Sweet Factory the World’s Smallest Jawbreakers
Sweet Factory “World’s Smallest Jawbreakers” are my favorite candies. They look just like jawbreakers but are the smallest made anywhere. I have seen them range from about 2mm to about 6mm. I like to chew them instead of suck on them because they are hard but at the same …
MorningStar Mini Corn Dogs
When I began this review it was simply that of Morning Star Mini Corn Dogs. As I got into the review process I found that I could not review Morning Star without comparing it to my old favorite Mini Corn Dogs from Foster Farms.

Great Value: Steamable Broccoli, Cauliflower & Carrots

Tai Pei Chicken Fried Rice
The picture on the box that the Tai Pei Chicken Fried Rice came in sure looked mighty appetizing. Large pieces of chicken, assorted vegetables and white rice all decorated the box. One fourteen point two ounce box cost three dollars, a price that I considered to be okay as …
Tripel Karmeliet, Belgium beer
Living in Belgium has a huge advantage to compensate the high taxes: BEER. There are over 600 types of trappist beers in Belgium but I will talk only about one of them which very fast became my favorite. I have documented a bit about it’s history, and I have …
Old English 800 40oz Malt Liquor
Old English 800 40oz bottles are one of the best Malt Liquor beers I have ever had. This stuff is just great and will get you a good buzz. Now the taste is not the best but it’s not that bad either. For the price of the 40oz …
Relentless Juiced Energy Berry Flavour
As far as energy drinks go, this one is excellent. If I’m tired or need a sudden load of energy for half an hour to a couple of hours, I’ll buy this. I don’t buy energy drinks very often, but when I do, I mostly buy this.

Meijer House Blend Instant Coffee
Many people who are serious coffee devotees shun instant coffee. And for the longest time, I understood why. However, when I purchased this store brand of instant coffee for the first time to use in a recipe, I wasn’t sure what else to do with it besides trying to …
Greenwich Lasagna Supreme
I never liked the fast food chain Greenwich and for the longest time, I felt that their food items were below par compared to the food offerings of other fast food chains. Yes, the food items are very affordable but then the quality of the food is so poor …
MacDonalds Fries
There is no doubt for me that one of the highlights of going to MacDonalds is their fries. I have always loved them and wish they could be readily available at home. I understand that this would probably turn me into a very overweight being, but they are lovely.
It …
Lean Cuisine Salmon with Basil Frozen Entree
I really like this entrée. I continually find that Lean Cuisine has great offerings and knows how to both make typically “unhealthy” meals healthy, and knows how to make healthy meals taste great that might not otherwise would. Their Salmon with Basil Frozen Entrée is an example, in my …

Most of the people do love to eat the potato chips. And just imagine, if these potato chips come with the very tasty spices and if it thick and crispy, wow that will be my favourite. And the name of that favourite of mine is Lays. Lays …
Happy Harvest Canned Spinach
I decided to make chicken last night and, mostly because our supply of vegetables was starting to run a bit low, I ended up making a can of spinach from the brand Happy Harvest that we have had for a while.
I bought this particular brand of spinach because of …
Kroger Value White Bread
I think that the Kroger Value White Bread is a little better than the wheat bread that I also sometimes purchase with the Kroger logo on the packaging. The white bread is fairly light and fluffy and is ideal for toasting, for microwaving, for breakfast, for dinner and more. …
Classic Chocolate Cacao Reserve by Hershey’s Drinking Cocoa
I was surprised by the flavor and aroma offered by Classic Chocolate Cacao Reserve by Hershey’s Drinking Cocoa, and not in a good way. I thought coming from a company like Hershey’s, a company that is known for its chocolate, that this cocoa would be positively delicious. What I …
Pokka Green Tea Jasmine
This is definitely one of my favorite drinks. I used to bought a whole carton of it and store them in my fridge but not anymore due to economical crisis.
Pokka’s tea drinks have also been 100% real brewed, so this is not an exceptional as well. Pokka green tea …
Duinkerken Gluten Free Biscuit Baking Mix

When I first purchased the brand, …

Barbecued Stingray
I love Barbecued Stingray very much! My mom told me that whoever cooks it if not careful, there could be a tinge of smell to it. Therefore, those who cook this type of fish would have to cleanse it purely and well. A good tip that my …
Nido Nestle Powdered Milk
Nido become my favorite powdered milk when Birch Tree milk powdered was out of stock in the market. Second to Birch Tree is Nido. Nido has the taste of fresh cow’s milk. My father includes Nido whenever he is cooking white pasta. The smell of the pasta is like …
Lindt Exra Milk small chocolate
My flatmate brought home a big box of small Swiss chocolate Lindt. We are both bif fans of Lindt chocolate so we immediately started tasting them out. I rarely buy Lindt chocolates because they are very expensive. The fact is that Lindt chocolates are really incredibly good so the …

