Hunts Snack Pack Pudding
I am both in awe and very frightened of this product. It is a dairy product you do not need to refrigerate. Why doesn’t it need to be refrigerated? I have no idea but I assume it means they did something to process it to make it …
Smucker’s Uncrustables
I have recently decided to save money by taking my own lunch to work. My biggest problem is getting up early enough to pack a lunch. My solution was to buy prepackaged portions. This is easy enough for chips and desserts, but sandwiches are harder to …

Pringles Sour Cream & Onion Super Stack
I really like Pringles. I love to put them inside my sandwiches or eat them along with a sandwich. The plain pringles are a good chip, but nothing fancy. But I recently got a container of sour cream & onion Pringles. I am a huge …
Pillsbury Biscuits - Buttermilk
This is another product that has long been in use in my household — Pillsbury Biscuits - Buttermilk. Nowadays, I usually buy the value pack of four rolls. It’s still available as individual units that equal about 12 biscuits, and it’s also sold in a smaller, single-help …
Crystal Canyon Sparkling Apple-Pear
The label on this delicious beverage describes it as appropriate for a “champagne occasion — without the alcohol.” As I write this, my better half is scarfing down a saucer of pear wedges over which he has poured a shot of this sparkling treat, and he …
7 Up
7 up is a cool drink which is which has no colors and it is transparent. This drink is also cool and tasty but it only suits the elders and not the kids because this drink has some strong gases and also contains some chemicals. But the …

Ziyad Brand Hummus Tahini
I love hummus, and I decided to try out a new store brand since it was on clearance: Ziyad Brand. I bought the one in the yellow can labeled “Ziyad Brand Hummus Tahini,” and I wasn’t expecting too much from clearance hummus in a can. I was pleasantly surprised.
What’s …
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 …
Betty Crocker Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Betty Crocker is a brand name that I know and trust, but they really dropped the ball with their Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes.
First, they are very high in sodium and they contain MSG (monosodium glutamate, which has been connected to migraine headaches and other health problems). …

Nabisco Oreo Cookies
Nabisco Oreo Cookies are a tradition. They are awesome cookies for child and adult alike, but when you’re young, these treats are tops. These chocolate sandwich cookies filled with a creamy icing center are pure temptation. Okay, I’m an adult, and I still eat them as …
Eating Right Cranberry Almond Bran Cereal
This cereal is good, but it’s just too pricey to purchase unless it’s on sale or there is a coupon for it. It only comes in a thirteen ounce box and Tom Thumb, the only place I’ve seen it, wants over three dollars and fifty cents for a box. …

Nestle Pure Life Purified Water
I have tried almost every type of bottled water out there, at least the inexpensive ones. When I drink bottled water I look for one of two things. I either want a water that has somewhat of a processed taste. This means that I can actually taste that it …
Oishi Pillows Chocolate Flavor

Covo Cookies Chocolate
I like chocolate chips cookies, sometimes I make them myself but then I usually make a bunch of them and that means putting some weight on. So although it is much cheaper to make them than to buy them I started buying them. For 1E I can make at …
Choc o’lait
My favourite drinking chocolate is Choc o’lait and it is to die for. It has a rich chocolate flavour that you would swear goes straight to your hips and thighs but is actually 99%fat free. In fact there are just 42 calories or 175 kilojules in a cup …
Banquet Chicken Nuggets Frozen Dinner
I’ve tried one or two Banquet frozen dinners over the past couple of years, and I always thought they were just okay. Given that they’re usually less than $2.00 per single-serving box, and when they’re on sale they’re about a dollar, I figured you get what you pay for …
Hany Milk Chocolate
Hany is one of my favorite chocolate bars. It is not just sweet, what I like about Hany is, it tastes like ChocNut, a perfect combination of peanut and chocolate. So, if you are looking for something sweet with a different twist, go to the nearest store and grab …
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 …

