Jimmy Dean Delights Hickory Smoked Turkey Breast Sandwiches
As a person who at times is always on the go, grabbing something quick to eat is important. Sometimes I like to stock up on frozen meals that I can pop in the microwave and wrap in a napkin and go. Jimmy Dean Delights is one of the options …
Cupcake Bites
I have always loved cookie dough bites, the tiny round chocolate covered cookie dough bites that are sold at movie theaters and stores like Wal-Mart. When I came across a box of cupcake bites at a Dollar General in town for only a dollar, I knew that I really …
Hormel Real Crumbled Bacon Bits
Hormel Real Crumbled Bacon Bits is a product I’ve been using for the last few years since it first came out. As always, Hormel is one of my trusted brands, so when they come out with something new that I’m in need of, I’m not hesitant to give …
Chick-fil-A Caesar Cool Wrap
The Caesar Cool Wrap from Chick-fil-A is a menu item that I will not be ordering again for a reason that is really pretty simple: I did not enjoy the wrap very much because I found it to be inferior to the other wraps served at the fast food …
Altoids Dark Chocolate Dipped Mints
Altoids Dark Chocolate Dipped Mints put a tantalizing taste in your mouth. They taste very similar to Andies Chocolate Mints, which I love. I love the New Altoids Darke Chocolate Dipped Mints. The box fits perfectly in your purse or pocket even.
…
Lucky Me Noodles
One of the most easy to cook foods available in the market today are instant noodles. They are easy to prepare and fast to cook. This kind of food is considered a big help for busy people and for those who are in outings. These are always …
Wye River Eastern Shore Style Oyster Stew Soup
Once more, it’s time for another trip to the old figurative lunch pail for a lighter liquid lunch alternative. This time on the docket is Wye River Eastern Shore Style Oyster Stew. Hmm another seafood soup; in my experience that can be a “risky” proposition. So how does …
Dole’s Pre-Packaged Caesar Salad Kit
Dole’s salad kits have been a mainstay in the household I live in for years. I recently bought and ate from Dole’s Caesar Salad kit. Let me tell you! From first bite to last, I was in cesar salad heaven.
The package includes Romaine lettuce, romano and paramesan cheeses, …
Berry Blue Kool Aid Singles
Berry blue Koolaid is probably one of the best drinks every made if you are looking for something inexpensive that kids will love to drink. Also, if you are looking for something to drink that will provide you with at least a week of liquid that you can drink …
Schogetten Trilogia chocolate bars
I am a chocolate afficionada. In fact, I find chocolate to be one of the life’s necessities, a source of important minerals as well as a small joy of every day. Since my resources are, however, highly limited, I have to be picky with my chocolate purchases. A particular …
Keebler Ready Crust
I am very satisfied with the Keebler Ready Crust when I make a homemade pie! This is a graham crust and I feel it definitely enhances the quality of pies that I make. There are a number of reasons that I am happy with this crust, but one of …
Lipton Tea Bags
I once tried a box of tea bags to make my iced tea and I am here to tell you that there is definitely a big difference in the taste of different tea bags. I can often get away with getting the cheaper brands at the grocery store because …
Texas Roadhouse Pulled Pork Sandwich
I don’t know what it is about me but people look at me and think the ideal gift for me is gift cards. I have received gift cards from just about every franchise restaurant out there except MacDonald’s (they don’t offer any). From Subway to Romano’s Macaroni …
Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup
I have always been a chicken noodle fan since childhood. Campbell’s has been my brand of choice because it seemed to taste better than all the rest. For the past couple of years I have been trying to eat healthier and noticed that Campbell’s has a whole line of …
The Co operative Creamy Golden Vegetable Soup
The Co-operative’s own brand ‘Creamy Golden Vegetable Soup’ is my favourite soup at the moment. Although it is very cheap at only about 50 pence per can, I think it is lovely. I usually only buy tomato soup but I wanted to find something a bit more …
Banquet Frozen Dinner Turkey with mashed potatoes and peas
I purchased this frozen dinner, what would have been called a “tv dinner” when I was a kid out of a fit of nostalgia. My husband was out of town and I wanted to relive a taste from my youth. The brand I remember from childhood did …
The Fry Daddy Elite 4 Cup Deep Fryer
If there were no such thing as chicken nuggets, a good percentage of Americans younger than, say, 25 years old would starve. Alright, I realize that it’s a stretch, but I do know that my six year-old daughter would probably eat far less and much less often than …
Orbit Mist
I recently tried the new gum from Orbit called Mist. I love chewing gum. Especially when I am bored. So I have tried almost every gum on the market. I must say that this gum is at the top of …
MorningStar Southwestern Style Veggie Cakes
MorningStar Southwestern Style Veggie Cakes can be purchased for two dollars a pack. For those that are looking to eat healthier, MorningStar is a good brand to look into as the brand offers some nutritious and tasty breakfast, lunch and dinner items. The MorningStar brand allows individuals to enjoy …
Alexia All Natural Panko Breaded Onion Rings
The Alexia All Natural Panko Breaded Onion Rings come in a thirteen point five ounce bag for a little under two dollars and fifty cents. I used to purchase these onion rings semi-regularly before I gave the Season’s Choice Diced Onion Rings a try. Now I purchase those onion …
Crystal Gyser Natural Mineral Water
I started drinking mineral water last year and, quite honestly, it didn’t grab me. I tried a few brands but I never understood the appeal. Then, I found this brand.
