Uncle Ben’s Sweet & Sour sauce
This sauce has a sweet and sour taste that mixes between them perfectly. It has pieces of crispy vegetables in it pineapple and bamboo shoots. You can use it with pasta, rice but also with meat only and it tastes really great.
I was pretty sceptical when I first saw …
Baileys Coffee Pods - Original and Mocha
So, a coffee pod company has teamed up with Baileys to produce a flavoured coffee pod that is compatible with Nespresso coffee machines. Nespresso compatible coffee pods with a hint of original Irish cream flavour sound delectable, but they are actually a little disappointing in my opinion. I made …
Made In Nature Organic Apricots Dried and Unsulfured
I have the same problem with these organic apricots that I have with the “Sun Maid Mediterranean Apricots”, except the problem is worse! The problem I’m referring to is the occasional poor quality batch, although with these organic apricots, it’s not so occasional! Now these organic apricots are supposed …
Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Sundae Cups
I’ve been buying sundae cups for many years and I’ve purchased different brands of them as well. For the first time, I purchased Sunnyside Farms Chocolate Sundae Cups. Sunnyside Farms is a store brand, and it’s one I’ve never been fond of. Still, every now and …
TUMS Maximum Strength Ultra
TUMS Maximum Strength Ultra are really good. They also have anti acid and vitamin C in them. I feel really good after eating one of these everyday. They really help with heartburn and keep stomach acid under control. If you have problems with heart burn or stomach acid, these TUMS …
Best Choice Orange Blast Flavor Sports Performance Drink
Both of my sons play sports, so we are at some sort of athletic field almost everyday of the week. They do drink a lot of water, but they also enjoy sports drinks. I do not mind buying them because I know they help replace lost electrolytes, but they …
Kirkland coffee
I really enjoy Kirkland coffee. It is great because it comes in a very large 48 oz or 3 pound container. This coffee is a blend of different Columbian coffees and I think it is a good tasting blend that
comes together and is smooth and …
Green Giant Fresh Valley Steamers
We made shredded pork sandwiches for dinner the other night and, to go with them, we decided to make a bag of Green Giant Fresh Valley Steamers vegetables.
The sandwiches were good. The vegetables were actually a bit of a disappointment.
Green Giant used to offer quality when it came to …
Rice A Roni
No matter how hard I try to make my own version of Rice a Roni, it never works! My rice always turns out undercook and never has the flavor that I aime for.
Rice A Roni is an easy alternitive to homemade rich. It has many great flavors …
McCain Sweet Potato Fries
Sweet potato fries is a new concept to me because I’m so used to a sweet potato looking like a baked potato, only orange in color and sweet in taste. These fries offer me the chance to enjoy the great taste of a sweet potato in a new way, …
Pete’s Blueberry Pure Soy Dessert
I have slowly been adding more soy products to my daily diet over the last couple of years but hadn’t progressed to eating soy desserts. One day when I was looking for a new dessert to put with a dinner I was having with a friend, I came across …
Marie Callender’s Chicken Pot Pies 16.5oz Size
I try to cook from scratch, but there will always be a place in my freezer for premade oven bake meals for nights when I’m just not up to it and don’t want to make a mess of the kitchen. Besides, I don’t have the first clue as to …
Great Value Pepperoni and Bacon Pizza Pillows
I know that Pizza Pops are horrible for me. But, they’re also delicious. Delicious and expensive. I usually buy them once every few months because I’m craving the pizza-y goodness that only they can deliver. This month, however, I was on a budget and I happened to be visiting …
Walker’s Steak and Onion Crisp
Visiting the UK brought me many new experiences, including new foods and beverages. I was surprised at just how differently our cultures eat! One thing seems to be universal though, chips. I am referring to what we call potato chips—“ they call them “crisps”
My partner brought …
Flat Earth Baked Veggie Chips Farmland Cheddar
If you are like me, your family enjoys a good snack but you do not want them to eat just any old junk. My husband and children love crackers and chips but most of them are not good for you at all. Even a lot …
Red Gold Tomato Ketchup
Red Gold Tomato Ketchup is available at our United Grocery Outlet Store for .59 cents a bottle. The bottle is 20 ounces and it is a shorter type of bottle which fits better in the door of my refrigerator. Ketchup is one of the condiments in our house that …
Lipton Alps Mint & Eucalyptus tea bags
These tea bags smell absolutely amazing when still in box! I like their pyramid shapes, they are supposed to provide better aroma development because of their shape, that be true or not they still look pretty interesting.
