I made a grilled lemon herb chicken over angel hair pasta. I was a bit apprehensive because sauces made with wine that are already on the shelf have a different flavor than sauces made with fresh wine. In any case, I used this sauce after I …
Nestle Mini Marshmallows Hot Cocoa Mix
For hot cocoa lovers, Nestle Mini Marshmallows Hot Cocoa Mix with Rich Chocolate Flavor is a winner.

It is 99.9% caffeine free …

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 …

Twix Topix Creamy Caramel (waffle)
Most people I ever discussed these “topix” with, liked —“ or, in some cases, disliked - the original Twix because of its gooey caramel and crumbling biscuit filling. It was —“ still is - achingly sweet and it felt like it would take a week to brush it off the …
Irn Bru by Barr (a Scottish soda import)
Today I got to experience a soft drink from Scotland while having lunch at a new British-styled Fish and Chips shop. I already had English tea, but wanted something more. This particular brand was the only thing they had that was diet. They carry no products that originate in …
Russell Stover Marshmallow & Caramel heart
One of the many Valentine’s Day treats on sale in 2010 is the Russell Stover Marshmallow & Caramel heart. I purchased this for 59 cents the other day. For me, that is a high price, but sometimes I think we need to treat ourselves. Russell Stover …

Stouffer’s Chicken Carbonara
Stouffer’s Chicken Carbonara is quite a delicious meal that is even a little filling, and that is pretty surprising since Stouffer’s meals generally do not fill me up too well and I have to prepare additional food as a result to go with the meal and make it more …
Hostess Cupcakes
I find Hostess Cupcakes to be a positively delightful snack treat to enjoy from time to time. The chocolate cake and the chocolate frosting both have a rich and exciting flavor and the creme that is both on the top and in the middle is equally rich and exciting. …
Apple Jacks Cereal Straws
Apple Jacks Cereal Straws left an unpleasant taste in my mouth. Normally I enjoy the taste of cinnamon but I found these to be very unpleasant. I couldn’t eat more than the one and I forced myself to finish that one. I was surprised they didn’t taste better as …
Schogetten Dark Chocolate
I picked up this Schogetten Dark Chocolate today in Lidl for just 65p for 100g box. I usually have milk chocolate but I just fancied this. Lidl is a bargain supermarket in the UK and a lot of their products are unknown foreign brands like this one, …
Willy Wonka SweeTarts Candy

Chicago Meat House Ground Hamburger
Product Description: Frozen one pound pack of ground hamburger (passed on to me from my grandmother, who received it from a friend but doesn’t eat burger).
What I liked about this product: Well, it was free (for me at least) so, based on that, it didn’t have to do too …
Little Debbie Cherry Cordials
I find these Little Debbie Cherry Cordials to be decent, although nothing truly incredible. This snack consists of vanilla cookies that are coated in chocolate fudge and have cherry creme in the middle. Now the reason I simply consider these cookies to be decent and nothing more is because …
Fry Krisp Krispy Country Chicken Mix
I love krispy fried chicken. For me, that is so much better than the bread crumb fried chicken version. But, I am a little picky about the type of krispy. I do not like the Colonel Sanders “chunky” krispy fried chicken; I just look for something …
Wendy’s - Double Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe
Wendy’s - Double Jr. Cheeseburger Deluxe is a burger that is a little on the small size in terms of its burger patties, but it can still be filling if you add something to go along with it, like say chili or a baked potato. That is what I …

Thai & Co. Restaurant and Bar London
I’ve been wanting to try this restaurant for a while. From the outside it looks smart, clean and tasteful, with its wooden floors and attractive oriental designs. It has a very clean-cut and modern feel to it, and it has a sense of minimalism, which immediately makes …
Purefoods Corned Beef
I rarely eat corned beef because they have a taste that is not appealing to me, sometimes I try this canned beef but I end up losing my appetite because most of canned beef in the market today are coarse and dry. I like canned tuna more than corned …
Valley View Garlic Mashed Potatoes
We had steak last night and, to go with it, made some garlic mashed potatoes from the brand Valley View; a brand I believe we ended up buying at our local Aldi store or some other discount grocer.
I have had other products from Valley View with some mixed results …

Although I am not a big fan of chocolate with strawberries about a week ago I saw this all new collection of Mikado Summer Edition chocolates and I bought all three of them. The first 2 were apricot and cream and lime and cream and I was expecting the …
Balsamic Vinegar de Modena
I first heard of balsamic vinegar 4 years ago while watching a TV cooking program which presented a Greek salad.
I was intrigued by the name since balsamic in my mind could be associated with something soothing.
I am not a particular fan of salads in general and of vinegar in …
Honey bunches of oats
Unlike any other cereal I have ever tasted. I really like honey bunches of oats cereal. It has just the right amount of different ingredient. Not too much of something and not too little of something. Everything goes well together in the cereal. The clusters and the flakes, everything …
Century Corned Tuna
Century corned tuna is the latest canned goods that I greatly devoured right now, because of its taste and health benefits.

…
Ricotta Alte Cime

Nature’s Nectar 100% Juice Mango Tangerine
One-hundred percent fruit juice isn’t always priced at what I consider to be an affordable amount of money. Without sales or coupons, juice that isn’t diluted with water generally runs for over three dollars. It’s for that reason that when I came across the Nature’s Nectar brand of mango …
Post-Honey Roasted Honey Bunches of Oats Cereal
Whether early in the morning for breakfast, mid-day or at night, this is one of the better cereals off the shelf. It’s Nice & Crunchy. I can’t decide which is better…the crunchy flakes or the taste of honey that is so pronounced you can’t miss. It doesn’t matter if …
Quiznos Meatball Sub
For lunch today I had a meatball sub from quiznos for lunch and I have to say I was pretty disappointed in the subs quality. I get meatball subs from Subway quite often and thought that one from quiznos would be just as good if not better. The Quiznos …
Stouffer’s Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta

Berry Burst Ice Cream Oreos
Normally, I have been against the changes that have been made with the beloved Oreo cookie. But, there was no way I couldn’t try the new berry burst ice cream flavor Oreos. They were a refreshing change from the usual Oreo flavors that I haven’t enjoyed. It is a …
Bali’s Best Latte Candy
I bought this candy at an Asian food store in Seattle, Washington. The candy is labeled as “latte candy”, and I was curious as to whether it would taste good or not because I have never drank any lattes. At first the taste was surprising, but it’s really good!
Each …
PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter with premium chocolate
Peanut butter is an essential part of my life now. Lots of people swear by almond and cashew butters, which are fancier, but I love the classic peanut butter and I don’t think I’ll ever be able to give it up. Powdered peanut butter is still something new to me, …
