Wendy’s - Ultimate Chicken Grill
Wendy’s - Ultimate Chicken Grill is a sandwich that is, admittedly, huge. The large chicken breast will really make your eyes go wide! Unfortunately, I just did not care for this sandwich too much because I am not a great big fan of grilled chicken. I much prefer the …
Stouffer’s Bourbon Steak Tips
Stouffer’s Bourbon Steak Tips is a meal that I do enjoy, although it is a meal that I also feel could be better. The reason I feel that it could be better is because I find the steak tips to be lacking in the flavor that I have come …
Albertson’s Chocolate Sandwich Creme Cookies
Oreo cookies have been around now for several decades. It’s not a complex cookie by any means, yet it’s a very satisfying cookie that can be enjoyed a variety of ways, as the Oreo cookie commercials used to show. Nabisco Oreo cookies sell for over or around three dollars …
Your Best Face (YBF) Defend
I was so lucky when I won a promo during our neighboring supermarket’s anniversary. Although YBF products are quite unfamiliar to me, I gave it a try that it might have some nice results.

Great Value Pecan Rolls
My wife recently bought a box of pecan rolls from the brand Great Value for $1. We weren’t really expecting too much from this product; mostly because of the price and because we don’t really trust our Walmart when it comes to food items, but, I have to admit, …
Ashirwad iodised salt
My mother uses the Ashirwad iodised salt in our house to prepare the food. Actually this salt is iodised, and is very good for the health. Our body needs the proper quantity of iodine every day and that we can get by using the Ashirwad iodised salt. …

My Fruit Rollups
Okay, I may have found a snack that I just don’t understand. I’m too old, I’m sure. That has to be the reason. They say two year olds are often smarter than adults in handling technology. It’s like second nature to them. Well, maybe …

GV sausage patties
I am a bargain shopper, as you might know. I refuse to pay for a name, when products are similar. I also can’t afford to spend the money on a name. If a store brand or generic is an equal quality, and cheaper, count me in. While browsing the …

Another chocolate that became part of my childhood is Nips. Nips are a chocolate-coated tid bits that are small circles from Jack and Jill. One pack cost PHP 13 for 40g. The color coat varies from different colors like red, blue, and green, yellow, black and white. When you …

Primula Cheese and Chives Spread
I have bought Primula cheese spread quite a few times purely out of convenience but I cannot say that I am particularly keen on it. I think it tastes rather processed although it actually contains no artificial flavorings or colorants. It consists of real cheese, skimmed milk, …
Doritos Smokin’ Chedder BBQ
I’m a Dorito fan. I always have been from way back in the day when all you had was the original red bag of Doritos. I moved onto the Cool Ranch in the 80’s and have loved them all since. I even purchase a small red …

We often purchase whipped cream in our house for use on various desserts. I have even caught my oldest son squirting it directly in his mouth from time to time. Regardless, I recently tried a lower priced version of whipped cream in an effort to lower our …

This is a review of the cupcakes and not the cafe or the shop itself.
It was a great thing that during the time that I was craving for some sweets, my sister brought me a nice box of Cupcakes by Sonja. I really have heard about her cupcakes …
Welchs Fruit Snacks Variety Pack
I find these fruit snacks to be fresh and delicious! In this variety pack comes the following flavors: white grape raspberry, grape, white grape peach, strawberry and mixed fruit. That is a very nice variety of fruit flavors, is it not? I especially like how these snacks are made …
Kasugai Muscat Gummy Candy
I’ve always liked the taste of muscats. I’ve never ate a real muscat before, but all the muscat candies I’ve eaten taste amazing. Muscats have this interesting fragrance/taste that’s different from normal grapes. Kasugai gummies are always soft, chewy, and juicy, and they always come in a cute heart …
Kernel Season’s Popcorn seasoning
Hi, there! I buy soooo many foods that I actually don’t need, but you know, I feel like they actaully speak to me at the store, I’m easily lured by bright and promising packages that I think I might actually have a problem. But one positive thing about that addiction …
Cottage Cheese
I decided to try large curd cottage cheese, for a change; we’ve been normally buying small curd, the Great Value version, which our whole family likes. I bought a smaller, 16 oz jar of large curd cheese; just like with the small curd version, it is also available in …
Fiber One Bran Cereal