Tea has a decent aroma which is in my opinion just a bit …
Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit
Chick-fil-A Chicken Biscuit is a very tasty breakfast sandwich that alone is not sufficiently filling, but with two, boy am I set until lunch! The biscuit is a buttermilk one that is very soft and flaky and the chicken is tender and crunchy and loaded with flavor! The two …
Milka Chocolate
Milka has been around since 1901, when it was first invented by Philippe Suchard in Neuchâtel, Switzerland. I guess that the old tradition makes Swiss chocolate among the best in the world because I think that when there were no machinery everything was better because it was prepared differenty. …
Naturally Select Tropical Trail Mix
Trail mix isn’t something that I can find reasonably priced, and really, I don’t know if $1.00 for a 7 ounce bag at the “Dollar Tree” is even worth the money, but I do know that I enjoy this tropical mix and that every package I purchase disappears relatively …
Season’s Choice Parmesan, Garlic and Olive Oil Potato Wedges
The Season’s Choice Parmesan, Garlic and Olive Oil Potato Wedges come in a sixteen ounce bag and retail for one dollar and forty-nine cents at ALDI Food Market stores. These potato wedges along with the Season’s Choice Rosemary, Garlic and Olive Oil Potato Wedges are quite enjoyable to have …
So Delicious Original Coconut milk Creamer
So I’ve really been loving So Delicious products, even though I’ve tried just a few yet. Except for the plain coconut yoghurt, maybe it was just a bad batch or something, but the other products, like their Cocowhip and milk were a huge success. This coconut creamer is also amazing. …
Mountain Dew Energy
Considering the popularity of energy drinks such as Red Bull, it should come as no surprise that Mountain Dew is jumping on the energy drink bandwagon. Their offering, Mountain Dew Energy, has this to their advantage: the price. While Red Bull and similar products are all over-priced, …
Nestle Cocoa
I am a chocolate lover as long as I can remember. Nestle Tollhouse Cocoa satisfies that chocolate desire in me. This is a cocoa powder that I have used for baking chocolate cake and drinks. The flavor is strong and may be modified by the amount of teaspoons …
Sunshine Butter Rolls
Do you sometimes find that you don’t feel like having breakfast in the morning? Bread and jam does not appeal to you, and neither does egg and ham. Whenever I feel this way, I will buy Sunshine Butter Rolls.
What I really like about the butter rolls is the rich and …
Lucerne Large Grade AA Eggs
While I admit that I am buy more store brand products these days due to my financial situation, I am still leery of some items from certain departments, including dairy. While I’m essentially forced to buy from Safeway sometimes, I usually stay away from their store brand, which …
Maltesers Instant Hot Chocolate
As I love Maltesers chocolates and enjoy drinking hot chocolate it seemed logical that I should try this product! Its rounded, curvy jar makes it look like a really fun drink, and the picture of the Malteser wearing a halo, above the message “only 99 calories per serving” …
Muddy Waters Cross Roads coffee
When it comes to coffee there is only one type I drink any more. That brand is Muddy Waters Crossroads. It simply has everything going for it and tastes quite unlike anything I have ever tried.
