream. Although I keep trying new flavours, Ben & Jerry’s Half Baked remains my very favourite. I do detest paying the $7 or so for a tiny container, but there are times that …
Bubble Tea
One of my recent cravings is for tea drinks with pearls. As a result, I always find myself going to the Bubble Tea branch in Tomas Morato which has only been open for several months. I like the branch because aside from being near my place, it …
Blue Bunny Jolly Rancher Bomb Pop
The Blue Bunny Jolly Rancher Bomb Pop is really not that terrific, in my opinion. The reason I am not won over with these bomb pops is because of the flavor. There are supposed to be a multitude of flavors to be found on these bomb pops, but what …
Barber Foods Kiev Stuffed Chicken Breasts
I’ve tried many stuffed chicken breasts, but I never had the opportunity to try the ones with the butter in them. I wasn’t sure about getting more than one box of the Barber Foods Kiev stuffed chicken breasts because not all garlic butter is good butter.
I put the chicken …
Camel Cigarettes
I know smoking is probably bad for me, but it is my priveledge to smoke, and I love Camel cigarettes. When I was 14 I started my ‘ filthy’ habit with Camel Filters Box. For a year I was a Camel Filter girl, then I tried Camel Lights Box. …
Chocolate Samba
I am not a chocolate lover. I am not the kind of girl that loves to eat chocolates and not the kind that craves for one either. Well, to be honest there is only about 5 chocolates that I would be caught eating. Others I would only try but …
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 …
Goya Cookies and Cream Bar
I remember I made a review about Hershey Cookies and Cream Bar before; Goya Cookies and cream is the local brand that I was talking about on that review. I tried this one first before Hershey comes out with its own Cookies and Cream flavor. Goya chocolate Cookies and …
Cliff Energy Bars
Taking care of my health due to restraint was becoming a major cause of concern in my life. Playing the role of a perfect homemaker and also trying to complete my assignments on time gradually started taking a tool on my health. Just eating what was available at my …
Snapps Mozzarella Sticks
I decided to pick up something easy for dinner last night, one of those skillet meals you can find in the freezer section. Because I was concerned it wouldn’t be filling enough, I also decided to pick up something to go with it. After looking around a bit, I …
St. Louis Bread Company Low Fat Strawberry Smoothie
I am a frequent customer at my local Panera. They know me by name and practically have my order going as I enter the door because they can read my mind on what I want. Because I go there so frequently and hand over a sizeable portion …
Sharwood noodles
I love eating noodles and I normally have noodles almost every week which I prepare and made in different kinds of dishes. I love using this Sharwood noodle whenever I am making some Chinese curry soup with coconut cream. One good thing with this noodle is that …
Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Honey Bun
I do not feel that there is anything particularly special about Mrs. Freshley’s Jumbo Honey Bun compared with the other honey buns made by other companies that can be found in the grocery store, but I nonetheless enjoyed what was likely my one and only purchase of a Mrs. …
Arce Dairy Blueberry Cheesecake
I was looking for a new flavor for an ice cream, or let’s just say I am looking for a flavor that is not so common to our taste buds. I went to the mall and look for something unusual flavor for an ice cream, then I found Arce …
Pillsbury Macadamia Nut Cookie Dough
Product description: Pre-measured macadamia nut cookie dough. There is enough in the package for 12 cookies and is available in more stores’ refrigerated sections for around $2.50.
What I liked about this product: The pre-measured part of the dough is one thing that is always going to win me over. …
Baker’s Corner Spring Sprinkles
The Baker’s Corner Spring Sprinkles come in a six point seventy-five ounce jar for two dollars and ninety-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. The sprinkles come in a variety of bright, cheery colors that range from yellow to purple to blue to pink and more, and they are …
