Nescafe Creme (instant coffee, granulated)
Among coffee lovers, there is a secret rift seldom talked about: the “great divide” between those who swear by traditionally brewed coffee and those who actually prefer instant coffee. I am one of these. To me, nothing beats a good instant coffee.
However, I am very picky about instant coffee. …
Skippy SuperChunk Peanut Butter
My roommate and I make eye-contact. We both know what’s up. Our gaze shifts to that jar with iconic blue lid that I just pulled out of a shopping bag. “SUPERCHUNK!!”
Now, I’m going to start off by saying that for most of my life, I have …
McDonald’s Hot Chocolate
This hot chocolate is definently one of my favorites out there to get for a warm winter treat, it is actually a little bit better then Starbuck’s hot chocolate in my opinion. They offer you either kind of milk- Skim or regular and I have tasted it with either …
Aunt Jemima Scrambled Eggs and Sausage Breakfast
For a while, Aunt Jemima Scrambled Eggs and Sausage Breakfast was my favorite frozen breakfast meal, but then Jimmy Dean came along with some great morning frozen foods, and I have to give the nod to them.
Still, I continue to purchase some of the Aunt Jemima products off and …
Hebrew National Beef Franks
Hebrew National Beef Franks have been around for a long time, but I’ve never tried them until recently. Frankly (not to be pun-ful here), I really prefer not to think about what is in a hot dog. I know it’s not the best stuff, but like the …

“5 a day” is what Fruit Magic have for their advertisement. It sticks to the mind like a glue, that we have to eat or drink fruits and veggies everyday to be healthy. Well I used to really enjoy an order from Fruit Magic. I really believe that they …
Folger’s Classic Roast Instant Coffee
I am not a serious drinker of coffee. But over the years, I have developed quite the nose for both good (and bad) coffee. At work, the coffee is pretty good. But I have found that I prefer bringing my own instant coffee. I recently …
Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain Cereal Bars Variety Pack
This is a decent variety pack with two tasty flavors, but unfortunately the flavors are not evenly split for some peculiar reason. There are thirty-two strawberry bars but just sixteen apple-cinnamon bars. I wish that the variety pack was an even split down the middle, but oh well. I …
Carvel Ice Cream Cake
Something that we usually get for everyones birthday in my family is a Carvel Brand Ice cream cake. It’s been a tradition for over 10 years and my family just loves the cakes that they make. I’m not a big fan of ice cream and I only eat …

If you ever try donuts from J-Co, you will probably remember the taste for the rest of your life. I mean, it’s really delicious. Really! I ate so many donuts already, but J-Co donuts is the best.

Safeway Select Bottled Water
I dehydrate so easily, that I need to have water with me most of the time. I drink it in the bottled water one buys at the store, as most of we bottled water drinkers do. I have discovered that by buying Select Bottled Water, Safeway’s own brand, I …

Hamburger Helper Cheeseburger Macaroni
Honestly, you really don’t need the hamburger helper to make this kind of food. All you really need is to buy some macaroni from the store and the beef. The only thing missing is the seasoning, so that’s how they get you to buy the hamburger helpful. But this …

This 220 gram box contains elbow macaroni and a dry …
Dad’s Oatmeal Chocolate Chip 37.5 g Cookies/Biscuits
I tried this for the first time. I never knew that these delicious cookies have been around since 1929. The package only contains two cookies, but I found them quite satisfying, indeed.
I just can’t resist cookies with oatmeal in them. Maybe because I’ve always loved having …
Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix

Envidia Green Tea Apple Flavor
I am starting to be a health freak. I monitor the nutritional facts of the foods I take in. Envidia Green Tea caught my attention by their commercial with the catchy line “One Two Zero”. One for having EGCG (Epigallocathecin Gallate), two for two times power of L-Carnitine and …
Marie Callender’s Country Fried Pork Chop
With all the frozen varieties of Marie Callender’s that I’ve purchased over the years, I have never chosen one that has a pork chop in it. I love pork chops, but for some reason, I haven’t purchased them in any frozen capacity. However, I’ve been doing a …
Nescafe Partners Blend Instant Coffee
Nescafe Partners Blend Instant Coffee is a decent instant coffee with a very smooth taste, but for me it just lacks in something. I am not sure if I am saying that it lacks in body or in strength, but for me, even if I put a really …
