Old London Bagel French Onion Chips
The Old London Bagel French Onion Chips are very rich in onion flavoring - more so than any French Onion flavored potato chips that I have ever had and best of all, these bagel chips do not come with all the grease that potato chips have to offer or …
Mrs. May’s Cran-Tropical Crunch
I know that junk food is not good for you, but I just found the Mrs. May’s Cran-Tropical Crunch in the grocery and loved it. Like all junk foods, this claims to be a healthy food, vegan, wheat free with no preservatives. It’s a combination of cashes, almonds, pistachios …
Our Family Brand Toaster Pastries
Synopsis: A box of toaster pastries offered at select grocery store as a cheaper alternative to the more popular Pop Tart brand. I purchased a box of 8 pastries (four packages of 2) for $1.75.
What I liked about this brand: Well, you can’t argue with the price. When I …
Aquafina Bottled Water
As someone who is very particular about what kind of water I put into my body, I didn’t find Aquafina very impressive. It’s a cheaper brand, so I suppose you will get what you pay for (and maybe even a little less), but I still must say that I …
Kallo Whole Earth Organic Classic Cornflakes breakfast cereal
These corn flakes are a bit of an unusual choice if you, like me, are generally the sort of person who sticks to either the supermarkets’ own brands or the traditional fall back of Kellogg’s. They are also fairly expensive, with my local Sainsbury’s supermarket selling only a smallish …
Selecta Chocolate Almond Fudge Ice Cream
Selecta has been a good household local name here in the Philippines. They have been creating good ice cream flavors that can be comparable to the foreign brands for less the price.
They have recently released the flavour Chocolate Almond Fudge. A half gallon of ice cream would cost Php …
Crunch Peanut Butter Candy Eggs
I can’t get over this because the taste is still in my mouth, and that taste is something that I really don’t care for. The only reason I bought these was because I thought they were the regular Crunch Eggs. The bag shows the Crunch logo in big letters, …
Sour Patch Kids chewy candies
Sour Patch Kids are sour chewy candies that are coated with sugar. Like they say in the commercials, “First they’re sweet, then they’re sour”.
This is a large 10 oz bag that I bought at walmart. These are also sold at Target, Kroger, Brookshires, & most other grocery stores.
I would say …
Kroger salad dressing
I generally am extremely skeptical of generic or store brand salad dressings. But when Kroger put their store brand salad dressing on sale for only one dollar, I figured that I really didn’t have a lot to lose. This is a line of the best salad dressings …
Omaha Steaks Sesame Chicken Breats
Although these chicken breasts look small, the taste definitely makes up for the size. Anyone who loves a good sesame tasting chicken should give the Omaha Steaks Sesame Chicken Breasts a try. I’m a tall 27 year old female and cook eat you out of house and …
Rice Cakes
Rice cakes, when they first came out, used to be dry and flavourless - something like eating paper. Now, rice cakes are no longer so dry, and definitely not flavourless. The savoury tomato & basil rice cakes from Quaker boast of 0 trans fat, 1.5 g fat, and 50 …
Hilo Value Chinese Soy Sauce
One thing that I like about the brand Hilo is that they have released a few good quality products and sold them at a price that is lower than any other brand at most Hilo supermarkets I have visited islandwide. However, there are still one or two Hilo …
Hawaiian Punch-Lemon Berry Squeeze Juice
I have been drinking this regularly for over a month now and I have to say that it is amazing. I believe it’s one of the best juices that you can buy. I purchase it from Wal-Mart but it’s sold at several other retail stores. It …
Blue Bell’s Strawberry and Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream
Ice cream is by far one of my favorite desserts, ever since I was a child there has never been a flavor that I did not like. That is until, I tried Blue Bells’ Strawberry and Homemade Vanilla flavor. I was disappointed when I tried this flavor, especially because …
Uncle Ben’s Long Grain Wild Rice

