Gilbey’s Premium Strength with Green Tea Extract
My boyfriend excitedly told me that there was a new drink released by Gilbey’s that doesn’t taste like beer, and he thinks I should try it, since he knows really well that I hate beers. He described the bottle to me, and when I went to the Liquor store …
Anchor brand Mackerel
Tinned food never has developed very much in India, only few items are available and most of them doesn’t last more than 2-3 months. It’s slowly catching pace but sure will take time for thing to start really rolling. Keeping this in mind Anchor brand mackerel tinned in fresh …
Cadbury Old Gold Dark Chocolate
Cadbury Old Gold Dark Chocolate according to one promotion that I read in the internet is smooth, rich, dark chocolate that’s worth its weight in gold. Just the mere reading of that line made my mouth watery. So the next time I shop I made it a point …

Yesterday I tried Rolly Pop lolly pop with the raspberry taste and I must say that I was really nice surprised because it tasted like real raspberry so today I wanted to try some other tastes. There are 2 more tastes, strawberry and peach. Actually those were the only …
Pringles Original Chips - 0.81-Ounce Units
I really do not recommend purchasing these units no matter when you plan on using them, be it on the go, work, picnic or anything. The reason I do not recommend these units is because they are a bit too pricey for the amount of chips that comes in …
Haagen-Dazs Mango Sorbet
I love sorbet. It’s one of my favorites. I think I like it because it tends to offer intense flavors that I find really enjoyable. I like to eat them all by themselves or alongside other items. When it comes to fruits, mango is also one of my favorites …
SoBe LifeWater
I wasn’t sure how much I was going to like Sobe Lifewater, because every merchandiser delcares they’ve invented the next best thing since sliced bread. But I have to say, it’s actually pretty good. There’s some good and bad with it, as there is with everything.
First the …
Freschetta Thin Crust Chicken & Spinach Pizza
I mentioned in an earlier review that we bought a couple of pizzas from the Freschetta brand. I was unhappy with the first pizza, a so-called 10-topping pizza, but hoped I would enjoy the unique flavor of the other pizza we bought; a chicken and spinach pizza.
I was wrong …
Juicy Juice Apple Juice Drink Boxes
I’m making a serious effort to cut back on the amount of soda I drink at work. My weight ballooned up over the holidays and I figure that’s one of the fastest ways to cut calories.

Teavana teas: Cacao Mint Black Tea
Recently, I was very fortunate to come across a website which sells a wide range of loose leaf teas: Teavana.com. While I have only known of them for a short amount of time, I have had the pleasure of trying out a particularly pleasing tea of theirs: …
Stouffer’s Macaroni & Beef
I found Stouffer’s Macaroni & Beef to be a relatively decent meal, although certainly nothing spectacular or overly memorable. I am not even sure that I will be purchasing it a second time, actually. One of the reasons I am not sure is because this meal is really not …
Spice Island East and West Indian Groceries
Whenever I spend any time in a new city, we immediately start sourcing ethnic markets and groceries because my husband cooks many styles of food; we are always needing exotic and non-traditional ingredients not readily found in traditional grocery stores. In Edmonton, Alberta, we found Italian, Asian and …
Gatorate Thirst Quencher in Twist Top Bottle
I prefer to purchase Gatorade Thirst Quencher specifically in the 24 ounce twist top bottles. The regular bottles with the removable caps are more difficult for my small children to manage. In addition they are not so easily re-usable and tend to make a lot of mess. …
Michelina’s Manicotti
I often times have dinner alone, as my husband works second shift half of the week, and doesn’t get home until around mid night. I try to wait on him, but I get hungry around seven in the evening, and it is torture trying to wait five more hours …
Vanilla Coke
I like most of Coke products and I like vanilla, so when Vanilla Coke was announced I couldn’t wait to try it. I thought the taste was going to be divine. However, when I had bought my first little bottle, I was disappointed. I don’t think I ever bought …

Mrs. Freshley’s Crunch Mini Donuts
I find Mrs. Freshley’s Crunch Mini Donuts to be pretty bland, although I really am having a hard time determining if these or the chocolate variety are more dull in taste. The coconut flavor is not all that spectacular and really, a little on the bland side. It is …
Kopiko 3-In-One Instant Coffee
My review today is all about Kopiko 3-In-One Instant Coffee. I drink this brand of coffee sometimes especially when my favorite brand of coffee is not available in the store nearest to my place. This coffee can be purchased in plastic packs and even in smaller sachets. I usually …
Glaceu’s Vitamin Water
Lately I have gotten pretty addicted to Glaceau’s vitamin water. There are a variety of different flavors of water that all have different mixes of vitamins in them. The waters themselves taste like Kool-Aid; they’re sweet and have a light flavor to them without being overpowering.
I really feel like …
Yusaka Japanese Rice Vinegar
It’s too expensive to eat Sushi from the restaurant so often here. That’s why I tried few times to make my own sushi dishes in the house. I browsed on the Internet about how to make sushi,and I bought Yusaka Japanese Rice Vinegar because I need to use rice …
Alvita Caffeine Free Roasted Dandelion Root Tea Bags
When we got the Alvita Dandelion Root Tea Bags a little over two months ago from a relative, I was not very excited to try it since I did not get the impression that roasted dandelion root would make a good tea. In fact, the box sat in our …

Great Value Fig Bars
The Great Value Fig Bars can be an addicting treat, but just because the bars are made with real fruit, doesn’t mean it’s safer to overindulge. While these fig bars might not be as loaded with sugar and artificial ingredients as some of the other stuff down the cookie …

Smucker’s Caramel Magic Shell
I remember when I first saw Smucker’s Magic Shell. They had not yet have a Caramel flavour, but that was to soon change and I was so delighted when I saw Smucker’s Caramel Magic Shell Topping sitting there on the shelf. I immeadiately grabbed one, I love caramel!
Smucker’s Caramel …
Simply Organic Pure Vanilla Extract
Vanilla extract or vanilla bean seems to be such an unimportant thing, when you see it in the list of ingredients, but it’s not and there’s a big difference between the vanilla flavor or Vanillin and the real vanilla extract. I didn’t realize that until I actually got myself …
Kellogg’s Coco Pops Crunchers
School mornings are always rush hours for me. I have to get up early to make sure that I prepare breakfast for everyone especially my kids who will be at least spending 6 hours in school before they could have something heavier such as lunch in their stomachs. …

Once this Chinese dish was only available in Chinese restaurants. Now, it is being sold practically everywhere. Businesses have jumped on the bandwagon with each providing their own competitive advantage over the other.
For those who are not familiar with the food, it is raw noodle stir fried in …
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. …
Corralejo Reposado Tequila
I love good tequila, and reposado is my favorite. When I saw this fun bottle, I had to give it a try, and I think it’s definitely one of the best I’ve ever had.

Entenmann’s Cinnamon Swirl Buns
I much prefer the cinnamon swirl buns with raisins compared to Entenmann’s 8 Cinnamon Swirl Buns. The reason for my preference is twofold. First of all, I like raisins, so naturally, I would prefer the variety that actually contains raisins. Second of all, the raisins gave the bun some …

Mom’s Brand Madagascar S’mores Jungle Party Cereal

Labrada Nutrition Lean Body On the Go Ready to Drink Vanilla Ice Cream
Labrada Nutrition’s Bananas and Cream as well as their Strawberries and Cream flavored drinks are pretty delicious, with the former being the most delicious, while this flavor is only slightly above average in quality.
