Food Reviews
Subway (Berkeley, CA near campus)
Subway, “Eat Fresh,” so goes the slogan. Although I have never found Subway to be fresh, it is always been a healthier, delicious alternative to traditional fast food. Subway is one of those places that you will frequent once a week, because you know exactly what you are getting …
Kraft Finely Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
My family has long used Kraft cheese products, but recently, we tried some other brands. They were cheaper and made a lot of the same claims as this item. Having used these alternatives, though, leads me to the conclusion that this specific product, Kraft Finely Shredded Mozzarella …
Donat Mg mineral water
Donat Mg is natural mineral water, that is used for healing problems with digestion, heartburn, stomach problems and even to help people who have minor problems with irregular heart beats.

Kuchenmeister Lemon Pound Cake
Kuchenmeister Lemon Pound Cake is a product that I came across at an ALDI Food Market store for one dollar and sixty-nine cents. I decided to give it a try and see how well it tasted compared with The Bakery At Walmart Lemon Sliced Loaf Cake, a bakery item …
French Vanilla Coffee Creamer
A couple of days ago, I went to get groceries to our local Walmart late at night, around 11:00 (it was a long day). Perhaps that is why I had managed to find the Great Value version of French vanilla coffee creamer: obviously, the product is so popular that …
McDonald’s Grilled Chicken Club Premium Sandwich
While we’re living out of a motel these days, much of our diet, unfortunately consists of items off the various fast food menus that surround us in the way of Burger King, Taco Bell, and yes, McDonald’s. The other night, my husband went to pick us up some …
Little Debbie - Blueberry Muffins
Little Debbie - Blueberry Muffins are quite the enjoyable treat! They are just so incredibly soft and moist and the blueberry flavor is just bursting all over the muffin! Every bite you are sure to find yourself with blueberries bouncing off your taste buds! The muffins are quite the …
Tic Tac Candy Cane Mints
Every so often, it’s nice to pop a tic tac into my mouth, either because I like the flavor of a refreshing mint or because there is a taste in my mouth that I want to do away with. With it being the Christmas season right now, there are …
Jiffy Pop Butter Flavored Popcorn
Growing up, before microwaves and even before air poppers were popular, Jiffy Pop Popcorn was the rage. We used to buy it all the time. It came like it was a pan and all you did was rub it against the hot burner. Since the age …
Dilmah Exceptional Italian Almond Tea (Luxury Bags)
I’m something of a flavoured tea junkie. I tend to spend much more money on tea than I do on any other food and drink item, and I definitely buy more expensive brands thereof than when it comes to the regular kinds of beverages or food. Moreover, I’m a …
Mini Stik-O Chocolate Wafer Sticks
I love taking snacks especially in the afternoon. Usually I eat small bits of snacks and pair it with coffee because I don’t really want to eat a lot before dinner time. When I went grocery shopping, I was able to find Stik-O chocolate wafer sticks. But this is …
Nescafe Gold Roast Coffee 3-in-1 Coffee
I like to drink coffee anytime of the day. The most important part of my breakfast and afternoon snacks would be drinking my daily dose of coffee. I have different instant coffee mixes and I have had the opportunity to try the Nescafe Gold Roast 3-in-1 coffee mix.
This …
Wendy’s - Coffee Toffee Twisted Frosty
Wendy’s - Coffee Toffee Twisted Frosty is a flavor combination that I thought I might like, but ultimately found out that it was a flavor combination that just did very little for me in terms of exciting my taste buds. The coffee syrup that is a part of the …
Keebler Graham Cracker Crumbs
I enjoy baking all sorts of goods including cakes, pies, cookies, breads and etc. especially during the holiday season and family gatherings throughout the year. I pride myself on using the freshest ingredients and making everything from scratch. No, it’s not always easy and it can be time consuming …
Lyle’s golden syrup
I’ve been using Lyle’s golden syrup for quite a while now and I am finding this product very good especially when I am preparing pancakes at home. I usually spread it generously on top of my pancake. Before I use golden syrup I normally just had a …
Banquet Gravy and Salisbury Steak with Mashed Potatoes and Corn
The Banquet gravy and Salisbury steak with mashed potatoes and corn was a frozen dinner I had tried before discovering the Michaelina’s Salisbury steak dinner. It was one of those dollar and some change meals I though would be a great buy. It wasn’t.