Chrystal Geyser is a fine mineral water product that has the added benefit of being flavored. Flavors I’ve tried have …
Rondo C bombons by Cedevita
These were always my favourite bombons. I used to love them when I was little girl and then for a few years I couldn’t find the anywhere so when they came back to shops I was really happy and I started buying them again. Now I don’t buy any …
Belmont: Grape Seed Oil
I am a healthy life worshipper!!!I must admit it. And I lately, since I am living in Chile, I’ve been using grape seed oil for cooking. And I always use this Brand: Belmont. I buy this oil in 1 litre bottle. The price is 2700 Chilean Pesos (around $5-6). …
Glutino Gluten Free Cheddar Crackers
These crackers taste as good, if not better, than regular cheddar crackers. That might seem like a bold statement because gluten free foods often don’t taste the same or as great but in this case, it’s the truth.
The box when purchased contains two silver packages of these crackers. The …
Sam’s Choice Belgian Dark Chocolate
Sam’s Choice Belgian Dark Chocolate, sold at WalMart, comes neatly packaged in a silvery colored box, which makes it look finer than just a regular chocolate bar. It is made with 70% of cocoa, according to the box. The bar itself is rather thin, divided into large (approximately 1 …
Knorr Pasta Sides Cheesy Cheddar
“Cheesy Cheddar” is just another name for macaroni and cheese, in my opinion. That’s essentially all this Pasta Side is. The rotini pasta is simply soaked with a rich, cheddar sauce. That’s all I taste in this pasta side is the cheddar sauce, and it’s a mighty strong sauce …
MTR Badam Feast
I had recently bought MTR Badam Feast, a product of MTR Foods Limited. The main ingredients of this product are sugar, almond, skimmed milkpowder, cardamom and saffron. It is available in the form of powder. We can prepare badam drink with this powder just by adding 2 tsp of …
Nestle Honey Stars
My kids just love eating Nestle Honey Stars for their daily breakfast. Even I as an adult can’t help but eat this wonderful and healthy snack as well. The packaging is nice and labels are easy to understand. It is jampacked with vitamins and minerals that can help my …
Pasta Express
When I saw the Pasta Express on television, I had to get one. My wife and I are constantly eating pasta and, even if all it did was free up a burner on our stove, it was worth the investment.
After using it for the first time, I have a …
Yogi Green Tea Energy
I have been drinking Yogi Green Tea Energy for several months now and I must say I am very satisfied. The price is kind of expensive but this is because the tea contains ginseng. But even at $4.99 it is a very good price for a drink that will give …
Target’s Archer Farms Finely Ground Espresso
I’ve never bought my own espresso before, so this was my first attempt purchasing espresso for my cappuccino maker. I’m really not a fan of Starbucks beans after working there, so I was avoiding Starbucks espresso. The Archer Farms espresso proved to be an excellent alternative for a good …
Sobe Energize Power Fruit Punch
I tried another flavor from the elixir line of Sobe called Energize fruit punch when my neighborhood Kroger was running a sale on them for only eighty cents. Considering I’ve previously tried a previous flavor from this brand I wasn’t too hesitant to grab a bottle.
