Jose Ole Southwest Chicken Frozen Skillet Dinner
I have recently become a big fan of the frozen skillet meals that have recently come onto the market. These meals are a big improvement from standard microwave dinners because they allow the consumer to actually feel like they’re cooking the meal, as opposed to just warming it …
Starbucks Holiday Gingerbread Loaf
I have tasted ginger on a list of foods, snacks and drinks be it healthy or not. Being a dedicated Starbucks droid, stopped for my early morning tall, decafe, non-fat, white mocha while keeping the whip, I decided to try the gingerbread loaf. OMG, I fell in love with …
Swanson Salisbury steak packaged dinner
I am not usually a huge fan of television dinners but I do love Swanson products, so when their packaged dinners came on sale two for $5 I just had to buy them. The first one I selected was the Salisbury steak dinner with mushrooms, gravy potatoes and corn, …
Garden of Eatin’ Blue Corn Tortilla Chips
I am totally hooked on these chips. We gave them a try on a whim, and we liked them so much we have begun to buy them about once every week. We buy ours at Earth Fare grocery store, but I’m not sure what other stores sell them. Even …
Count Chocula Cereal
I am a huge fan of cereal, and always try and pick a healthy one that tastes great. Sometimes this is a challenge, and I have to choose health over flavour, then I discovered Count Chocula by General Mills.
I nearly passed on by Count Chocula at the Supermarket. I …
Smarties candies
I can actually remember a time when Smarties candies did not come in the color blue. I know that is probably saying a lot about how old I am but in the 1980’s and being a child who was a chocolate lover, I was well acquainted with Smarties. It …
Mrs. Dash’s Southwest Chipotle Salt-Free Seasoning Blend
I like Mrs. Dash’s salt-free blends. I think they’re a great alternative to other forms of seasoning that have lots of sodium. I really think they try hard to create the best possible flavor mixtures without adding salt.
Their Southwest Chipotle blend is perfect for any dish that calls for …
Marie Callenders Banana Muffin Mix
Marie Callenders is that brand that’s been around since 1948. They offer different flavors of muffins, one of them being the new Banana Muffin mix. I tried this mix when one of my relatives started to brag about the muffin mix, saying they taste as good as making them …
Nestle Cookie Crisp
I don’t always eat rice for my breakfast, when I woke up I will wash my face and go to the kitchen to cook our breakfast, fried rice, egg and franks, sometimes it will be chicken or pork it really depends. But these past few days I have a …
Kroger Foods a Discount Brand
When we lived in Chicago the Kroger Company had a large chain of food stores where everyone shopped. I don’t know if since leaving Chicago this food chain is still in existence; but the Kroger brand is still being sold in certain food stores at discount prices. The well known …
Child’s play candy
I bought some Child’s Play candy for Halloween to give out. It has tootsie rolls, juniors, snack bars, mini dots, tootsie pops, and tootsie fruit rolls. It has more tootsie rolls then anything. It has flavored tootsie rolls as well; I don’t know what they are really called. The …
Mountain Dew Revolution
This is one of the new 3 flavors from Mountain Dew, you vote on your favorite and then they will keep the one with the most votes. This drink to me tastes like drinking cough medicine. It has a weird after taste. It is nice for a refreshing drink …
Twix Chocolate Bar
Twix was first introduced into the UK in 1967 which means it has been around all my life and it has always been one of my favorite chocolate bars. Twix consists of two separate slim fingers of crunchy biscuit, topped with soft caramel and covered in milk chocolate. …
Chocolate Philadelphia Cream Cheese
Philadelphia the iconic cream cheese brand has recently launched a chocolate variety in conjunction with Cadbury, to the surprise of many (and horror in some instances!).
I first became aware of this product via an online advert featuring comedienne Jennifer Saunders and the tagline “Choccy Philly? Don’t Be Silly!” …
Pinahs Rye Chips —“ Original
Pinahs Rye Chips —“ Original are more than a little on the bland side compared to the other varieties available, like the garlic, Swiss cheese and green onion varieties. If you have ever had rye bread before, then you already know what these chips taste like. Now I like …
Hershey’s Cocoa Special Dark
I just found Hershey’s Cocoa Special Dark in the grocery store. I needed to restock cocoa, and had no idea that Hershey now made a Special Dark brand. I made my special cocoa the other evening, and my family agrees that Hershey’s Cocoa Special Dark is delicious! Hershey makes …
Folgers Coffee Singles Classic Roast Coffee Bags
I stumbled across a box of Folgers Coffee Singles Classic Roast Coffee Bags, one evening when browsing for a completely different product entirely. I previously had no intentions of purchasing any coffee, but I figured it wouldn’t hurt to have more on hand.
