Australian Harvest Rolled Oats
I never really liked eating oats because it tasted just like flour cooked in water. But that was when I’ve not yet discovered that there is another kind of oat which tastes much better. Well the oats I used to hate are the instant oats. But when I tried …
Kroger Toasted Oats
Kroger Toasted Oats cereal is based off of the General Mills Cheerios product. It is, however, superior to the General Mills cereal, I think. Much like how the Kroger’s version of the Honey Nut Cheerios is crunchier than the General Mills version, the Kroger version of Cheerios is crunchier …
Sweet Cane Granulated Sugar
I love to bake and I used to buy the smaller packages of granulated sugar (or white sugar as it is also called) for a while. I realized I was baking a lot and was going through the small packages of granulated sugar like they were nothing and so …
Starbucks Treat Receipts
If you are a fan of Starbucks just like I am, than I am sure you have heard of Starbucks treat receipts, a promotion that they typically run through part of the summer. What it is is you purchase a beverage before 2:00p.m. you can bring back your receipt …
Mrs. Freshley’s Blueberry Cake Donuts
I was disappointed with Mrs. Freshley’s Blueberry Cake Donuts. I had hoped that the blueberry donut would be as soft and flavorful as the blueberry muffins made by Mrs. Freshley’s, but what I found is a donut that really does not have a whole lot of blueberry flavor to …
Nescafe Mocha Canned Drink
A few days ago, I tasted another brand of mocha canned drink. I thought I’d make a comparison with the Nescafe Mocha canned drink to see which is a better option.
In terms of taste, I must say that the other one from Boncafe taste much better and richer. Although …
Cherry Lime-ade Margaritas
If you like frozen drinks, you will really get a kick out of this homemade frozen treat. The recipe calls for a small jar of maraschino cherries, some tequila or rum (whichever you choose), and a small can of frozen limeade, which you can find in your …
Great Value Ripple Cut Potato Chips
Great Value Ripple Cut potato chips are specifically designed for dipping, and they work great. The rippled surface holds more dip than regular chips, which enhances the taste. Even the runny types of dip stay on pretty well. The chips are thick, so they do not easily break or …
Sargento Grated Parmesan & Romano Cheese
Sargento Grated Parmesan & Romano Cheese goes wonderfully on pasta dishes. Regardless of what kind of pasta I am having, I add a hearty amount of this grated cheese and boy does it ever deliver flavor to my pasta meal! I love the blend of Parmesan and Romano cheeses …
Pepsi Throwback
Ah the glories of the soft drink known as Pepsi. Back in the early 90’s,there was Crystal Pepsi which was as clear as water, no artificial coloring was added to it. Then along came Cherry Pepsi. Then in the early 2000’s, Pepsi with lime hit the scene. The newest …
Carolina Gold Parboiled Rice

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 …
Kellogg’s Fiber Plus Antioxidants Chewy Bars
Any food that has the words fiber and antioxidants in the title is something that I normally would never buy. It is not that I don’t care about nutrition, or that I don’t eat foods with fiber and antioxidants, it is just that I get those ingredients from healthy …
Kellogg’s Corn Flakes breakfast cereal
It probably sounds fairly cliched to say it, but sometimes I find that the original really is the best, and that is most definitely the case when it comes to corn flakes. Although I have often been quite favourably impressed by the supermarket own brands, none of them has …
Mixed Sushi
I really love Japanese food and I can say I am an addict in eating sushi I love it so much because for me it is a complete meal. I love the distinct taste it has. I also admire how they make it because out of simple ingredients the …
Voortman Coconut Cookies
I am not a big fan of using coconut for cooking nor do I like to eat raw coconut as a snack but I love sweets made with toasted dry coconut shreds or bits.
There is just something amazing about the aroma of toasted coconut and the chewy texture and …
Magnolia Powdered Calamansi Juice
The new Magnolia Calamansi (Philippine Lemon) powdered juice that comes in a pack is really a good alternative to bottled juices (ready to drink). I bought one pack good for one liter a while ago in a drugstore, with mini supermarket on my way to work and one pack …

