Nescafe Taster’s Choice Decaffeinated Gourmet Instant Coffee
I’m probably a rarity in that I actually like instant coffee. I don’t have a coffee maker, so if I want coffee I have to use instant. I think that non-instant coffee is certainly better than instant, but in a pinch instant will definitely do.
I liked that this instant …
Silk Low Fat Soy
After the purchsae of my espresso machine Ive started drinking a great deal of soy milk. This silk low fat soy is one of the best soys i tried so far as far as foaming milk. I always get a lot of grea foam with this milk, …
Milka Tripple Choco Cocoa, chocolate bar
New Milka product is always a thrill for me so imagine how happy I was when I saw that two new types of Milka chocolate bars were out. I like the original milk Milka chocolate because it is delicious and it is not too sweet for my taste, so every …
Owl Teh Tarik Instant Hand Pulled Milk Tea
I am not a big fan of teas. However, when I went climbing in Nepal, I was always served milk tea which I grew to love. I asked once how it was done, and I was treated to a complicated discussion on how to make one. I accepted the …
Smart Balance Omega Peanut Butter
I am an avid bargain hunter. I love shopping at dollar stores (and almost a dollar stores) to see what I can find. I also love chunky or crunchy peanut butter. I’ll eat it on buttered toast for breakfast or have the occasional PBJ sandwich. …
Hostess Limited Edition Donettes Pumpkin Spice Mini Donuts
Hostess has really gone all out this autumn in producing pumpkin-flavored snacks and I can’t recall the company ever giving so many of its year-round snack cakes and treats a limited time pumpkin make-over. I’m not complaining though; the more foods pumped with pumpkin spice goodness, the better, for …
Britania fruit cake
How many of u love to eat the very soft, tasty and delicious cakes. Naturally most of u must be saying yes. Yes even we all love it. But I am very choosy about my food and I choose to eat the Britania fruitcake always to …
Mama Cozzi’s Pizza
One of the truly outstanding values that is available at your Aldi food store is Mama Cozzi’s Pizza. The cost for one of these 16 inch pizzas is about six dollars. You would be hard pressed to find a similar size pizza for that price to be perfectly …
Kellog’s Nutrigrain Cereal Bar (Blueberry)
I had often heard of the Kellog’s Nutrigrain Cereal Bar from advertisements, but never had the chance to try it until recently even though I really wanted to. This was mostly because the places where I had seen it being sold, were selling it at a very expensive price …

Green Giants Broccoli and Carrots with Italian Dressing
When it involves cooking I like to incorporate vegetables into my meals, but I don’t necessarily know what type of cooking methods to use that don’t involve instruction on the back of a box. On one of my many shopping excursions, I noticed Green Giants had these little vegetable …
Del Monte Whole Kernel Corn
I love adding Del Monte Whole Kernel Corn in fruit salad. Actually I only learned this from my Boss. I did not know actually that whole kernel corn could be added to fruit salad but when I tasted I was impressed how it could enhance the taste of fruit …
Jack Burger at the J Grill
The Grill, an extension of the “J” cafeteria at Humboldt State University, serves hamburgers five nights a week. They don’t make a burger until you order it, so it is always fresh.
The Jack burger is $1.25 with a meal plan or $3.75 if you are paying with cash. …
Special K Cereal Bars
Special K Cereal Bars are part of Special K’s effort to promote itself as “healthy”. They are portion controlled snack bars at 90 calories per bar, designed so that it’s easier to control your snacking. However, they taste so bad I wonder why anyone would want to have more …
Chocolate Fire Chocolate Shop
Chocolate Fire is a chocolate shop from Melbourne, which had been brought to the Philippines. I have heard a lot of positive things about the place, so I decided to try it out with my two friends. Although it’s not located in a very visible place, it’s …
Moon Cafe’s Beef Burrito
I went to the Limketkai mall in Cagayan to stroll and have lunch with my husband. I was looking for a Mexican infusion cuisine. I saw the Moon Restaurant on the Ground Floor of the Limketkai Mall. There are different Mexican dishes to choose from, but I chose their …
Dennison’s Chili
I was a cook for hundreds of people, and made excellent chili. The closest product available in stores seems to be Stagg’s Chili (a good one), followed by Hormel. I have also tried a few others. Unfortunately, I tried Dennison’s Chili, as well. My advice - DON’T. It’s pasty, …
Beefsteak tomatoes
I am the first to admit that I am not the world’s greatest gardener, but usually I am able to grow pretty good tomatoes. The one exception is the beefsteak variety. Even the brand of beefsteak tomatoes seems to make little difference. The tomatoes plants do fine and even …
Mountain Dew
I have always seen Mountain Dew advertisements on the television with it’s catch slogan “Do the Dew” I never thought much of it or even thought about trying it, till recently.