Previously I had never heard of …
Solevita Tea and fruit Exotic
From all cheaper discounts I like Lidl the most. there you can find a lot of cheap things and most of them are really good, also the prices aren’t as high as in other shops, they aren’t much lower either but you can actually see the difference.
I like to …
Aunt Jemima - Blueberry Waffles
Aunt Jemima - Blueberry Waffles proved to be just as disappointing as the blueberry pancakes, also made by Aunt Jemima, although unlike the blueberry pancakes, at least these waffles do not suffer from the same problems that frozen pancakes do: namely falling apart easily. The only reason I decided …
Sabra Roasted Garlic Hummus
Hummus is basically a Middle Eastern dip or spread that is made from ground chick peas blended with tahini and olive oil as well as various spices or lemon juice. Sabra Hummus is one of the brands of hummus that are available in my …
Cloud 9 Classic Chocolate
One of my favorite local chocolates is Cloud 9 Classic. I recently rediscovered it when I was shopping for snacks and candies for my son. I remembered how I used to beg my mom to buy me, not just a single Cloud 9, but a whole box of …
Bigelow Green Tea With Pomegranate
I have made this pact to myself that I will try all brands of green tea. Ever since I have made this my drinking ritual, it joys me to find out another brand in the market. Just weeks ago, together when I discovered the brand Celestial Seasonings, I get to …
Mr. Chips by Jack and Jill
Mr. Chips remained true to its promise which was written on the back of its foil package. It said that “You just don’t bite your Mr. Chips chip. You go out and gobble them all up.”
Each bite of a chip makes you feel the cheesy goodness of it. Filled …
Cheetos
I just love cheese. I love the taste, the smell, the color and the versatility of cheese. One of the cheese products that I truly love is Cheetos. I cannot live without it. If there is one food in the world that I would rather not share, it is …
V8 V-Fusion Strawberry Banana Smoothie
I personally love smoothies. The idea of blending different fruits and vegetables is just awesome. Not only am I getting all of my nutrition in one cup, I get to experiment in the kitchen. I usually go for smoothies for health reasons more so than just for cravings. Sometimes …
Mercer Orchards Roma Apples
Mercier Orchards Roma Apples are a good choice of apple to add to any family’s diet. They make for an excellent snack for small children to add to their lunch bag to take to school.
Since I am trying to lose a few pounds, I have decided to eat …
McDoanld’s Double Cheese Burger
One of my favorite items on the dollar menu at McDonald’s is the McDonald’s Double Cheese Burger. This is a great burger that tastes really good and is very cheap. I only spend 1 dollar and I get pretty full with one of these burgers. I really like the tastes …
Cloverhill Bakery - Apple Danish
I do wish that the Cloverhill Bakery Apple Danish had a richer cinnamon flavor to offer to complement the apple flavoring, but unfortunately, this danish falls somewhat sort when it comes to the cinnamon. At times, I had a difficult time tasting the cinnamon and that left this pastry …
Del Monte Tomato Sauce Original Style
I prefer to use tomato sauce every time I eat fried foods. I like the sweet and sour taste that a tomato sauce can give. When it comes to a good quality tomato sauce, Del Monte Tomato Sauce Original Style is just the best product for me. This is …
Co-operative cheese & onion flavour potato crisps
I do quite a lot of my shopping at the Co-op, or the Co-operative as they have relatively recently rebranded themselves. I am supportive of their policies on fairness and environmental concern, and find the shops convenient. Oddly, however, I do not buy most of my crisps from there, …
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 …
Little Debbie Snacks Donut Sticks
Little Debbie Snacks Donut Sticks are really quite good! They are basically a glazed donut, but in the form of a rather long stick rather than a circle. They are quite sweet and decent size, although I wish that they would put more than just six in a box. …
Focaccio with sun dried tomatoes, basil and fresh mozzarella
Recently I was on the road in Southern Oregon and needed to pick up a quick meal. I stopped at the local Safeway and nothing looked good. Finally, I looked at the pre-made sandwiches near the deli counter.
