Banquet Salisbury Steak
Admittedly, Banquet Salisbury Steak does not exactly live up to its picture on the box. The steak does not look quite as big, the mashed potatoes do not look nearly as fluffy and the corn does not appear as fresh. Indeed, it looks as if judging by the size …
Dimes Premium Orange Juice
I have always liked drinking orange juice, especially in the morning. I prefer orange juice over all other types of juices. I think maybe I haven’t got enough when I was a kid. I don’t think that orange juices are only for kids though. It is really helpful in …

Nestea Peach Ice Tea
Until recently I had never tried iced tea, as I don’t like tea very much when it is hot. My fiancee however loves Nestea iced tea, and she usually has a bottle of it around the place, so that is how I came to try it.
The product …
Kroger Natural Creamy Peanut Butter
Due to health reasons, I only buy peanut butter that is “natural”, meaning the only ingredients are roasted peanuts and either salt or salt and sugar (and possibly a little extra oil), so that I can avoid the trans fats in hydrogenated oils that are often included in other …

Pringles Grilled Shrimp flavour Potato Crisps
Pringles has just invented new flavours for its potato crisps collection. There are no flavours such as seaweed and grilled shrimp. There is also a blueberry flavour. Our family has not indulged in potato crisps in a long time. I thought that would continue since I know that it …
Nature Valley Blueberry Yogurt Granola Bar

Dog On It
Dog On It is the name of a beverage that I found in our local United Grocery Outlet the last time I went shopping for groceries. I have to admit that the name makes me think of something that appeals more to kids rather than adults. However it is …
Mrs. Freshley’s Cherry Pie
Like the berry pie, Mrs. Freshley’s Cherry Pie is quite delicious on the inside but pretty poor when it comes to the bland and dry crust. The cherry filling is really very satisfying and rich, plus it has an authentic taste to it, which is something that is certainly …
Mcdonald’s Southern Style Chicken
I decided to try the new Southern Style Chicken Sandwich from the McDonald’s in Fairfield, NJ. When I first unwrapped this sandwich I was surprised to see that there were no condiments. The sandwich looked like it was a descent size. The chicken breast on this …
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 …

We used to buy Cheez Whiz Original with real cheese flavor; however, when we got to the grocery, we came across Cheez Whiz Milky Delight. Though it was new to us, we picked it instead of the Original Cheez Whiz. When we tasted it, we also love it!
Cheez Whiz …

Dickson’s Country Pumpkin butter
The smells of autumn food in November are equal to pumpkin pie, pecan pie, apple pie, and other pleasing fragrances. Having no taste developed for apple butter, it has caused me to shy away from that aisle in the grocery store. When I had peanut butter on my list, …

Marlboro Virginia Blend
I was somewhat hesitant to try Marlboro’s Virginia Blend. Marlboro makes some fine cigarettes, but they also make some real stinkers, too, and I was afraid their new Virginia Blend would fall under the latter category. However the price was right, as they were marketing it with …
UFC Banana Catsup

Chick-fil-A Waffle Potato Fries
The Waffle Potato Fries at Chick-fil-A are much better than the typical fast food fry, in my opinion.

Mrs. Freshley’s Crunch Mini Donuts
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Crunch Mini Donuts to be pretty bland, although I really am having a hard time determining if these or the chocolate variety are more dull in taste. The coconut flavor is not all that spectacular and really, a little on the bland side. It is …
