Canada Olympic Games 2010 Cookies
Wow, these Olympic Games companies are milking it for all they are worth, aren’t they? I’ve seen T shirts, sweat shirts, jackets, sweat pants, track suits, and now cookies? Really, how are cookies even related to the Games? I got this as a Christmas gift from my boss this …

Sainsbury’s Eric & Friends Fruit Gums
Sainsbury’s Eric & Friends Fruit Gums are basically kids’ sweets, but that doesn’t stop me from eating them sometimes! That goes double as they are really very inexpensive - a 75 gram pack costs just 39 pence, and the supermarket usually offers a “buy three for a pound” deal …
Munch pop choc
Munch pop choc is the new kind of choco snacks, which are introduced in the market recently. I have tasted the Munch chocolates, which had the thick chocolate coating outside, and some lite and crispy wafers inside. And the Munch pop chocs are the kind of chocolates, …
Piesnow FRAN pocky
This type of pocky is one of those icing-type pocky where there’s a thick layer of icing around the biscuit stick. Even though it is piesnow flavor, i personally don’t think it tastes like piesnow at all, but like any other conventional icing-type pocky. You’re not getting what you’re …

Breyers Snickers Caramel Swirl Chunk
Breyers Snickers Caramel Swirl Chunk is a decent ice cream that combines the chocolaty, crunchy traits of a Snickers bar with smooth vanilla ice cream and caramel swirls. I’m sure that I would like this ice cream more if it had more pieces of Snickers candy bars spread throughout …

Two-Bite Brownies
I wasn’t sure about getting Two-Bite Brownies but I had read a few reviews and they sounded pretty positive so when I went shopping at Sam’s Club recently, I took a chance on them. I really love brownies, but baking from scratch is something I used to do …
Oishi Sponge Crunch
The Oishi has a new product in the market and I should say I am like a kid always excited to have a bite of this snack every once in a while. When it comes to snacks and other sort of junk foods, I am always in the know …
Donald Duck Orange Juice
I recently had a coupon for Donald Duck orange juice. I was a little skeptical at first because of the name. I think they could’ve come up with a better name for orange juice other then Donald Duck. I bought the 64 ounce carton size of …
Growers’ Nutribar
If you’re looking for a healthy alternative snack you should try Growers’ Nutribar. It was recommended to me by roommate who is into weight lifting. It looks like an energy bar but cheaper. A bar costs 14 Philippine Pesos (about 28 US cents) and box of six costs 80 …

One day a while back I was shopping at Safeway and needed some bread. None of my usual brands were on sale, and money was so tight that I forced myself to look at other options, one of which was a lesser known brand called Oven Joy. …
Nestle Cluster Banana Nut Cereals
I wanted to have some variety for my breakfast cereals and so I bought different cereals from different brands. This one is a Nestle branded cereal, and it is the Nestle Cluster Banana Nut breakfast cereals. This is relatively cheaper than the Nestle Fitnesse and Fruit variety. I was …
Nescafe Irish Cream Flavored Coffee
I am a big fan of coffee…brewed, instant, espresso, cold hot, as long as it is coffee. Nescafe is a good brand of instant coffee. I love their cappuccino flavored coffee. I can say that there’s no much difference between their instant cappuccino and the one …
Lentil Soup
Progresso soups are a great way for the hungry, health conscious consumer to enjoy a quick meal. One of my favorite Progresso products is their lentil soup. The taste is exquisit with an abundance of lentils, happily swimming in a delicious, thick vegetable stock.

My aunt is constantly sending care packages filled with goodies. This last package contained a new flavor of Pop Tart I had never heard of before, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. I immediately thought of the cookie dough flavored ice cream and was greatly intrigued by this new pastry. No …
Taco Bell Chicken Soft Taco (Canada)
The Taco Bell chicken soft taco (Canadian version) makes for a nice lunch. It contains seasoned chicken, lettuce, tomato, shredded cheddar cheese, and avacado ranch dressing in a white flour tortilla. The flavors are well balanced but maybe a little salty. The avacado ranch dressing is really the star …

I absolutely love this candy. I found this a while a go from an Asian grocery store and decided to try it because to me it looked like one of the appealing preserved food items in the area where it was kept which also had other preserved fruits such …
Labatt’s Honey Lager
I’m not that big of a Labatt’s fan. Generally my beer of choice would be Corona, if I’m gonna drink anything. However, I have to admit that Labatt’s Honey Lager is a delicious beer. And with their no-name competition (Lakeport Honey Lager) being so cheap, it …
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 …

Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice Cajun Style
This is a rice dish with a flavorful bite! There’s much more to this side dish than just white rice, although white rice does make up a major portion of what’s found in this package. I enjoy the flavor of green peppers, and there’s bits and pieces of green …

Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Candy Bar
Sometimes I don’t like change, and I sure hope the Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Candy Bar remains unchanged. I say this because in Fall 2008, the Hershey Company began replacing the very expensive cocoa butter which gives their chocolates that taste we all love and crave with vegetable oil. …
Blue Bunny Doubles Ice Cream Bar Smores
It is a real shame. These Blue Bunny Doubles Ice Cream Bar Smores could have been a pretty tasty treat, but unfortunately, the ball was dropped by Blue Bunny here. The main complaint that I have is the marshmallow flavor is really not that strong. It is actually on …
Lean Cusiene Mac and Cheese
I really love the taste of mac and cheese, but when I’m on a diet, I can’t justify the calories and fat in taditional mac and cheese, so I don’t wat it, Then I discovered this great low fat mac and cheese. I’m not sure exactly what they do …

Goodah! Beef Pares
I just finished eating a bowl of Beef Pares at Goodah! Well it was the first time I tried their Beef Pares. I kind of expected something with more sauce in it, the likes of the Korean beef stew. It was not spicy, but sweet so that is okay …
Hershey’s: Strawberry Syrup
Hershey’s: Strawberry Syrup is a syrup that is alright, but I was a little disappointed with. The strawberry syrup seemed to have a flavor that was not really very authentic. It had a slight artificial flavor to it that I did not like. What strawberry flavor that I did …
Nescafe Cafe Parisien Instant Coffee
Nescafe Cafe Parisien is a gorgeous instant coffee and I think it is my favourite from the Nescafe range. This is supposed to be French coffee, to make us feel as though we are sat outside a Parisien coffee shop watching the world go by. If it …
Post Grape-Nuts
Post Grape-Nuts are the original little crunchy nuggets made by Post. There are several off brands and recipes available both on line and in the market. None of them come even close to the original. In my opinion, Grape-Nuts are one of the best breakfast cereals on …

Lean Cuisine Philly-Style Steak and Cheese Panini
I couldn’t resist trying this frozen panini when I saw it in the supermarket. I’ve never had an actual Philly cheese steak, but I’ve always wanted to try one, and I thought this might be the closest I could come for a while.
This panini takes steak and combines …
Covo Cookies Chocolate
I like chocolate chips cookies, sometimes I make them myself but then I usually make a bunch of them and that means putting some weight on. So although it is much cheaper to make them than to buy them I started buying them. For 1E I can make at …
Nasi Lemak (Coconut Milk Rice)
If you are someone that have traveled extensively across Southeast Asia, and been to Singapore and Malaysia, you must have either taste Nasi Lemak (Coconut Milk Rice) or heard of it before a lot of times. We are talking about food galore here and Nasi Lemak, or also known …
Jell-o Gelatin - Strawberry Daquiri
Jell-o Gelatin - Strawberry Daquiri is part of a failed line - in my opinion - of gelatin desserts that try to take a popular adult beverage and transform that beverage into a gelatin treat that retains the flavor of the drink while making it acceptable for all ages. …
Krusteaz Blueberry Complete Pancake Mix
Krusteaz Blueberry Complete Pancake Mix is great! I am not a fan of restaurant pancakes and have always made them from scratch so they always end up being a week-end treat. With Krusteaz Blueberry Complete Pancake Mix I can make them quick and easy …
Healthy Kitchen Experience
I was curious how vegan restaurants started to sprout all across the Metro. I found Healthy Kitchen because their Boca burger is included in the 10 “Must-Try” veggie burgers in Manila and was hailed by PETA as the best tasting veggie burger in their Golden Buns Awards. Sounds interesting …
Old Del Paso Taco Seasoning Mix
I love tacos, but I’ve never really made them at home. It’s just too messy of a process. However, I was recently given a packet of Old Del Paso Taco Seasoning Mix and just had to take advantage of it.
Basically, you brown your hamburger, then stir in …
GreenWise Organic Spring Mix
Boxed lettuce mix is a convenience item for me because I can get a blend of lettuces without the hassle of washing and chopping all that lettuce. I usually just buy my boxed salad at WholeFoods along with the majority of my produce, but they were out of the …
Fudgie Wudgie Fudge
Last December I was shopping at Sam’s Club and there was a sample table set up with some fudge. I’m no dummy so I took the sample and really liked it. I enjoyed it so much I decided to buy a package. The Fudgie Wudgie Fudge …
Jones All Natural Golden Brown Turkey Sausage Patties
I’m very in to buying turkey in place of other meats whenever I can. I don’t eat pork and turkey is much healthier than beef too. I do love a good sausage with my morning breakfast sandwich though and so it was only natural for me to …
Hamburger Helper Philly Cheesesteak flavor mix
Lately, I have been on a bit of a Hamburger Helper mix “kick” after not buying these products for years. I have been working my way through a variety of the different flavors. I decided to try the Philly Cheesesteak flavor because …
Settembrini cookies (Mulino bianco)
Possibly the best cookies from Mulino bianco, the line of baked goods made by Barilla, the famous Italian company —“ and that’s saying something¨!
True to their name, these “September cookies” contain a surprisingly high amount of delicious, moist and not overly sweet fig filling, sitting at the heart of a …
