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 …
Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips
One of the reasons that I do not feel as guilty about eating chicken at Chick-fil-A is because they use refined peanut oil to cook their chicken products. That is definitely a healthier way to prepare fried chicken! The Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips are no exception, and they too are prepared …
Mrs. Butterworth’s: Original Syrup
Mrs. Butterworth’s: Original Syrup is just about the most flavorful and rich syrup that I have ever tried, although I think Log Cabin, at times, alternates with this brand for my most favorite syrup. Both have a deep, rich flavor to them and both are a fairly thick syrup. …

Knorr Italian Sides Scampi
This is a delicious Italian Side from Knorr! It’s got this very rich sauce that has a great triple flavor to it: the sauce has a mixture of lemon, garlic and butter! Each of the three flavors really stand out and complement one another pretty well. The garlic seasoning …
Arnott’s Shapes
A large, 300-gram bag of Arnott’s Shapes was given to me by a friend recently. It was the first time I saw and tasted this product as it has never really been available in the grocery stores I frequent: Shopwise and Waltermart, both in Makati City.
Arnott’s Shapes is …
Electric Reindeer wine
I buy a certain type of wine each holiday season. The wine is called Electric Reindeer. I buy this at World Market. They have different types of the Electric Reindeer variety. There is a White Zinfandel, Merlot, Shiraz and I believe also a cabnernet.It is a versatile brand.

Mott’s Natural Apple Sauce - Six pack
Actually, when you look at the label for this food product, it says Mott’s Natural Apple Sauce & Vitamin C. I like to call it a more simple “apple sauce.”
For me, apple sauce goes back to my childhood and one set of my grandparents. When visiting them, …

Mrs. Freshley’s Winter: Holiday Powdered Mini Donuts
Although there is really nothing all that spectacular about Mrs. Freshley’s Winter: Holiday Powdered Mini Donuts, I nonetheless find them to be a satisfying and delectable snack to have around the winter season. There is nothing holiday or winter-like about these donuts, aside from the decorative box. The donuts …
Tokyo Tokyo’s Fried Chicken Karaage Sumo Remix
I really love Japanese foods. I really appreciate them.. but to tell you honestly, I am not a big fan of Tokyo Tokyo. Why? Well, for me it is over priced, and I don’t like their California maki.. It doesn’t taste nor look fresh at all. So I rather …
Rocklea Chocolate (Milk Chocolate Rocklea Road)

Kellogg’s Froot Loops Cereal

Kelloggs Special K Honey Clusters

Taurus Cider
Sold exclusively in ALDI stores, this dry cider is a surprisingly pleasant alternative to more expensive brand name competitors out on the market.
Similar in taste to most of the more well known dry ciders such as Strongbow, this particular brand is certainly refreshing enough with a decent flavour, …
Crystal Light Raspberry Ice drink mix
We bought these in the new individual sized servings, where you just take the small tube and pour the powder into a glass of water.

Albertsons’ Crab Cakes
For as long as I can remember I’ve been buying Albertsons’ crab cakes since they started putting them out. I like their crab cakes because they are not manufactured or prepackaged, but because they are freshly hand made daily and precooked.
What first attracted me to Albertsons’ crab cakes was …
McCormick California Style Garlic Powder
Anything garlic is normally a winner with me, but I’m not a big fan of McCormick California Style Garlic Powder. This garlic powder comes with parsley and contains no MSG.
Packaging-wise, the plastic container is adequate with a colorful wrapper that drew my attention. It has a big …

Dove Milk Chocolate
I’ve never been a big fan of Dove Chocolates, mainly because they tend to be expensive and for no good reason that I can see. I’ve never ate the ice cream or tried any of their candies until this last week. I was standing in line at the grocery …
Doritos Nacho Cheese Flavored Tortilla Chips 16 oz (1lb)

Breyers Cookies & Cream Oreo
I was disappointed with Breyers Cookies & Cream Oreo ice cream. What dragged this ice cream down in my eyes was the lack of Oreo cookie pieces. I didn’t think the ice cream contained enough pieces of Oreo cookie to justify the price tag of nearly three dollars and …