The thing that got me about …
Sainsbury’s Belgian Chocolate Millionaire’s Shortbread
I spotted this chocolate and caramel shortbread in Sainsbury’s —˜food to go’ area of the supermarket and it looked gorgeous. It tasted absolutely delicious too and I can see this shortbread becoming a craze for me as I am buying another tomorrow. Considering it was not expensive, …
Ben and Jerry’s Mint Chocolate Cookie One Pint
My son purchased Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream and got a two for $5.00 special on it. He used the second purchase for my favorite flavor ice cream. Ben and Jerry’s version is a bit different than the traditional mint chocolate chip flavor so I wasn’t sure about it. …
Hippo Italian Pizza Snack
I got hungry while shopping and there was nothing I can think of munching so I grabbed a bag of Hippo Italian Pizza snack that we bought during that day and it was my first time to taste it. I have purchased the same looking snack from the past …
Sabra Roasted Garlic Hummus
If you are a fan of hummus like me then you know for sure how important it is to find the good stuff. Not every hummus will do. As a matter of fact, unless it is really, it’s not worth having at all. Sure the restaurants have the good …
Nesvita Cereal Milk Drink
One way to achieve a healthy body is through proper diet but there are some instances where you can’t say no to delicious food and the worst is that you know that it’s rich in fat and oil but then you keep on eating those because it’s really hard …
Del Monte Pineapple Juice
I loved to eat fruits most especially those rich in fiber, but some times I don’t have time to buy some fresh fruits most especially pineapple because this is one of my favorite fruit. I like this fruit because it is rich in fiber that helps me easily eliminates …
Chunky Sirloin Burger Soup from Albertsons
Chunky Sirloin Burger soup from Albertsons is a rich soup that is well mixed with meat and vegetables. I bought it from Albertsons where it come in can and ready to serve. The quantity was well enough for me for two servings. So I poured the rest of the …
Kellogg’s Special K Blondie Brownie Bites
I like snack foods that come in convenient one-hundred calorie bags. Not only is it an easy way to keep track of a serving size, but also, it can serve as a guilt mechanism for the conscious. It can be an honest, easy mistake to go over the recommended …
Jell-o Gelatin - Lime
Jell-o Gelatin - Lime variety is a flavor that I like to have every now and then. The company did a pretty impressive job taking the lime flavor and injecting it into this gelatin! The lime flavor is quite authentic and real, and the flavoring does not at all …
Roland Couscous
There are a lot of different companies out there who make couscous. The food, mostly eaten in African countries, is largely made of little grains that when cooked properly with the right ingredients, can be very delicious. The problem is that if you don’t buy the right kind of …
Skippy Creamy Peanut Butter
Now may not be the best time for a peanut butter review. It seems like every day there’s yet another recall for some product made of peanut butter or peanut butter paste. That said, the big brands haven’t been involved with the recall, though I suspect their …
Chef Boyardee Minis Macaroni and Cheese
I enjoy homemade macaroni and cheese, but have absolutely no use for the boxed variety. Recently, I bought some Chef Boyardee Minis Macaroni and Cheese on clearance sale at my local supermarket. I really had no idea what to expect, but each 212gram tub was only $1 so I …
Cerelac Apple, Wheat and Milk
When my daughter started eating solid foods I gradually introduced different types and flavors of food. Since she really loves Cerelac I tried giving her Apple, Wheat and Milk and she likes it so much. Compared to Cerelac Rice, Banana and Wheat she likes this better. I am amazed …
Little Debbie Chocolate Chip Snack Cakes
I have found these Little Debbie Chocolate Chip Snack Cakes to be a tasty treat to enjoy every now and then. While the flavor is not fantastically rich, the cakes do satisfy my desire for something sweet. The chocolate cake is relatively moist and soft, although the flavor could …
Grappo Fizz Sparkling Grape Drink

Stacy’s Pita Chips are my new favorite snack food and they are really not that bad for your health. These delicious chips come in a variety of flavors and none of them are very high in calories or saturated fat. I love how they are flavorful while …
Nescafe Coffee