Sue Bee Organic Honey
Honey has lots of health benefits though it can increase your appetite. I sometimes include one teaspoon of honey when I drink milk. I use this a substitute for sugar because it is healthy and has good effects especially to the throat. I was in search of organic honey …
Parmalat Coppa Malù
Lately I’ve realized that I adore pudding especially chocolate one. I’ve tried so many different ones and I even make it by myself at home and I add more chocolate in it, when it melts the pudding is really great, like hot chocolate, but bought pudding is really something …
Little Debbie Fancy Cakes
I find Little Debbie Fancy Cakes to be alright, although really, nothing special. They certainly do appear fancy and live up to their name, but underneath the fancy name this cake is really nothing more than a lot of sugar and frosting. There is white cake too, and yes, …
Jell-o Pudding - Vanilla
Jell-o Pudding - Vanilla is not quite as good and delicious as the instant boxed pudding variety, although I still enjoyed my purchase of it. I still found the vanilla flavor to be relatively rich and tasty, and the texture of the pudding, creamy and smooth. The three pack …
Goya Cookies and Cream Bar
I remember I made a review about Hershey Cookies and Cream Bar before; Goya Cookies and cream is the local brand that I was talking about on that review. I tried this one first before Hershey comes out with its own Cookies and Cream flavor. Goya chocolate Cookies and …
Iced Latte Coffee Drink
The Cold Brewed Vanilla Latte at Seattle’s Best coffee shop is simply the best cold coffee drink around. I was extremely impressed with the smoothness of this drink compared with a similar iced vanilla latte at Starbucks. The Cold-Brewing technique makes a much better drink than the way Starbucks …
Albertsons Complete Pancake Mix
Albertsons Complete Pancake Mix is kind of thin mix which requires larger quantity of powder for making pan cakes. This is the pancake mix that comes from Albertsons itself and comes in a bulkier pack than other brands. The price is no high. Albertsons Complete Pancake mix was got …
Mrs. Freshley’s Jelly Swirl Honey Bun
I think I prefer Mrs. Freshley’s Jelly Swirl Honey Bun to the plain honey bun variety because I like that there are more flavors to be tasted and enjoyed than with a typical honey bun. Unfortunately, this version of the honey bun also happens to be even sweeter, so …
Payless Pancit Shanghai (Oriental Chicken Flavor)
I’ve been looking for some other alternative to the instant noodle packs I’m used to buying for emergency food. What used to cost Php5 per pack of instant noodles is now more than Php8. It’s not that much really but if you’re trying to live on a budget, …

Slimfit Tropical Fruit Powdered Drink
A lot of slimming products in the market are quite competing with one another with claims like ‘fastest fat burner’ or ‘contains 100% L-Carnitine’. However, my mom recommended Slimfit for me. It doesn’t sound popular in the market nowadays but I find it very effective.
I was having a hard …
Chocapic cereals
This chocolate cereals, from the company Nestle, are known as cereals for kids, but I enjoy them too even if I’m an adult.
I like their taste a lot, as they have a strong chocolate taste. When eaten with cold milk they keep crispy for a while. However, when I …
Pringles
Pringles is my favorite chips. They taste great. It’s true about once you pop you just can’t stop. I almost always eat the whole thing of pringles. They have so many different flavors. I like almost all of them. My favorite kinds are the regular, sour cream and onion, …
King Cobra 40oz Malt Liqour
King Cobra is one of my least favorite 40oz beers. The bottle that King Cobra comes in is nice. I only had King Cobra a couple times in my life and it was not a very good experience. One time I threw up and the other I time I didn’t …
Hershey’s Full Size Variety Pack: 30 count candy bars
I love chocolate. I love candy. I love it all probably too much, but I’ve grown up with a nice chocolate thumb. However, an individual candy bar is sky high in price now, and my love of the rich chocolate anything has to be tempered by …
Krusteaz Classic Pound Cake Mix
Krusteaz Classic Pound Cake Mix is not something I will purchase again. The reason is, it just does not taste that much better than the pound cake I purchase already made in the grocery store. Why should I go through the trouble of making my own pound cake from …

Quiznos Sandwich Shops
I love to eat soup and sandwiches. There is nothing like taking a bite of a sandwich and then a sip of soup! I discovered Quiznos a few years back in North Carolina. Little did I know that I was starting an addiction (just kidding). The sandwiches are amazing …
Smirnoff Ice-Most disgusting alcohol beverage ever
I remembered when smirnoff Ice just came out in my country, They spent massive amounts of money promoting their product. Soon it was the crave in all the parties, clubs and a prefered drink all together. But that was before people started to actually taste it rather than gulp …
Safeway Select Garlic Chicken Ultra Thin Crust Pizza
I was somewhat hesitant to purchase the Safeway Select Garlic Chicken Ultra Thin Crust Pizza. Although I most certainly like garlic and while I also enjoy chicken, I wasn’t very sure if I would like the two together on this pizza. It turned out though that I didn’t have …
Kroger Mac N’ Cheese
One of the best cures that I’ve found for a hangover is the carb and cheese combo found in a box of Mac N’ Cheese. It’s cheap, quick and usually does the job, especially with a bottle of any sports drink at it’s side. Because of this …
Monster Hammer Espresso
One of the weird drinks that I have had recently is the Monster Hammer espresso drink. I saw it while I was shopping at Big Lots and it caught my eye. It came in one of these mini cans for only fifty cents. Big lots usually has great …

Pepperidge Farm Roasted Garlic Toast
I can’t tell the difference really between this roasted garlic toast and garlic Texas Toast. Both are basically the same size and the same shape. Both have a garlic flavor to them, and neither really excels above the other in garlic flavor. The roasted garlic toast does seem to …
