Pringles Select Potato Crisps - Sun Dried Tomato
I did not really care all that much for these Pringles Select Potato Crisps Sun Dried Tomato. They are most certainly quite crunchy and thick, more so than regular potato chips. The main problem is, there is not a whole lot of delicious flavor to be enjoyed here. There …
Stuffed Pasta Shells Bowl: Amy’s Frozen Dinner
I am so excited to review this Amy’s meal because it is hands down my most favorite frozen dinner anywhere. When I eat the Stuffed Pasta Shells Bowl I literally can not help but moaning in delight at how good it tasted. It is so perfect because the shells …
Happy Harvest Kidney Beans
I decided to make chili again last week and, needing some kidney beans to go into it, I ended up running to the store.
Because I didn’t want to spend too much money (chili is a great way to keep the food budget under control because you can make a …
Belvita Kleija Biscuits with Cardamom
I am going to share something really yummy I experienced just recently. Before going any further, let me confess I am highly addicted to tea. Even if someone offers me a cup of tea in the middle of night, I am always ready to it. But I have to …
Caesar’s Chicken Noodles
I go to Trincity Mall quite often and most of the times when I go there I love to have Caesar’s Chicken Noodles. Now Chicken Noodles may not sound like much of a dish or meal but it is good fast food in my opinion.
I first sampled their chicken …
Boost Nutritional Energy Drink
I am very much into health and fitness, and I’m always trying new things. My daughter gave me a can of Boost Nutritional Energy Drink, and now I am hooked. I love Boost, it’s so creamy and tasty. Boost comes in and 8oz can. So far I have only …
Banana Split
Banana Splits are really good. They are a really good dessert even for people who don’t really like bananas. Who would have ever thought that bananas would be good in ice cream? Well they are delicious, they don’t even really taste like bananas when they are in the ice …
Heluva Good Roasted Red Pepper Dip
One thing that my husband likes to pack in his lunch is potato chips. The problem is he likes something to dip them in. Usually he is stuck with mustard, ketchup, or barbeque sauce because thatâ◚¬◞¢s all we have in the house. On occasion I will buy a dill, …
The Co operative Apple and Blackberry Pie
My local Co-operative appears to have an in-store bakery although I know that not all of them do. I was trying to decide which dessert to buy when a lady in a hairnet came out from the back of the shop and put some still warm Apple and …
Dannon light and fit apple pie yogurt
Dannon Light and Fit Apple Pie Yogurt is yogurt that is supposed to taste like apple pie. In my opinion, Dannon Light and Fit Apple Pie Yogurt is really disgusting and tastes nothing like apple pie.There are apple chunks and cinnamon in it, but it tastes spicy and kind …
Silk French Vanilla Soy Creamer
After recently finding Silk Original Creamer and finding that it is a delicious dairy product substitute, I wanted to try some of the other flavors that were offered. I found the French Vanilla flavor and was immediately intrigued by it.
This creamer is basically made with organic soymilk and sweetener, …
Bigelow Green Tea With Pomegranate
I have made this pact to myself that I will try all brands of green tea. Ever since I have made this my drinking ritual, it joys me to find out another brand in the market. Just weeks ago, together when I discovered the brand Celestial Seasonings, I get to …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Cajun Style Chicken & Shrimp
The Café Steamers sounds like a nice concept —“ the steam of the sauce warms up food components above. Some of the varieties sounded very appealing and I wanted to try every one of them. I started with the Cajun Style Chicken & Shrimp. You get …
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 …
The Co-operative Chocolate Sponge Sandwich
This chocolate sponge sandwich from the Co-operative’s own brand is only 70p and, for that price, it tastes pretty good. It is obvious not a gourmet sponge cake and I find that there is not too much in it, but it was moist and tasted nice and chocolatey …
Breyers Chocolate Crackle
Breyers Chocolate Crackle definitely appeals to me in this sense: it is an ice cream that sort of alternates between a smooth texture and a crunchy texture. I like an ice cream that does just that because contrasting textures is a quality that I like in an ice cream. …
Starbucks Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha Drink
I am completely addicted to the Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha, currently being marketed as one of Starbucks’ prime winter holiday coffee drinks. First of all, I should tell you that I am a sucker for chocolate beverages. I have been a longstanding fan of the Starbucks original …
Spiech Farms Blueberries
I have never tried fresh blueberries before, so when my wife bought a small pack of them I was rather intrigued. I have eaten blueberry pie, waffles, jelly and all that, but not fresh berries. The blueberries were sold in a 4.4 oz clear plastic box. They were a …
Charlie’s Grind and Grill’s Angus Philly Cheese Steak sandwich
I have been frequenting Charlie’s Grill quite a bit. I have tried their Angus burger and Buffalo Wings, but I have yet to try their famous Philly Cheese steak sandwich.