A bagelful is a burrito-size (and shaped) bagel filled with Philadelphia cream cheese.
In my opinion it’s a great time saving alternative to actually getting out a bagel and spreading cheese on it. It has a nice …
Aunt Jemima Pancakes and Sausage
Aunt Jemima Pancakes and Sausage is merely a decent breakfast meal. It could most certainly be tastier and a higher quality, but as is, it is edible and mildly enjoyable as long as I add a few things to the meal, like scrambled eggs and a bagel. Only then …

Actually I am a chocolate lover. Along with my children even I love to eat a lot of chocolates sitting at home. I try all kind of chocolates, which I find new or interesting in the market. Once I bought the Dairy milk ‘clairs crunch chocolates …
Fanta Bitter Orange
I remember when there was just one Fanta taste, it was an orange one and no other Fanta existed. Today it isn’t so. There are many different Fanta flavours. The other day I saw only one Fanta Flavour was on discount and as for lunch I was having pizza …

I live in a hot tropical country. It is very important to hydrate my body all the time especially during hot summer days. A good beverage to have is Gatorade. It is healthy and not bad for the body unlike sodas. This product has evolved over the years. It …

When I went to the supermarket, I tried to look for other hotcake mix available in the market and I saw that there is this Pillsbury Hotcake mix which is an all in one hotcake mix. I tried it and truly, I was not disappointed. I am a …
Milo Chocolate Drink
I don’t really like chocolate drinks, at least not the hot chocolate drinks for that matter; but I certainly enjoy cold chocolate drinks as a kid, these would usually be the ready to drink milk chocolate drinks in cartons; most of them are readily available in supermarkets or convenient …
Coffee Break 100% Anglo Instant Coffee
Sometimes we are blinded by imperial mentality that we believe the good tasting coffees are from Starbucks, Maxwell or Folger’s. I had this thinking before until I tried Coffee Break. I have an aunt who is based in Saudi Arabia and she sends us stuffs from there. One of the …

I love subs and sandwiches. I always have my mom make them and when she said she found a great sauce that I should try on my subs, I just had to give it a go. I woke up in the morning and saw her making it and I …

Dempster’s 100% Whole Wheat Bread is one of the many breads out there that you can use to make sandwiches.

Panera Chicken Caesar Signature Sandwich
I love passing by Panera. Not only do you smell the aromas of delicious, well-risen bread wafting from the oven, but you warm up to the steam of hot coffee and the aromas of sweet baked goods in the air. It’s a very inviting atmosphere —“ one …

Betty Crocker - Cheddar Broccoli Rice is a delightful side dish that I find quite satisfying in flavor and portion. What I like about this side dish is that the broccoli is pretty fresh and offers an enjoyable flavor. The cheddar goes great with the broccoli and the two …
Bisto Gravy Granules
I will start this review by pointing out that Bisto Gravy Granules do not actually contain meat and so are suitable for vegetarians like me. I deprived myself of gravy with my (vegetarian) bangers and mash for years and years because I assumed that Bisto contained some kind …
Cloverhill Bakery - Blueberry Donuts
Some supermarket grocery stores carry blueberry donuts made by Cloverhill Bakery. If your supermarket does not, do not worry, you are really not missing out on anything all that good. While I will say that the blueberry donuts are tastier than the cherry and strawberry donuts, the donuts still …
Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Cookies & Cream
I maybe have this ice cream once a year. While I do not really find anything wrong with Blue Bunny Premium Ice Cream Cookies & Cream, I simply enjoy other flavors more and there is only so much ice cream that will fit in my freezer! Plus, I can …
