Kellogg’s Special K Protein Meal Bars, Chocolate Peanut

Original Peppermint Bark Candy from Hallmark Confections
Nothing says “the holidays” like family and friends gathered together, snacking on sweets.

So, along with making her delicious …

Mango Sorbet
Mango is one of my favorite flavors and I even love the fake mango flavor used in candy that doesn’t usually taste anything like the real fruit. New Zealand Ice Cream is kind of hit or miss with me, while some of their flavors are worth the inflated price …
Kiki fruit toffee

Baja Cafe: Mild Salsa

Cap’n Crunch cereal
I bought this Cap’n Crunch cereal on sale. This 350gram box of cereal boasts that it contains ‘O trans fat’, which I thought was a redeeming quality. The other thing I like was that this cereal contains no white flour, they make it with corn flour and oat flour.
There’s …
Pop-Tarts Splitz
