Nutella Hazelnut Spread
I’m not really a fan of spreads. I’d prefer to eat bread as it is or toast it in the oven with butter. But with Nutella, I really can’t resist it. My whole family loved it, so we always have Nutella in our house. It has a natural taste …

Ben & Jerry’s Single Size Ice Cream

Folger’s Vanilla Biscotti Coffee
Without fail, I begin each day with a hot cup of coffee. Over the years I’ve tried countless varieties and Folger’s Vanilla Biscotti is one of the best.

Gossner Foods: Premium Gosner Milk
I tried this milk one day when spotting it at my neighborhood dollar tree. I’d heard about this brand of milk from my mother who simply loves it. I never really understood her infatuation with this milk, especially since she usually buys soymilk. But as I always say, I …
Subway Green Tea (with honey)

Sans Souci Dark Chocolate & Jelly Bean Eggs
What a great idea for Easter - two dark chocolate eggs (2″ tall) filled with colorful jelly beans. These eggs are available from Chocolate.com for $18. They come in a white box that looks somewhat like those carryout boxes at Chinese restaurants; when you open the box, the eggs …
A&W Teen Burger
I don’t usually like the bigger burgers that the fast food chains offer, like McDonald’s Big Mac or the Burger King Whopper, not that they’re not good, but they’re just so big that I often opt for a smaller version of those burgers, but I don’t do this with …

Mrs. Freshley’s Peach Pie
I did not care for Mrs. Freshley’s Peach Pie all that much. The reason that I did not care for it is because the peach flavor was not what I was expecting. Although I am really not all that crazy about peaches, I do enjoy having them once and …

Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Peanut Butter Cup
I must say, compared to the double chocolate and Oreo varieties, this Jell-o No Bake Desserts - Peanut Butter Cup really turned out to be quite the disappointment, even more so than the no-bake cheesecake varieties. The reason I found this product to be disappointing is because there was …

Although the product is not (yet) available in my home state, I was able to obtain some while on a recent trip to Florida. I purchased all three flavors: spice, …
Squirt Soda
Squirt Soda is like cheap versions of Mountain Dew, only without the caffeine, and 7-Up, only without the clean crisp taste. I’ve never liked Squirt Soda. We used to buy it from time to time because it was inexpensive, but I’ve never liked it. Finally, I …

Funchum Juice Drink
Widely regarded as the nations favorite juice drink, Funchum is a class on its own when it comes to the taste of their products. It has a different feel to its drink than with other brands which distinguished them more differently than your regular brand. It quickly relieves me …
Purity Instant Oatmeal
I bought this oatmeal in a dollar store. After all, it was just oatmeal, right? I mean, how bad can instant oatmeal be?

St. Mary’s Banana Chips
I have loved banana chips ever since I was a little girl. However, the thing I didn’t like about especially the Chippies brand which people would buy for me sometimes was that the chips tended to be a bit crude and tough. SO they tasted alright, but it was …
Tropicana Pure Premium Orange Juice - some pulp
I have to say, after trying so many different brands of orange juices, this is definitely the best tasting, most natural brand and my go to brand. It seems to run a little but pricier than other brands of orange juice in the store, however there are often …
Hormel Natural Choice Carved Chicken Breast