I never used to like coffee very much to the point where I would wonder what other people found to like in its taste. However these days I have begun to appreciate a mug of coffee now and then. I have also come to realise that that not ever …
Berryhill Creamy Peanut Butter
The only store that I’ve come across that carries this brand of peanut butter is ALDI. ALDI also carries a crunchy variety, but I highly prefer the smooth, creamy variety. Berryhill Creamy Peanut Butter isn’t quite as good as the peanut butter that’s sold at the large chain grocery …
Nestle Hot Cocoa Mix - Double Chocolate Meltdown
It’s been a while since I’ve purchased hot cocoa, but since I’m economizing by keeping my heat off most of the time, I thought I’d get some more to help warm me up during those colder moments of the day and/or night. I decided to purchase Nestle Hot …
Kellogg’s Frosties
Kellogg’s Frosties is definitely one of my favorite cereal brands. I love having this as a daily breakfast and I never get tired of its taste. Kellogg’s Frosties is very nutritious and delicious, it is perfect for your whole family. The box enumerates the essential vitamins and minerals needed …
Sbarro Authentic Italian Food
When you say pizza, the only thing in my mind is the name Sbarro. Personally, Sbarro is on of my favorite restaurants specially when it comes to pizza. Every pay day my boy friend and I always go there to have a slice of pizza, pasta and some fresh …
Pringles
I’m old enough to remember when Pringles first came out on the market; or at least became popular enough where people actually heard of them.
And, throughout the years, the chips have made some interesting claims ranging from being whole chips because they are in a can and not in …
Sunbeam Sultana Bursts Raspberry Flavor
I like Sunbeam sultanas and I just had to try the latest Raspberry flavored Sultana Bursts. You get 6 30g packs of Sultana Bursts fro $2.30 AUS. This is slightly dearer than other sultana packs on the market but I like Sunbeam Sultanas so I thought I’d try the …
Domino’s Ice creams
The Domino’s ice creams are so wonderful. These ice creams are very popular and most of the children and even the elders do like these ice creams. The quality, colour, flavours and the taste of the Domino’s ice creams are very very good. I take 3 …
SPAM Turkey Meat
I never really enjoyed eating “SPAM” products. This is because the first memory I have of a SPAM ready to cook canned goods was that the processed meat was so salty. It tasted so bad in my mouth that I practically have to eat a lot of bread with …
Little Debbie Nutty Bars
Little Debbie Nutty Bars make for a crunchy and tasty snack once and awhile. I like how the peanut butter has a good, authentic flavor to it and how well it tastes on top of the wafer bars. The combination is certainly a delightful one! I would like to …
Natures Place Organic California Raisins
My favorite raisins to snack on are the Nature’s Place Organic California Raisins. I think these raisins because there are not preservatives or chemicals in them at all and they contain dense potent nutrients in them such as iron, calcium, protein, fiber, potassium, and natural sugars. I also like …
Jamaican Patties snack
Jamaican patties are the best snacks ever; they are very tasty, yummy and unique as well. There are only two known brands in the country or Manila area that sells Jamaican Patties and that is the Royal Caribbean Patties and the Jamaican Patties. Well, between the two, I choose …
Bel Air Mega Sub
Bel Air’s deli has a bunch of different sandwiches to choose from, but their granddaddy has to be their Mega Sub. This thing is positively huge, and it is definitely far more than one person can eat, or at least, that’s my take on it. For it …
Chick-fil-A Icedream
Icedream is simply the name that Chick-fil-A gives to its ice cream. It is indeed a dream though! The flavor of the vanilla ice cream is quite spectacular. The vanilla flavor is rich and the texture creamy - each lick is a real taste sensation! Although I cannot say …
Grace Sliced Chicken Bologna
The company “Grace Foods” has been a trusted Jamaican company for a very long time, and one of their products that I like is the Grace Chicken Bologna. I used to take this particular brand of bologna for granted some years ago, until very recently we couldn’t afford to …
Iceland Walnut Layer Cake
I have been checking out Iceland lately as I have found some good bargains there and they have a good selection of sweet foods. This walnut layer cake only cost me £1 and I thought it was of a very reasonable quality and I have really enjoyed it …