My dad bought a bottle of what he and his friends fondly call “Dragon Blood” because of it’s green …
Snyder’s of Hanover Honey Mustard & Onion Pretzel Pieces
I love Rold Gold Honey Mustard pretzels but I have been having a difficult time finding it around. I always just see the original flavor which I do not feel like buying. That is why when I saw the Snyder’s of Hanover Honey Mustard and Onion Pretzel …
Spicy and Sweet Chicken Burger
I just finished my lunch today. I had a fast food ready to eat meal served in 7-Eleven stores. It’s called a rice meal; I tried it out because it looks yummy and because they are introducing a new flavor (Sweet and Spicy Chicken Burger), if I may say …
Hot Pockets
I came home for lunch today not really knowing what I was going to eat. I was glad my wife remembered we had a box of Hot Pockets in our freezer.
Even though several companies have tried to copy Hot Pockets, they don’t even come close to both the taste …
Nature Valley Blueberry Yogurt Granola Bar
I didn’t know that Nature Valley had this flavour of granola bar until recently when I saw it in supermarket I had gone to. Instead, I would usually see some of the small retailers I had gone to selling flavours like “Oats and Honey”, “Peanut Butter” and “Maple Brown …
Vitasoy Melon-Flavoured Soy Drink
I wan on my way to work, but really needed a small snack. I have been rather dehydrated these days. So I grabbed a bun and searched for a drink in the refrigerator of 7-Eleven store.
I thought that I lacked calcium, so I took a soy drink. The vitasoy …
Brookside Milk Chocolate Covered Almonds
The best sweet based on my impartial judgment is chocolate; and what is the best way to have it? Chocolate given for free is really is a sweet gift to receive. Brookside Milk Chocolate Covered Almonds were given by a relative, who came home from overseas, after many years …
Arizona Vitamin C Fortified Kiwi Strawberry drink
Arizona Vitamin C Fortified Kiwi Strawberry drink did not do much to tantalize my taste buds. It comes in a cute can decorated with pictures of colorful strawberries and kiwi fruits. For only 99 cents, it is a really good deal volume wise, and it is made …
Fantastic Delites, Sweet Chilli and Sour Cream
I had to rush out and buy this packet of Fantastic Delites today when I went grocery shopping. I first tried these deliecious rice snacks when I hired the movie Juno the other night from Blockbuster. They had a special promotion hire the movie and receive a free packet …
Bake House Halloween Cinnamon Rolls
How does one take a cinnamon roll and give it a Halloween twist? By throwing on some chocolate frosting, of course. Apparently, that’s how Bake House, the company behind these Halloween-themed cinnamon rolls, thinks, because the Bake House Halloween Cinnamon Rolls are no different from the cinnamon rolls that …
Gardenia Whole-grain Bread
I never really liked whole-wheat bread despite its nutritional benefits. I don’t like its quite bitter taste and its coarse fibers. It also smells quite off. Well indeed white bread which is made of refined flour tastes and smells better but the problem is it is not at …
Amy’s Brown Rice and Vegetables Teriyaki Bowls
I bought Amy’s Organic Brown Rice and Vegetable Teriyaki Bowls on sale at my local Kroger grocery store for $3.44. The container is approximately ten ounces in size, more than enough for a hearty lunch for one person. I was drawn to the product because it is made …
On the Go Bistro Macaroni & Cheese
Life is too short to cook from scratch, and with great products available like On the Go Bistro Macaroni & Cheese, you don’t have to!
I was on the hunt for a macaroni and cheese that rivaled Stouffer’s. I had only one requirement…no boiling water! …
MITR PHOL Natural Granulated Sugar 2 kg
MITR PHOL natural granulated sugar is my first choice when it comes to white sugar. It comes in a transparent, yet durable packaging. To me, it’s very important that the packaging for sugar is good.