I have heard a lot of raves about this, but everytime I go to Charlie’s I would always order my …
Great Value Spinach Artichoke Dip
When family and friends come over for a visit and will be staying for a little bit, I like to have a nice variety of snacks in the house for them to enjoy. Tortilla chips is one of those snacks that goes over well with a lot of people …
Dole Mixed Fruit in Light Syrup (in Jars)
My aunt just got home from the US and brought home some of these Dole All-Natural Fruit in Light Syrup. It’s in a plastic jar of 695 grams of fruit slices. She gave us two different flavors, Mixed Fruit in Light Syrup and Sliced Peaches in …
Hormel Compleats
Hormel Compleats are a delicious tasty portion controlled meal. Las month I purchased three different varieties; Meatloaf and Vegetables, Sliced Roast Beef with with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, and Sirloin Beef Tips with Potatoes and Gravy.
I was hesitant about the quality of premade meals at first, but thse …
X-bar Chocolate
The X-bar is a chocolate bar that was recently brought out in Trinidad. It is like an imitation of the well known Snickers chocolate bar but it is locally made and also a cheaper alternative.
When I first saw these on the shelves I decided to give it a try, …
Barber Foods Kiev Stuffed Chicken Breasts
I’ve tried many stuffed chicken breasts, but I never had the opportunity to try the ones with the butter in them. I wasn’t sure about getting more than one box of the Barber Foods Kiev stuffed chicken breasts because not all garlic butter is good butter.
I put the chicken …
Morning Star Garden Veggie Patties
When I first became a vegetarian I was slightly unsure as to what I really wanted to be eating, but I was recommended Morning Star products by various of my friends so I decided to try them out, and they turned out to work …
Knorr Italian Sides Four Cheese Bow Tie
Creamy and cheesy are the words that come to mind when I think of what this Italian Side is like from Knorr. Cheese is something that I probably eat too much of, but it sure tastes good, and this Italian Side is another thing that sure tastes good! The …
Healthy Choice Café Steamers Balsamic Garlic Chicken
I’ve tried a lot of the Café Steamers but this is the first Mediterranean Café Steamer I purchased. I’ve tried Healthy Choice’s Mediterranean Pasta from their All Natural line and wasn’t too happy with it. But this steamer had a lot of components I liked, such as …
Tang Orange Juice Drink
Drinking juice instead of softdrinks or sodas is a good and healthy option. I know that sometimes we are getting tired of drinking water. But since drinking enough fluids everyday is very important, a juice drink may be one of good choices. When it comes to powdered juice drinks, …
Mama Cozzi Garlic Texas Toast
There is a store not too far from my house named Aldi. This store carries mainly generic brands of food items that are modeled after or resemble products manufactured by big name, national or regional companies. Everything at this store is sold generally at or below the prices found …
Jacquot Truffles
I bought a small box of Jacquot Truffles yesterday. Imported from France, these were supposed to be good! I couldn’t wait to get home and try them. Unfortunately, I was in for a disappointment: when I opened the nice golden box and the protective pouch inside, instead of truffles …
Bumble Bee Tuna
This is by far the best canned tuna fish I have ever purchased. It’s on the expensive side — the can I have is stamped $1.98, but I’m sure I didn’t pay that much. You can often get it on sale for $1.00 to $1.25 a can, which isn’t …
Jolly Rancher Hard Candy (Blue Raspberry)
Last week, I had heard one of my friends talking about how great Jolly Rancher Hard Candies tasted, and how cheap they were, so what I ended up doing was buying one of them for myself especially when I found out that the candies were indeed cheap. Out of …
Stouffers Thai Ginger Beef frozen dinner
I wanted a Chinese meal, but was too tired to cook, so I bought Stouffers Thai Ginger Beef dinner in a 250gram box. As always I looked for the Heart & Stroke Health Check sign, and it was right there on the box! I always try and watch what …
Philippine Dried Mango
I was never really big on dried food–and still not to be honest–until I had the opportunity to try the Philippine dried mango. I found it on a trip to super Wal-Mart which turned out to be an impulsive buy. I don’t like dried fruit, but I like mango.
