Bear Brand: White Tea and White Malt
These White Tea and White Malt are the new variants of Bear Brand milk product. Both of these new products have a very unique packaging, that I couldn’t take my eyes off them the first time I saw them.
Although the price of these new products are a bit higher …
Hillshire Farm Deli Select Ultra Thin Smoked Ham
This particular product, Hillshire Farm Deli Select Ultra Thin Smoked Ham, fulfilled my needs perfectly. I love the ultra thin slices, which I can then use in multiple ways. I don’t really like thick meat slices, so this specific cut is really perfect for my individual preference.
As …
Brioche Pasquier Pains Au Chocolat
These are delicious, high quality chocolate croissants from the Brioche Pasquier brand and I bought these from Tesco at £1.50. For that you get six croissants in a packet and you can find them amongst the other packeted bread goods in Tesco. Each croissant is oblong shaped …
Pop Weaver Light Butter Microwave Popcorn
Do you like the dollar store? Well, I do. I got addicted to those chain stores the moment I came to America. I like to look for good deals in there and one day I saw popcorn, which is usually more expensive than 1 dollar. The brands they sell there …
Pepperidge Farm Texas Toast Mozzarella & Monterey Jack Cheese
I must thank Pepperidge Farm for giving me the idea to add mozzarella and Monterey Jack cheese to my Mama Cozzi Texas Toast every now and then, because it’s really deliciously cheesy and it’s Texas Toast with a little bite thanks to the Monterey Jack cheese topping. I add …
The Co operative Fairtrade Gold Roast Instant Coffee
I gave quite a bad review of the Co-operative’s Fairtrade Instant Coffee, but this is the ‘Gold Roast’ which implies a better quality instant coffee. This is a freeze dried coffee ‘for a smooth, rich flavour’ so I was hopeful it was going to be better. This …
Jacobs Ice Coffee (instant)
I am lover of instant coffee. To be more precise, I like it strong, sweet - and preferably cool. And yet, I am not a great fan of iced coffee… with the exception of one single brand: Jacobs Ice Coffee.
I have noticed there are two “ice coffee” produced by Jacobs. …
Trader Joe’s Milk Chocolate Crisps
I bought these chocolate yummies a few days ago from Trader Joes. They were around 3 dollars and have 36 in the container. It sounds a bit pricey, but for the quality and taste, its pretty good. The crisps are shaped like Pringles chips and are made with Belgian …
Betty Crocker Hershey’s Frosted Supreme Brownie Mix
I purchased this brownie mix for $3.15 at my local grocery store Friday night. We were entertaining guests and rather than spending close to $6.00 for the already made up brownies I decided it would be thriftier (And homier I might add.) to just make my own. As soon …
Sargento - Deli Style Sliced Aged Swiss Cheese
Sargento Deli Style Sliced Aged Swiss Cheese is my favorite kind of Swiss cheese, and really, my favorite kind of cheese period. The reason I prefer the aged Swiss over the regular Swiss is because I like the sharper flavor that the aged Swiss has to offer. It really …
CNI Ginseng Coffee
Actually this is a beverage not food, but since reviewstream doesn’t have beverage category so i believe it included in the food category.
Ok, back to my review. I love to drink coffee, infact i’m addicted to coffee. I can’t work well if i don’t drink at less a cup …
So Delicious Unsweetened Coconutmilk
I’ve been trying different plant-based milks for the last few months and, apparently, I’m really picky since I don’t have a favourite yet. This milk didn’t find its way into my favourites either. Even though I like So Delicious and I think their coconut milk products are really nice, I …
Almond Breeze Almond Milk: Vanilla Flavour
When my daughter was first diagnosed as lactose intolerant I was clueless as to the type of soy based milk I should use as a replacement to the cow’s milk we had been using at home. A colleague recommended that I try the Almond Breeze range of products. She …
Meijer Instant Oatmeal Spice Variety
I am a big oatmeal lover, but I usually eat the regular kind out of the big cylinder box! I tried the Meijer Spice Variety at a friend’s house, though, and I loved it so much, I had to buy some for myself!
This oatmeal comes in packets, with five …
Heinz classic Lentil Soup
This soup has become a family favourite, which is a bit surprising as I had imagined a soup made of lentils to be rather bland and boring. We first discovered it when we were looking for a pure soup for our young daughter which contained no artificial ingredients. …
Great Value Sparkling Water (Tangerine Lime)
I have never been a fan of water, so I have always looked for flavoured water because I like the taste a lot more than average tap or bottled water.
