Bud Light Lime
The marketing department at Bud Light did a great job marketing the company’s new product, Bud Light Lime. Although in my opinion, this concept is hardly unique or new, given the popularity of certain Mexican beers served with real lime, the hype about this product was big and wide-spread …
Nakd Wildly Different Apple Pie Muesli Bar

Kraft Amooza Twist Cheese String
Kraft Amooza Twist Cheese String has just become my daughter’s new favourite cheese snack lately. Before we saw Amooza twist’s first appearance in No Frills, we always picked Black Diamond cheese string and fun cheese, which was a bit pricy.
The first time we spotted Amooza Twist in No …

Mama Cozzi Three Meat French Bread Pizza
Pizza in general is one those foods that is both comforting and a guilty pleasure all in one. It’s quick and easy to prepare, and everyone is capable of fixing their own plate which is what I like best about pizza–it’s self-serving.

New York Style - Baked Bagel Chips Garlic

New Morning Honey Grahams
These graham crackers are utterly terrible. They are made with organic grains (as differentiaed from being completely organic), and they are slightly sweet and graham cracker shaped with proper perforations, but they do not taste like graham crackers let alone very good.

Blue Bunny Double Strawberry Sedona Frozen Yogurt Granola Sandwiches
