Bibica’s ChocoChips
I like the packaging of the Bibica’s ChocoChips. The box is as big as a ream of A4 papers, and the image of chocolate chip cookies really look big and nice.
There are twenty-five individually packed chocolate chip cookies in the Bibica’s ChocoChips. I thought that there are …
Mrs. Freshley’s Apple Danish
I was somewhat disappointed with Mrs. Freshley’s Apple Danish. The reason I was somewhat disappointed is because the apple danish really did not have a great deal of flavor that I could taste and enjoy. There seemed to be a deficiency in apple flavor, although perhaps a deficiency is …

Tiramisu. One of the greatest dessert that I could offer to my nephews and nieces. Even though I’m not a genius cook but for me the flavor of Tiramisu is really good will give you thist impression that someone professional baked it. That flavor will only be possible with …
Our Family Corn Dogs
Product description: Box of frozen, battered corn dogs. I found them on sale for $1.99 this past Sunday.
What I liked about this product: The big one is obviously the price. Corn dogs are surprisingly expensive around here and the fact I found a decent-sized box for under $2 is …
Lean Cuisine Sesame Chicken Frozen Entree
This frozen entrée is a little more indulgent than some of the others offered by Lean Cuisine. But I have to say I love it and it’s one of the ones I always go for in the supermarket when I see it!
It consists of chicken that’s been breaded …

Ceres Cranberry and Kiwi Pure Fruit Juice Blend
I bought this juice drink at Spencers grocery in Inorbit and it says 100% pure fruit juice blend so I selected it for a try. I did have a brand for fruit juice but since I wanted to try and taste other brands, I got curious on Ceres.
Ceres offers …
Carl’s Jr. French Fries

Corona Beer
Corona beer is unique in the taste and other great thing is the smoothness of the beer. I normally drink five to six bottles of Corona beer at a stretch easily. However the liquor content of six percentages makes it well a light beer compared with many other brands. …

Salemi Deli (Robinsons Metro East)
My boy friend and I just love eating sausages. Well actually, believe it or not, we even had sausage for breakfast for almost 2 weeks. We just enjoy munching on German sausages, but we all know that German sausage is pretty pricey.
Thank goodness, Salemi Deli has a branch …
Bojangle’s French Fries
If I could only eat one food for the rest of my life, I think I would pick the fries from Bojangles. Unfortunately for me there aren’t any of the fast food chain restaurants around me. Maybe that should be fortunately since I probably would never eat anywhere else. …
I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter, Butter Substitute
I love butter on everything I eat. I bake with butter and use it to top every type of bread. I like to use butter to saute and even fry on occasion. Although I love butter and think it absolutely makes every meal delicious, I was trying to cut …
Safeway Select Water Crackers With Cracked Black Pepper
These wafer thin crackers have become a staple in my home.For people who are used to Ritz or Triscuits these won’t won’t seem like anything to write home about. But, I have tried water crackers before and liked them so I decided I might like this brand as well.

Lord Stow’s Bakery

The only place one can get this chocolate is in asian markets or online. It is made in Japanese and is popular amongst Asians. It is a cube of caramel mousse/somethinc pudding-like covered in chocolate and cocoa powder. It is simple and small which I think looks kind of …
Michelina’s Four Cheese Lasagna
This frozen dinner doesn’t even look like traditional lasagna. It’s not in a square or rectangular shape and it doesn’t have meat, either. This is a lasagna dish that’s all about the cheese and noodles. The blending of four cheeses is the highlight of this frozen dinner. There’s ricotta …
Knorr Real Chinese Soup
There are actually two variants of Knorr soup, the cream soups and the real Chinese soups. Between the two, I prefer the real Chinese soups even though they are a bit expensive. But still both tastes good.Since we love soups and we use them as side …
Hostess Donettes - Chocolate
These Hostess Donettes - Chocolate variety are downright terrible! The chocolate flavor that coats these donuts really does not taste like chocolate at all! What happened to the rich and delicious chocolate used for the Hostess Cupcakes, Suzy Q’s, Ding Dongs and similar products? This chocolate tastes like some …
Wholly Guacamole
I love guacamole, but I do not like to make it at home. I do not like to try to select a ripe avocado because I inevitably choose the wrong one. I also like to have my guacamole ready when I am in the mood for it, without …
South Beach living on the go drink mixes
This is the only on the go drink mix that I have ever tried. It’s one of the things you put in bottled watter to make it flavored. Well I would rather just buy the flavored water already made. To me this didn’t have enough flavor in it. It …
Julio’s Corn Tortilla Chips
Tired of the “traditional” tortilla chip brands and looking for something different?
I was. I mean, don’t get me wrong, Tostitios and Dorritos are fine, but everybody’s had those (in the US anyway.) I was looking to try someone more “craft” and local/regional to Texas and I found them—¦Julio’s family …
Tango Milk Chocolate with Hazelnuts
While looking through the snack section at the grocery store I was trying to figure out which chocolate I’d like to have today. I then came across a new brand of chocolate. Medium sized, reasonably priced and attractive packaging. The light sky blue colour and the bright hazelnuts against …
Stouffer’s Easy Express Cheese Manicotti
Stouffer’s Easy Express Cheese Manicotti makes for a fairly tasty meal! Admittedly, this meal is more about flavor than it is about being filling, but in the case of this food, I am okay with that because the flavor comes from cheese! Lots and lots of cheese! Cheese is …
Best Choice Minced Garlic Cloves
Since my husband unfortunately lost his job last year, our family was forced to seriously reconsider how much we spend each week at the grocery store. One area where we found it was easy to save money was buying purchasing generic products in place of higher priced name brand …
Springtree: Maple All Natural Syrup
Springtree: Maple All Natural Syrup is a syrup that is really very rich and delicious, more so even than the syrups made by Log Cabin and Mrs. Butterworth’s, two of my favorites, but unfortunately, I find this syrup to be ridiculously priced and for only, get this, eight point …

Ferrero Rocher chocolate
I’m sure a lot of people have seen the Ferrero Rocher commercials, you know the one where the gods drop their precious chocolates down to Earth, yeah that one. Before that commercial I had already been a big fan of Ferrero Rocher. I had never tried any of their …
Cadbury Fudge
Cadbury’s Fudge is only a little chocolate bar but as the advert says —˜just enough to give your kids a treat’. It is good for adults too and I like to buy a Fudge bar when I want a chocolate snack that is not too filling but just …
Blue Bunny Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones
I found this Blue Bunny Champ! Banana Split Ice Cream Cones to be a satisfactory treat, although admittedly, I did expect more from this ice cream cone. The vanilla ice cream, for one, just was not as good as it normally is. Generally, Blue Bunny has pretty tasty vanilla …
Great Value Ravioli
I wanted to pick up something cheap for lunch today and, after looking around, decided to spend 80 cents on a can of beef ravioli from the brand Great Value.