I was walking around Wal-Mart when I found the Great Value Tangerine Lime 1 litre bottle. And it was only …
Taco Bell Fully Loaded Chipotle Steak Taco Salad
I don’t normally eat at Taco Bell. But one day I decided to try out the loaded salad that I kept seeing on television. I was really surprised with how large the salad was. The shell was huge. And it’s served in this really …
Lady’s Choice Mayonnaise
Mayonnaise is one of my favorite sandwich spread since I was a kid.And until now, I prefer using Lady’s Choice Mayonnaise when there’s any celebration to prepare. I just don’t used it as a sandwich spread but also I mixed it with a fruit or macaroni salad.
I like this …
Multi-Grain Cheerios
Starting off a day with a bowl of Multi-Grain Cheerios certainly isn’t the tastiest way to begin a new day, but it definitely makes for one of the healthiest. Out of all the Cheerio varieties, and there sure are a whole lot of them, and compared with the different …
Albertsons Homestyle Waffles
I will only purchase Albertsons Homestyle Waffles when they are on sale and I can get a box for one dollar. Ten waffles come in a box, and at a dollar, I find the price to be the best deal out there even compared with other store brand waffles. …
Safeway Orange Cream Clear Sparkling Water
I am on a mission to find the world’s best flavored water, and this is not it. With that, I must add that this is certainly not the worst I have sampled lately. Read my other reviews for a critique of some of the worst tasting brands …
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 …
Lipton Tea Bags
I am a heavy tea drinker. I think that I drink an entire pitcher of tea in the winter and even more during the hotter months of the year. My favorite tea is Lipton tea bags. I like the convenient 100 count boxes and they are …
San Mig Coffee
San Mig Coffee is definitely one of my favorite coffee brands. I first tried San Mig Coffee last year when I saw it at our neighborhood grocery store. I was surprised to see how cheap it was compared to other brands of instant coffee. It tastes so delicious, the …
Lucozade Orange Energy Drink
I truly hate consuming energy drinks because of all the bad publicity they get and because I know of people who have either died or gotten very ill as a result. The only time I drink them these days is unless I truly have no choice, which means I’m …
Little Hug Drink Bottles for Kids
These little drink bottles shaped like mini barrels for kids with the foil cap are pretty neat, but they do have a few drawbacks. I can buy them at a little mom and pop grocery store in singles here in Fort Wayne, or in a case there or …
Nesvita Cereal Milk Drink
I sometimes have Nesvita Cereal Milk Drink for my breakfast. I have this cereal when I don’t have much time to prepare for my breakfast. This is available in different flavors and my favorite is Choco Malt Flavor. This is sold in different sizes of plastic packs and small …
Mayfair Egghead Dairy Milk Chocolate
I was starving one time when I discover this milk chocolate. I went to the nearest food store to buy something salty to eat and then I see the yellow packaging of chocolate from Mayfair. I used to eat this kind when I was young; this is because my …
Marketside Supreme Traditional Crust Pizza
This pizza is made by Walmart and can only be found at Walmart stores. It’s in the deli section and sells for just under six dollars for a twelve inch pizza. That’s a good size pizza and it always proves to be enough for my family of three, especially …
Pop Weaver Popcorn
We finally finished up the box of Pop Weaver microwaveable popcorn we bought a couple weeks ago. I’m glad. This will be the last time I buy this brand.
We love popcorn in our house and eat it a couple times each week. But, when it comes to this brand, …
Spaans Ginger Bars Sugar-Free Cookies
Continuing on with my holiday-season-stealing of my folks store-bought cookie arsenal (see my previous post on Spaans Lemon Chiffon cookies for more context) next up, Spaans Ginger Bars Sugar Free Cookies.
On the plus side once again, as apparently customary with Spaans’ packaging, you get a whole 10 oz tub …
So Nice Vanilla Chai Soy Beverage
Like many people I suffer from some mild lactose intolerance so I bought the brand So Nice Vanilla Chai Soy Beverage as a substitute for a milk drink. I had bought other So Nice soy products in the past but never a Chai one so I was eager to …
Monterey Clean N’ Ready Fresh Sliced Mushrooms
After some consideration, I decided to pick up a frozen lasagna dinner from one of our local grocery stores for dinner a few nights ago (we had something else in mind, but we never got out of the house like we planned).