Personally I’m not …
Vera Mango Suckers
Let me start off by saying that I’m not a big fan of Mexican candy. I’ve tried some in the past and while I like a lot of the chocolate flavored stuff, everything else I usually ignore. There’s a small Mexican booth in one of my local flea markets …
David Sunflower seeds
Sunflower seeds are a delightful snack along with a conduit for nervous energy. There are many brands of sunflower seeds but David is by far the tastier. As a snack David sunflower seeds are perfect because they are not filling. The tasty little seeds won’t ruin your appetite and …
Kellogg’s Live Bright Dark Chocolate Vanilla Bars
These bars are not nearly as nutritious as the box or the advertising claims them to be. There is a significant amount of high fructose corn syrup, sugar and the dangerous trans fat. In terms of calories, there are 150 per bar, which is not incredibly bad, but considering …
Tuna fish in olive oil Sapore Vero
We all know that Rio mare is one of the most advertised tuna fish and it is really good but I really hate paying a lot of money for things that I can get for much cheaper. I know so many people who aren’t very rich but buy only …
Nescafe 3 in 1 Coffee
I cannot live without coffee. I am a coffee drinker and as far as I know, I have tried already different brands of coffee especially if new to my eyes and to my taste. Eversince I started working, drinking coffee becomes my habit and a part of my working …
Marie Callender’s Home-Style Creations - Meatball Lasagna
As I continue to try and find good, convenient meals, Marie Callender’s Home-Style Creations - Meatball Lasagna jumped out at me from the shelf. I love good meatballs, and I’m a pasta fan, so it had all the markings of being an excellent product, especially since Marie Callender …
Little Debbie Texas Cinnamon Rolls
Little Debbie Texas Cinnamon Rolls are really quite delicious and enjoyable! This pastry is really packed with lots of tasty cinnamon and that is one of my most favorite flavors. There is also quite a lot of sugar sprinkled and baked into this cinnamon role and a sweet sugar …
Stewart’s Root Beer Soda
Stewart’s Root Beer Soda is a beverage I first tried just this last year, in 2008. It’s a costly item, so it’s something I only purchase when on sale, and then only occasionally. Where I live, on sale it’s $3.00 for four bottles, so it’s definitely premium …
Keebler Fudge Shoppe Peanut Butter Sticks
I’m beginning to feel like my mother. I used to always get on her case because she’d go shopping and come home with the wrong thing, not intentionally but because she’d reach for one thing and end up pulling something else off the shelf. I guess it’s …
Ferrero Rocher Chocolate Truffles
Unfortunately, this Valentines Day I have no one to call my own, and no money to buy any chocolate truffles or candy hearts of my own, and so I decided to take two of my brother’s chocolate truffles to make myself feel a little better. They’re of the brand …
Kikkoman Plum Sauce
My family loves chicken strips, and I wanted a good dipping sauce to accent the chicken strips for dinner. I wanted to find something special and new to make dinnertime a little more fun. And Kikkoman makes an attractive looking plum sauce, well on the grocery shelf anyway. So …
Maruchan Instant Shrimp Lunch
Anyone who has attended college know the golden rules of survival: Know someone who crouch you may need to crash on; know someone with a washer and dryer; and purchase the thirty-five cent noodles to feast on.
I had been aware of the shrimp noodles in the pack, but I …
Cafe W Honey Barbecue Wings
My wife decided she wanted to make spaghetti last night and, because we didn’t have half the ingredients we needed, I found myself running up to Walgreens shortly after getting home from work.
While there, I thought an appetizer would be a smart buy (I was starving at the time) …
International Delight Iced Coffee: Caramel Macchiato
International delight has another iced coffee flavor I decided to try this time around. This flavor was Caramel Macchiato. Now I had previously tried the Mocha version of this Iced coffee, and liked it very well. I figured that I would like this one too.
What I like about …
Goldcrest Artichoke Bottoms
Fresh artichokes are often expensive and what’s worse, it is a seasonal vegetable which you can only find when it is in “season”. When my husband asks for artichokes, I buy the Goldcrest Artichoke Bottoms which are in cans. The can is very practical to have as you don’t …
Nissin Chocolate Wafer
Wafer lovers should try Nissin Chocolate Wafer. It’s a local brand here in the Philippines but for me it’s one of the best. The reason I like it is because the taste is just right. It’s sweet but not too sweet. It’s in small packages so it remains crispy …
Cadbury’s Dairy Milk Bubbly
I am something of a chocoholic - I love all things chocolatey, from cakes to bars and everything in between. Yet my concerns about a fair trade for developing world producers (where most cocoa is grown) and worries about forced child labour has led me to try to focus …