This new kind of macaroni and cheese is great! If you are on the go constantly and need a quick yet filling meal this stuff is definently for you. They call it “easy mac” for a reason. Instead of having to deal with the hassle of boiling the water, …
Kellogg’s All-Bran Bran Buds
I did not care for this cereal very much. In terms of flavor, there is very little to taste and what I do taste is on the dull side. I know that this cereal is intended to be healthy, but there are other healthy cereals on in the grocery …
Oishi ponkan juice
This is a fairly new brand of powdered juice drink in the market which can compete with the leading brand because of its flavor and what it offers over all. Oishi Sundays ponkan powdered juice drink is very delicious and I especially love its sweet taste and very flavorful …
Thomas’ - Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Breakfast Bread with Crumb Topping
Thomas’ - Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Breakfast Bread with Crumb Topping is one of my favorite kinds of bread out there. The reason is simple: I positively love both cinnamon and raisins, and this bread has both in great abundance! Even before I begin toasting this tasty bread, I can …
Datu Puti Soy Sauce
Spices such as garlic and onion add and bring out the flavor of the ingredients. In some Philippine cuisine, spices wouldn’t suffice; soy sauce is needed to complement the taste of the food. Our family has relied to Datu Puti Soy Sauce as far as I can remember. Since …
S and R’s Pepperoni Calzone
I went to S and R membership shopping to get my groceries and toiletries. S and R is a huge warehouse like supermarket that sells different goods and has an area for people who can get hungry from all the shopping. They are selling pizza, calzone, sandwiches, hotdogs, ice …
Marmite Oven Baked Cashew Nuts
These Marmite Oven Baked Cashews are really nice and obviously quite moreish as I have got through a whole packet today and now I feel queasy. I was so enjoying them walking along back from the supermarket that I finished the lot, and the whole bag contains over …
Mister Choc milk chocolate peanuts
I adore M&Ms with peanuts in them but M&Ms are also rather expensive so I prefer buying similar products that are produced by some other companies and cost less. That’s the case with Mister Choc milk chocolate peanuts. You can mostly buy them at Lidl discounts all over the …
Libby’s Vienna Sausages
I like Libby’s Vienna Sausages, they are tasty and soft, an excellent choice for a quick snack. The tiny can of 6 small sausages costs under 50 cents. The sausages look like hotdogs cut in half. They are made of chicken, pork, and beef; very tender and moderately salty. …
The Vitamin Shoppe Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
Organic coconut oil should be in the “superfood” group. It has outstanding health benefits and even tastes great. Since my family began eating healthy, we began looking for a good coconut oil. We wanted a quality product that was organic. We also wanted a good …
Maggie tomato sauce
I have tasted much kind of tomato sauces but the Maggie tomato sauce is totally different. Its taste is unique and comparatively the price is not too much high and it can be very much affordable. It comes in many flavours but the regular or the normal …
Nova Multigrain Snack ( Italian Herb Flavor )
I love chips and I love nibbling them while watching DVD movies or TV shows. Why I crave for this is because of the greatness of its taste. But before, potato chips were solely the famous choice. It is high in sodium and bad for the kidneys if we eat …
Maryland Gooeys Cookies Chocolate
I first bought these cookies after seeing an advertisement on TV for them. I’m not generally swayed at all by adverts, but these cookies really did look absolutely delicious: a normal chocolate chip cookie, with a smooth chocolatey filling inside? Yes, definitely something I’d love.
So I went to my …
Betty Crocker Scalloped Potatoes
I love Betty Crocker products so I recently bought her Scalloped Potatoes in Country Cut Cheddar to go with a meal I was making. Not being a big fan of freezes dried foods I was sceptical how these potatoes would turn out but I need not have worried.
These Betty …
So Delicious Coconutmilk yogurt alternative unsweetened
Trying out vegan stuff has become one of my obsessions lately. There are so many dairy and meat alternatives at the store now, it blows my mind. I’m a vegatarian and I eat dairy, however, I’m cutting it out a lot, I don’t use regular milk in any recipes anymore, …
Betty Crocker - Devil’s Chocolate Cake Mix
Betty Crocker - Devil’s Chocolate Cake Mix is not really the best Devil’s Food cake I have ever had, but I would say that for the amount of money I paid for it, it turned out to be worth it. The cake is most definitely moist and unquestionably airy, …
Mary Janes
My mom tends to keep a random mismatch of candy around their house, just for those days when the grandkids decide to drop by or she finds herself unexpectedly baby-sitting. She usually buys a few popular candies, but she also likes to stock the house with the things she …
Krunchers Original Potato Chips
A small bag of Krunchers! Original Potato Chips was included with my meal at Panera Bread bakery & cafe. I like the original version of chips, plain, without any additional flavors, so I was glad to try this new brand. The inscription on the bag said that the potato …
Kielbasa Dog at Yakima Bears Ballgame
Recently I attended a Northwest League Short Season baseball game in Yakima, Washington. This league is the first stop for many professional baseball players and gives these young men a chance to learn while playing.
I don’t know about your town, but in Yakima they grow their Kielbasa BIG! For …
Little Debbie Christmas Tree Brownies
There really is not a whole lot of difference between these Little Debbie Christmas Tree Brownies and the Little Debbie fudge brownies or the cosmic brownies. Yes, these brownies do have green food coloring to simulate the color of a Christmas tree and yes, there are colored candies to …
Pop-Pan Biscuits
Pop-Pan biscuits are a brand of Chinese style biscuits that are sold in many Western and Asian supermarkets found across America. They are quite popular with us Chinese-Canadians, although I am not quite sure of their popularity with the Westerners. The biscuits come in many, many different flavors, although …
Deer Park Spring Water
Deer Park brand spring water is a fine example of decent bottled water actually worth paying for. Although water doesn’t have a particular flavor, it can still taste bad. Deer Park water, however, has a refreshing lack of chemical taste. They claim it comes from real …
Chef Boyardee Lasagna Big Bowl
Chef Boyardee has long been a favorite brand of mine. It’s one of my trusted brands from childhood. In recent years, they introduced microwavable products, including lasagna, and now they have the Chef Boyardee Lasagna Big Bowl, which is a whopping two cups full of their tasty …

Southern Grove 100 Calorie Packs Cocoa Roasted Almonds
The Southern Grove 100 Calorie Packs Cocoa Roasted Almonds retails for one dollar and ninety-nine cents. In one package comes seven mini-packs of cocoa roasted almonds. Each mini pack amounts to a suggested serving. I have to say, I have trouble limiting myself to just one pack! I find …

Asian Style Sensations Egg Rolls
My wife and I love Chinese food and, as a result of that, we tend to eat a lot of egg rolls.
Yesterday, we opted to have Chinese for lunch and, while at the store buying several products, I ended up picking up a box of Asian Style Sensations egg …
Lays chips
Everybody knows that Lays is an internationally acclaimed brand for its awesome chips. When I first got to taste those chips, I did not like them much. Maybe it was the flavor or my bad mood, I don’t know, but the next time the chips tasted so good. Its …
Starbucks’ Venti Mocha Frappucino
When I was working the night shift, I would normally get me a cheeseburger from the nearest McDonald’s restaurant in the corner and add a huge cup of Venti Mocha Frapuccino on the side. I know this may seem weird but I like to pair coffee with anything. Any …