As part of the deal, I told my …
Lucerne Skim Milk 1 L
If you ask me, this is the best skim milk there is. Lucerne just makes the best milk, or maybe I shouldn’t say that, because their cows, not Lucerne make the best milk.
Of course, this skim milk incarnation should be fat free, after all, this is what skim milk …
Clancy’s All Natural Jalapeno Kettle Chips
I’m someone that prefers kettle chips over regular potato chips. I like how kettle chips are typically derived from thicker potato cuts, have slightly fewer calories and tend to be crunchier. What I don’t like about kettle chips however is the prices that they typically sell at, which can …
Tyson Panko Breaded Chicken Breast Tenderloins
My wife and I purchased this product about three weeks ago during one of our routine shopping trips at Costco. At the time of our purchase, we believed these were the pre-cooked tenderloins we usually buy and made the purchase thinking we could just put them in our microwave, …
Dabour Honey
Dabour Honey is my child’s favourite sweetener. Which is very very natural and very tasty and yet nutritious. I apply the Dabour honey to the bread and serve it to my children and they love their breakfast. I also add some amount of it to the …
Diet pepsi max
DIet pepsi max reminds me of pepsi edge it has that extra jolt. I stay up all night very often and love having a diet drink I actually like the taste of that can keep me up. I read today that the reason for the jolt is it has …
Blueraspberry Flavored Twizzlers
After trying the Blue Raspberry flavored Twizzlers, I am not really sure what I feel about the product, and though I really don’t have a problem with them, I wouldn’t recommend it only because it has that “iffy” quality to it. Where I don’t feel that it something worth …
Great Value Cheddar Cheese Crunch
The Great Value Cheddar Cheese Crunch comes in an eight point five ounce bag and retails for just under two dollars. As a snack food, these cheese puffs are moderately enjoyable. They’re a little less crunchy than potato chips because they’re kind of airy on the inside, but they …
Oasis’s 100% Blueberry and Concord Grape Juice
This product is as healthy as it can get. A lot of juice out there is from concentrate (which isn�t as good as 100% pure ones) or the ones mixed from powder or the other unnatural ones or contain too much sugar. Anyway this contains 100% vitamin C! Because …
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.
However, I’ve also found I’m getting really sick of water all the time …
Accidentally Fabulous Apple Raisin Stuffing
Thanksgiving Day rolled around and I had never gotten out to buy celery or onions for the homemade stuffing Mom wanted. I can’t explain it - I just didn’t feel like it, partly because I just didn’t feel right, period. I did have some stove-top-like stuffing mix, …
Nabisco Reduced Fat Oreo Cookies
I must admit that this purchase was a complete mistake. I’m afraid I’m becoming my mother, intending to pick up one thing and then accidentally getting the wrong thing. I didn’t realize my mistake until I bit into an Oreo. Instantly, I thought, “Huh? This …
Knorr Frozen Entree
I received a coupon for a free to try Knorr Frozen Entree.
I’ve seen the commercials on t.v. where they ‘bleep’ out the word frozen as if it’s a swear word and I was interested to try this after being invited to participate in a campaign with bzzagent.com
These were a …
Uncle Ben’s Bistro Express Indian Style Curry with Basmati Rice
I am a huge rice fan, and in the past I have bought many Uncle Ben’s products, including rice ones. Recently on the television I kept seeing the commercials for the Bistro Express Indian Style Curry with Basmati Rice and I have to admit it looked really tempting. The …
5 Hour Energy Drink
Ever since I started working at nights, I had the problem of staying up throughout the night and on the way home. I tried naps, that kinda worked. I tried coffee, I hate coffee. I drink tea but that doesn’t help me that much. Then, …
Sobe Lifewater Pacific Coconut Beverage
Sobe Lifewater Pacific Coconut Beverage is a beverage I picked up one afternoon to top off my quick lunch. Given that I am a very big fan of Sobe beverage, and coconut water I did not hesitate to grab a bottle.
Coconut Water has become one of the trends in …
Hershey’s Cookie’s N Cream Milk
Hershey’s Cookies N Cream Milk is de-li-cious! I have tried a lot of breakfast shakes, milkshakes, protein shakes, and other milk products, but none stand a chance against Cookies N Cream. The taste is similar to that of the Hershey Cookies N Cream candy bar. Besides the …
Blue Bonnet Margarine
Blue bonnet margarine is a great butter alterative for cooking I have found. I typically only use butter when I make baked good like cookies and cakes but recently was encouraged by a friend to give margarine a try. I have been pretty impressed with the quality I have …