After all, I’d tried buying other sugar brands in the supermarket, and I’d …
Food Club Stuffing Mix
My wife and I decided to make a couple turkey legs we had in our freezer the other night and, since turkey just isn’t the same without stuffing, I ran to the store to pick up some stuffing mix.
I didn’t have much of a selection at the store I …
Summit Zeor Cal
I did not really enjoy much drinking the new Zero Cal sparkling water from Summit. Well, one, a tasteless soda water is senseless. Second, the water is crystal clear, but it is flavored and the flavor just seemed to make the drink all the worse. It did not help …
Triple Leaf Tea White Tea
I am a regular drinker of Triple Leaf Tea White Tea. I truly love their brand of White Tea. This tea has helped me in my health life so much. It was once used and drank by Royalty and China. So why would you not drink it? Now a lot …
Old Orchard Healthy Balance Juices
If you live with a diabetic like I do you know that sugar and carbs are difficult to stay away from. These juices are sweetened with Splenda therefore they contain 75% less sugar and what sugars they do have is from the fruit itself. These juices also all under …
Pepperidge Farm Texas Toast Five Cheese
I don’t care what brand I try, be it Pepperidge Farm, New York Style, Mama Cozzi’s, whatever, they all offer a five cheese Texas Toast and they all stink. When something reads “Five Cheese”, I personally think I’m in for something that’s going to be super cheesy, rich in …
Dreyer’s Rocky Road ice cream
Dreyer’s Rocky Road ice cream is more like a chocolate ice cream. The flavor is predominantly chocolate but it is not dark chocolate that Dreyer’s used in here. This is in fact once thing I liked because Rocky Road becomes more delicious by this lighter dark chocolate variety. The …
La Fonte Bolognese Sauce
My family love pasta and they like to eat Bolognese pasta. And when I made my own Bolognese, I could not make it with the taste that we normally made in Europe. Maybe the tomatoes that we get here are not the same tomatoes that they have in Europe. …
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 …
Ackee and Saltfish
“Ackee and Saltfish” is my country’s national dish. I am unsure of it being like any other dish in other countries hence I think it is unique to only my country. I was told that the ackee fruit originated from West Africa in the days when Africans were brought …
Del Monte Fruit Chillers Sorbet Polar Raspberry
Like all of Del Monte’s other Fruit Chillers, this Fruit Chiller sorbet is positively loaded with Vitamin C and absolutely jam-packed with all natural fruit flavor. In this case, raspberry. This sorbet, for me, is more delicious and pleasant than eating regular raspberries or raspberry-filled foods. It has to …
So Delicious Coconutmilk Butter Pecan ice-cream (No sugar added)
I love the ice-cream and I’ve tried all kinds of it: regular cream-based, low-calorie, low-sugar, low-carb, low-fat, vegan. But never have I tried vegan ice-cream with no sugar in it. This one looked interesting to me since that seems to be the only low-sugar vegan ice-cream. I picked the “Butter …
Family Pantry Toaster Pastries
We bought a box of toaster pastries from the brand Family Pantry the other day and have been having them for breakfast the past two days. I have to say, they are some of the crappiest toaster pastries we have ever had.
These, of course, are a generic version of …
Oscar Mayer Hearty Thick Cut Bacon
I’ve often said Hormel is my favorite food brand for bacon, and that’s still true, though I do use Oscar Mayer from time to time. Recently, in fact, I saw Oscar Mayer Hearty Thick Cut Bacon on sale and purchased a couple of packages.
While Hormel adds some zest …
Foster Farms Southwestern Chicken Breast Strips
Another something new I’ve tried recently are Foster Farms Southwestern Chicken Breast Strips. Foster Farms is a trusted name for chicken and the price was right for experimenting. I loved the package, which allowed me to see the chicken I was purchasing and which was also a …
Maruchan Ramen Noodle Soup Single Pack Shrimp Flavor
I remember when ramen noodles were referred to a poor’s man meal because only poor people and college students would eat it, and I know I had my college apartment filled to the max with them. They were cheap and good and to this day I still like to eat …
Arby’s Deluxe JR. Sandwich
I love Arby’s and yesterday I finally got a chance to try their new Deluxe Jr. Sandwich. I had seen the ads on TV and I was thrilled that they finally jumped on the “value menu” wagon and had a special sandwich—“ and it even had lettuce and …