Crossroads is a dark roast, organic coffee that sells for approximately $10 …
Wendy’s New Freschetta Sandwich
Wendy’s has now come out with a Freschetta Sandwich that is really out of this world. I rarely am in the mood for burgers and fries at fast food restaurants, and so usually I try and open myself to their other options that may be slightly more appealing …
Krusteaz Key Lime Bar Mix
Krusteaz Key Lime Bar Mix produces bars that I am not too, too crazy about. I mean, the lime bars are alright, but I probably will not purchase these bars again for a good long while, if ever again. I will say though that there are some definite positives …
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. …
Stride Gum
At 0 grams of sugar, 0% saturated fat and less than 5 calories a piece, Stride gum is the greatest advancements that the culinary world has ever made. It is sugar free and still deliciously sweet. Surprisingly enough, chewing this gum actually makes you feel less hungry …
Tesco Swirly Chocolate Cheesecake Dessert
I am not too keen on the Tesco Swirly Chocolate Cheesecake as it is basically too sweet for me and seems less like cheesecake and more like a vanilla and chocolate mousse on top of a sweet, crumbly biscuit. Apart from the fact that I did not like …
Nestle Koko Crunch (Cereal)
This is one of my kids’ favorite, Nestle Koko Crunch. It comes in chocolate flavor and Nestle Koko Crunch duo (this is their new product), which is the milk and chocolate in one packaging. My kids eat this often as snacks while watching TV or in the …
Bremer Select Italian Style Meatballs
Finding good frozen meatballs isn’t a task that is easily accomplished. Frozen meatballs simply don’t taste as good or come as solid as homemade meatballs. Making meatballs at home though requires time and time is not always something that I have in abundance. Thus, purchasing pre-made frozen meatballs for …
Diet Lipton Citrus Green Tea
During the summer, I find that I tend to drink more than other times during the year. I prefer to drink diet drinks over other beverages or coffee. When a friend gave me a few bottles of Diet Lipton Citrus Green Tea, I was a little skeptical. …
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 …
Mounds,candy bar
I like coconut and I like chocolate, so Mounds are a perfect combination of a candy for me. I have bought some today at Walmart, a pack of 8 individually wrapped bars for only 97 cents. Each bar is a .6 oz little thing, filled with coconut and covered …
TGI Friday’s Tostado Nachos
My review of this appetizer can be summed up in these words —“ what a greasy mess! The only time a dish like this would taste good is if you’re drunk, which I don’t recommend (getting drunk or ordering this dish). I ordered this appetizer because I’m …
Kroger Mild Picante Sauce
When shopping for salsa, I often find that it is more economical to go for the store brand than the national brands. Usually the national brands cost in the area of $2.50 per 16-ounce jar, whereas the store brands are often in the area of $2.00. So to me …
Oreos Double Stuff
I’ve enjoyed eating Oreo cookies for a few years now on occasion. Oreos cookies are made out of a delicious chocolate flavoured biscuit that has a creamy white centre which is super tasty. The cream part in the middle is definitely what makes the cookie, so when …
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Hot
Gordo’s Cheese Dip - Hot variety is, in fact hot! This is a cheese dip that does not go down easy - but I mean that in a good way! When I bite into a chip that has this cheese dip on it, the dip bites back and as …
Milka Cookies & Cream chocolate bar
Milka’s Cookies & Cream version of their Alpine Milk Chocolate is one of a couple of limited edition bars that have recently been on sale in a number of shops in the United Kingdom. They seem to be sold mostly in branches of the Poundland discount shop, although they …
Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns
Simply potatoes shredded hash browns were spotted by me at Albertsons and I got curious about that. If I can make hash browns at home easily, that would be a great thing for me because I eat hash browns from restaurants very often. So I decided to purchase it. …
Amul Dark Chocolate
Its Christmas time and my husband and I decided to buy sweets as gifts to family friends and for our own consumption. It was my first time to buy Amul Dark Chocolate and I can say that I like it. It was not a typical dark chocolate that was …
Digiorno 12″ Rising Crust Spinach and Mushroom
This was a disappointing pizza put out by Digiorno. The spinach topping hardly contributed any flavor to this pizza. Perhaps if more spinach had been used, this pizza would have actually had a real spinach flavor to it rather than a fleeting spinach flavor that did very little for …
Breeks Cafe
I love Breeks Cafe very much indeed. In fact, it is my new found love. I was introduced to this food restaurant in the year 2007, and I think the outlets were first introduced perhaps during that year. It was my friend’s birthday bash, and I was …
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 …
Power Root Per’l Cafe Instant Coffeemix
A couple of months back, I used to drink coffee with ginseng to enhance vitality, especially when you feel lethargic. But I stopped drinking them because I was trying to cut down on grocery expenses. And these packeted coffeemix can be quite expensive.
However, I had a chance to pop …