Skippy Peanut Butter
When it comes to peanut butter, I am very particular about what I choose. I have eaten Skippy brand peanut butter since I can remember. I guess I just took my mother’s lead with it and very rarely tried other brands of Peanut Butter simply because I was used …
Purefoods Corned Beef
First of all, I really like Purefoods Corned Beef amongst every other Corned Beef products here in the Philippines. The taste is very unique because other brands can seem to pick up with the taste of this Corned Beef. This product has been so long in the …
Homemade Flamez Hot Pepper Sauce

Hostess Fruit Pies - Pineapple
Now here is sort of an oddball flavor that you do not see too much of, especially compared with apple and cherry! I find these Hostess Fruit Pies - Pineapple variety to be decent, although still somewhat disappointing. The crust of this pie is just plain blah and boring. …
Blover candy
I have recently purchased Blover love candies for my baby’s birthday.They taste really good. They are sweet and citrus type candies. I purchased 150gm packet and each packet has several love candies inside. Each love candy is packed in an attractive small airtight pack. These chocolates are best items …
Betty Crocker - Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffins

Quaker Instant Oatmeal Maple&Brown Sugar (lower sugar)
Oatmeal is my go-to breakfast: it tastes great (if cooked right), it doesn’t take much time to cook, it’s healthy, it suites most people’s needs (it’s usually vegan, it’s gluten free and I don’t know anybody who’s allergic to oatmeal) and it’s cheap. Seriously, is there a better breakfast option? …
Bermudez Original Crix Crackers
Here in my country, Bermudez Original Crix Crackers have been around for as long as I can remember. Bermudez Original Crix Crackers are fondly called “Vital Supplies” simply because they can be eating with nearly anything. My favourite thing to eat Bermudez Original Crix Crackers is cheese. But you …
Mother’s Iced Lemonade Cookies

Bama (Real) Mayonnaise
I have always been a die-hard Hellman’s mayonnaise fan, but after trying Bama brand mayonnaise, I am hooked. We were shopping at our health food grocery store, EarthFare, and I realized we were out of mayonnaise. EarthFare only sells products with no artificial additives, so when we went to …

Knorr vegetable stock
As I am always in charge in preparing food and dishes at home I find it quite handy to always have a knorr vegetables stock in the kitchen whenever I need it. Since most member of my family are vegetarians (except me unluckily) I have decided to convert …
Pampa Apple Juice Boxes
I was in the mood for some apple juice this morning. Since I don’t have a way to refrigerate something like that at work, I had to buy juice boxes.
I hate buying most brands because they are always geared toward kids and you don’t get enough juice for your …
Skinny Cow Fudge Bars
I am always on the lookout for a bargain, and I am always on the lookout for low calorie snacks! When I visited my local grocery store, and saw Skinny Cow Fudge Bars on sale for only $4Cdn for 7 bars, I bought them.
These bars are sweetened with Splenda …
Lipton Sparkling Green Tea
I have become so bored of plain bottled water and pop lately, and as I seem to be living through the longest heat wave I can remember, I have been looking for refreshing drinks, that are not full of sugar, calories and carbohydrates, and that taste good while keeping …
Delisir Mix Gommose
The first thing that I have to say about this product is that it is cheap but also incredibly good. I like cheap stuff and I usually try out new stuff only because it is cheap, sometimes, actually in most of the cases, cheap stuff are of mush lesser …
Mint Chocolate M&Ms (Christmas Edition)
I went grocery shopping the other day at S&R and saw amongst the extensive displays of chocolate the mint chocolate flavored M&Ms. As it was in a very festive green packaging with a female M&M Santa in the North pole, it caught my eye. Add the fact that …

One of which that I always crave in is the Choco Mucho Milk Chocolate Wafer Roll. …
The Keg Steakhouse and Bar Seasoning Salt
Seasoning salt seems a rather silly thing to get excited about, because in reality, aren’t all seasoning salts made with the same ingredients, and look and taste exactly alike? I thought so too-generally, I tried to always have some on hand, mainly to flavour steaks, hamburgers and even salads, …
Legacy Bakehouse Mix—˜n More Original Recipe Snack Mix
Legacy Bakehouse Mix—˜n More Original Recipe Snack Mix is my second favorite of the snack mixes available from Legacy Bakehouse, ahead of the buffalo variety but behind the garlic variety. This is the original recipe variety, so there is no “main” or “primary” flavor that coats each and every …
Eating Right Rice & Wheat Flakes with Strawberries Cereal
This cereal from Tom Thumb is a little above average, but the quality isn’t high enough to justify the size of the box or the price of the cereal. The size of the box is twelve ounces and the price is almost three dollars. I really like strawberries, so …
Tong Garden Sunflower Kernel with Honey