The …
Nescafe Clasico Instant Coffee
Nescafe Clasico Instant Coffee
Everyone who knows me knows that I love coffee and I am very choosey about it. I was never a fan of instant coffee but I am a fan of a good bargain.
I signed up for a free sample of Nescafe and a coupon thinking …
Bama Grape Jam
Bama Grape Jam is one of the cheapest grape jams I’ve come across. A thirty-two ounce jar of the grape jam costs me under one dollar and seventy cents. It’s a very low priced grape jam and it’s also a fairly tasty grape jam for that amount of money. …
Mrs. Freshley’s Butterhorn Danish
I found Mrs. Freshley’s Butterhorn Danish to be a rather sweet treat to have, although aside from the sweet flavor of sugar and butter, there really is nothing else to this snack to enjoy. I think this is, perhaps, one of the sweetest and richest danishes that I have …
Haagen-Dazs Ice Cream Bars
Haagen-Dazs is one of the most well known names in the ice cream business, and they are know to be one of the best. I admit to being one of their fans.
Though these treats are very expensive, I pamper myself sometimes by purchasing a package of their ice …
Saint Orange Juice
Among the regular juice that I buy in the market, most of them are just watery and with artificial in flavor. But I happen to pass by Hypercity and saw a juice which claims 100 percent orange juice without added sugar or preservatives and that is why I bought …
TGI Friday’s Tostado Nachos
My review of this appetizer can be summed up in these words —“ what a greasy mess! The only time a dish like this would taste good is if you’re drunk, which I don’t recommend (getting drunk or ordering this dish). I ordered this appetizer because I’m …
Stouffers Macaroni and Cheese
I am a true macaroni and cheese lover. I am one of those people who actually orders it at restaurants. It seems silly but each version is a little different. What type of cheese will it have, will it have bacon or ham in it, these …
Contessa Green Cuisine Meals
While I like the concept behind Contessa Green Cuisine meals; make a frozen food product while working to reduce pollution, I have to say I found myself unimpressed when I had one of the dinners last night.
I had the Chicken Stir Fry and it had zero taste. It was …
Life Savers Jelly Bean Candy
I purchased the lifesavers brand jelly beans for my daughter’s easter egg hunt last weekend. I was pleasantly surprised by this candy. I like life savers and have eaten them for 20 years but my chief complaint with them is how sticky and messy they are. …
Quaker oat meal
I am not getting any younger that’s why I monitor every food that eat. I don’t eat a full meal breakfast in the morning, only 1 cup of coffee and Quaker oat meal.
What’s in Quaker oat meal that I like most? It help to lower my bad cholesterol and …
Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh - Turkey
Since I’ve had some good luck with other new Oscar Mayer products, when I saw their new Deli Fresh, I decided to give it a try, too. I’m a turkey lover, so selected the oven roasted turkey breast (shaved).
It comes in a rectangular plastic container that is touted …
Canadian Classic Cigarette Tobacco
Today’s economic conditions have led most of us to make drastic changes in our spending habits and cut down most of the things that we consider luxury. I have been smoker since my teenager years and since the cigarettes are one of the things skyrocketed in price, I …
Camel Signature Blends: Infused
Infused was the first of the Camel Signature Blends that I decided to give a try. It has a lighter taste than the Robust or the normal Camel filters. The taste is one that is difficult to describe, but essentially it is a lighter Camel with a …
Skinny Cow Fudge Bars
I am always on the lookout for a bargain, and I am always on the lookout for low calorie snacks! When I visited my local grocery store, and saw Skinny Cow Fudge Bars on sale for only $4Cdn for 7 bars, I bought them.
These bars are sweetened with Splenda …
Algida Carte d’Or Chocolate with orange
Algida always has great ice creams and they are not very expensive, the price goes 3.50 Euro to 5 Euro. Sometimes I even manage to find them for 2.80 Euro when they are on discount but that’s not very often. I am talking about 500g containers of regular Algida …