I expected to find the usually homogenized egg salad on white bread …
Totino’s Crispy Crust Party Pizza
Despite its rather festive and unusualy name, Totino’s Cripy Crust Party Pizza is actually a very simple product. It is an affordable and tasty frozen pizza product. Although some frozen pizzas have gotten elaborate and as expensive as ordering pizza from a pizzeria, Totino’s Pizzas are still …
Absolut Vodka
Absolut vodka is well known all over the world. Its design is impossible to mistake, in a bottle without any label but just letters printed on it. However, the bottle is not the only thing that makes this vodka special.
I like drinking vodka when I go to night clubs, …
Coffeemate Creamer
I usually don’t drink hardly any coffee. Although when I get a craving for it this is the creamer that I always use. I really like how it makes the coffee taste. It’s at a reasonable price and comes in a bottle that last me a while because I …
Rowan Hill Bakery Muffins
I bought these ‘Rowan Hill Bakery’ muffins from one of my favourite bargain stores, good old Lidl. They had an offer on of 30% off the price so I only paid about 30 pence I believe. For that you get six muffins in a packet. These …
Dillman Farm - Gourmet Spun Honey with Cinnamon and Pecan
Dillman Farm - Gourmet Spun Honey with Cinnamon and Pecan is a product that is incredibly rich and delicious! I have never tried something quite like this, but now that I have, I most certainly will be purchasing it again and again! Everything about this topping I find to …
Oatmeal
When i was in my college days i really dont appreciate the taste of this Oatmeal. But now when i am working, i used to see my friend who always hand carry a pack of Oatmeal. I just so wonder what and why she just so in love to …
Hershey’s Dark Chocolate
Dark Chocolates are really my favorite. I have tasted Nestlé’s dark chocolate and well it was my favorite dark chocolate because it was cheap too. The taste is not too sweet and not to thick in cocoa. Just recently though, I got a Hershey’s dark chocolate, a huge bar! …
Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits
It never ceases to amaze me every time I eat them —“ but, Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits have got to be the best biscuits I have ever woofed down.
If you have never been to Red Lobster or tasted their Cheddar Bay Biscuits, you are truly missing out a …
Elledi Poker hazelnut cream wafers
I like wafers a lot because usually they are very tasty although I it happened quite a few time to me that I’ve bought wafers that weren’t all that good at all, but mostly I was lucky. Last wafers that I’ve bought were Elledi hazelnut cream and they were …
Sweetfire chicken at Panda Express
Sweetfire chicken is my one of the favorite dishes at Panda Express. I have never thought that pine apple and chicken would make such a wonderful combination. Panda Express has successfully blended the sweet tangy pine apple pieces into chicken and spices to make a juicy mouth watering dish.
As …
Great Value: BBQ Flavored Potato Chips
Great Value: BBQ Flavored Potato Chips are not that great. They certainly are not as flavorful or enjoyable as the ripple cut potato chips. By that, I mean the salt flavor offered by the ripple cut potato chips is stronger than the barbecue flavor offered by these BBQ potato …
Kroger Brand Fruity Pops
I am most certainly a popsicle addict. But I like popsicle flavors that are a little “outside the box”, not your traditional Cherry, Grape, and Orange. So, when I perused the frozen food aisles at my local Kroger several years ago, and found banana popsicles, …
Newman’s Own Organics - Champion Chip Cookies
I confess — I’m not big on organics. I’m traditional with my food, and organic products tend to cost more than regular foods, but I recently took a chance and purchased Newman’s Own Organics - Champion Chip Cookies. I was prepared to hate them. I hesitantly broke …
Sans Rival
For tourist and travelers like me, going to Dumaguete City is nothing without stopping by and eating at Sans Rival. This is a name quite synonymous to Dumaguete City as if without this pastry shop, dumaguete City ceased to exist in the minds of visitors.
…
Grant’s Whisky
Every so often, you find that something comes along which is perceived as being just a standard product and no one thinks anything of it. Only when it is about to disappear do people start to realize just how lucky they were. That is the case with this whisky. …
Snickers chocolate bar
Since I was little I have always liked Snickers chocolate bars. Obviously I liek salty and sweet taste together. MY parents and my sister don’t like Snickers becaus ethey think that salty peanuts and chocolate just don’t go together so when I was little they woul never buy me …