Innocent Smoothies
Although I generally try to eat pretty healthily - I am a fan of jacket potatoes, brown bread, muesli, dairy products - I know I do not eat enough fruit and vegetables. If I am peckish, I do not feel like eating an apple and so I would …
Annie’s Homegrown Gluten Free Macaroni and Cheese
When it comes to pasta, I am pretty particular but I have to say that this product is a good one. The noodles when cooked right are soft. They need to be salted or they are tasteless but that is the same with most pastas. Also, if you overcook …
Diet Cheerwine
I have loved the taste of cheerwine since I was a small child. I went grocery shopping last night and came across diet cheerwine. I had never seen diet cheerwine before and decided to give it a try. In my opinion the diet version is just as good as …

St. Louis Bread Company Smoked Ham and Swiss Cafe Sandwich

Alo Youth Aloe Vera Drink
I strode through the dirks section of the supermarket and searched for some drinks to help me cleanse my body and make it fit at the same time. Of course, I have tried a lot of drinks which were high in fiber and L-Carnitine for body slimming, yet the …
Tang Orange Mango Powdered Juice Drink
I love trying out combo fruit juices because it is like tasting various fruits at the same time. There has not been a powdered version for “Four Seasons” however Tang has released a series of what they called “combo” which is a powdered combination of two fruits. After I …
Meat Lovers Pizza from Dominos
The Meat Lovers Pizza that arrived from Dominoes wasn’t exactly what I was expecting. I think that I was hoping for a lot more meat, and they just didn’t deliver on that promise. The pizza itself arrived hot and smelling strongly of pizza sauce, but there were not enough …
Ferrero Rocher hazelnut chocolate
Ferrero Rocher hazelnut chocolate was my choice of candy for conducting an inexpensive treat. This is a perfect economic candy which is high in quality and rich in its contents. Ferrero Rocher is looking great in its round shape and small pieces of nuts embedded in dark chocolate. And …

Ma Mon Luk’s Signature Asado Siopao
It was the Chinese New year, but my husband and I still needed to go out for business reasons. When we were cruising along Quezon Avenue, we passed by a restaurant with loud noises coming from the inside. Apparently there was a dragon dance and the place was very …
Dill Pickles
There are big and small evils in this world. One of the small but unavoidable evils are Dill Pickles In Sandwiches. I hate dill pickles to begin with, and I especially detest them in sandwiches. They taste sour. They make my face twist. They also have this wicked tendency …
Kashi GoLean Chewy Cookies and Cream Protein and Fiber Bar
Kashi often makes good and healthy cereals and snacks. When I bought this product, I was looking for something that would taste indulgent and still be healthful.

Silver Palate Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing is the perfect complement for a mixed salad of lettuce, red cabbage, radishes, carrots and tomatoes. However, persons who have made the acquaintance of this delicious salad topper may wish to know some basics about the processing of the product.
Even though …
Krusteaz Lemon Bar Mix
Krusteaz Lemon Bar Mix produces some pretty scrumptious lemon bars! The lemon flavor is intensely sweet, terrifically tangy and oh so moist! Each bite I take energies my taste buds and really sets them ablaze. This lemon flavor will definitely not go unnoticed! I also really like how soft …
Campbell’s Chunky Jazzy Jambalaya soup
Continuing onward with my daily lunchtime soup odyssey, we have the next big member in the Campbell’s Chunky “starting line” of soups (AKA the official soup of the NFL, whatever the heck that means.) This time up, I’ve got in the lunch pail Campbell’s Chunky Soup Jazzy Jambalaya, our …
Knorr Orange Soup
I bought Knorr Orange Soup at the same time I purchased Knorr Red Soup. Both were on sale for $1.99 at my local grocery store, and I have to say the sight of those fresh spring carrots on the front of the box of Orange Soup looked very appealing.
I …
Kraft Macaroni and Cheese
Here I’m talking about good old in the box boil it and make it Kraft Mac and Cheese. There really isn’t any other kind — don’t even talk to me about the microwaveable kind, which is really a bit nasty if you ask me. This original macaroni and …
